Books

It had been 2 years since I got reincarnated.

I could now roughly speak this world's language. And I am already stable on my feet and walk.

Honestly being a baby is so damn inconvenient. I could only watch days passed by being breastfed by my mother, having my butt cleaned up, and getting taken care of by our maid.

After 2 years in this world, I finally accepted this situation. Dad is a cool guy, Mom is loving, and our maid is exciting.

Yes you read that right. I'm excited with our maid.

Seeing a REAL maid is different from the so-called maids in a 'maid' cafe. She's the Kuudere type(without seeing the 'dere' yet).

Mature older women(MILF), glasses, maid outfit, kuudere, she had too many moe attributes in one person. Our maid is Super Overpowered.

Oops, there I go again. I'm sorry there good kids, it seems I got too much excited about maids there. This is why otakus are so gross and creepy.

Okay back to the story...

After two years, I was able to know the names of my parents.

While watching me walking outside the yard, I could hear them talking.

Zenith: "As soon as you take your eyes off him, he slips off somewhere,"

Paul: "Hey, so long as he's good and healthy, I was worried back when he was born and he never cried."

Zenith: "He doesn't cry now, either, does he?"

Hmm... I don't cry huh. Well I am not the type to cry when hungry, I'm used to eating only one meal a day when budget is tight.

Even though I just recently started to walk, I learned a lot from being able to move around. The first thing I learned was that this was definitely the home of a rich family. The house was a wooden, two-story structure with over five separate rooms, and we had the one maid on staff.

Ah, there I go again talking about maids so let's not go there...

Just a while ago, I had an accident of falling down from the chair. Mom used some kind of powers to heal my pain, and that's the time I discovered Magic.

Mages huh...

They're just useless if they ran out of MP and if a warrior gets close to them. But their offensive powers is without a doubt lethal.

For now, I'll keep in mind about it. If it is possible that I can become a Mage, then I'll grab the opportunity.

Next, what do you think of Mages? Of course they should be smart and scholarly with years of studying under their belts. In other words they are knowledgeable. And to be a knowledgeable, I need to study.

Alright then, let's start by reading books!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Or so I should say... But I'm still not that good with letters of this world.

Days passed and my dad often reads me the books in the study.

So after a few months or so of studying, I could finally read this world's writing system fluently.

These were the five books in our house.

Wandering the World, a reference guide to the various countries of the world and their unique characteristics.

The Ecology and Weaknesses of Fittoan Monsters, which detailed the various monstrous creatures of the Fittoa Region, where they lived, and how to deal with them.

A Textbook of Magic, a wizard's manual of attack spells, ranging from the Beginner to Advanced levels.

The Legend of Perugius, a fairytale about a summoner named Perugius and his companions, who battle a demon and save the world in a classic good-versus-evil epic.

The Three Swordsmen and the Labyrinth, a tale of action and adventure where three master swordsmen of different styles meet and head into the depths of the titular labyrinth.

Woah! Textbook of Magic, there really is one here.

Reading the Textbook, it taught me of some basic knowledge of this world's Magic System.

First, magic came in three types: Attack magic, to do battle against others; Healing magic, to treat the wounds of others; and Summoning magic, to call things forth. And that was it. There seemed to be lots of other things you could do with magic, but according to the textbook, magic was something birthed and developed in battle, and therefore not used much outside of combat or hunting.

Second, you needed magical power in order to use magic—meaning, anyone could use magic so long as they had magical power. There were chiefly two ways of doing this: using one's innate magical power or drawing on the magical power imbued in an object. Either would suffice.

Third, there were two ways of performing magic: incantation and magic circles. This didn't need too much explanation: It simply referred to reciting words or inscribing mystic patterns to cast a spell, respectively. In the old days, magic circles were the chief source of magical power, but in modern times, incantations were far more commonplace. In older times, even the shortest magical incantations took one or two minutes—not exactly something you could use in the heat of battle. But once you'd inscribed a magic circle, you could use it over and over again.

