Chereads / Reincarnated Into A Hero / Chapter 7 - What Am I

Chapter 7 - What Am I

It's been days since the tournament and I placed second in the whole thing, this was because I left halfway through the event. I had too many questions to concentrate on so I just left, Terra was looking for me but I was far, I went home for a bit. I had left a message for the headmaster of the school I had to take a day or two off.

I was in the woods near the city, I was sitting there next to the fire thinking over all of what Grandpa said to me. I wasn't fully human and this made me think of why my real parents left me to Calay. I looked at myself in a pool of water, I saw my eyes were not blue like they normally were. They looked reddish-orange, I didn't know what this meant but everyone said I smelled like a dragon. It was a basic thing people said about me when I would fight or release my magic. How would I know what I was, my soul is human but my body was like a dragon or something that strong.

I looked into the fire and then my head went numb for a moment, I looked up and Aunt Emberz and Calay were in front of me. "Son, are you doing ok? " Calay said to me, I shook my head no and told her what was running through my head. " Father told me I know what the other half is, you have tremendous power and you know every kind of magic possible. We or he says that you are half-human and half of a spirit. Your mother is a guardian spirit of a forest long since dead, your father was the human who gave you up. " I looked at Calay and she was serious about what she had told me.

I wondered why I was faster at learning a new element and adaptive when it came to the tricks I learned. I took in all of the new things I heard from my mother, then I spoke to her and Emberz. "I thank you for telling me what I am, though I will be fully human from here on out, a human who defends the people he loves. Not to throw away the spirit side of my family but it won't change who I am. " I stood up and nodded to them and then I walked back to the city, When I was long gone, Calay and Emberz had a brief conversation.

" He will be the hero our ancestors told us about, He rejects hate and welcomes love for everyone." Calay said to her sister, " Yes but, will he be able to fight people from the race he's originally from?" Emberz said while she put out the fire and vanished. Calay stood there alone for a bit before she turned into her dragon form, " If it comes to a fight, I think he will be the scariest thing out there, not us." She then flew home and she left something on the log I was sitting on and it looked like a picture of a familiar face.
