Case 3: Peculiar child.
It has been 6 months since I - Sylvia was born.
Throughout this period, there were a few things that I've co to realize. Firstly, my parents are clingy as hell, they will find every opportunity to jump on and do all the cuddling and kissing as if they were seeing for the first ti in 10 years. I don't hate it though, at least I know they love a lot.
Fortunately, they are the ones leading the entire kingdom, so they can't just hold all day long. When they have work to do, it'll be the maids and my nanny who will take care of . The nanny - Isabella is an old elf who has a few wrinkles on her face, overall, she has a gentle aura. Oh, and apparently, she was the one who took care of my dad as well.
Secondly, I can feel so kind of tangible energy floating all over the air. There are places where the energy is more dense than normal, and there are places where the energy is very thin. Assuming that this is the source of all magic, figuring out how the energy is distributed would be one of the most important things to do.
Thirdly, living creatures that are bigger than ants do not have the energy in them. Turns out all the BS about mana reserve in ani was wrong, you can't stuff energy into your ass when your body is changing constantly, it just doesn't store the energy.
Then raised the question, wouldn't all the mages out there be very dependent on the battlefield if the energy, let's just call it mana, can just run out? They would have to move to a new place to use magic again, how do they counter this?
To find out the answer, we invited the self-proclaid sole goddess of [Aria], Miss Eva to clear out all our doubts. Please, Miss Eva-
[Xx-DarkLordOfTheFla-xX]: Well, it is true that mages are dependent on the battlefield they are in, just as you have noticed. To counter this, they usually find materials that can store a lot of mana, which they then equip on their body for use. A battery of sorts. Or if you really want to be free of equipnt, just ascend to godhood. Then you can store all kinds of energy inside your body.
That was really insightful Miss Eva, it is as though you really are the goddess, truly impressive.
[Xx-DarkLordOfTheFla-xX]: ...Well, I am sure you have realized it already, although magic works like a wish machine - you literally will sothing into existence with the power of it, magic also has its flaws. Magic cannot be omnipotent, which is why modern weapons will play a large role in the battle with the demons.
Thank you for this interview, Miss Eva. It was an honor, you changed my life. I am not kidding.
But you ca to the right person Milady, although I don't know jack shit about how to make guns and artillery and aircraft and whatnot, the Internet knows, and I AM very passionate about firearms in general. Sohow I got a very boyish taste.
As to how to utilize mana, you need to use your brain, literally. Sohow, I can control mana to move at my will. Of course, this takes a lot of practice, I was only able to do it after 2 months of trying. So far, I've tried the most convenient thing that I can think of: Telekinesis.
I was able to move small objects by controlling mana, they gradually shaped from a mist to a hand, touching and moving the objects according to my will, the mana doesn't even disappear after I use it. Apparently, so magics don't consu the mana.
The maid who saw the spoon on the table just abruptly froze though, she got spooked so much that she let out a scream and went to fish my dad. Did she notice that I was using mana?
My dad who eventually ca to interrupt my lunch had a look of bewildernt in his eyes. His na is Louis, by the way. "Sylvia, how are you using mana already...?'' So the maid saw that after all.
''E'm a jebius, ded'' Ignore that, please, my first ti trying to talk normally, don't let cringe every ti I rember this in the future.
''...My daughter is a genius! I have to let everybody know about this! Sophia, help her finish her al!'' Dad ran out of the room.
''Yes! Your Majesty!'' The maid answered and turned to , her face showered with excitent. "Let's eat now, Your Highness!''
...Are they just going to ignore the fact that a 6-month-old baby talked? Mhmm, well, I did call them Dad and Mom a few tis already, fair enough.
It is I, Sylvia again, I'm 10 months old now. Due to the mistake I made 4 months ago, now virtually every soul in this kingdom knows that I'm a genius. Yare yare, it's hard to receive all the complints all the ti daze.
At this point, I still only know how to use telekinesis, as my parents don't really have any plan to let learn other magic, like elental ones. I understand their concerns though, they wouldn't want to injure myself or other people. I don't pester them either.
If there is one thing that I got out of binging every Murim and Wuxia novel there is, it would be to master your foundation. So I balance my schedule between sleeping, practicing magic, and entertaining myself on the Internet.
Over ti, I noticed my mastery in controlling mana increase, I can now move heavier objects than before, and I can even control two or three at the sa ti. My mom and dad always cry tears of joy when they see do that though, wonder what is the standard for kids here.
As a wise man once said, ti runs fast like the dog in the field. It has been 100 years, wait, no, 1 year since.
I am now almost 2 years old, with shoulder-length soft vanilla-colored hair, and blue eyes with glints of yellow in them, almost like Lapis Lazuli, truly beautiful. My face is still a little chubby, I do look cute though, I can see myself being a hot girl in the future.
After my maid finished brushing my hair, I am now going out to complete my objective today. Let's get to Dad's office.
knock knock
''You can enter.''
Opening the door, I can see a handso man with a serious look on his face, sorting out his papers. The scene unfortunately crumbles after he sees , as he imdiately abandons his duty and walks up to , then proceeds to hug .
''What's wrong, my little princess?'' He says with a soft smile.
''Dad, can I go to the library now? I want to learn how to read.'' My dad had blocked all my attempts to gain access to the library, apparently worrying I would unintentionally pick up a dangerous magic and blow myself up. As Dad said, many children have unfortunately ended themselves while practicing magic at a very young age.
''Hmm....You're very stubborn on this, my daughter.'' He puts down from his hug, hand reaching to his chin, pondering.
''Fine, but I'll assign a guard and have nanny Isabella accompany you, alright?''
Yes! He finally conceded.
