Ch.2: Wheelchair

[Day 3]

It's been 2 days and I'm finally capable of guiding almost all the energy in my body out. I figured it was time to see if I could use the Book of Creation now!

"Book of Creation!" I was still lying in the same place as 2 days ago and I could feel my stomach touching my back. As I called the book, it quickly appeared along with it the magical energy that brought a present feeling.

The book fell after floating for a while. I picked the book up and closed my eyes to concentrate. Although I could guide the energy in my body outside, it was an incredibly tedious task that would leave me with a horrible headache, based on my experience, this was probably energy depletion.

It's as if a person exercised for too long or ran for too long, then they would probably faint from having no energy left. I had to completely concentrate on guiding the energy which was hard because it was inside my body. If it wasn't inside of my body then it would probably still be hard to do but much less than right now.

All of the energy slowly but surely made its way up to my right arm. At this point, my arm was burning but I tried my best to push through it. After most of the energy in my body built up in my arm, I clenched my teeth as I tried to form a gate between the book and my arm. It was already hard enough to move the energy, but now I have to hold it in one place.

If I took too long then the energy would probably cause my arm to become crippled which wouldn't help my current situation at all.

After an entire minute which felt like a year, a faint but evident passageway between my hand and the book was formed so I wasted no more time and pushed most of the energy in my arm into the book. Forming a passageway between my hand and the book was incredibly hard, it was like trying to make the book apart of my body.

As I poured the energy into the book, I finally let out a sigh as I opened my eyes to see the book shining a bright yellow and white light. Based on the description of the book, I tried focusing on a single image in my mind so that the item would be created.

A loud hum was heard right in front of me as I felt the light coming from the book growing. The moment I opened my eyes, what lay before them pleased me greatly!

It was a wheelchair! I know, I know, if I focused on some kind of healing potion, then I could heal my legs easily, but what would happen if they just so happened to get crippled again? I only have one slot for the book so making a wheelchair would benefit me more than a healing potion in the long run.

I made sure that the wheelchair was comfortable and had a retractable leg-rest for extra comfiness. The only hurdle I had to cross now was getting into the wheelchair.

Since my upper body wasn't crippled, it was an easy job until my legs started moving. As soon as I pushed up with my arms and my lower-half moved, I felt extreme pain that the Book of Creation couldn't lessen at all.

"Come on, you got this!" I had to give myself a mental pep talk as I grunted and clenched my teeth while dragging my legs across the ground. This was painful.
