After 3 Months
Main Character's POV
Now I am 8 months old and can walk and speak some words. My vocal cords and muscles are still in development. After getting used to this new life and letting go of my past emotions, I am now ready for new challenges. I have to think about how to unlock my classes first. I thought about the wizard class since it's my main class, so it should be easy to unlock. I also possess magical energy and talent like Merlin, but my plans failed quickly.
I tried to use my mother's wand as I found no other way to get started. After a lot of pleading, playing cute, and making baby promises, along with lectures and head nods about how to handle and care for wands, I finally got the wand. I tried to swing it like how I've seen my mother do, but after several failed attempts, I tried different approaches. Given my high magical talent, I didn't think I would fail, but the results were disappointing. Maybe I misunderstood the word 'talent'.
So, I quickly opened my status, navigated to the notice tab, and tapped on the word 'legendary talent.' It gave me its information. I find this function helpful; all I have to do is click on a word to get its definition:
[Legendary Magical Talent: 10x magic reserve, 10x magic regeneration, 10x magic learning. Except for unique and bloodline magic, can learn all magic.]
So, it is just a buff. What's the use of this now? I haven't unlocked the wizard class. My mother, who was watching, came to cheer me up. Only then did I learn that people generally can use magic when they go to school, which is when they are 11 years old. What the hell? I have to wait 10 years?
I tried to think about what to do, but my mother told me that I could learn early subjects like herbology and zoology. But that's not the point of my problem. I tried to ask more, and she told me if I behave, she will give me a kid's wand in a few years. This caught my attention. So, I can awaken my magic before 11. I asked when I would get it out of curiosity, and I got the answer: most children awaken their magic at the age of 7, some as late as 11 years old. When children awaken their magic, they do what is called accidental magic. So, my wait goes from 10 years to 6 years and 2 months. When I asked how it happens, I got the very disappointing answer: it just happens when you are old enough.
So, I decided to change my plan. Since the primary class is unachievable, let's move on to the secondary class, which is force and chakra, corresponding to the Jedi and ninja classes. I got this information from clicking on their respective names:
[Jedi Class: Uses force as an energy.]
[Ninja Class: Uses chakra as an energy.]
I decided to go with chakra, as at least I have heard about it in my world. Using force reminds me of Accelerator from "A Certain Magical Index," so it might involve vector manipulation and a huge amount of calculation. Just thinking about it gives me a headache. I have no idea how much calculation is needed to do basic vector manipulation, which involves direction and magnitude alteration.
So, I decided to focus on chakra. I will also try to use vector manipulation, like adding uniformly distributed loads, calculating shear force, bending and twisting moments, etc., but on a very simple scale. I will also try to apply basic force on objects, like reducing gravity, friction, etc.
But I know there's no way I can be like Accelerator, who can control the flow of electrons, blood flow, fluid flow (both air and liquid), and alter memory by manipulating neurons. That needs some supercomputing processing power.
Now for chakra. In my previous life, I had taken yoga and read about different forms of yoga from books or the internet. I know the human body has chakra points, and many yoga practices explain these chakra points and how to awaken them. "Avatar: The Last Airbender" also explains how to release the flow of chakra in the human body. Taking all these as references, maybe I will get great results. So, it's time to start meditation.
From a General POV
Husband: "So, where is Ash?"
Wife: "Sitting and meditating again."
Husband: "Again? Who taught him meditation?"
Wife: "No one. He just thinks he will awaken magic early if he focuses. So, here we are."
Husband: "That's fine, as long as he doesn't do something dangerous like jumping from high places in hopes of awakening magic."
Wife: "That's also true, but I think he is taking it way too seriously."
Husband: "How much time does he spend like this?"
Wife: "He has been like this for 30 minutes."
Husband: "That's more impressive than most adults. I thought he would give up in 1 or 2 days, but it has been 15 days. That's some impressive spirit."
Wife: "I think it may become his habit in the future."
Husband: "That is also great, as meditation is known to increase spirituality and magic control. It will be easier for him in the future to study spiritual magic."
Wife: "Maybe I should teach him about spiritual healing."
