-Myne-
It was close to my second winter here, and I seemed to still be shell shocked by how my life has changed a little over a year ago. First, I was reborn into another world into a poor family that seemingly had no idea on how to even properly clean a house. Then, I was given an incurable sickness that was apparently an abundance of mana with no outlet. My thoughts as everything was laid before me was 'WTH'.
Then came the realization that the world I was in didn't have books, well easily accessible ones that is. When I learned that books were kept trapped by the powers of nobility, and were so expensive they were pawned off to pay their depths, I truly felt the despair of the poorer, and bottom class of society.
"Myne! Come on, we gotta gather wood!" shouted Lutz as he seemingly chopped me on the top of my head. "OWW, Lutz!" I shouted as I rubbed the spot where he hit me, a slight cartoonist bump forming on my noggin. I got up and began gathering wood while also letting the mana within me flow through out my body.
Enhancement magic was the greatest thing I was able to learn. I was able to grow my strength to the levels of someone my age and above. The amount of mana I had was leagues above others, according to teacher anyway. As I was speedily gathering wood, I was observing the world around me through my enhanced eye sight. Seeing the grain of the different woods, the differing details of things like mushrooms and berries was quite thrilling.
As I then met up with Lutz near the gate with the others, I was covered in a calmness that seemed to be perfect, with the winding sunset painting a warm picture of pink and orange and the depths of the setting sun was something that could only seemed divine in nature. "So Lutz, what do you think about our new boss?" I asked him as I held his hands, walking at a speed that allowed me to keep up with the children, and it seemingly surprised them that they didn't have to slow down for me to follow.
"Hmm, Im not sure" he said as he seemed to contemplate as we made way to our respective apartment buildings. "What do you mean?" I asked him. "Well, he is weird no doubt about it, I mean, hiring kids at a bar is quite strange" he said, which out loud made me realize the weirdness of the situation.
"But maybe its normal in his world. Hey, was it normal in yours?" he asked me as I responded with a shake on my head. "Nope! that would be considered illegal" I said to him. "Huh, other worlds is still strange to me, unlike our own world" said Lutz as he finally left to his own home and I left for mine. As I entered the door, I was greeted warmly by my mother who was doing some sewing.
"Hey Mom" I said to her as I put up the firewood I collected and began working on dinner. It was my turn to make dinner this time and I was going for some seasoned chicken and vegetable soup. It didn't take long for it to be done and I was serving dinner using my magical ability as practice.
It was still weird for my family for me to have these strange and mystical powers they only believed existed in fairy tales. It was quite a new development but my mom was able to find practical uses for my ability to conjure things to use like conjuring water, or using my ability to heat up certain materials and such. It was going to make the winter easier, I'll say.
After I got dinner done, I was working on Friedas hairpin design. It was gonna be made of roses of red and white working together in a bouquet design. The two hairpins I was going to need was going to be made by Lutz. It was a way we distributed work among us and allows us to accomplish our goals, as per our work directive.
It didn't take long to complete with my mom watching and Tuuli trying to imitate the flowers with her very own crochet needles which were carved for her by dad. When night time hit, everyone went to bed except me as I was dallying the night away. I wanted to practice using my magic in other ways not meant for combat and body enhancement.
I began by conjuring a small ball of water. I was molding the mana and was uttering a small incantation to give a concrete image to form the spell. The spell appeared stable and I began to move it around, up and down, left and right until I felt like that I could control it with some precision.
I then began by spreading out the water in a thin film of water. I lowered it onto the floor and began by moving it around to collect the dirt and such that the water almost immediately became dirty. I threw the water out and began to conjure more water and collected more of the dirt and saw the simmering shine of the wood beneath.
"Whew, now that's progress" I said to myself as I began cleaning more of the place, makeing sure I collected the water which seemed into the wood so it doesn't expand and cause issues with the buildings integrity. After a while, the layer of dirt and grime that covered the place was gone and all I could see was the glossy wood.
"Finally, a clean floor" I said to myself as I admired the new surroundings as I had a fleeting thought. 'Maybe, just maybe, I might be able to survive in this world.

Scritch and scratch, the sounds of a quill etching words onto parchment were familiar sounds that permeated my room. Standing inside was my attendants, the one I trusted the most being Frey, the tall boy with purple hair.
I was writing a report to my brother, the Aub Ehrenfest, and something arrived in the room, an envelope with a special seal on the wax, indicating its high importance. I dismissed my attendants and headed towards my own room, reaching a wall that was embedded with a fae stone and went inside.
It was a study that required an absurd amount of mana to enter, and considering the high priests level of mana, I am the only one who should be able to get in here. It was in this study I opened the letter and perused its contents.
Hey Big Brother!
Sylvester here! I am here to tell you about all the things we learned from the man called Thomas
'Hmm' I thought as I red through the rest of the letter in my hands, and then destroyed it after it was memorized. It was essentially details of the 'other worlds', something I was still unused to. 'Maybe the gods know of this?' I thought and remembered the last time I talked to a god was at the academy, and I wondered if they would still answer my prayers.
Leaving the thought aside, I retrieved some paper to write a letter with and began the echoing sounds of the scratching on paper, relaying my thoughts back to the annoying bastard I call my brother.
[A/N: Sorry for the shorter chapter, I didn't know what else to write. I hope you guys like this as the next chapter is coming. Im thinking on finally exploring the jujutsu world and maybe even touch on the other worlds as well in further chapters. Anyhow, enjoy!]
