Chereads / Einar : The forsaken / Chapter 2 - Chosen path

Chapter 2 - Chosen path

My aim is to learn magic and become a top tier mage in this world.

But since I lack any real magic teacher I decided to hit the books.

But then I realized

I CAN'T READ !

How could I forgot such a key detail to all this. After my horrible realization of my ignorance I instantly ran out of my room to find my mother .

I later found her outsider doing some dishes .

' Mother' I say to her with intense cuteness activated.

' Yes Einar ',

' Can you teach me how to read ' I asked her.

And immediately she exploded with joy and lefted me up into her arms.

"oh my baby boy finally wants to learn magic !"She exclaimed .

But how

How did she know that was what I was up to..I mean I didn't necessarily mention anything about magic.

I kept on wondering this as she swang me from side to side. Until I threw up on her dress.

Flash forward . So turns out my mother was a mage.

A B rank mage to be exact, she also practiced some witchcraft in her early years so that's how she knew what I was thinking.

She can basically read my mind .

Well there goes surprise birthday parties thanks alot mom.

So we dived into basic reading and writing and mom made me study like crazy.

" No child of mine will be ignorant " she said as she slapps me on the head to keep me awake.

So it took about three months but I finally learned how to read and write . Take that school !

And now it's time to learn some magic. I ran around the house searching for anything magic related until I found an old box of magic text books under my parent's bed .

Among other things (hehehehe).

And so I locked myself inside my room for three days straight . Reading as much as I could and trying to get a better understanding of magic.

So here's the basic layout.

Magic is just magic.

It emis an essential part of existence and natural balance in nature.

It has four main core elements fire, water, earth and air .

Other magic cores such as lighting and ice are derived from these four.

So basically anyone can use magic like seriously anyone even a bum like you . All you gotta do is be able to manifest your mana control into a physical form and give it shape . Also whenever performing a spell you have to invision it working or it won't work in other words magic is a bunch of self confidence bull crap.

When I was all done with my reading it was time to try it out . I wasn't really sure what my magic core element was so I was basically gonna wing it.

I stood in out front yard and begun to silence myself. I was to separate my physical and spiritual body so I could harness my mana .

Once I attained that it was time to spread the mana all over my body.

I could feel it. It was like a warm electric current Going through my veins and bones . Every single muscle in my body was Ten times more aware then usual.

I lifted my hand out and pointed to the sky where I was gonna aim my spell.

A basic Attack spell should do it.

I breathed in and out and concentrated all my mana at my palm. Building up immense pressure within my hand , just waiting to explore like an overfilled bubble.

" Let's Go !" I exclaimed as I let the bubble pop. A massive amount of light Emmitted from my hand and a water based attacked appeared at the tips of my hand just before the spell could be fired.

The pressure was too great.

'AHHH'.

I was pushed back by my own power . The spell went astray and was heading right for my father .

" Father look out " I cried out to him as my voice quivered.

But for some reason my father seemed unfazed. He quickly deflected the attack with his blade with easy and it disappeared into the sky.

My father then walked up to me slowly. I could tell by the serious expression on his face he was unhappy.

" Einar " he called out to me in his masculine voice .

"Yes father" I replied as I stared down in shame and fear .

" Are you the one responsible for that ?".

As soon as he said those words the atmosphere got heavy and I couldn't bring myself to say anything to him.

He repeated his question and out of fear I quickly answer him .

" I see " he says to me .

I then feel a hand on my head , as I look up I notice my father giving me a warm and comforting smile as he looked to me .

" well kiddo , looks like you've got a nact for magic " .

At the moment I couldn't help but realize how cool my father was, At that moment he was my inspiration to get stronger and become just as cool as he was.

" Father can you teach me how to fight" I asked him as he looked at me.

For a minute he was hesitate and remained quite until he finally responded by nodding his head in approval .

Now my mind is made up . Unlike my past life where I had Nothing to live for I had a second chance here.

And so I was gonna become a Great warrior like my father and an amazing mage like my mother .

Because why not I'm Einar Stonbrol after all.
