64 Chapter 15



—Many hours later

Lucian was leaning on the table with the afternoon sun peeking through the green tattered curtains. His hair draped down his cheek as he rested on one elbow. He was the spitting image of a literary hunk right now. Two of the girl\'s four eyes would gaze at him secretly.

\'Hmmm, this is interesting. I need to read this for sure! System, are there any items or skills that allow for quick reading?\'

[One Moment]

[Analysis Found Two Matching Items]

[Instant Reading Technique - 999,999 SP]

\'Are you begging to become a toaster?\'

[Increase Reading Speed 1/5 - 300SP]

He was sad that no one responded. The silence of the system highlighted the absence of Siesta once again.

\'Uh… What does that 1/5 mean?\'

[This skill has 5 levels. The price will double each level.]

[Do you wish to purchase the first level or all five?]

Lucian was sure he would be low on points if he chose all five. He could use it to learn some important things about the world. He came from a world without magic and knows nothing about it.

\'Yeah, what if one day I found out that I did it all wrong? As if putting diesel fuel into an unleaded car and fucked my body! Give me all levels please!\'

[Understood]

[7,400 - 7,200] [200 SP]

Bang!

He felt intense pain when he accepted the skill. His hand knocked the book down as it landed near the insect girl. Her long green antennae fluttered able to sense his pain. She saw him mouth the words, "Sorry, Don\'t worry. It will pass." In common tongue.

The pain inside his mind was like spikes were stabbing him. He could feel countless changes in his eyes and how his memory worked. His eyes only slid over the signs outside, but now he knew the seedy bar was called "The Charming Dahri."

Lucian covered his face with his palm as he tried to get over his pain. He was back to normal after over 20 minutes. To test his ability, he picked up the nearest book, which was written in a strange language that he felt resembled nordic sigils.

He skimmed the book for key points.

— Maathera Mother of Magic and Life

Maathera is a being documented in several history books from various races.

The first goddess to appear. She was the mother to everyone. Her power seemed endless until the Primul Evils arrived.

— A time of great peril began, Bazreth the first Primul Evil appeared with his coming. All darkness consumed the light. Humans became insane and feasted upon their brethren. The world tree withered and cried in sorrow. Demons became corrupted Azil (devils) that burned and looted the lands.

She felt great sorrow when her beloved children who died. Maathera dedicated her heart as a sacrifice. Her blood granted the world a burst of life, tears became rivers of pure mana that nurtured the world\'s core. She healed the withered world tree, restoring human sanity and purified the Azil.

Mana is the modern word for Maatha, which was named after Maathera. Some religions still believe in the Mother of Magic and pray for her return.

It changed every creature of light in the world when she gave her own heart. Now they could use a primitive form of magic. She gave only one desire to her beloved children.

"Fight against the Primul Evils and their spawn!" —Savander Valmet (Fehri Scholar) dated, 100 AP

Lucian read more information about this woman. He never heard her name in the game. This meant she was very important for him to study and also this \'Primul Evil,\' which caused his chest to feel uneasy.

\'This doesn\'t relate to my strange races, right?\'

— The battle against the Primul Evil took wage for over a thousand years. Several races became extinct, never to be seen again. Skaavida, the first dragon empress, used her mountain range to protect around her. She rescued many of the corrupted creatures. They would later become known as vampires.

In order to bring an end to the chaos and death. Maathera sacrificed her body to seal the Primul Evils and the strongest of their spawn back inside the abyss. Her first children gained control over a single element of magic.

This was the true start of today\'s magic system.

\'Wow… She was one bad ass mother. I feel bad that she went so far. Do people even remember this? Look at how damaged this book is!\'

He felt a desire to preserve this book. Maybe it\'s enchanted? When things happened to mothers, he couldn\'t think logically. His mind remembered all that happened her face, tears and resignation.

\'I\'m just a mother\'s boy…\'

His focus was much more intense as he read more about the calendar, how AP means After Primul and BP Before Primul. People no longer understood what they meant.

Lucian didn\'t study in school because of his poor memory. He felt competent for the first time. This also built his own connection to the world other than his women.

Since upgrading his language and reading speed his mind felt more focused and clear.

Things that were foggy before he could now barely grasp. He was filled with delight.

"So this planet is called Eruvia… The Star of Hope?"

\'Could this mean that Maathera created planets before this and failed? Thus, it\'s named hope. Then could Primul Evils be present in other worlds?!\'

Nobody could answer his questions.

He read on that races that were corrupted during the war of fate could transform into a Primul Evil. This made him feel a chill as he held two races already part Primul. The book stated all monsters were the spawn of the evil Bazreth. Maathera lacked the power to fully banish them.

\'This world is quite grim. I miss only needing to worry about money and where to sleep…\'

The devil is worse than the evil. The Devil was the creator of evil. Thus…

"No Stop! Focus!"

Lucian moved deeper into the book. The next chapters focused on magic and information about elves. He would not get negative when he was closer to a normal human. His mind thought of those whiny, sparkling vampires.

