Hm… I am on the verge of my first maturation. I believe that the next year will be more than sufficient to reach Tier 1. Actually, if I get some magical blood with Subjective Reality, I could increase in Tiers quite fast. However, I kinda want to let my body get used to the gradual increase in power. I decided that from today onwards, I will drink one 'blood-shake' a day, filled with Dragon blood, Unicorn blood, Basilisk blood, and Phoenix blood. This will hurt like a bitch since the Basilisk blood will try to destroy my body, while the Phoenix blood and Unicorn blood will counteract this.
Oh well, no pain no gain. I will also start a training regimen for my immature body, nothing too serious, but I want to be fit at the very least. It should also help me contain more magical power. When I grow older, probably around five or six, I will try learning spearsmanship(?). For now, I will be exercising and learning magic. Whoo, many things to do and so little time before having to go to school… How bothersome.
As I expected, my first few 'blood-shakes' hurt like a bitch, but they were highly effective. I jumped up a Rank with my first shake, and even gained some other benefits.

Extra Lives: 4]
I gained an Ability called Pain Resistance, which does exactly what it says, and Blood Strengthening, which takes all the excess power not used by Magic Absorption and strengthens my body. By exercising, I gained a couple of Abilities called Enhanced Reflexes, which are something I would expect from Vampires, Enhanced Vitality, same thing, Enhanced Speed, Enhanced Strength, Enhanced Agility, all of which I attributed to my heritage. They 'fused' into Improved Constitution. I believe that those are due to the stimulation of my 'hidden' characteristics.
My Magic Core obviously advanced thanks to my blood-shakes. It became a Juvenile core, which I believe equates to what a student would have. I believe, based on the magic capacity, that a Tier 6 is a shitty professor, while a good professor, such as Flitwick or McGonagall, should be around Tier 8. I even gained an Ability called Merlin's Magic Apprentice, which is basically my level of mastery over Merlin's Grimoire. Oh, and Beginner Spearsmanship. The extra lives are from the 1-UP mushroom stew Mother made when I was three.
Yes, you have guessed it, a few years passed since I first used my Subjective Reality. I am now eight years old. Sometime after my third birthday, Voldemort was 'killed' by Harry Potter, but that didn't impact me and Mother in any way.
I have concluded a few things about my mother in this time: she is definitely overprotective, a border-line Yandere, a pervert, and a shotacon… and a shut-in. Where did my father even find her? Is this some sort of joke? No one must have told dear father not to stick his dick in crazy. Hell, that's like, rule number 1! Ugh, never mind.
I certainly don't mind the fact that I don't have to go to school for now, since it would be a drag. I have told Mother to invest in some good companies I knew would be fruitful, so we are literally swimming in money right now. I am sure as hell that Dumble-fuck won't allow a Vampire to enter Hogwarts, so I convinced Mother to take a trip to France and buy a house in Paris. We will be doing that in a few days. Today however, I have to escape Mother. Apparently, my Veela Charm isn't actually under control, so I am constantly attracting my own mother…
"Mother, calm down. Instead of following me, you should be teaching me how to keep the Charm under control." I said calmly while jumping over the couch.
"No! Come here, now! Let me smother you with my love!"
"I am not sure it's the right kind of love, so I'll pass." Once I said that, she fell to her knees.
"W-what? You don't love mommy anymore?" she asked while almost sobbing. Oh, now she's guilt-tripping me.
"We both know that I love you very much, so drop your act, Mother."
"Hmph! Az, you're getting more and more rebellious!"
"It's not rebellion, it's my survival instinct. Mother, have you calmed down now?"
"Yes, a little. It's difficult for me to control myself. Your charm mixes with your father's, so you remind me of him…"
Yeah, my Charm is improved due to my Vampire heritage. I mean, Vampires are supposed to be beautiful and handsome beyond 'mortal' standards, at least in mythology, so it makes sense. I am also one of the few, if not the only, Vampire-Veela hybrid, so there isn't a guide for me to follow.
'Hm… It's not like I am against the idea, but it's way too early. I think I never actually considered Mother like a mother, but more like an elder sister or something… Doesn't change the fact that we are related, but who cares? I mean, she barely even has 20 years more than me, and both Vampires and Veela live almost double as much as humans, so it's like 10 years.'
I swear that I could imagine Lady Death snickering at my situation, but I didn't mind. This new world is actually entertaining for me. Well, it will be entertaining when I get to school.