Incantations started becoming the norm when one magician succeeded at greatly shortening them. The simplest such incantations were reduced to around five seconds, and consequently became the only way people utilized Attack magic. For the more complex rituals involved in Summoning magic, where greater efficiency wasn't attainable, magic circles remained the primary means.

Four, the amount of magical power someone had was pretty much determined at birth. In your typical RPG, you gain more MP as you level up, but things didn't work that way in this world. Almost everyone was stuck where they were.

The book also said that one's level of magical power was inherited. I knew my mother was able to use Healing magic, so maybe it was all right to have some expectations for myself.

Even if I'm not going to have large MP, it will be fine if I can do the bare minimum of Magic.

The most proficient of wizards, the book said, could cast spells without incanting anything at all–or drastically shorten the incanting time at the very least. I'll aim to be like that.

And most importantly since I'm a reincarnated, my knowledge of the past world will surely be useful.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Several Months passed

Somehow I found some flaws in the book I read.

For example the Magical Energy of a person can't grow no matter what, but that's just b*llshit.

I tried doing some meditation doing cross leg and I could feel the Mana Flow of the environment.

Using my imagination of the stories I know, I tried sucking the Mana particles in the surroundings and feel my body being filled with Mana.

Somehow I got a concept of something new about this world's Magic System, It's only my theory though.

It's like my body is a truck, and the package it's carrying inside it is the Mana. The stronger the body, the more Mana you could store inside.

I have read it somewhere about this before too. I think it is the Manga series called Magi where the protagonist is a Mage with infinite Mana.

In the Magnostat arc, the Mana connected to the Rukh was sealed using only the Mana inside his body. He trained his body and his Magic Power and the output of each of his Magic Spells got even stronger.

I read the quote of the big boobed professor Myers saying, 'A healthy Magic dwells on a healthy body'.

So because of that knowledge this past months, I have put physical training into my schedule too. Most of it are running building up my endurance and stamina though, I'm still a three year old kid after all. And somehow my body got a little bit stronger.

As for my Magic studies, I have experimented with several techniques with it. By imagining my Mana inside my body compressed, I could fill the spaces with more Mana and increase my Magical Power.

I also found out that the more I compressed the Mana, the more the body got burdened by the mass of Mana's density.

My theory for it is like this...

For example think that you are a truck. What will happen if you carry more weight than the limits truck can carry? It won't move right? That's how it is.

Balance between the Truck(Body) and the Package(Mana) is the key for the most optimal path.

As for my progress the entire year, I already mastered Elementary rank Magic. And without incantations too! Amazing right?

The book is a real liar alright. It said the most elite of the mage are the only ones who could use without incantations.

Then what am I? I'm just an Elementary rank Mage at three years old!

It should be because I'm a child right?

Like how a person started learning how to ride a bicycle, they need training wheels. But the person started getting comfortable with it that confused him how to ride without it.

Or how a person used to drive Automatic cars suck using the Manual version.

Or more accurately how a person without hands learned how to write using their feet. But most people learned how to write with their hands, so if you need to start from the scratch by learning how to write using your feet. They feel discouraged and give up and continue using their hands since it's convenient, and how they always do it since they're young.

But I am different! Since I'm young, I can already use it without incantations!

I am... a genius...

Otherworlders always have cheats given the moment they got isekaid. But the real cheat of the otherworlders are the innovative and imaginative ideas never heard before.

Innovation is the ULTIMATE cheat we could ever have... it's only my opinion...

For now, in the next three years I'll master the elementary Magic spells to the limits.

I fear not a man who practiced a thousand kicks, but a man who practiced one kick a thousand times. –Bruce Lee

My goal is practice all Elementary spell a million times and master it to the highest level.

Use my Innovation Techniques to increase my stats.

And train my body to build my foundation.

Man, this really gets my blood boiling! But it's more a pain of the ass!

But I'll still do it! After all I'm a guy who worked several part time jobs! Multitasking is a piece of cake for me!

All hail Fantasy World!!!
