Capítulo 4: A new day
"Eon, let's play outside today!"
Father suddenly called me while I was reading about something interesting.
"oucside?"
I asked in a childish tone. Now that I was 3 years old, I could speak things like a baby and talk in some sentences.
"Yes, let's play in the garden!"
Father sounded very excited this time for some unknown reason.
'He has this proud look while looking at me reading the book, as always. I still remember the first time.'
It amazed my parents when they found out that I can read. Though I was 2 years old at that time, it was still surprising for them.
Well, they were even thinking that I was a born genius.
My father was literally crying rivers, thinking about how I could be a great mage in the future.
My father, though handsome and intelligent, is quite a unique person when it comes to me or my mother.
He always easily gets teased by my mother and acts shy, like they are a young couple on their first date. The girl is playing jokes around and the boy is flustered just by her words.
'They actually make a lovely couple.'
They look like a beautiful painting coming to life; which was painted very carefully and with actual love poured into it.
They just don't have that typical role where the wife does the chores and the husband earns money.
We have it the other way around. And... I love it.
'Mother takes care of finances and father is very good at other household things. He cleans the whole place with magic and he is actually a very good Cook!'
We are currently living in a border city, which is not bad but has nothing particularly interesting.
'I don't know the entire story but, it has something to do with my mother.'
We have a pretty pleasant house and even have a big backyard.
This house is at the edges of the city, so the whole end area is our backyard.
Father, being a mage, has shown me some of the safe magic spells many times.
I got to learn many new things from watching my father regarding magic which I didn't even know could be done so easily.
But, there is only one thing that I don't like about it.
'He won't teach me anything!'
I have cutely asked him many times and... he was hesitant.
'It was like he has seen a ghost.'
Like, come on...
'What is wrong with a 2 or 3-year child showing interest in learning a cool thing like magic?
It's a freaking fantasy world!'
Well, I was wrong about this one.
I realized a crucial thing after a gentle but horrific speech from my mother.
'<Mana Nucleus> is a must before I can even go near the caster when the magic spell is being cast.'
Forget father, I myself was on the verge of crying at that time when... mom lectured us.
'My mom can be REALLY scary sometimes. Don't wanna get on her bad side...'
I made a mental note of that great experience and started preparing for a breakthrough.
'There actually was a way to create <Mana Nucleus> but I never thought I could use it with this body.'
Being a perfectly balanced and condensed mass of a particular type of <Energy>, it can be possible if the person trying to attempt it has a good grasp on their body and the circulation of energy.
So I tried gathering the surrounding <Mana> in one place and condensing the small particles together.
'I never thought my only skill {Energy Circulation} would be this big of a help.'
I can pretty much control them and gather them tougher but, there is only one problem with that.
'The process is very tiring.'
I can't use my skill for a long time. It may even take some years to create a nucleus and make a breakthrough.
'And even after that, I can confidently say that I would be the youngest one to have gone through <Awakening> in human history.'
As it's already rare for more than one person in a normal family to have <Awakened> and after that, choose to be a magician.
'Well... my goal isn't being a magician. It is a bit different.'
In the world I came from, there were [Classes] for every game character to choose and advance from.
'I always chose a class which was not that famous.'
When I first played a video game in my childhood, I had <Archer> as a job and I always played with it ever since.
'Well, being a <Archer> was not that big of a deal.
But in some games where magic and physical classes combined, <Magic Archers> were unique and loved by people.'
Well, that world didn't have many great archers or they don't know the heights one could go to if they can be both a magician and archer.
'But first, I have to make a <Mana Nucleus> to even start with the most basic use of my <Skills> and...'
"We are here!"
Interrupting my thoughts was the voice of my father.
We just reached our big backyard.
I looked around the vast field and saw green grass on the ground.
There were plants and some gigantic trees in the distance, too.
Besides my house was a small flower garden with beautiful flowers.
'My house is actually pretty outstanding!'
Being at the edge of the city and maintained with care, this was a gorgeous home.
"Weather is just right for the fireworks today. Tonight, we might get to see a good show!" Father energetically said.
"Fayrwort?"
"Yes! Eon will love it too!"
My father was looking joyous while mentioning the fireworks. He enthusiastically explained what they are and why they look so beautiful in a clear night sky.
"We control them with magic and they are colorful fire explosions that look beautiful in the night sky!
Oh, you will understand when you see them!"
His eyes had a nostalgic look deep within them as he explained that.
