Do you believe in Magic? As a child with an endless supply of money, I went to various circuses where I saw the so-called Magicians perform tricks and entertain the crowd with their antics, pulling a rabbit out of their hats, or making something disappear. I knew that they weren't real, that their magic was nothing but a very good set of skillful manipulations of the crowd and their incredibly helpful props.
Wands turning into bouquets of flowers, people being cut in two and even young women levitating over the tables without any visible support, all these things were very fun to watch but in the end, you knew that they weren't real and there always was a rational explanation to them, no matter if you knew it or not. I didn't believe in magic, at the time, then I died, and woke up in a new world, with a Titaness for a mother and power in my hands beyond my comprehension, and let me tell you, it feels good.
Before the book, everything seemed surreal, almost like a dream, one that I was happy to have no matter how crappy my life was, if only those with a healthy body knew how fucking good it feels to be healthy, then again, I'm a demigod so perhaps my body is extra healthy? Alright, I am getting out of track, the point is before this book, it was like I was swimming through the motions.
Now, it felt real, perhaps was my mind helping me deal with all the shit this new universe is throwing at me, or something entirely different, regardless of the reason, everything had changed the moment I opened that book, and it was for the better.
Mnemonic encantation, which basically meant talking backwards, the book was full of spells and other stuff in this order, at first it was easy to learn a few, but the longer the spells got, the more time it took to cast them, it was quite honestly, hard. But surprisingly I was improving at an alarming rate, without getting out of the sewers, of course, I do not want to fight a monster if I can't rap this entire book in less than a minute if you know what I mean.
"Alright, let's try this one again," I smiled, picking one particular spell from the book, "Emit ot yrt tuo eht wen kool," As I said that I focused on the image I had in my head, what I truly wanted, and like a charm, I was dress in new and really comfy clothes, "I wonder if I can sell this," I chuckled.
This magic while powerful apparently had various limitations, for one I couldn't conjure food, or anything fully organic, maybe with time I would be able to do so, but even trying with my very own words to summon stuff like chicken or steak, results with an explosion on my face, and the most problematic one, using too many spells tires the heck out of me, but it's not all bad, I can summon water, which is a commodity down here.
"Alright, I have my new clothes, and I don't smell like shit, because I enchanted my body to smell like the forest, now…. Let's take a walk," I know it's a bad idea, but what can I do? I've been on the sewers for weeks, I need a break from smelling shit all day long.
As I walked to the exit with a smile on my face, I pointed to the door and excitedly said, "Nepo eht rood!" easy enough the door opened without any problems….. What? As a mage, I will not touch things ever again, alright, alright, just let me play with my new toy.
Walking out the sewer, I looked at every possible angle with great wariness, the last thing I wanted was for a monster to come out without giving me time to hit it with my backward words, "Coast clear," I smiled, running into the outside world put of the sewer, with my destination being the park, it kinda felt like I was at home there, it was nice, maybe it had to do something with my mother, who knows, I'm still new to the demigod business.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It took me about an hour to get to the park from my sewer home, and I have to be honest, the park looked like a forest because the place was massive, which was weird, Florida didn't have such big parks... or at least not so full of animal life, huh, oh well, the point is that I walked and explored the mysteriously enormous park for hours petting every animal, pet or not that stood in my way, apparently they all loved me, which considering in my last life they didn't, I'm just going to assume is because of my godly family.
"Today was a good day," I hummed, as I petted the little squirrel that was on my shoulder that had followed me the entire day, "Thanks for keeping me company Alvin," I chuckled, maybe getting out wasn't so bad, so far no monsters had appeared, and everything was going well…. And I just fucked my own day, didn't I? "Alvin, please run, I summoned my bad luck,"
Taking a deep breath I turned around as if following my instincts to see a pack of things that would forever haunt my dream, "Huh, well… I hope there is a god of therapy cause I sure will need his assistance after this," the creatures roaming the park, were tall, like very tall, around ten to fifteen foot tall, and looked like skinny cyclops without eyes... eye, "Maybe they haven't sensed me yet, and I can escape without fighting or running," as soon as I said that one of the monsters turned his head to me one hundred and eighty degrees, scaring the crap out of me, "Alright, I also need a new pair of magical underwear,"
*SQUEAK!*
"You don't need underwear!" As I said that, the monsters charged at me their mouths watering to my smell, with their ever-present smiles, "Etativel!" I am not going to lie, I was very scared.
