Chapter 4 - Time Skip and Talent Evaluation

Lutels new life was calm an luxurius. He was born three years ago and had all he needed to life without any worries. His Mother and Father were taking good care of him with help of five maids that were with him all the time taking care of his needs. Most of the time he spend with his mother playing with her and pretending to be normal kid. Today was his third year after reincarnation. He was already accustomed to his new body. He also lerned a lot about this new world he was reincarnated in to. This world was called Nathria. He was born into one of three Dukedome families of Karghat Kingdom ruled by Karghat royal family. His father was one of the best generals under kings comand. His mother was third princess of nerby Nirvira Elven Kingdom. His father meet his mother when he was on mission to exterminate orcs army that was nerby borders of both kingdoms. They fall in love with each other and married five years after the battle. In this world there was no discrimination aginst people like him who were born from love of two different races. It was something normal in fact. Even present ruler of Karghat Kingdom was not full human. In his blood there was some of human some of elven blood. The royal family even had some dragon blood in them. Humanoidal races were peacefull to eachother. But not only because they were all good people but because there were a lot more beast-like and demon-like races that hated human-like races and were in constant war with them.

Today was Lutel's third birthday, and also end of his childhood. In this world humans were growing up faster than in his previous life. It was because of Mana. Mana was energy filling up the world and giving life to all creatures. Wizards, Sorcerers, Witches, and Warlocks were able tu use Mana to create miracles. His father was 5th level Wizard. There were 11 levels to all classes of Mages. Mages was term for all people who were using magic to affect world outside of they bodies. There were also Knights who were using magic to strenghten their bodies so they could be faster and stronger.

Wizards were people who were using mana and laws of the world they knew to create magic diagrams. Magic diagrams were made of runes of laws that they knew, and they could use them to make things like fireballs or other classical magic spells. Sorcerers where people who were using other forces than mana to affect world. They almos always were evil people who had no talent in manipulating mana so they had to use things like demonic magic or magic of death. With demonic magic they could use things like magic of blood that allowed them tu use blood of other people to prefere spells to strenghten themselves. With magic of death they could turn themselves into litches that ruled over undead armies. Witches were using witchcraft. With help of witchcraft they were able to preforme curses on people with for example they blood or hairs. They were also able to make special potions and poisons to strenghten or kill people. But not all Witches were bad. There wera a lot of good Witches that were helping people with they potions or healing spells. Lutel's mother was witch that was specializing in healing people with potions. Warlocks were people that were summoning demons or devils from other diamensions. With they help they were ablo to transform themselves into half-humans half-demons/devils. They had terrifying phisical strenght and were using demonic/devil aura to weaken they enemies.

On third birthday all children in kingdom were taken to Mage Tower nerby they home to see if they had talent in manipulating and absorbing mana. There were different levels of talents that people could have. There were some people who had big talent in absorbing mana but couldn't manipulate it properly, so they could only use basic spells. But even basic spells with they monstrous mana pool they were able to show giantic strenght. Some people were able to perfectly manipulate they mana making they spells more powerfull with lest cost at the same time, but were unable to absorb mana so were unable to use they full strenght.

In the evening of his birthday he was taken by his mother and father to Magic Tower in capital. Magic Tower in capital was named Matheush Tower from name of fundator and one of greatest mages of Karghat Kingdom in history. Matheush Tower had over 70 floors. The tower was made of big pieces of white stone that with help of magic was able to construct near undestructable tower. Inside tower was ascetic decorated interior. Mages in robes were walking in and out talking about magic and politics. Lutel went with his father and mother to magic constructed elevator. They stood on disk in vertical corridor, that after short moment flew up. They directly went to 68th floor. His family took him to Magic Alliance head the most powerfull mage in this moment to test his talent. The head of Magic Alliance was gentle looking old man with long white beard. In Lutel's mind he looked completly like mages from novels, old guys with white beards and long robes.

"Hello Sir Lavis, Ladi Elvina."

Said old man with smile exchanging hand shake. Lavis and Elvina Daoheart where Lutel's parents. His mother surename was originally Silverwood but she changed it after marrying his father.

"Hello Great Mage Hentak. Thank you for help with Lutel's talent evaluation."

"Oh its only natural from my side to help you Duke Lavis.If Lutel is going to have talent similar to his parents he is going to be great wizard for sure. Well without more talking I'm going to start now is it okay?"

"Of course go ahead. Lutel come closer to Great Mage Hentak"

Lutel came to the Great Mage who took his forehead with his hands and closed his eyes. After a moment he felt like something was enterning his body. Then this thing went to where his soul was located under his heart. From that his partents told him it was where located was thing called Mana Core. Mana Core was organ able to store and extract mana. With use of magic core he was able tu preform magic spells. Talent evaluation was divided into few parts. Mana Absorbtion, Mana Manipulation, Mana Core Capacity and Mana Core Toughntess. Mana Absorbtion showed how fast was he able to absorb mana from his surroundings to strenghten his mana pool. Mana Manipulation showed how good were Mana Veins inside Mana Core and how fast was he able to manipulate his mana. Mana Core Capacity showed how big was his mana pool. Mana Core Capacity was able to help to determinate how good natural mana absorbtion was. Until children's were three years old they were able to naturally extract mana from surroundings, but they lost this ability when they grew up. Only with meditation where humans able tu extrach mana and strenghten they mana pool. Mana Core Toughtness showed how strong ones Mana Core was. This determined how much of mana where they able to extract at once. All this determined how big ones Magic Talent was.

Lutel felt that old man was exploring his Mana Core carefully. He looked at every detail of his Mana Core. After a while of examination Great Mage Haktak left his Mana Core and looked at his parents with look of seriousness.

"Is everything with him okay?"

Asked Lutel's parents with concerned look seing how seriouss was he looking.