He picked me up and quietly whispered in my ears.
"Don't tell mom about it. It will be a surprise for her. Ok?"
I finally got what he wanted to do, and I played along with him.
"yeh! It will be a superise!"
Well, I know mom will find out, but this will be fun.
'I will even see some new magic!'
We played in the garden for some time and got to the house to prepare a pleasant surprise.
***
While waiting for my dad to complete his preparations, I started thinking about the exciting things one could do with magic.

============
Well, I'm technically still a baby, so I could only read the books and walk around the house.
I can walk perfectly now but the starting part was very difficult.
I often crawled out of my bed, sneaking into the library, which is one of my favorite places in my house.
I really like reading here. There are many books on the continent and some of them are about magic too.
I have learned about many things like [Spell] ranking system as well as about <Skills> which were native to this world.
[Spells] and <Skills> are different as the former is learned and the other ones are obtained through many means.
[Spells] can be learned through good tutoring or self-creation and then used with <Mana> as the energy medium.
To use <Skills> which are either obtained through a <Skill Stones> which can be obtained by killing the <Energy Beasts> with a very low possibly or have from the birth like my skill, one just has to think or say its name.
Then it will be triggered automatically, like a pre-saved command.
But only the amount of [Magic Power] stat could maintain it and our own {Willpower}.
[Magic Power] not only refers to the amount of <Mana> but also the level of control and understanding of the concept of <Energy> itself.
<Skill Stone> is a rare thing that is not that common on the market and goes for a good price no matter what type of skill is within it.
<Energy beasts> when killed, have a very low chance to create a <Skill Stone> inside their body.
They might also materialize a [Energy Core].
These [Energy Cores] can be used in many ways like powering a <Magic Device> or in magical research or as a medium when casting a spell.
'Well, that's pretty much it. But I really want to learn more things and practice my <Archery> skills as soon as I can!'
This is a tough thing when you are just a baby.
"Eon...! It's time. Let's surprise your mom!"
Father walked in and interrupted my train of thoughts.
'Well, it's not always a good thing to think about the distant future.
Might as well enjoy the time with my family more...'
I got down from the bed and responded to my excited father the same way.
"Yes! mommy will be surprised!"
Father picked me up, and we left for mom's study room.
***
knock. knock.
"Honey, Eon came to see you"
The door was closed so father lightly knocked on the door for mom to let her know we were here.
"Oh~, Eon must have a complaint about daddy. Honey~, what did you do~?"
Mom said in her usual mischievous tone. And as always, it flustered dad.
" What I-I-I didn't.."
I cut him out and said In an excited tone. Though his behavior was usual for me, this wasn't the time to be flustered.
"Dada and I have a suplise for mommy!" mom's expression changed to that of curiosity on that.
"Oh~, so that's how it is."
She suddenly had an all-knowing look on her face after looking at dad and me.
"Yes! we will do fayrwort!"
My cute face was almost glowing as I exposed our plans.
"Oh? Fireworks, is it?"
She looked at my father with a smile that was saying something like: 'isn't that dangerous?'
But father had that reassuring look that was saying something like: 'It's okay.'
This time father had a reliable look; totally different from many times he was with mom.
"Okey! Let's go!"
Father said excitedly and mom sighed with a smile.
***
"Okey, I'm starting now!"
Father shouted from a distance and started preparing for his magic spell before creating two transparent shields of a different colors.
"He looks excited. As always~."
My mother also had the same nostalgic look in her eyes like my dad.
'There is definitely a story behind this. But, I will just wait for them to tell me,' I thought, looking at her sweet smile.
It was a lovely and quiet night.
There weren't many houses around our house, so almost no one could see it.
Shiinnnnng... Boooooooooom!
The sky was lit up with beautiful shapes and colors.
There were even names of mom and mine.
'It is breathtaking~!'
I really loved this entire show, which could not go very long... unfortunately.
"So, how was it?"
Father walked towards us and sat down next to mom putting me on his lap.
"Just like the first time. Marvelous~."
Mother praised in a calm voice, still looking towards the sky where the fireworks went out.
"Thanks..."
Father said and just sat there. Mother then rested her head on his shoulder without saying anything.
'Well, might as well go to sleep. The day was delightful and I got to see some very exciting things,' I thought as I closed my eyes.
shuuuuu...
There was just the sound of blowing wind and nothing else as the three of us sat in the large backyard.
