The not so correctly adopted children and their psicotic kidnapper

Two days later Aki finally went to the Congress. While this is a republic, it is also a magic oriented society, so plenty of the seats on politics are held by men and women with high knowledge of that area.

As a form of convenience, at least you can say so, the Congress is both a place of reunion for those in the work of the law as it is for the judgment of new magic and theory.

In fully different rooms, sessions, and officials, of course.

Today Aki is giving his first real step in the political field of this nation. For that he put a suit, fully combed his hair back and got some magic glasses while wearing a full bloom smile.

-To think that when I was small i thought I'd never be able to look hot with these on. Aki murmured and raised his glasses before proudly walking through the giant doors with people that would judge him and his work.

After he walked in, an old stern man looked him up and down before announcing his thesis to the room with twenty other magus.

This will be pure magical nerdiness being spouted back and forth for a while. You might just skip it if you want, but the content is somewhat relevant.

-Appliance number 205, presented by mage Aki, the creator of the presented theory. You may begin. All present mages had a preview on their tables, so he didn't need to say much, just wait for the goggles on everyone's faces to do their magic.

-Thank you sir. As some of you dear Jury might have noted I have many theories to be judged, otherwise I'd have come sooner, but let's not waste more time.

-My first theory to be judged is "using racial skills while not changing your race" in a totally legal way, of course.

Let me say that most races actually have those and they have disadvantages too, which means humans don't have them by the laws of RPG, and that blood magicians can use certain catalyst to get a similar result by sacrificing a part of said race.

-My technique does involve blood though. The idea behind it is simple. "if all races have some kind of similarity in their biology, then their magic circuitry may also present the same case." Some raised their browns to that.

-While this may sound like some glorified trap for demi-humans, this technique is much more effective on non-humans, and with that I mean that a cat-kin could more easily utilize a leopard, wolf, whatever agile trait you wish, better than us boorish humans. While that may prove to hinder some of the strength and endurance based…

-Mage Aki, we haven't seen any proof of possible application of said technique. While the described circuits are indeed complex and would enable for high level imitation of skill, it still lacks the part that would be copied. I don't see how this could work out of theory, so I'd suggest you'd please spare our time and skip to your next theory. Said an old woman with a lazy look.

While this was certainly something to undermine his confidence, it was definitely true. These bunch had seen too many idiots who didn't actually see the big picture and would try to use the congress to look into one or other mystery. Aki did sure get red though.

-Oh, yes, you're right, excuse me, I don't know what was on my mind. He mumbled various excuses while going to the door, some looked at each other while thinking "is this it?"

-Guilda! Some fucker didn't get the right papers here! You're gonna need to stop ogling Tina in that suit and come help me with the copies I left with you! While there sure as hell was a magic thingy to call his partner and currently unwilling secretary for this, he was quite embarrassed at the moment and wanted to curse.

Some more impossible to understand screams later, the ginger in a long formal skirt and white blouse came while carrying a cart full of documents. She grumbled while putting a pile of papers next to Aki and he started to "digitalize" the information so the jury could better grasp it.

When it reached then, the same old lady from before screamed.

-This! Are these what I think? If you are found to try and lie to me now the president himself will come to put you under the law's punishment. *BAMN* Answer me Mage Aki. She was steric already, really.

-It is exactly what you think magus Yelah. These are the magical circuitry of over fifty especies. Twenty known to have intelligence. Subspecies and variants not included, I am afraid only the God of magic would be able to get that. Aki calmly said, as if his former embarrassment never happened.

-Some of you may think it is preposterous of me to think of having finished to map fifty whole systems, it is a fact that it was not I who found such knowledge, but the elves. That would be right really, Aki only did thirty seven of those.

It was his first time meeting Arthur and it will be discussed later, but for now let me skip all the bullshit he had about having come into contact with a elven minister (true), who offered a deal to him in order to further the knowledge around the world and better the diplomacy between those creepy shut-ins and the humans, after all, who lives in the mountains and forests but keeps such skin, hair, all that perfect bods…

-And with such I conclude my presentation for the use of a new high level technique,  with major implications in most know fields, by doing a demonstration of its power.

-This is a fireball done with the normal amount of magic and without influence from external buffs. He said while summoning a ball of fire the size of a fist.

-This is my norm as an individual with high magic talent and double the effect on fire spells. He summoned the same thing, but it was as big as his torso. (around 60 cm)

-This is what happens if I use an elder salamander's fire affinity and a nightmare's control over magic bodies.

This time, a two meter tall rotating ball of condensed fire appeared and the jury could feel the heat of something that would melt a person from up close while on their seats. That only lasted for three seconds, but still.

-I am sorry, even though I made the technique I am currently unable to use it at my will for lack of power, but if a level 200 tries to learn it they should receive a good boost to their strength.

That is technically a lie, since he can't actually use only just this technique. He has other two with better results that are also easier to handle. He just happened to be able to create this still very useful deteriorated version.

He needs benefits, but not that bad he'd give the government something they'd most be likely to spend months pondering over.

Yeah, the judging gave him the chance to be promoted to Maister, all right? So let me go to how he met Arthur, the high elf.

