Smart Fan

It was a reaction Luna had never expected. So...he just left? 

Her arms started to feel numb from carrying Ian so she ignored what just happened and walked to the sofa in the living room. She put Ian on it to sit again like in Daniel's house but this time she also sat beside him. 

On the screen of the big television in front of her is White. 

White is holding her mouth with both of her white fluffy paws, her big ocean eyes meet hers, and she figures out in a second why White's like that. 

They both burst out laughing at each other. This house is built with full security features, White being the eyes and the ears of it know what just happened. 

During these years White teaches her what artificial intelligence is and boasts about how high her understanding of human and emotions are. 

Luna also thinks White is just like another human to her. She knows exactly when to show her emotions, like now. 

It took a few minutes for their laughter to settle down. When they finished laughing, Luna asked White to find the mysterious uploader who is nicknamed Blank.

In White's eyes data started to move. Luna always thought that White looks the coolest when she's working. 

When the movements stop, there could be many videos without titles. The thumbnails of the videos only show hands in them. 

But there is a video with a boy whose height looks only a head taller than her. His face couldn't be seen due to a white mask without any holes being worn, covering his full face.

He's also wearing a white suit which perfectly fits him. Just from seeing the photo on the thumbnail, he seems to be in an empty white room.

"I hate people who wear masks." She speaks out of discomfort.

Hearing her whine about the mask White tries to tease her, [What if you have to wear it one day?]

"That's me, not them" Luna argues back which makes White laugh again.

White opens one of the videos on the screen for her to see. As the video started to play, they both could hear a voice and see the hands which had a warm tone in it. 

The voice in the video started to explain what an elementalist is, which element is strong against which and weak against which. It is a pretty informative one but the voice didn't mention much about the shadow element. 

'Is shadow element that rare?' Luna thought in her mind, she knew the percent that shadow told her about but she didn't really calculate it with the world's current population. 

The video ended pretty quickly since one video is only about over three minutes long.

Right after it, another video started to play, showing only the hands and the voice again. This time it was about training one's affinity limit. 

It surprised Luna since she only knows that it can only be increased a little even with many affinity stones. She decided to listen carefully to the voice by backwarding the video to the start.

The voice starts to talk in a calm manner, his hands clasped with one another, "As all of you may know, the greatest fear of an elementalist is knowing the affinity, the limit for them. When they know it, they begin to limit themselves. Increasing with 'affinity stones' being the only solution to break free from it."

His voice silenced for a bit before continuing the latter, " Just go all out." 

The video ended.

What was that? Another person just like Shadow, she thought.

What he said sounds pretty simple but it is a hard task. Going all out with her element, she still doesn't know the full limit of her since she's worried that something might happen and it would attract unwanted attention from the neighborhood. 

She decided that when Shadow comes back home, she will ask… she will just ask him later on.

Finishing the previous video has caught her interest. As she watched the videos one by one, it taught her more and more. The voice's method on how to control the element is much easier than what Shadow has taught her before. 

Even relaxing, the most effective method for regaining the mana which one has lost and they both have different breathing methods on how to relax. 

All the videos only have the voice of his explanations and his slender small hands. Finally, only one video which has been uploaded has his body and face wearing a white mask was the only one left for her to watch. 

The mask has the shape of an oval without any holes for his eyes to be seen. Without a need to see his face, his voice already gives off an aura of a teacher who thinks all the students are equal, a judge who follows the truth rather than money, a person who is surely not related with Outlaw. 

Is it how someone becomes a fan? Her impression of this person has improved a lot after watching all his videos with this one being the last.

Seeing the color of the suit, the mask, and the room he is in being all white, it seems like his favorite color is white, the same as hers. One thing that stands out in the room is his dark brown hair.

The one in the video started to say, " This might be the very last video that I upload and as a farewell present to all my viewers, 'The Blanks' I guess? In your term? Well, back to the topic, it's about being a dual elementalist," at the end of his voice, his hands started to take off each white glove on his hands revealing the skin with warm undertones. 

He put each glove on top of his hands, one in the left started to freeze while the right one started to turn into ashes. 

Luna couldn't see what element was used on the right one, it could be one of the three elements, fire, light, or lightning. What's weird was there's no element spilled, if she tries to do so with her fire element, it would still be possible for some flames to show. 

"If you can figure it out, maybe we can be friends." The video finishes after the words are heard.

She finally understood what this video was meant for. 

A puzzle and a trick to find a dual elementalist who can solve it. And the answer to the puzzle must be the control of the elements. He used both elements, on the other hand, balancing with his ice.

'Don't mess with the smart ones' her lips curled up into a grin. 

Just before she had her smug expression on her, a sudden thought kicked in, 'But I can only use lightning and fire for now so how am I going to do it!' 

That sudden thought makes her depressed once again. She turns and looks at Ian beside her who has been watching her the whole time, he gave her a smile as if he understood her. 

'My baby brother is the best.'
