Q & A is the 13th chapter of The Beginning After The End Novel.
Summary[]
A dumbfounded Arthur attempts to turn down Virion, but the elder convinces him otherwise, like that he didn't need to see his parents face-to-face to tell them that he was alive. Afterwards, the two sit down and have a discussion. Virion tells him about mana, explaining the way mana worked, the Deviants, as well has how only certain species could manipulate certain elements, using the elves ability to manipulate plants as an example. Virion then goes on to explain mana beasts, telling Arthur that mana beasts with a rank higher than A-rank had the ability to possess 'wills'. The elder than emphasizes the importance of learning to control his beast will, elucidating that, should he not, it would destroy his body. Arthur reluctantly accepts to be Virion's disciple, and agrees to call him Grandpa. Arthur then goes to sleep.
The next morning, after teasing Tessia, he and getting her to leave the room, he hears the King arguing with Virion, expressing his disapproval towards Arthur's stay in the kingdom. Virion shortly ends the argument, stating it was not up for debate, and the elder along with Arthur and Tessia leave. They make their way to meet someone who Virion refuses to disclose the identity of, Tessia having fallen asleep along the way. When the carriage arrives at its destination, Virion knocks on a door of a hut. An elven elderly lady opens the door, introducing herself to be Rinia Darcassan.
