"Spirit Users, such as Emilia, are people that are contracted with Spirits, and use them in various situations. [...] Unlike Magic users, Spirit Users gather mana from outside their body."

On the other hand, on Pack's page: "Like Beatrice, Pack is also an Artificial Spirit, making him have a terrible mana consumption rate. He used to drain mana from Emilia, who didn't have any use for it until she remembered that she could use magic on her own during the trials, while lying that he was absorbing it from the atmosphere."

How does those two things correspond? I mean, do the Spirits contracted with people always drain mana from their masters? Is it the only source of mana for them? Or they can also drain mana from elsewhere? Does Emilia gather mana from outside her body and then Pack drains that mana from her? Do all the Artificial Spirits consume much mana (much more then normal Spirits)? What do Spirits gain at all when they make a contract with somebody?