\'I need to be the awesome badass type… Not a face paralysed idiot.\'

— Mana is the creation gifted to us by our mother. Her great love embedded itself inside our blood and lives on as small creatures of pure magic. These creatures then allow us to channel mana through our bodies. They will also die along with the body.

Magic Scholars have proven that a person\'s heart decides their element, potential and mana capacity.

Once a person discovers their element, they need three things:

—A blessing is required to attune the creatures dubbed as Mura. They will then merge with that element and allow them to cast spells.

—A tome/pattern which matches the element of your body. This will help guide the mana within your body to allow the spell to form.

—A Chant/Image the spell needs a powerful image or chant to form.

Chants vary depend on the imagination and skills of a caster. No chanting is possible, but they still need to use the set patterns.

There were exceptions to the rule. As some people can use multiple elements. These would require a person to use outside items or have special parents. Man nobles used a special type of herbal bath to improve their child\'s innate Mura. This method led to a difference in power between the rich and the poor.

\'Hmmm, I wonder if the original Lucian took that bath. Sounds very much like those bone tempering baths from cultivation novels.\'

\'System, how can I cast other spells without the attunement? Also, why can my Vampir form cast strange spells with no past study?\'

[Host may despair. Do you wish to continue?]

He stopped for a moment before his fists clenched. Lucian took a deep breath and readied himself. Otherwise, what would he do in the future? Would he cower in fear of the unknown? No, let\'s press forward.

\'Please! Tell me!\'

[Playing Recorded Message From Administrator #9,654,998,441]

A Screen appeared as a beautiful woman beyond his comprehension appeared sat in a garden of colourful flowers and white furniture. She was so cliché it hurt, but Lucian felt inside his chest that this suited her well. He took a deep breath as he couldn\'t ask her the questions now.

He was no longer in Eruvia but sat opposite her on a white chair. This was very much like the VR experience when he launched the game. She tilted her head and blew him a kiss before the recorded message played.

(AN: She says all words, but I wrote in a letter format)

— Hello, are you there Lucian? Hehe, you finally opened up and looked forward! I am so proud of you!

So about your body and why you can cast spells, huh? This was the first thing you asked the system, right? Big sister knows you best, after all.

Sorry, that is all my fault! Your body and the Mura are dead! Maathra isn\'t as powerful as the history books say, despite her brilliant talent for magic.

When I transferred you over before that damned vulture took your soul. They caught my mana signature and could lock onto you and placed a curse.

This curse not only damaged your mind but also wiped out that poor Lucian\'s original body and caused the Mura to register you as dead.

Did you never wonder why you transformed so early and looked like an abomination? I was supposed to have fixed you. But big sis\' always messed up at the important moment!

I missed the curse until it was too late.

Your body was being eroded… I was powerless to save you!

My only choice was to beg someone for help. She helped me. But she claimed you were now hers and I would have to help her when she calls for my aid.

What a stupid woman!

As if you will be anyone\'s but mine hehe! Well, those girls are okay. They are nice and don\'t hurt you.

That woman still hasn\'t realised her sin and thinks she loves you. Tsk! Don\'t worry, when she repents I\'ll send her to you as a pet or something. I know you still loved her dearly, even after everything they did!

Ah side tracked….

Well, your magic? It\'s kind of bad right now.

Your body was slowly dying. The only way to fix that was to defile everything inside you.

So

Please forgive me

I have made you into an abomination. The enemy of all things holy.

My dear Lucian, you may not notice, as I\'ve placed countless barriers between you to stop anyone detecting your changes. But you aren\'t normal… You are just like that terror from before the War of Fate in Eruvia… No, you are beyond him thanks to the blood I used…

Unless the person will be loyal to death or the girl has a level of affection close to half mine, she will just see the normal Lucian Von Silver.

If she truly loves you or accepts everything about you, even if you don\'t have sex. She will see your true colours.

Your magic. I have carved it into your new body and soul.

Each time you break a seal, you will carve more of a complete element into your soul. This will also strengthen the link between your new body and that world. I couldn\'t restore your former body and used some of Lucifera\'s flesh, but it\'s great, right?

I wonder if you have four done so far? That means you can cast all elements to the Intermediate level. I will show you the table and upload it to the system screen!

Be careful of the spells in your [Vampir Form!] You can only use them twice before it will hurt your body and cause you to need to recover for a full day! Every four seals, you can use the spells at another time! Remember, well, don\'t push too far! I will worry too much.

[4 Seals = Intermediate Magic Unlocked]

[8 Seals = Advanced Magic Unlocked]

[12 Seals = All Mortal Magic Unlocked]

Lucian, don\'t worry!

I begged Lucifera to add her own barriers! Hehe, your sister can do anything for her little brother!

So even I cannot see everything about you! So live how you wish! Your big sister will take care of eeeeeverything!

Let\'s chat once in a while? You know… I miss you so much…

"Please remember me soon…" Siesta said with a whisper as the video cut. She wipes away her tears in the shadow of her favourite flower. He gifted this very bouquet on her 18th birthday. She used her magic to restore its vitality each day so it never wilts.

The Viola odorata is a cute purple flower shaped like a butterfly with a yellow centre also known as the Sweet Violet.
