First Summon

*𝒜𝓏𝓇𝒾𝑒𝓁'𝓈 𝒫𝒪𝒱*

I became 5 years old yesterday, and today I am standing in our back garden with my father while my mother was looking at us, sitting on the wooden extension and smiling.

"So from today, I am going to train you to control mana because even when you don't have any elemental affinity you need to control mana to summon your summoned creature."

"Ok, it is very hard to control mana?"

"It depends on personal comprehension. Some are talented and some are not so talented. Now, any questions? If not we will start."

"I do not have any questions."

"Ok so sit cross-legged, I will channel some mana through your body, try to feel it flowing through your body."

"Ok", with that being said I sat cross-legged and concentrated. I felt my father resting his hand on my back and I felt some hot streams flowing through me.

I felt it coursing through the veins but the veins were different than the ones our bodies use for coursing our blood through it.

"Dad, I feel something flowing through my body but it's not the veins through which our blood flows."

"Those veins are called meridians. As you climb through your cultivating ranks your meridians expand and pump more mana through it."

"Dad, you never said anything about the various cultivation levels."

"Yes, as of now you just need to know that if you can control the mana that I passed through you, then you will partially step into the meridian cleansing step. There are 3 sub-steps meridian step, then 3 meridian strengthening steps, and lastly 3 meridian expansion steps. The 3 steps are individually called early, medium, and perfect steps.

Don't think too much about it. Now try to amass the mana on palms."

I concentrated to control the flow of mana coursing through my body into my palms. I noticed I can feel that I was holding something vague in my palms.

"I guess you are talents on mana control. We will stop on this step now. Take a break we will meet after I return from work. And I will course my mana through you again and at that time you will try to use an artifact that I purchased for today and try to summon a creature."

I said okay, as I can feel that I was feeling tired.

"Azriel, you can go inside, I have prepared your favorite food for you and kept it on the table. Eat them and then go to sleep."

My son, Azriel, just grew up to 5 years old and my husband is going to teach him how to defend himself from today onwards. They are standing in the garden and having a questioning session amongst themselves.

After the questioning session, they both sat cross-legged with my husband resting his palms on my son's back. I still remember I was 14 years old when I was awakened and my father did the same thing so that I can learn how to control mana.

Just after few minutes after Lucian started coursing mana through my son's body, I saw something that surprised me. My son, Azriel, can already control mana just after being introduced to him.

Genius, he is an absolute genius. Now I know why, Lucian, wanted to start Azriel's training from such an early age. If he is not trained now, then we will be wasting God-given gifts that He bestowed on our son.

The training just finished and I informed him to have breakfast and then he should go to sleep because tonight might be an exhausting experience for him.

"Darling, our son is a genius and earlier I thought that after you train him maybe he will be tired. But I want to train him now. I won't start training him now, but after he is comfortable with your training like a year or so, I will join you to train him. It's good right?"

"I think it's will be okay, but are you sure you want to train him on your ways? Like he might not be suitable for that."

"That's the reason I will observe him for one year or so and then I will judge if he is suitable or not."

"Ok, then I will have my breakfast and go to my work. Just keep an eye out so that he relaxes throughout the day because tonight it will be exhausting for him."

"I know dear, don't worry about it."

Then I kissed Lucian on the lips quickly, and I quickly ran into the house.

From outside I could hear Lucian's laughter after a short duration I pulled off my stunt.

"Why is Father laughing, Mom?"

"Nothing, your father is a silly man, maybe he found something funny. Just finish your breakfast and then sleep. You will need the energy you save for tonight."

I saw Azriel finish his breakfast and go inside and I lamented how much of a genius he is. I spend around 1 week continuously doing what he did in just a minute's span.

Evening approached and my father came home.

The sun was just setting on the horizon and our whole family was in the garden yet again.

"So Azriel, this is an artifact I gathered for you, for your first summoning."

I saw a Sword in my father's hand.

"This sword has the metal element and it's a tier 1 sword artifact. Take this and also be careful it's heavy and sharp.", with that being said he stabbed the sword at the ground in front of me.

The sword was a bit longer than my height even when it stabbed into the ground. I pulled the sword from the ground by expending a lot of energy and when I did I saw that both my parents had slight smiles on their faces.

I saw that and I pouted in anger. And once I did that the dams from and my father was rolling on the ground while my mother had some difficulty controlling her laughter.

I remembered what my mother said about my father that he was a bit silly and after I saw him rolling on the ground from laughter, I agree with that.

So dragging the sword on the ground I walked a bit away from the rolling creature on the ground. And I concentrated on activating the summoning skill from my profession.

The laughter stopped, and I saw my father put on a serious face, and watch with attention, my mother was doing the same. After looking at them I closed my eyes to pay full attention to the mana surrounding me.

A circle appeared around the sword on the ground in front of me.

The Circle changed the plane on which it was present and it was floating in front of me. I felt a slight pull from the circle and the sword loosened from my grip and flew into the circle.

As the circle consumed the whole sword artifact I saw it go backward and a creature standing on his 2 feet manifesting itself.

The creature was a humanoid creature with a height slightly taller than me, the creature was a male with a somewhat dark complexion and around the same age as me. I think.

After he appeared the circle vanished and he was left.

He was a bit confused as I saw that he was looking all around him and he looked at his arms and legs and jumped around a bit. Then after a few moments, he looked at he and asked, "What are you?"
