_______________________________________

It's a new day, and I'm feeling a lot better compared to yesterday, still a bit sore but it's not something that will bother me. After getting up I clean my bed and get dressed before leaving my room heading for the living room. Same as yesterday Kiritsugu is already there sitting at the table with what I can easily identify as take away from the packaging, however seeing as the kitchen is still charcoal from yesterday, there really was no choice.

The good new is that the kitchen along with the rest of the house will be fixed today as repairs are almost done, the power of money truly make the world spin, or else these repairs would take weeks rather days.

After breakfast I ask Kiritsugu

"what's the plan for today"

Rather then answering me he passed me a book, a hand written book on what appears to be a basic outline on the moonlit world and magecraft.

"You will read that book and learn the basic of this world before we start with magecraft training tonight"

Taking the book I start reading.

It took about six hours to read the whole book, not because it was hard or long, no, it was because of the visitors we had about an hour in. Kiritsugu had a visit from the Fujimura family, Raiga and his granddaughter Taiga and let me tell you, I heard she was a hyperactive child in the body of an adult, but as a child she's even worse, I thought I was the child between us but no it seems that the role is reversed when it comes to us.

I couldn't even touch the book till they left which wasn't for four hours. FOUR HOURS, I dealt with that woman child, I have no idea how Shiro put up with her for 10 years, may God have mercy on my soul.

After finishing the book it was only four in the afternoon, so I decides to spend the next two hours till training watching anime.

It finally hit six and all the workers have gone home, the house is completely done and somehow the kitchen is fixed, I don't know how, I have been here the whole time and I don't remember anyone coming in to fix it, once again, no one came in so how is it fixed it makes no sense, are there workers mages that's the only thing I can think of that explains this.

leaving the house we head to the shed, which looks different from yesterday, the boxes are packed away the broken glass is gone and there a magic circle in the middles like a star with objects on the points.

"This is a magic circle ritual created by my father it will allow us to identify your origin and element"

"Your father what was he like"

"As far as magus go, he was a genius and genuine magus through and through, he killed a lot of people before he was stopped. He may have been a monster but he was also a genius"

" So, what do I do"

"Just sit down, and flow you mana through the circle, but first I'll help you create a trigger"

"Actually dad I have an idea for a trigger"

"Really"

"Yep, In the book it said after you awaken your Circuits, you need to create a mental trigger to turn them on and off. So I thought and tried to make my own."

"In that case let's test it"

"Right"

Closing my eyes I focus on my trigger, something close to me that will give me a mental jolt. I'm back in that dark river, with the shockwaves in the distance, then it happens. 'STAB' Opening my eyes I say the word "Realise". 'JOLT' I feel my circuits come to life humming with power, however, it's strange, I can feel my 'OD', my mana flowing through my circuits, but I feel another energy, dormant, waiting for me to call on it.

Before I can think more on it I hear Kiritsugu.

"Good work, now flow your mana through the circle, it will feel like it reading you very being, don't resist, it will show us your origin and element".

Doing as he says I flow my mana through the magic circle andy whole world shifts. I'm no longer in the shed, no longer in my body, my body, like a transparent version of my current body, standing in the middle of an endless dark plane, nothing, no matter where I look it's completely empty.

No, HOLLOW, a world of NOTHINGNESS, continuing to look look around I run, fast, at an incredible SPEED I run, untill I leave this world, going deeper. I see it, an amazing world of miracles a true FANTASY world, however like me everything is moving at an incredible SPEED. Soon the world flashes and starts fading away, however before returning back to my body I see something familiar in the distance, realising what it is, shocks me to my core. I finally understand what that was and what it means, before I can continue my thoughts the world fades and I'm back in the shed with Kiritsugu looking at me.

"What did you find"

Looking at him I reply.

"My origin is Fantasy and speed, and my element is hollow, nothingness and speed".

Frowning Kiritsugu responds.

"Hmmm fantasy and speed is interesting, however you elements are gonna be hard to work with, with what we have, I am not sure how to train someone with imaginary elements, let alone speed what ever that can do other then the obvious, allowing you to run fast"

"Imaginary elements"

"Yes, hollow and nothingness are the two aspects of imaginary elements. The hollow element is best defined as possible but not in the physical plane, it also give's access to imaginary number space which is in essence another layer of space, that exists seperate to ours, it is difficult and extremely dangerous to use, however I have heard of families who specialises in using it to create portals between two locations".

"like teleportation"

"Similar but different, it's more akin to opening a door to another location. Now unlike hollow, nothingness can best be defined as not possible but materialises anyway. I'm not very knowledgeable on this topic but the best I can give you for this would be true magic, you remember what they were from the book right"

"Yes, true magic are things that are impossible the replicate with mundane means, thus referred to miracles, like the Kaleidoscope and heavens feel, which allow multiverse travel and materialisation of the soul respectively".

"Correct, I could be wrong here but nothingness is like true magic in that it couldn't happen but happens anyway. However don't think there on the same level, just because a floating rock is not possible in nature but can be achieved with magecraft, that doesn't mean it's on the same level as true magic. Do you understand."

"Yes"

"Good, I'm gonna call some old contacts, see if I can get my hands on some resources to train you with, untill then I'll teach you three basic spells, structural analysis, projection and reinforcement."

"Cool, but what about my other element and origins"

"Right, almost forgot about that, this is just my theory but, fantasy seem like it would give you an affinity for things that deny reality as we perceive it, it's limits depends or how far you can take it, while speed which is both origin and element, making you an incarnation gives you incredible talent in the area of speed related magecratft, such as acceleration and potentially even temporal manipulate, allowing limited manipulation of time"

"That sounds amazing, I can't wait to start"

"How far you go will depend on how hard you work. BUT you have to remember one mistake can cost you your life"

"Got it, I'll be careful"

"You better, now let's get started on the basic spells we'll start with projection. As far as magecraft goes it essentially useless, conversely that makes it one of the safest spells to learn and start out with"

And that's how my first magecraft lesson started.
