Sovereign of Envy

"Ah well, the bed was already occupied" seing that she was there... still wearing the same cloth and sleeping, I just slowly aproached her to a viewing distance. I wasn't planning anything, malice or wicked thoughts... no

Rather I feel a slight sense of guilt, she was left alone because of me and even exposed to danger. But then the more I think about it, the more I'm glad I helped her after all this...

But a main road huh? and that eastern kingdom...

Now that I think of it, she does know magic... but wasn't familiar to what I did. I don't know exactly if I should be happy or not. I dont even know that you need a chant to do magic, but wasn't it better to not?

It wasn't as if I was planning to pry into her life, but I wanna check what exactly is magic, or if its normal to be able to use magic. Heightening my senses and focusing it into her... I tried to sense her core. Or so I thought I should be doing, but then I didn't find anything 'core' like or anything. Trying it a few more time and still ending up on the same result, till then I heard a 'bling' sound

▪Mana IV = V

{!}▪Magic eyes

Well, I wasn't exactly expecting that. Magic eyes huh?

[Magic eyes: Ability to perceive and sense both mana and magic around you]

Thats somehow advanced skill, as expected of level 5

Magic eyes... Magic eyes... huh, aren't it similar to what a chuunibyou would like to have? ah but I don't know its uses yet

Focusing my senses into myself and then transfeing it into my vision, the word 'eyes' is the only clue I had to this, I stood there staring at the girl. Till then I notice a few small changes into my sight. I looked around the cave... it was gradually changing as if demanding me to get used to it first. Closing my eyes back and forth and testing it again and again for at least 10 minutes till it suddenly changed my vision entirely,... I then observed whats on my sight

A completely different world tinted by blue, it was laid into my eyes but its kind of weird cuz I still feel normal aside from my physical eyes which still feels rather uncomfortable

Its like a glittery kind of world, although I'm inside a cave, something like waves were moving around me, a few spots in the air which glitters and... hmm?

"Whats that?" it seems that I can see something within the cave walls... floors and ceilings which I havent seen before, the outside of the cave was perceivable... yet the inner walls wasn't, also some kind of markings were left here and there that I haven't seen before

I moved my gaze just below me and into the girl, eh...

From what I could see, her body was filled with mana, and like a glass full of cold water, her body was oozing of mana as if it was cold air

Wasn't this bad? it looks like a leakage of mana to me

Looking into myself as if comparing it, surprisingly what I saw at my hands was as if it was hollow and didn't have anything, but after looking more intensely into myself and into where I perceived my core, what I saw there was a single core at the center of my body made of a very solid color of dark blue, and its somehow small and very hard to perceive... 'what is this thing... I have nothing in the skills that should be able to do that aside from stealth. Then titles?'

"Titles"

●

[Title] Sovereign of Envy, Lost Memories V, Rebirth, Stealth Specialist, Assassination Specialist, Sleeping Calamity, One who Conceals Power, Throwing Arts Master, Elemental master {Unavailable}

●

Sovereign... ya, Lost memories... ya, hmm... then what about this two? shifting my my gaze into the 2 skill which I got at the earlier phase, I calmly observed them

[Sleeping calamity: A being that has a single stat above 110]

Just that? and nothing more? I somehow understood the master titles and all but this look more like an achievement to me, I'm kinda disappointed

[One who Conceals Power: A being who has great power yet was well hidden, {Unique: Grants unpercievability and enables you to greatly control your power}]

Ah... so it was you, but then again it was unpercievable yet I was able to... I guess thats the exeption of being the owner. Looks like it was the reason why I can control my power better... and this title has more uses than the others

I slowly knelt down in front of the bed to closely observe Iris, well I couldn't be sure if its normal for people to have no core, but what's happening to her is also something that shouldn't be left alone, if it was indeed a leakage of mana, I'm sure it has a negative effect to either her own body or the surroundings

I have the urge to wake her, or to at least wake her but then I remembered just how much she cried earlier... Im very sure she was tired and it would also be bad to disturb her, I haven't seen much of her face but somehow I understood how hard her situation is

Somehow I want to help her, but then I just don't know what to do. Magic could almost be said to be omnipotent but then again all if it was useless if you don't have any knowledge regarding it

Putting my palm just above her shoulders, I noticed a faint hint of something like a funny feeling I have felt... and somehow... I felt slightly tickled within

Also the feeling of mana that was oozing out of her reached my hand, and by my surprise my hand just naturally sucked up the mana outside her. It was then that I realized something wrong around me, the mana waves that was filling out of my vision were linked into me. At first I thought it was just passing through to me, but from the looks of it, they are indeed somehow flowing into me

My hand remained on top her shoulders for a few more minute as my gaze fly around the surroundings when suddenly the funny feeling that I had felt earlier intensified, which then made me look at my hands

I noticed that her mana somehow clumped together overtime and that is already slowly forming up somehow, it was when my vision suddenly split up or feel like I was looking at two different angle. For that single second, it made me think up as if it was a backlash for whatever am I doing. Not noticing the rough breathing and sweating that I was having

*Bling* h-humm? what was it this time?

"U-up- Up...date" I feel like I wanna pull out my hand immediately but then something just inside me was instinctively telling me to not. I also keep jolting up and down as I was experiencing a strange feeling

It was only when I fall down on the ground then I finally noticed my current condition

I wasn't feeling tired or fatigued, but instead...
