At the place where green grasses were dancing freely with the wind; a place where still under the gaze of the full moon; there a young man with messy jet-black hair mysteriously appeared, out of the blue, on the place.
The young man was holding a huge, beautiful cat that can be said that its features did look like a meat ball because of the size of its body. And this young man that appeared out of the blue, needless to say, is Haise.
From afar, huge trees with no leaves can be seen around, seemingly stood as its huge roots holds the earth with history.
Haise wandered his gaze around, analyzing his surroundings. He then stared at the cat and poked its cheek, but it didn't give any signs of reactions and was just resting.
Out of many places, why did Haise choose such a lonely place? Simple, Haise knew those he senses from the shadows will soon come to chase him, after making an assumption that the cat was their target. Also, he didn't want to endanger the people in a potential quest he must settled down, to be able to witness the sun again. And to counter them, he needs an effective plan to fight them with wits involved... after all, he was not as strong as he was reincarnated to another world. He was just a quasi-vampire, who knows his limits.
'I need some enhantcements.' He thought, imagining his dream peaceful and ordinary life would become impossible in his potential quest to survive. 'Yeah, at least the basic foundations will do.' He added after remembering his state.
'Hmm... now let's see.' Haise began to sort all the magical abilities he could use in his mind as fast as he could: abilities that will not affect the flame of life that was blazing lively in him.
'Oh yeah! I can try magic then create some effective spells afterwards.'
'As long as I don't use those powers, I'll be fine.'
He held the cat tightly yet gently with his only left hand. And then, lifted his palm (facing upward) at the same level of his chest and stand-up at the most relax stance.
The place was far enough to buy some time for the seekers to find him. Haise just feel the mana that flows within him, slowly reinforcing his body.
He stayed in that position for over half an hour. The mana did successfully manifested as a form of life energy, but it took him a while to successfully cladded his body with it. And through that, he tried to establish a mana-centre, to which he failed.
Haise then quickly made another option to rely on his exsancthuar more to which it gladly acknowledges to be use of him.
'As expected, the exsancthuar always rejects any form of 'force' that would endanger my life.' Wondering about that, Haise grin softly, feeling grateful to a certain being that could be said responsible for messing up his life.
Few minutes later, pure mana was already emitting and cladded, significantly, throughout his body. It was latent, but powerful enough to block any form of any form of magical energy, but not strong enough to last by blocking the strong one.
Haise opened his eyes, glowing red.
A spherical barrier (that looked like a bobble) appeared upon his palm, indicating a successful outcome.
"....."
With his mental strength he possess, he changed the shape of the barrier into shard that could penetrate a tree. And to make it more effective—
'Now for the primologial affinity.'
In terms of magic and even through the power of exsancthuar, there are five basic foundations that he must learn and meditate to move forward for any survival situation.
The first one is 'enhancement' which Haise already established and reinforced within himself by letting and guiding his mana flow throughout his body, slowly, strengthening any fibers and cells of his body. With the little mutation occurred in his body due to his soul and exsancthuar, Haise didn't have a hard time to reach such good outcome.
The second one is 'conjuration' where a casters can shape mana though the their will, imagination, and wits. This certain basic foundation requires great will, imagination, and wits so that the spell, technique, or even an intent may become more effective. This also help the 'enhancememt' to process more effectively and significantly.
The third one is 'manipulation' (literally about controlling or manipulating). This basic foundation is literally and basically the cup of all the basic foundations. This greatly help the 'conjuration' to process more effectively. And just like 'conjuration', this required great wits and imagination, but 'will' dominates further.
The fourth one is 'transmutation' where casters change the property of their mana. Through magic-spells, this can shape into offensive and defensive spells. And if a casters had reached higher grounds, they could use more phenomenal power that can even bend the reality. This basic foundation also relevant to 'creation'.
And lastly, the fifth one is 'emission'. It is the final release of all the basic foundations. This one is responsible for charging and discharging mana. Requirements: must learn all the basic foundations.
...
'Right now, I cannot fully use the power of Vilzial and can only use a very small portion of it. I guess, I can only try.'
'Fortunately, I managed to established all the basic foundations, but I still need to work and have to be careful for the 'final release'.'
Haise began to concentrate again. Soon, the wind around him became odd by slowly becoming violent. It was not that strong, but still the magical energy was intimidating enough to give off a heavy pressure to his surroundings.
The primologia is an energy and a form of matter that represents the life of the world or the world itself, and it's divided into seven;
Geo, Pyro, Hydro, Dendro, Cryo, Electro, and finally Anemo.
Among the seven primologia, Haise chose the anemo. The reason why, simply because in the field of magic, the anemo-magic is significantly represents 'control' the most. And to effectively create spells and merge it to his skills, involving sword-techniques and martial arts, he decided to choose it to not only avoid him from getting a huge negative aftermath, but also for its convenience and significance to use.
Haise inwardly smiled in satisfaction and inwardly said: 'Finally! with this, I can process my plan, effectively.'
The bari-shard ("bari" a prefix for the things he reshaped that was completely made of his barrier-magic) upon his was now emitting an anemo energy, which made Haise quite satisfied.
"What a fucking tough night I'll be having tonight."
Haise began to process his plan by setting traps through his magic-spells and conjured some bari-tools he could use to destruct his opponents. He even conjured a bari-bag-pack, with the same texture as the actual bag, big enough where he can put the cat in.
After setting his traps upon specific area, Haise stood-up from the ground and wandered his gaze around with his eyes glowing bright red.
'There're here.'
