Chapter 11: [Chapter 11] Training Part 2
'This new ability makes it so I can increase my mana without increasing my body's strength? That will be useful cause now I don't have to try and explain how I gained a chiseled six pack in a week.' "How are you able to increase your mana container for that long and still be able to move fine?" Asks Estel, his magical fascination kicking in. He ended up getting his winter clothes on at the three minute mark and running out here.
'So that's the snow I heard crunching.' "I-" Sylvic interrupts me, "He somehow used the mana from the shadows to mold it instead of the world energy which damages your body to make room for the increased container. The shadow energy instead slowly expanded the container, which then the body adapted to contain it." He explains, his eyes gleaming. 'Ah so one forces the body to adapt while the other lets it adapt naturally. Wait, how could he see that?' "How did you do it?! This could change magic itself if you tell us!" Yells Estel, his curiosity getting the better of him. "I don't know, it just...happened." I shrug, but he doesn't give up. "There has gotta be something different, it could be the way you visualized it or the way you took it in!" All of a sudden, "Estel!"
Sylvic yelled his name with the goal to grab attention, which he did. "Calm down, now think, there are hundreds of thousands of different ways people of done it, there would have been an announcement of a stance that could do this if it was discovered. I think this is unique to him alone." Estel realizes that he is most likely right and deflated the more he thinks about it. "Now this is a secret and I want you to tell no one about this, not even your closest friends. Got that? If the wrong person heard about this, he could be in danger. Jealousy changes people." "Yes...." Estel says in defeat. He slowly turns around and heads back inside the house.
Elva rushes up to her brother with her plastic smile plastered on. "Did you find out what he was doing that startled dad?!" ".....no." He sadly says as he walks upstairs and enters his room. She loses her smile almost instantly. 'He never reacted like that when I did it! Dammit it!'
I look at Sylvic with a smile on my face, "What's next?" Sylvic looks at me and scratches his head sheepishly. "I didn't plan anything else besides this today because this usually drains a person of all their energy for the day..." "Oh... Then I guess I'll go get to know my siblings better then if that's all."
Sylvic looks slightly happier after hearing that, "Yes, getting to know your siblings is very important!" He is smiling ear to ear, happy the Kurayami cares about his siblings so much.
I walk back into the the house and I shut the door behind me. I look over to see Elanor, Elva, and Aeron staring at me. "Hi guys!" I say while smiling. "I was just gonna look for you guys, I want to get to know each and every one of you!" "Including me?" Says Elanor shyly. I kneel down and poke her nose. "Yes, you too." She giggles and goes, "Me first!" She grabs my hand and drags me to the living room. Aeron looks at Elva. "He sounds and acts with a maturity past his age." Elva just stares at him and he shifts uncomfortably. "I'll just...go to my room now, talk to you later then." Says Aeron as he walks down the hall and up the steps.
Elva stares at the back of my head, 'None of my siblings are allowed to surpass me with power in this family, NONE! I'm gonna stick you in your place before you step out any further.' Then she thinks back to his 6 pack outline. 'But I won't be able to overpower you with sheer strength, so I'll crush you magically so badly that you won't ever recover.'
After spending time with everyone I learned some more about their hobbies, Elanor likes playing tea party with me and Berry plus likes the color blue, Aeron likes to experiment with magical theories and likes the color red, Estel likes to read and likes the color orange, and Elva refused to talk to me.....
After I finish, I go to my room. "That was fun but now is time to practice my affinities." "Stats."
