Elias originally went outside to stretch his legs and realized that he felt excellent. The green energy he had absorbed seemed to have some rejuvenating effect. Elias did a few stretches and turned the handle to Erik's workshop, ready to check on his still cooling dagger.
Elias must have pushed harder than he usually did because the handle came clean off. Elias managed to open the door to the workshop without the handle but was still confused at how he managed to break the felt iron handle. Elias had always been strong, but he knew he could not beak felt iron before he tried magic for the first time.
Elias looked at the blade, still glowing with heat, and was excited to try out his next spell. Elias focused again and pulled from his smoothed out core. Elias said Motus while injecting his cores energy into the spell and then concentrating on the dagger. The homemade knife floated into the air as if a string was attached to it, but then instead of floating slowly to him as he intended, it flew at him like a bullet leaving its chamber. Somehow Elias managed to duck under his own spelled, but he still cursed at himself for his stupidity. Who would try a telekinetic spell on a sharp object first? Elias knew that what he was doing was stupid, but he was stubborn, so he decided to try again. Elias put more distance between himself and the blade this time and performed the same spell with more care this time.
Elias Said Motus one more time, causing the blade to float in the air slowly. The dagger made a shaky transition toward Elia's outstretched hand. Elias made the blade stop before and reached out to touch it but retrieved his hand quickly when he smelled his skin burning. Elias's vision blurred with pain, and the blade fell to the ground. Elias doubled over, clutching his hand still in shock, doing his best not to scream at the top of his lungs. Grunting Elias turned over his hand and saw the burn marks still there, but then before his eyes, they rapidly started to scab up before the affected site seemed to disappear entirely.
Elias looked at this with wonder but was quickly getting used to his new reality. Elias was sure he wasn't human now but could not hide his curiosity about his origins.
Elias looked at the dagger. He was angry at being burned, unlike before where he could mold the melted iron, he was unable to even touch the blade now. Elias quickly realized the difference before he had injected his mana into the blade. In contrast, this time, Elias felt none of his aura embedded in the blade. His mana aura changed into normal none magical heat after his aura dissipated.
Elias practiced his Motus spell on small objects in the workshop until it was about midday. The crude dagger had long since cooled, and so Elias decided it was time to try some enchanting. Enchanting turned out to be much more complicated than any other magic. Still, Elias managed to complete this spell after another few hours and tens of attempts.
By the time Elias finished, he had managed to create a blade with a sturdiness enchantment with a faint glowing mark on its handle. Elias realized that it was almost night time and that he should head home before his father set out to look for him. He took his dagger and hooked it into his belt and began to run back home.
Erik's workshop was not very far from his house and only required a short trip through the woods. Elias's form could be seen running through the woods at a speed that would astonish most in the village, but he was still not aware of how fast he was going. As Elias was running, he listened to the sounds of nature around him. The hooting of owls in the distance along with the rustling of leaves his running brought. Elias stopped running for a moment and heard the distant crunching of leaves.
Elias looked behind him and saw Klaus walking in the direction of his house in the dark. Elias waved to Klaus, but it was already dark, and Klaus couldn't see him. Elias was about to continue his run home when he was Klaus getting tackled by a muscular adult form.
