VANYA POV
So magic isn't real? Os it real but connected to cultivation? If so, how is connected? I always knew this world was capable of magical things after all, even though I was acclaimed ill, I was unusually sensitive to my surroundings. So, from the moment I went into that construction site, saw that egg even down to this moment, I knew everything I could sense, that comfortable feeling I got from breathing in the atmospheric air, the different colors of something I call threads entangled in this "air" that has been aiding my recovery was no ordinary "air". It was something more than that.
Turns out it was called mana. It's seems as though, I have a natural affinity towards this energy, after all, I could sense it before I even awakened a mana core. All this while Sernon has been explaining things in concern to these cultivation world I was never really surprised. I have always known that outside of this place, where I was born, there was a world far more greater than what I could have ever imagined. Imaginations do little in actualizing how the real things are in real life.
How did I know that there was more to everything and that, that warehouse used to be a magic practice ground? Well, it was because I had chanced upon an ancient ruin. I would spare you the finer details, but the result was that I received the gift of clairvoyance. Plus, I got to peep into the past, so, most of what Sernon said about this world, I was already aware of. With this gift of clairvoyance, I had already seen the appearance of Sernon in my life. There was also another person who I didn't get to see clearly, I guess the person isn't important. But I knew Sernon doesn't mean to harm me that was why I brought him back home with me. I don't trust him fully, but I do trust him a bit. Although he doesn't mean to hurt me, he is a manipulative son of a bitch! He seems to have a certain use for me. Clairvoyance has it's own limitations though, that's why I don't use it often. And ever since I last used my gift, I've felt the need to leave this continent . Something's drawing me out, it's like a part of my soul is out there. Although it's not that strong, I know it will grow in time, so I need to find out what it is that is drawing me. Until then, let us both, Sernon and I, use each other until or fullest.
