Diary Entry #1

Dear Diary,

Rejoice, for centuries later, long after I have died, you will become a priceless piece of writing, because I have successfully managed to create the most magnificent hallucination ever recorded by humans and my delusional levels are enough to make psychiatrists all over the globe to salivate. Because I see no other reasonable reason other than a GODDAMN MENTAL DISABILITY TO EXPLAIN THE SHIT I AM SEEING RIGHT NOW!!!!

...

Diary Entry #2

Dear Diary,

Sorry for that rather unsavory outburst. I am calmer now. The reason I was so frenzied is because..I have somehow turned into a baby. Yes, I have apparently undergone the wondrous scenario desired by chunniboyou-affected teens, otakus and NEETs all over the world. I have reincarnated in another world as a baby. Yes, another world because unless my mental disabilities have skyrocketed I see no other viable explanation for the phenomenon I am currently experiencing. I can see the edge of my bedsheet hovering in front of me, and the thing is, I feel that I am doing it.

Diary Entry #3

Dear Diary,

I AM A GODDAMN MAGICIAN!! I don't even care if I am hallucinating this stuff, this stuff is awesome!! I did levitate that bedsheet, y'know? I don't know how but I can feel the existence of something foreign inside me. And imma stop you right there before you get any nasty thoughts, it's magic alright? I can feel an energy flowing through my body from a core like structure located near my navel and I gotta tell ya, this is a-mage-ing!!!

...

Diary Entry #5

Dear Diary,

After countless tries, I have managed to gain a rudimentary control of this energy that is henceforth dubbed by me as mana. Right now, the only thing I can do is levitate a few things, control said things in the air wobbily and create light on my fingertips.

...

Diary Entry #8

Dear Diary,

I have discovered a wondrous property of mana. It increases in amount when I exhaust it completely. At first, I pegged it as a delusion as the additions were so minuscule but now I am positive that it is indeed growing. Well, NEETs and otakus, that is one theory that has proven to be correct.

...

Diary Entry #11

Dear Diary,

I have discovered another use of mana. It is transparent, odorless and utterly invisible, and thus makes for an excellent radar. I have managed to spread it around me passively with a pulse that is in sync with my heartbeat. This is sending me the information of my surroundings directly to my brain, kinda like a mixture of 360° vision and echolocation. Since my mana is so small, the radius is only a few meters in size but even that is enough to alert me of the presence of a matron so that I can act like a baby, and make me extremely dizzy. Processing all that information is proving to just barely enough within the limits of my brain.

...

Diary Entry #15

Dear Diary,

I almost got caught by a matron when I was practicing my levitation. I need to increase my mana amount and also my brain power to handle the extra load of my detection radar.

...

Diary Entry #16

Dear Diary,

Wish me luck. I am about to channel mana into my brain gently and hopefully I turn into a genius or a computer of sorts. I have tried channeling mana in my hands and legs but I have seen no side effects other than feeling healthier and stronger. Hopefully there will be no side effects when I commence channeling mana into my brain.

Diary Entry #17

Dear Diary,

It has been an hour since I committed the reckless act of channeling mana into my brain. So far, I see no side effects except a mild case of addiction. Mana is apparently loved by my brain and now that I think about it, my body too. My limbs are demanding mana too. Huh. Well, for now I'll indulge my brain and body and see where we go from here. And yes, I did see an increase in the processing power of my brain. I can now handle the previously exhausting task of radar detection fairly easily.

...

Diary Entry #18

Dear Diary,

I appear to either have an extremely increased perception of time or I am a goddamn genius, because somehow it's only been 6 hours since I woke up as a baby in this new world and I have managed to gain a fair amount of proficiency in magic. However, I'll leave further training and experiments for tomorrow as now I am feeling tired. My initial mental exhaustion was erased by the excitement of magic but now it has returned tenfold. Goodnight, Diary.
