After awakening from my slumber of 16 hours, which was a lot less than I expected I would sleep for, I got up, brushed my teeth, showered and finally got a change of clothes. Even though after the whole divinity awakening, my sweat smelled extremely good, I always felt cleaner with a shower. Magic worked to clean most of the dirt and sweat off, but a shower was what truly made me feel clean.

My hair now went down to my waist, which I usually put into a Pony tail with my bangs covering my forehead. Trimming my bangs was something Aroura had taught me, while it was also a style that many back on earth used to have. My hair was a lot more golden than any of my family members, who all had a semi light blonde instead of a golden tint to their hair. My father and my brothers all had dirty blond/ Silver hair instead of the golden hair that me, my mother, my sister and my grandma have.

What I did realise while I was showering was my chest, which had been growing larger in the last year or so. It was nothing like my mother's or even Gen's, but for a 6 year old, it was big enough to make it a slightly nuisance.

'I mean, I should have expected this right? I've been growing at least 2 times faster than everyone I know, so it only makes sense that my body matures faster than someone my age. Even though I am growing quickly, I wont hit my adolescence until I am actually 10, because people in this world see teenage ageing as the construction of mana veins, not the increase in height or maturity.

I had thought that my early start in mana manipulation would have give ma even a slight advantage on the rest, but apparently I needed that head start or I would have been really behind! My mana veins are being completely reconstructed to become more suitable and ergonomic for my Divine mana to go through. Right now, the only way I can use my Divine mana is through my eyes that have already developed better mana veins, and also through my normal spells.

No matter how hard I were to try to filter out my mana, there is now way to stop my spells from having traces of divinity within it. The constant invisible aura I release has nothing to do with my mana veins being undeveloped/ not developed enough. I first thought that the pressure coming out of my body was because my mana veins cant handle the divine mana coming from my mana heart, but apparently that was just the presence of divine mana within me that caused that problem.

Juilam had informed me that when I get a grasp over using my divine mana, I can finally change that pressure emanating from me into either more pressure, or a cloak of some kind that could hide my presence, teleport me, or even filter out poison or harmful substances within the air.

Finally, after a few weeks, I had realised why my soul flame had told me not use divine spells back then. Even though I was going through my awakening and had almost an infinite amount of divine mana to use, the divine mana that had circulated within me when I used the final punch had destroyed the mana veins within my right arm. I could only see some specks of the injury within my veins right now, but minor scars were left behind from that. It should eventually fully heal, but if I were to make a mistake like that when I am not awakening, I would have been in some deep sh*t right now.

When I finally got to my room again, I decided to change my clothes once again. This time I wore a black turtle neck that covered everything from my neck to my arms up to my wrist. Under it, I wore a black mini skirt my mother forced me to wear. Finally, I added a white long blazer with the white heels I have to wear. My legs were pretty much shown to the entire world which made me extremely uncomfortable.

I finally walked out of my room with a huff and a sigh, realising how much of my life I really am in control of.

'I can't wait to become an adult again. Life becomes a lot easier when I have my freedom' I inwardly complained.

After eating, getting ready and going out to the inner region of the town, we decided to go shopping for some clothes, decorations and other birthday stuff. I don't actually want to celebrate my Birthday, but what can I do when the choice is not within my hands?

after shopping for the day, we went back home, at dinner, Did everything we needed to do and went back to sleep. Well, they went back to sleep while I snuck out to the forest and hunted for a few unintelligent beasts. I returned before sunrise and showered really quickly before acting like I had just woken up.

We for some reason went shopping again, even though we really didn't need anything else to complete the party other than presents, and no matter what world I'm in, I don't think I should be present when someone is buying me a gift.

After that whole thing, me, grandma, mom and Aroura went to Elaina's house to say hi. Apparently the party was going to be held in Elaina's house, which is awkward because a few weeks ago I had punched Elaina unconscious without a speck of remorse.

Eventually, we reached their homes, knocked on the door and waited for them to answer.

