Chapitre 2: Chapter 2
Blackbend City
Waking up, Charlie seemed to look around, confused. He was in his room, remembering what happened. He looked at his arm. It was okay until he looked at his palm. A large burn-like scar was covering his middle palm.

The door opened, and his father walked in with a tray or some bottles. When he saw his son, he froze. "Hello, father, how is life?" Charlie said awkwardly, breaking into tears. His father ran up to him, placed the tray on the bedside table, and hugged him.
"I. I thought I had lost you. I am so sorry for not paying attention to you. I was so lost when your mother died and looking at you hurt, but when I found you in that ditch, I thought I lost you," he cried as he hugged Charlie. As he sat there, some tears swelled up in his eyes, which he did not realize until he was also crying and hugging his father, who has gotten skinny because he ate less after his wife's death.
After minutes of crying and apologizing, they stop as Charlie falls asleep, exhausted from crying for an hour straight, while his father sits by his side, watching and making sure he is safe and sound.
One week later
Now fully recovered, I secretly worked on wind and water magic by making breezes and moving the water when I bathed. It has been working; it is still hard to create shapes and such, but it is going, and my relationship with my father has been going. We eat together and train. Yeah, he has been training me with a spear, of course, a wooden one that fits my size, and to be honest, I like the spear; it is fun to train with it. Just the other day, my father's work relocated him to Xryus City. Don't ask me what his work is; I have no idea. I just know a new position opened up and he took it, and he also gave us a house on the house, so there was no reason not to take it.
We leave in four days. He has some teleporting scrolls that were mailed to me a few days ago. I knew that must have cost a fortune, so I also really want to know what he works in. I have asked, but he always avoids the question, so for now I am just packing my things, which is not much—only a few pairs of clothes and some books that I liked. I just hope I get the items that I won on the third wheel soon, which look pretty cool.
Four days later (A/N: I feel like I am rushing things, which sucks. (Tell me if you want me to stop doing it; it feels lackluster.)
We are now in Xryus. The house is two stories and has a training area, which he uses a lot. He said his job needs him to be in better health and fitter, so I feel that he is some kind of guard, but I have been working on my core. Still in the middle of black, I am in no rush, but I want it to get bright or at least be red, so I have been training every day in gathering mana.

It has been months, and it is safe to say that I have been working on my magic. I have been able to make shapes with water and shoot needle-sized darts with wind for fire and earth. I can make a small burst of fire and move the earth around my feet like shoes, so yeah, there that, and I found out a month ago that my father works with Arthur's dad to talk about forced plots, but whatever I just need to train, I have no dragon will or an old elve king to train me. I just need to focus on the spear basics and my strong element affinity. Until he comes back to his family, my father probably knows about my core awakening and seems to just treat me normally, not pushing me to do anything or train in magic, just spear art, which I am glad about, and he "accidentally" left a book on wind magic and how it works on a bedside table, which I am glad about.
A few days after the book incident, I woke up with a large box at the foot of my bed. Opening it, I saw my mask and cloak with a note.
[Dear Charlie
It's your favorite deity. I have sent this later because I have been busy with godly duties and such, but I hope you like it. I put in an extra item because I felt bad, so enjoy!
-Sincerely Tom]
Pulling out my cloak and mask, I saw a pole-like object under them. Holding it gave me a massive headache. After a bit, I could think clearly, and this object was a weapon like an ego, but not quite. It became a weapon you would be amazing at, and it would change as I grew to better fit me when I was older. Right now, it is not active until I get stronger, so I just have to keep training.
****
It's been a year. Daddy ahaha sorry but it has been a year and I have good news that just broke through to dark red I could not be happier my father and I spoke about my awakening and it was surprising to him at first but he said that I could tell him when the time was right and he did not want to treat me any different especial not spoil he saw what that could do to kids and make them nightmares as they grow up but he said to up my training another thing is I am forgetting thing about TBATE along with another thing about my last life which sucks extremely but I have been working on that mana cycle movement thing Sylvia reached Arthur when they were in the cane, and it was extremely hard. Arthur is a monster in the learning aspect of things.
I will still work on it as I train; it could be a great help in battles. I have also just learned sound magic. I know it is crazy, and I love it so far. I have been training in making animals pass out by the noise. I have killed a few rats, but I have been getting it recently, so instead of a rapid assault of sound, I snap my finger and an explosion of sound targets the ear of my target in a second, no warning or anything. It has the most effect on an animal with high hearing.
I have also been working on Ice Magic, but it is much slower, but it is there, so I am not worried. I have also been training in my spear, and I have learned a lot about my father. He is second in command next to Reynold, or Arthur's dad. I met his family there, and a bit later I got babysat by his mother and the family they live with, which was nice since his mother recently gave birth. I was there mostly with my father as he calmed Reynold down. I'm not happy that my training has lessened because of the babysitting, but I love their food. Man, am I a glutton?
****
Well, it's been another year. I am now 5. I have mastery of sound. At least the move I made of knocking things out with my snap. Yeah, I tested on humans, but only the homeless and jerks. I only killed a few. You have no idea how horrible I felt after killing my first homeless person. I wore my cloak and mask, so no one knew it was me. Did I mention the mask changed my voice, hair color, or how people perceive me as crazy? I know, and the cloak is super strong.
I have also been working on Ice Magic, and I have a break. By a break, I mean I cannot make weapons with my ice that are as strong as the actual thing. Yes, I have been making hundreds of spears and shooting them at a target made of straw. I am pretty strong now, with a light red core that is almost orange. My father is so proud of me that he bought me a spear for my size. My other deity weapon is like a wand since it can conduct magic through it.
Just another year, and Arthur comes home to his family. I wonder how strong I am compared to him. I just don't want to stay close to him. I could just ride alone with him and help every once in a while, but that is just so taxing. I also talked about becoming an adventurer with my father, and he was not a fan. I am strong; I could even win in a spar, but he says it is dangerous, and if I remember correctly, the other continent is sending dangerous creatures or infecting them and just placing them around the Beast Glades. So I will just wait until something happens and just train. I could gladly say my body rivals any Olympic athlete, at least for my age.
One year later
