secretly practicing magic a secret between Brothers and magic accidents
Mom had me and Rudy in her arms when I arrived. Mom was speaking to Rudy, saying, "Rudy, if you're tired, you need to use the restroom before you take a nap." My brother was looking downcast. I would, too, if I was involved in an accident.
I spent the next day mocking Rudy for his mishap. Rudy would always blush and claim that I hadn't peed myself. His reply made me laugh out loud.
My friend Rudy and I are still studying the magic book. According to the book, there are seven grades of magic. There are levels of difficulty: beginner, intermediate, advanced, saint, king, emperor, and God.
The book also claims that mana capacity is established at birth, but we immediately learned that this is nonsense. When we tried practicing magic again, I was able to accomplish one waterfall without passing out, whereas my brother could do two. So, in conclusion, mana is not fixed and may expand, similar to a muscle. Another error in the text is that we may utilize magic without incantations. When I question my brother, "How are you using incantation less magic?" Rudy responds with a lengthy scientific explanation. I recall studying a little bit about this in my previous life. I was interested, so I asked Rudy a question.
"so Rudy are you from another world" Rudy's expression turned blank as he said, "How did you know?"
I smiled at him and said, "Because I'm from another world, too." Rudy appears surprised. Rudy inquires of me
"so you're from Earth what country were you born" I glanced at him, puzzled, and said, "I'm not from Earth where I'm from we call it Gaia but I have heard of Earth before I just can't quite put my finger on it" I tried searching my mind for where I heard this Earth previously, but nothing came up. My recollections of my previous existence are occasionally hazy
When Rudy heard this, his eyes widened and he said, "Are you saying there are more worlds besides mine and this one?" Now it's my time to give Rudy an odd look and add, "There's probably billions of worlds out there some are connected some aren't some worlds share gods some don't" Rudy's eyes glaze over and he replies "that's really amazing but can we keep the fact that we are reincarnated a secret between us" I glance at him, puzzled, and ask, "Why do we need to keep it a secret? I have nothing to hide."
Rudy holds my hand and whispers, "Please don't tell anyone, I have my reasons for not wanting anyone to know" "I find it strange that you don't want to tell people that you're reincarnated," I tell Rudy after a brief period of thought. Being a reborn human was something to be proud of in my own universe. But if you don't want others to know you're a reborn human, I'll respect your decision. Rudy expresses his heartfelt gratitude to me.
In any case, we're back to studying magic. Weeks pass, and I'm slowly constructing Mona, while Rudy's mana doubles every time. For me, it takes a week to double my mana. So, once I finish my magic training, I'm going to explore what else I can learn. Lilia, our maid, agreed to teach me proper manners. Lilia was taken aback by my suggestion, which she reluctantly accepted. For some reason, she doesn't seem to like me all that much and appears to be wary of me. I also assist Mom with housework.
Helping mom with her garden is one of my favorite things to do with her. I also enjoy seeing my father practice his sword. I frequently begged my father to begin teaching me the ways of the sword. My father has always refused to inform me that I am far too young. I, for one, can't wait to become older.
I was in the kitchen with Lilia one day, attempting to help her around the home. "Master Ryan, this is my job, and my masters should not be assisting me," Lilia states coldly. "Lilia I know Mom occasionally helps you with the housework, but she's in the clinic today, so please let me assist you; it's not fair for you to have to do everything. "Do I have to command you to allow me to assist you?" Lilia was taken aback and responded, "If that's what young Master Ryan wants, then I'll show you how to wipe off the table and the floor."
Since you still seem remote to me, I decided to question her, "Lilia, is there a reason why you don't like me?" Lilia appeared to worry for a time, seeking for the proper words to speak. while she continued to expand and close her mouth like a fish. finally seemed to have decided what she wants to say "Master Ryan" I don't detest you, but I want to keep things professional, so please excuse me if it came across as me disliking you." Half of me suspects that this isn't entirely true, but I accept what she said nonetheless.
A year has passed, and Rudy and I are continually honing our magic. then on top of that, after my event with the boiling pot pouring on me, which hurt like hell but didn't leave any burns. I decided to put my endurance to the test by having Rudy throw waterfalls at me as part of his magic training.
We only did this while Mom was home, so she could heal me if anything went wrong. To mine and my brother Rudy's astonishment, no matter how hard he hurled the water balls, none of them did any harm, no matter how much they stung.
One day, as we were practicing our magic with the beginner tier water ball spell, Rudy stated, "I think I practiced with this one enough, I want to try and intermediate," to which I replied, "you better not, there's no telling what damage that's going to cause." Rudy offers a weird grin and adds, "trust me, it should be fine. In fact, we can see if this spell harms you." Damn it, Rudy, now my curiosity gets the best of me, and I answer, "fine, I accept." Rudy begins a long incantation for the spell splash flow. I was assaulted by a large rush of water that blew me through the wall, and I flew from the second level, landing on top of Mom's garden.
It felt like I'd been hit with a gigantic club; everything ached, yet nothing was broken. I stood up, and when I looked around, my mother and father were quiet. My father runs upstairs to check what happened. Mom grabbed me and held me before asking me worriedly, "what the hell's going on Ryan what was that are you hurt I don't see any injuries what's going on" I told her everything about how my brother and I are experimenting with magic, how I began to test my fortitude, and how I've been having my brother hurl magic at me. When my mother heard this, she began yanking on my ear.
"I am proud that you and your brother have mage talent, but that was dangerous and stupid. What if you got really hurt? Magic is dangerous, and you shouldn't be testing it on yourself," I admit meekly, "but Mom, I want to see how much I can take." I feel I have a particular power that shields me from harm. and I'd want to put things to the test."
When mum says, "Let's see your brother," she continues to hold me. We proceed and notice the massive hole in the wall that my brother created. My mother put me down and I began talking to my father about hiring a tutor, which caused an argument with my father saying that "we promise that if they were a boy, they would learn sword training and if they were a girl, we teach magic" my mother responds with "they've already shown talent and besides you break your promises all the time" luckily Lilia interrupts saying "why don't they learn magic in the morning and then sword training in the afternoon" Mother and father jumped all over each other right away, and they were extremely boisterous.
that evening. I could hear them genuinely going at it at times, and I wish they'd have the courtesy to keep their lovemaking to a minimum. It's not because I'm envious or anything, I promise.