After around 30 seconds of waiting, the butler finally opened the door and greeted us with a small smile while welcoming us in. My mother asked if Elaina was here, and the butler just nodded gently.

Eventually, we all walked through the door and moved towards the living room. Cups of coffee were immediately brought to us the moment we sat down, as if they were expecting visitors and had the coffee ready. The coffee was not reheated and looked extremely fresh, even though that might just be the doing of a magician with a good affinity with the fire element.

"Pandora! It's been so long! How had your training been going for the last few weeks" Asked a red haired man as he walked through the arch doorway. This was Rak, my tutor, and also one of the only people who witnessed by awakening. He had thankfully been quite this whole time about my awakening, waiting for me to explain to my parents and family what happened rather than him explaining everything himself.

"It was quite good but extremely painful and tiring. You know what they say though, you gotta work hard to move forwards in life" I replied with a sigh.

He looked at me inquisitively before laughing to himself and stating "Wise words for a six year old" and continuing by asking "So how is your control of your elements?".

This was clearly an open ended question for me to tell him what I had told my parents and what everyone in this room was allowed to know. I looked at him with a slight smile while my grandma arched her brows, understanding what he was doing and realising that I might be hiding many things from them.

"Been working on my earth and fire elemental control. Using pure mana is a pretty good way to learn how to control mana correctly and efficiently, while using spells up to the advanced level allows you to summon them without any hand seals" I said, indirectly telling him not to talk about anything but my fire and earth magic.

"Silent Casting?" He asked with the rest of my family except my grandmother entering a state of amazement.

According to Juilam, Rune-less casting was never supposed to be an option for humans.

----

"Why can't humans preform Rune-less casting like beasts" I asked while trying to balance on a pole, slowly regaining the mobility I once had.

"Well, it is the same way animals cannot use magic. Humans have simply not evolved to the level yet, at least not most of them." Juilam replied with one of his eyes closed and the other being half open as he laid on the floor with his head laying on his paws.

"What do you mean? Humans can still use magic" I asked while shifting my arms and centre of gravity to avoid falling.

"Yes, but there is a single difference between humans and animals. Humans have intelligence while animals work on their instincts with minimal use of the brain. While humans were able to capitalize on their intelligence and used it to make magic accessible to most people with half a brain, other races do not have the intelligence to supply their ancestors with tools and things that will allow them to use magic"

"Humans, like you for example, can evolve into their version of a beast. Their bodies become stronger and more durable while their mana control and efficiency sky rockets to another level. This usually comes with the advantages of Rune-less casting, which allows a magic user to create many more personal spells and construct their mana in many better ways by simply imagining it." Juilam finally stopped speaking

"Then why are awakening so important if they aren't even evolution?" I asked while falling of the pole I had been standing on with one leg for the last few dozen minutes.

"And that is where you are wrong, Juilam replied, now opening both his eyes and continuing "The complete formation of the mana heart at the age of six is actually a semi evolution. Those things you call priests can awaken the potential within you when your body is strong enough at the age of, and even though this might be limiting to some in the future, this gives the magician more likely to evolve naturally into the next true evolution when they become strong enough. That is why you rarely see any peasants creating mana hearts before the age of 12 or human schools teaching magic until they reach their academy years or are self taught." Juilam declared matter-of-factly.

"Rune-less actually, no need for hand signs, seals or verbal chanting for anything under the lord level" I corrected

"Damn... You need a new tutor because I don't think I am qualified to teach you anymore" Rak sighed.

After speaking for a bit, Gen finally joined us just to tell us all about her dates and the strong bonds that her and Rak have in an almost gloating manner. I looked at Rak just to see him beet red curled up into the closest thing to a ball someone could become while sitting down on a chair and keeping their feet on the ground.. I couldn't help but laugh at his expense, however, seeing me laughing at him, he decided to try and embarrass me instead, which lead him to become an insult dummy for me and Gen.
