Chapter 2: KALEORAS city

"big brother.."

"you knew that, right?"

"..i.. yes, i knew..."

the room that felt heavy before was now also freezing, gusts of cold air came out of me messing and moving some light things like pencils and papers.

"h-big brother i wanted to tell you, i really wanted to, but father, he-he was going to-"

'i know, i don´t think it was of your own free will, it is most likely that father forbade you to reveal this information to me beforehand'

'yes, that´s surely the reason for it even so...'

"..alone, get out of here.. and tell the family that tonight i´ll have dinner alone in my room"

i then activated all the basic protections that each room of the mansion had, which included strengthened walls and doors and anti-espionage magic.

"¡fuck, fuck, fuck! ¡¡SHIT!!"

with my emotions out of control, the small gusts of wind that used to only move some papers and pencils were now strong winds, dragging clothes all over the place and slamming the doors and drawers of the closets.

...

A few minutes passed and all the fluctuations of magic calmed down, now Elleric was sitting on his messy bed completely bathed in sweat, his body trembled constantly and the simple fact of breathing made his chest hurt.

"ahhh this is better... I guess it's time to check it out who knows? maybe, just maybe as someone who comes from the earth I have some tricky advantage that will help me get ahead with my situation".

'although even saying it out loud doesn't convince me'.

"OPEN STATUS"

[name: Elleric Falco von Lionflame
race: human
bloodline: Lionflame-Falco
physical: F+
magic: C
magical element: (wind) (water)
innate skills: (blocked)
acquired skills/magic: (wind bullet)(cutting wind)(water gun)(minor tornado)].

"what I expected, I guess, I have neither a physical ability nor a decently strong magic, indeed, I don't even have a defensive ability or magic."

'wind and water, that's one of the reasons why that old fox despises me, because I don't have the affinity with fire characteristic of the other members of the family, even though I have a rare dual affinity with water and wind that's still not enough for him'.

"well... whatever, even being an outcast I still have to get stronger and if I can't do it here then it will be at the academy, the hero and his group of friends with troubled pasts and identities can take care of the big problems by themselves but if I die by a random monster or villain it's going to be horrible."

after resting for a few more minutes, he looks around and grabs some clothes, after sweating so much he needed another shower.

...

Now clean and a little more relaxed I took a small journal, some pens, some money, turned off the protections and proceeded to call a maid to clean up the mess I made when my magic got out of control.

"I'll be back later, clean my room and when you're done leave a basket of fruit on the nightstand."

It was natural for him not to thank or ask the servants, that's what he had been taught as a nobleman should be, that was Elleric's natural attitude, I still couldn't quite get used to it but, honestly, with everything that had happened recently I was too tired for the formalities.

"will become young master Elleric".

I just nodded and continued on my way to the front door, the sun did not feel particularly strong, yet neither the earth self nor this body was used to going out often, always calling the servants of the house for whatever he needed, preferring to spend his time locked up practicing his magic or studying the noble arts.

'we are somewhat similar in this respect, however you can't have such terrible physique here, not without having some unfair advantage or cheating skills to compensate for it'.

city of embers KALEORAS- MC POV

You are reading story woke up as my own character in a remake at novel35.com

walking through the busy streets of the city, I see all kinds of people, tall, short, obese, thin, muscular and other more striking with pointed ears or animal tails, the latter were sometimes viewed with suspicion by merchants or mothers accompanied by their children.

'discrimination? no, it's caution and... fear, 30 years ago there was a war with the beast kingdom BASTEPH, the problem was supposed to have been solved with a political marriage or something but despite the best efforts of the current kings of both kingdoms some old grudges are still present in the population.'

"hey man, give me 3 of those."

"sure young man, here you go, that's 9 coppers".

I paid the old man and took the skewers with me while I looked for interesting things around town and wrote down interesting places in the notebook, I was not going to dare to go to dark or suspicious places, I can defend myself from riffraff and normal people but bandits, organ traffickers, kidnappers and others would be happy to see me.

'in fact, come to think of it, this world has an official name for its currency, GELA, but it is divided into copper GELA, silver GELA, gold GELA and platinum GELA coins, so everyone just calls the coins as copper, silver, gold and platinum.'

the distribution is as follows: 10 copper makes 1 silver, 100 silver makes 1 gold and 100 gold makes 1 platinum.

'I remember that the coins that are normally used by commoners are copper and silver, wealthy merchants and low nobles use gold as their hard currency while only the high nobility and royalty of the countries use platinum for trade, it can be said that in addition to being the strongest currency in trade platinum is also recognized as a symbol of prestige.'

I didn't find anyone who recognized me around town, yes, sometimes they looked at me a little bit because of my thin body and pale skin but then they shrugged their shoulders as if nothing had happened.

I ended up unknowingly arriving to a magic store, in this place they didn't sell weapons or items needed for adventurers specifically, they didn't even sell potions, only enchanted items.

I ended up entering the store the moment I saw the storage ring on display, however there was more than just the ring, wands, staffs, monster baits, skill scrolls, enchanted cloaks and many other items could be found inside.

"don't be quiet, brat just say what you need and then get the hell out of my store" the old lady manning the counter seemed to have a bad temper and with her wrinkles and scowl gave her even more of a grumpy look.

"well then old hag do you have something to test my affinity for the space element?"

"I'm telling you now, I'm only 142 years old... here, try this to see if you're the lucky talented magician" the old woman continued ranting when she placed a hat on the table, it was like those typical hats of the magicians in the shows she saw on TV.

looking at the hat with curiosity i tried to send some threads of my mana to it but nothing happened, i tried sending more mana but it didn't work either, then i tried sending mana to the hollow part of the hat and still there was no reaction.

the old woman looked bored, as if she had seen the same scene a hundred times.

"First, I don't think I'm anyone special, I was just curious, and second, do you have any books on magic theory? I want some basic and some advanced ones" I already expected this result when I asked him to test my aptitude, there are not many mages that can use space type spells, there are only a handful of them among humans, besides, even if I had the aptitude for it I still wouldn't have enough money to buy anything related to the space element, items like that are worth 2 digits of gold at least and I didn't bring that much money with me, instead, books can help me to develop and understand the magic theories that would increase the efficiency and control over my magic.

'I think I could create my own spells if I tried hard enough'.

The ancia did not speak and only looked at me with suspicion, however, she went quietly to look for some books on the shelf near the wall.

"here, I guess I couldn't get the confidence out of your head without opening it first but reading won't make you any dumber or so I hope, anyway, here, 3 books on basic theory and one on advanced theory, just don't fry your head or try anything crazy without supervision or you'll give my store a bad reputation."

the first 3 books were: (mana, magic and magical phenomena) by Farle Bidleman, (differences between magician's mana and environmental mana) by Owen Plarre, (elements, plants and magical beasts) by Meridy Vaililer.

the last book was curious because it seemed almost as if the old woman knew what she was looking for.

(creation, first steps in spell creation) by Margaret Plarre.

I raised an eyebrow at the latter, as if to ask him how he knew I wanted this.

"oh please, kid I've been in this business for almost 100 years, I can tell what any customer is looking for at a glance, now, that's 5 gold and 3 silver pay up and get the hell out of my sight."

"well, whatever, thank you and goodbye" I said goodbye to the lady and went back to my room in the family mansion.

'I still can't say that I feel happy, but that may change soon, after all we are talking about magic here.'

"every kid's dream, I may know how to use a little magic thanks to memories but that and experiencing it first hand are two completely different things."
