บท 11: The Experiments of a Three-Year Old
I think I'm at the perfect age to start training, albeit lightly. So from now until the pressure stops building, my pyjamas will be on, 24/7. This routine will eventually lead to me being well prepared for my Tribulation in seven years. Should be at this kind of training for awhile, best part is I don't need to actively exercise. So, just channel a bit of Mana in to the Key Rune, and I'm starting to feel the strain. It's as if I'm wearing 455 kilos all at once, I can just barely walk. Maybe I should try observing my own body through Aura Vision?
That's very informing, my Aura is being forced into my bones and muscles as the weight bears down on me. I'm certain that this exposure to Aura is what changes my physique, since specific body parts don't usually get exposed to large amounts of Vital Force. That means that this energy has some kind of special property that causes change, which would be backed up by previous evidence. The mutation of the mine's ore, the improvement of Spirit and Specter's bodies, it all adds up.
Most of my future will be based on infusing Aura in to different materials and beasts to elicit a reaction. Maybe I should start small, on sticks and stones, that would be easiest as they are so plentiful. So, I'm off to the Courtyard, at a snail's pace, cause I'm barely moving.
*30 Minutes*
Oh gods, that took too long, I was winded by the time I got out of my bedroom. Now I'm exhausted, I need to sit down and recover some air. Let's just meditate for a bit...
...

Okay, I've recovered, now it's time to start the experiment. Luckily, none of the servants have gotten around to sweeping so there's still plenty of testing material. Let's start with a twig, since it seems basic enough. First, I'll try overloading the branch with Aura.
*One Minute*
This is definitely a strange reaction, the twig has turned into a branch, and has started flowering. Wait, the flowers are actually growing into fruit? How? They haven't been fertilized by any insect, this is completely wrong. Are these apples? My god, they are apples. Oh dear, I think this is a very odd experience. But, how do they taste?
*Munch*
They are quite sweet, with a bit of a tartness afterwards. It's fairly juicy as well, so it's more like I'm drinking the apple rather than eating it. An extremely tasty byproduct of one of my experiments. But let's move on to a stone. This should yield some of the more expected results.
*Two Minutes*
Surprisingly, the stone has changed from light gray to a deep black color. It has gained a bit of glossiness, and I think it's heavier than it was. Let's see what happens when I throw it.
*BOOM*
OH SHIT, fuck, fuck, FUCK. I didn't think it would explode, why the fuck would it explode? I mean, sure I basically saturated the damn thing with Aura, but I didn't know it would turn into a god damn grenade! Thankfully, there wasn't any staff around, and it didn't land in any of the rooms. But I should leave here before someone investigates the sound.
*One Hour*
Okay, back in my bedroom, time to act like nothing happened. I think a future rule I should set for myself is 'Never let your curiosity go unchecked'. I'm really hoping that nothing important was destroyed, Dad's going to blow a gasket. What if that destroyed part of Mom's garden? Shit, I shouldn't play around like that. These are people's lives that my rampant experimentation could harm or even ruin. Dammit, I didn't think this through, I can easily kill those around me with my shenanigans.
Okay, let's breathe, in and out, in and out. Alright, I'm calm now, I can start thinking rationally. I realize that I should be more careful with my future endeavors. But I'm not going to stop my experiments, they give me too much valuable information, not to mention benefits. That would be completely nonsensical as materials aren't hard to come by, so I should use them. I'm not talking about animals and the like, but things like branches and rocks. I'm going to start again, hopefully nothing becomes explosive.
"Open Sesame"
The colossal space appears once more, its treasure lay before me. I'm going to attempt a piece of raw ore this time. I'll use this chunk of, I think mythril, and try not to kill myself. Well, now I'm nervous, can't even manage to bring out my Aura. I'll just try a minute less, maybe I packed the rock too full.
*One Minute*
Okay, after a few seconds in, a lot of the outer impurities fell off. I now have a purer ore than what I started with. It also feels much warmer than what it was when I began the infusion. This better not have become unstable, I don't think my parents could handle it. This is mythril too, it'd be a waste of quality material. Sigh, scientific research is expensive, I could be broke by the time I make a real breakthrough. I'll keep going, maybe I might see a new reaction.
*Another Minute*
Uh oh, the ore changed color, it could be explosive now. It's not black though, it changed from silver-gray to orange red. Hmm, am I just smelting this with pure Aura? I can't tell, since I'm half-Dragon I'm extremely resistant to temperature. I can't really be burned, so it's entirely possibly I'm slowly melting the mythril. I'll wait for a while and see if this cools at all, it might return to its normal state.
*30 Minutes*
It didn't change at all, it's still the same color, I think it was a successful experiment. This means I can, in fact, alter the materials of this world by using my Aura. I can see it through walls using Aura Vision, which means I have a way to track stolen ore now. Ha, this is perfect, better metals with the added bonus of anti-theft measures. I've got an idea, once I earn enough personal money, I'll open a blacksmith and sell equipment of my own design. I can make membership cards out of Aura infused metal, and that way I'd could easily identify counterfeit cards.
*Back in The Void*
"Hmph, that child finally learned some restraint. He's been too unchecked. Maybe messing with him like that was a good idea." The God grumbles away, unknowing of what the woman next to him was thinking.
'I just think you're still mad about him tricking you. The two of you are so alike, playing jokes on people but not appreciating others pranks.'The Goddess thought.

SuperNova681 I'm not writing tomorrow, I'll be hanging out with family. I don't know how things will go. My guarantee of two per week still stands, so don't worry too much.
As Always,
Thanks For Reading
