Ch 4 - Training

After some rest and liberal use of my new breathing technique my mana core was filled back up and I went back into my mindscape.

I hooked up the vacuum to the laptop with the USB cord and used my intent to will all of my memories to go into the laptop with magic.

Once done I got rid of the cord and vacuum and opened the computer.

I created two different files on for my present life and one for my past life.

I sorted the memories into each folder and then I sorted all of the memories by date which promptly knocked me out.

When I woke up I could remember things a lot clearer.

My mind was even faster now.

It was not at the level of an actual computer but I think imagining one boosted my thinking to a high level.

I think if I get a better understanding of programming and computers I could further increasing my brains processing speeds and memory.

Anyways I went back into my mindscape and put a password on the computer.

This is good enough for now.

With the outer shields and a lock on my memories unless I am completely overpowered and my mind destroyed no one will be able to reach my mind.

With that done I decided to start practicing legilimency and maybe compulsion magic.

I climbed up the latter out of the stone room under my closet and found Minny disguised as me in the bed.

I sent Minny to steal some money from local drug dealers for future use.

I also had her go and find furniture and see if she could set up a bathroom in the underground area.

I even wanted her to create a secret exit out of the tool shed in the backyard so I can leave the house unseen without even leaving the cupboard.

With that done I cracked the door open and saw Vernon sitting on the couch.

I started by sending out a pulse of magic with the intent to make him want a snack from the kitchen.

I tried it a few times and he actually ended up doing it.

I continued to practice giving him random things to do.

Finally I put a compulsion for him to look at the closet and as soon as his eyes met mine I sent a magic string from my head to his with the intent to enter.

I found myself in a black void filled with glowing balls, similar to my mindscape before training.

I didn't know how to find memories so I tried to send out a pulse to show his last birthday.

A memory came shooting towards me and when I grabbed it I noticed that it had cracked a bit.

It seems I need to be more gentle to avoid destroying memories and the mind.

I continued to practice until I was five on different compulsions, reading surface thoughts, and diving into the mind of the people at school and at home.

I finally got to the point where no one notices anything is wrong and I can even make it so that there is a time delay so I can spend more time in some ones mind then what passes outside.

I'm going to try and apply this to my own mind so that I can slow down my perception which could help me think and even help me in a fight to plan my next move.

Besides practicing magic having to do with the mind, I also started training my telekinesis with coins and rocks.

I increased the number as I got better to practice my control as one part of the training and I found heavier rocks to lift in the park to increase the potency of my telekinesis.

I also decided to exercise my body.

I visited different local dojos and read the minds of the instructors to know how to exercise as well as the various martial arts including, karate, jujitsu, muay tai, chinese kenpo, kendo, and a few more.

I even visited a gun range to learn how to handle them as I though that making a magic gun could be cool in the future.

I even visited the local college and scanned for advance knowledge in physics, computers, programming, biology, and every language I could find.

I continued to train in non just magic but also mundane subjects as I was sure this would give me many ideas in the future.
