Chapter 7 - ch 7 living

"Alright, guys, some things have changed since the last time, so time for a recap of the wonder adventure of Samael Moore. It started with me doing toddler stuff. You know the basics, like learning to read and write. What's that a two-year-old shouldn't be able to read yet? Well, you see, I am the exception, though I honestly just cheated because it's just English. Now, where was I? Ah yes, after that, a couple of weird things happened, like having a better memory and healing quickly. I had to learn the second through falling and cutting my knee. Now, of course, I'm going to keep my superpowers to myself for now. I wouldn't want to be seen as a weirdo. Just yet, let me enjoy myself a bit longer before chaos happens anyway. they're taking me to some church to awaken my magic wish me luck"

I was then brought through a door into a small room with a sphere floating above some kind of water.

"Father Mathews We are glad you allowed Sam this chance to awaken his magic. " said my mom

"No worries, Elizabeth It is our pleasure to allow another to experience the blessing of the Father. " said Father Mathews

I was then led to the pool, which felt very familiar.

'Ah, son of a bitch, this is connected to that goddamn ocean somehow, isn't it? If I get pulled back, I'm finding a way to blow up every church of the father of magic I can get. It doesn't matter if it takes another hundred years.'

"Alright Sam just touch the orb and the process shall begin "I was instructed by Father Mathews

I proceeded to touch it while hoping to God I wouldn't end up in that hell again while that familiar feel of limitless amounts of anima began flowing through my circuits, filling them at a faster rate than I had in all these 5 years.

'The blessing pool remains a mystery. It could awaken someone's potential attributes and elements better than any priest or mage could. How was a machine better than those directly touched by the Lord?'I pondered as I watched the young Moore begin his awakening before I was hit with the shock of my life.

From my position, I could see that the pool of spiritual energy was being heavily drawn upon to awaken him. Normally, it should slowly move through him to the appraising orb, then back through him to the pool again, but currently, it seems to be being cycled through him and not the orb. This is rare because most souls do not have a way to channel the energy before awakening. I must ask my colleagues what to do in this situation.

After being washed by the Anima Ocean, I could feel my channels becoming more active than ever before. I hate to admit it, but this experience helped me, even though I wasn't sure how it even did what it did. I labeled it magic so as not to give myself a headache.

"Pass me the orb child so that I can tell you what your element is." said the father

I passed him the orb, excited to see what magic I would be able to cast, and after he looked at it, he gave me a look of pity.

"I am sorry, my child, but your element is null," he swiftly said.

"Null, what does that mean?" I asked confused.

"It means you have no elemental affinity. You will still be able to cast spells, but you will not be able to do it as easily or as strongly as those with an affinity," he replied.

A look of disbelief covered my face because, really, not even one elemental affinity really

"It'll be fine, son. We'll find a way you can always be a warrior," replied my father, trying to raise the mood.

"Your right, I can't give up yet," I replied 

we then left the church and returned home .
