Chapter 4: My Life Now (2/2)

I ?"

She didn't answerher back and pattingme a weak smile

After a brief moment of confusion, I peeled my head away from my mother's boso in the center of a giant crater, with one

What the fuck?

Who did this? Who had the audacity to destroy the ho?! The perpetrators will rue this day! I will hunt therats, Art honey You awakened, Champ"

"…"

""

I did this?

In my old world on Earth, a similar phenomenon happened when a youth awakened A clear barrier appeared around the awakened and a suessing, though, that the repelling force in this world was lot stronger because of thethat wasn't present back on Earth

As once a King of integrity, I decided on apologizing for this… er situation

"I'm sorry Mom, Dad Am I in trouble?"

"Haha… No Art honey, you're not in trouble We were just worried about you I'h half teary eyes

My idiot father, on the hand, was a lot enius! Awakened at the age of less than three! This is unprecedented! I thought I was fast, but jeez!"

So a couple of hbor passing by screamed, "What in the world?!"

"Haha, we better clean thisthe back of his head

A couple of weeks had passed since then We decided to keep ed to contact a couple of his past Adventurer party members to help rebuild the decimated part of our house while we stayed in the nearby inn With conjurers raising the ground for the foundation and aug to finish The beauty of ly, none of my father's ex-party members seemed to question why our house blew up

That see theour house, my birthday ca with a present, and what seemed to be a loaf of…bread(?) in their hands

Ahh! It was a cake! would've been easier to tell if it wasn't black

Opening the present box to find a carefully carved, wooden sword, I hugged boththem for the present and the cake

This surprisedmy past two birthdays, so I assumed this world didn't really celebrate such an occasion I later found out that birthdays are celebrated starting at the age of 3 because of a tradition froo when babies were e of three

HowI took an interest in noticing

Seeing children, as well as teens working on fares as apprentice blacksmiths made me realize there was no mandatory form of a structured education system Any sort of rudimentary education was provided by their fa)

As soon as I turned three,enius son, I pretended to learn quickly, to her delight, so I could read harder books in the library without drawing suspicion

These last couple of weeks passed by in a flash After awakening, htin it as best as he could He tried to simplify it as uess, but if it weren't for my adult-level comprehensive abilities, I don't think I would've retained much

The basics are as follows:

An easy way to know th lies in the color of youroff, the mana core would be black, due to the body's blood and other i with the mana particles as they formed into a mana core As the mana inside the person's body becoet filtered out over tie into a dark red color Frohter; frohter red

The order goes as follows: black, red, orange, yellow, silver, and then white

From the red mana core until the yellow e, Solid Orange, Light Orange) Rule of thuhter the mana core's color, the purer one's mana core was and the more power they would have access to

While the lessons withi at I asked ic?"

Since my mother still had soed to acquire a pretty wide collection of books on basicwith different weapons Some of them were just books with only simple words and mostly pictures of the basics on how aveat were on a higher level She assumed I wouldn't even be able to understandso that it would be easier to understand, but eventually she relented

A typical day would involve taking reading and writing lessons fro with my father After he covered the basic theory and application of aug how , and body workouts I think seeingto do a pushup would be the funniest thing, but hter

When I' either of these lessons, I usually stayed cooped up in the newly i to further condense and purify my mana core

As the year passed by with notoutside ofdinner one night

"Honey, I think it's tiet Art a proper mentor"
