"There is one man whose magic power is immense, as great as you are, Katsura."

Katsura crossed both hands and tilted her head slightly to the right, "Could that be true?" tanyakanya.

"Do I need to measure again? but it doesn't matter, you haven't seen the demonstration of this device" Arizawa grabbed a shield-shaped badge with a 0 in the middle of it.

"This is a tool that can measure a person's magic level, once this tool is affixed to someone, it will respond by giving a corresponding number on their magic level."

"This tool also serves as a marker that we are from Mato. These badges vary depending on who is wearing them. If we as Mato's founders, this badge will have wings beside it. If the person wearing it is someone other than us, it will only add a ring that surrounds the side of the badge."

"And this badge is now officially given to people who have graduated the magic academy to help them improve their magic even further" arizawa was clear about this badge which is now a marker for all magic users.

Arizawa pointed to the number 0 in the middle of the badge, "For example this is 0, meaning nothing has been detected by this tool yet. As soon as this tool is affixed to someone's body.." Arizawa attached the badge to Suizei's body and the printed number was 6.

"The higher the number, the greater the power" Arizawa retracted the badge she had placed on Suizei's body and made the number on the badge return to 0.

"So the badge only works if it touches someone's body directly, but it doesn't work if it's separate from the user, does it?" review Katsura about the badge.

"Yes right, but these badges can also work by detecting a person's aura or energy. Katsura, use your Golden Orb" Arizawa told Katsura and showed the front of the badge towards Katsura.

"Do I need to do this?" Katsura confirmed once again.

"Just do it."

Katsura closed his eyes and activated the Golden Orb whose aura was very calm so as not to mess up the entire station. A radiant golden aura propagated through the air at the station and finally hit the badge.

The badge reacts and gives the number 7 in Roman numerals, which is VII.

"VIII? why is mine any different than Suizei's?" Katsura asked with a curious face.

"Because we are only tuning to level 6, but your power is too great and surpasses the workings of this tool. As a result this badge gives a level with roman numerals because it cannot be measured by its length."

"The distance between levels with other levels is very far, currently people with level 6 magic only Suizei, Aizo and Hiromi. The rest are below level 5. And you need to know also, the distance from level 6 to VII is very, very far, and so on" explained Arizawa in more detail.

Katsura deactivated his Golden Orb, "Then why do you know the magic level on the planet is on par with me? didn't you just measure my magic level now?" ask again.

"I took a sample from the Embodiment Crystal that is now in the secret room of this station, you coated the Embodiment Crystal with the Golden Orb so that I could measure it."

"And for that planet, I'll show you" after the badge returned to zero, Arizawa set up his projector and again showed the so-called planet as having an oddity.

"Even though the people we sent did not return, but thanks to them I knew that the planet emitted a very large Mana in space, and my projector was able to sense Mana.

Arizawa brought the badge closer to the planet hologram and the number indicator showed the exact same number as Katsura, which is VII.

"seen? he's on par with you, yet we still don't know what that person's intentions are."

Katsura was stunned and surprised to see the same number engraved on the badge, and asked, "So you want me to go there to investigate that person?"

"Yes right, I want you to go there. I'm sure you won't be able to disappear that easily with just what's in space."

Everyone turned around and saw Karma sitting on a table full of games.

"Hey we're not done playing!" yubino said, he was a little upset that his game was being ruffled by Karma.

"Karma? what are you doing here?" ask Arizawa.

"I was just listening to your explanation of the device, but I knew more about the planet" Karma came down from the table and walked over to the planet hologram.

"What is around this planet is not Mana, but Shin" he said so close to the hologram of the planet.

"Shin's? what'sthat?" Suizei was curious and asked.

"Shin is another version of energy or Mana for someone who has surpassed true magic. Why is there another version? since Mana and Shin were very much different, Mana was simply a collection of magic energy that formed invisible particles, whereas Shin was far superior to it."

"Someone who is able to use Shin can manipulate their Shin into whatever they want, they can make a protector or attack with their Shin, he said, Shin was also interconnected with their true magic and their souls."

"To cast true magic, you can use Mana or Shin. If you cast real magic with mana, your stamina will be drained, unlike Shin's. Shin casts out a true magic that is much more powerful, yet can make you die."

Karma touched the hologram, "So if someone wears Shin too much, their soul can be drained away until they die. Of course Shin can be refilled like Mana, but how to get it is not easy" he explained clearly.

"I see, so Shin is just like true magic, but that was just his initial form before Shin was made into a form of magic itself, huh?" chirp Aizo in the middle of the conversation.

"Accordingly, the one around the planet is Shin, so those who cannot sense Shin will think that this is Mana, and they will fall into a trap. In this case, Shin belonging to someone on this planet was able to obliterate something all the way to the core of their soul" Karma responded to Aizo's question.

"Is there any way to avoid not being exposed to his Shin?" ask Katsura.

"Of course, the way is to coat your body with your own Shin, someone like you who has already achieved true magic would have already been able to take Shin out, after all, just focus on bringing out the energy in your soul then Shin will be formed."

"That information is very useful, you are very useful, Karma. Thank you" Arizawa smiled.

Karma turned around and nodded slowly, she was happy at such appreciation.

...****************...

On the other hand, in the J-60 universe, inside a luxurious and elegant kingdom, 6 people were gathering in the main room.

They were all doing their respective activities, with their extremely sinister appearance and their aura suppressing the entire earth, they were Escalivors.

One of the members who was sitting and reading a book according to his book and standing upright, a blue hairy robe with black color waved in the air that blew from one of them.

"Zero has moved, so have we, prepare 'it' now, we will leave today as well" said the man in a calm tone.

The man raised one hand and opened his palm, "Our destiny is changing now, for those who have the power, they are the ones who can change everything" he said seriously, and in the palm of his hand was engraved the number 7.

Seriate...
