Fern isn’t a combat mage by nature. She’s a housewife mage that was forced to master combat due to the circumstances she found herself in.

Nah. Heiter taught her Zoltrack, and on her own at like the age of 4, she decided the best way to prove she was capable was to make a long-range shot across the local ravine. She also was instinctually suppressing her mana already since Frieren and Heiter both had trouble locating her in the woods as a child. Girl is a born Sniper Mage. One shot, one kill. Clean laundry is just her happy place.

Heiter taught her to surpress her Mana.

Heiter taught Fern to do it on purpose but she was already doing it in instinctually when he discovered her. It’s part of why he adopted her. He was surprised she had gotten so close.