After making sure that Mother wouldn't pounce on me, nothing eventful happened. A couple of days after the event, we both got on a muggle airplane to Paris. There were some… Distasteful personages that were following us when we exited the airport in France, so I quickly took a handheld mirror and activated the Rinne Sharingan. Did you think I didn't practice using my eyes in the past few years? As if! They are too useful to waste them like that. Anyway, I placed the three men in an illusion, and ordered them to throw themselves off a bridge after informing the police of any other accomplice they may have had. Brutal? Yes. Effective? Yes. Did I feel something? Nope. Want to touch my mother? Heh, better be prepared to die a gruesome death. Having them commit suicide was actually a pretty lenient punishment.
Anyway, me and Mother toured the city, had lunch, visited the Eiffel Tower, forced a few other idiots to jump off of a bridge, and found a possible location for our new house. It was a building quite close to the Tower and was apparently haunted. There were indeed a couple of ghosts, but it was nothing that Mother or I couldn't get rid of. Actually, I have a nice idea for them. Mother contacted the real-estate agency and within two hours, we had bought the building.
We immediately went back to the place and had Silty, obviously invisible to muggle eyes, start the restoration of the building. We will have a full renovation later down the line. I left Mother on the terrace with a cup of tea and went to the two ghosts.
They were an old couple, probably two wizards that had lived here before the previous owners. Not that I cared. I used Subjective Reality to manifest two Spirit Converters, which are basically bracelet-sized magic generators. I just need to put a soul, in this case a ghost, inside and it will act like a battery pack for emergencies. I have enough Magic for what I need to do, plus my Intrinsic Abilities, but Mother barely has double my capacity, so she would be disadvantaged in a fight. I won't ever let her even see a fight, but you never know.
Back to the Spirit Converters, I threw the two bracelets against the ghosts and they were magically sucked in. I dropped a little bit of my blood on one of the bracelets to 'pair' it with my Magic Core, kinda like Bluetooth. God, how much I miss technology. I went back to Mother and gave her the bracelet.
"A bracelet? Thank you, Az!"
"Well yes, but actually no. That is a Spirit Converter, a magic battery. Drop a little of your blood on it and it will provide magic when you don't have enough."
"And where did you get this, little man?"
"Mother, I am a genius, of course I made it myself." I said shamelessly. My airhead mother is strangely sharper today. She even noticed those guys who were following us. Well, my blatant lie seemed to appease her, as she smiled and dropped some blood on the thing. We ended our day with a dinner at a classy restaurant. Oh, how much I missed good food! Nothing against British people, but their cuisine just doesn't do it for me.
The next day, we spent our time shopping in muggle stores. I actually placed a Genjutsu on Mother so that she wouldn't attract to much attention. I immediately regretted proposing to go shopping since Mother was adamant about me trying all sorts of clothes, including female ones. Why?! I get it, I'm not exactly manly, but it's not like I look like a female! Curse you, Veela Charm! Well, I had my revenge on her by taking her on some antiquated, actually very modern, roller coaster at an amusement park I saw. Hehe, revenge was sweeter than the best blood. Well, I actually noticed how she looked at some jewellery, so I decided that I will come back here next weekend and buy everything I can. Being rich is lovely. I might also treat myself to a nice watch, since wizards and witches aren't exactly fashionable. Nah, I have Subjective Reality for that.
At any rate, my goal in France has been accomplished. This house still needs wards, but I can set them up when I come back next weekend. Merlin's Grimoire had some interesting defense and counter-attack wards that will make our house more impregnable than Azkaban. If I end up attending Beauxbatons, it will serve as our residence, otherwise it will be Mother's hideout when shit hits the fan in England. More than ten years till that, so I have some time.
Continuing my current regimen will not do. From now on, my blood-sake will have True Dragon blood, Ancient Elf blood, Leviathan blood, Titan blood, Demon blood, Mermaid blood, Angel blood, and Warlock blood. That will surely speed up my Core's progress. I wouldn't even have to worry about my body bursting or something like that since I have Blood Strengthening. Actually, I wonder if I will eventually be able to obtain some characteristics from blood of the species I drink… Dragon scales, longer lifespan, increased strength, more magic, regeneration, wings… That would be quite interesting.
I will also step up my physical training and spearsmanship. I want to achieve Master Spearsmanship by my second year in school. I won't accept any compromises. I also need to finish Merlin's Grimoire and maybe learn something more… I noticed that there aren't many runes here, so maybe Scathach's Grimoire? Or maybe Odin's Grimoire… Don't know, I'll deal with that later. I should also make a manual for my spearsmanship…