…

-Oh, so that's my new brother! Why don't we spar sometime? You need some advice with the ladies? I heard you were an otherworlder so there's nothing to be ashamed of, I could even present you to some friends of mine if you're having too much trouble.

The guy who measured exact six feet tall, had a lean body with solid muscles, sharp and clean features, pointed hears, green spiked hair that somehow still looked classy and green eyes, looked exactly like an insufferable older brother from anime.

So Aki obviously had to hand his ass to him for the frustration this han… elf, had caused to him.

-Light exercise before eating can always open the appetite, right brother? Asked a smiling Aki.

-Um. Murmured the elf, still pale from what he'd seen. Determined to never give fifteen minutes for Aki to prepare before their battle and say he'd cover all the costs again.

That wasn't a battle. That was something… terrifying.

While taking some turkey for himself, Aki tried to actually know Cleo's second child.

By the way, Bea is the oldest and first child, Arthur the second and Chris the third. Strangely enough, Aki is the only one that was forced into being her child.

One didn't care, the other begged her and Chris has been with her since she was two because her parents passed away and her first caretaker found out she was a demon-kin, which ended in a not so happy outcome.

-So, how is being the elven crown prince? Innocently asked Aki.

-Not really a fun thing to do. Drily said the man in question.

-Let me guess, your birth mother is a controlative bitch that only pays attention to her own shit, hates all "lower" races of elves, has the council of the tree at her palm and considers all other races as unworthy of existing as even slaves? He asked and stuffed the mouth with three different kinds of meat.

Arthur was silent for a moment, then he looked at Cleo and saw her shrug, turning back to Aki he asked:

-Newest story about elven queens? To which he got a nod. -All true. You have anything to kill those? He asked with a straight face.

-It depends. Does she prefer males or fe… both uh? Yeah, you see, I don't know if the current champion has it, but there's this ability called "lust", it makes you more fuckble and its very addictive. One taste and you will want it for… well, you can pass through the old way of anti-drug addiction, sure, but I don't think she would try it before you can trap her.

-I'd rather not hand over a crazy person with a lot of power to yet another unknown person, sorry. Said the Prince while the three women at the dining table all paid attention to their talk with a serious face.

-Yeah, I was going to suggest you use it yourself in that case. I can actually copy the magical structure of it if given the chance and make a spell with similar if not the same effect. To that Arthur choked on his food and had to drink water.

-I am not getting near that woman, ever again! Sorry, sorry. I lost my cool. What do you want for the spell? Asked the prince while breathing heavily after punching the VERY hard table.

-I am actually very interested in enchanting, so I could also give you something with the same effect but that would also get a hidden message to her brain. Like a compulsion to walk in an exact spot of the garden undisturbed for ten or fifteen minutes every monday or something.

-She already does a sacrificial **** of slaves there every monday. Replied the Prince with a straight face. (the corrector was censoring my words, so I censored it!)

Aki held his palms together in front of his face and breathed in hard.

-Boy! That's some heavy shit. Let me tell you of something that will kill her even faster than. There's this spell for… does she wear something to protect her against the attack of souls summoned right next to her?

-Yes.

-Does she drink tea regularly?

-Yes.

-Does her toilet…

-Yes.

-Dragons?

-She fears then.

-Buy one of mama's dragon eggs and I will be able to give you a dragon's mana signature and  structure.

This time Arthur wasn't the only one surprised by his claims.

Cleo threw the milk she was drinking, Chris eyes sparkled and Bea froze.

-If you can do that then I will just give it to you! Even I want one of those. Exclaimed Cleo while dripping milk from her face.

-Can't you kill dragons with your bare hands? Why do you need their spell formulae to use world magic? Asked a confused Aki.

-Of course I can dumbass! It just doesn't have the same effectiveness and it is not even feasible in a fight. She exclaimed.

-Ok, then if you could show us the way to the vau… k, you can teleport things here. Let's go to a open place and grow the egg into an adult dragon.

Suffice to say that dragon meat is delicious and Aki had to butcher it for a whole day before getting the actual system from it mapped out.

The idea behind it is like that of finding out about the insides of a planet, with waves.

First you make the mana length very similar to that of your target, than you keep pounding waves of energy inside of it and you should have a rough idea of what the mana channels inside said body are like. Please keep in mind that can only be correctly done while said target is alife.

The really difficult part is actually turning that rough idea into a real map. But Aki used a mapping spell and printing spell to instantly get the lines out.

That also resulted in acquiring the biology chart of a artificially grown dragon, but that is just a plus.

Anyway, just a rough sketching isn't enough to know how the mana works inside a body, so there is a need to keep repeating the process and leaving it to be analyzed by professionals in the area to make the finer details fixed. Aka, Cleo and Chris.

While this may sound like a cheat, but do you really think he will be able to use this shit before level 500?!

Aki actually traded it for 5000 maps though. Those he can use. Not without preparation, but still.

It also fells good to smack the hundreds of years of meticulous searching and pondering that were needed to get these maps done and to have a quarter of the elven research in an area in their pocket spaces.

He had some other from Cleo's library, but still.
