Feran And Vivian

In a narrow room. There stood a beautiful woman with golden hair, indigo blue eyes, and pink lips with a light skin complexion and a tall muscular man dressed in armor, he had white hair, blue eyes, and a light skin complexion. The woman lay on the bed looking over her baby and the man watched from the door.

"He looks just like you Feran." A woman's voice echoed.

"Nah he looks more like you."

"What do we name him, Feran?"

"How about Xavier?" Feran asked.

"Isn't that your dead brother's name, you know the one that died right after they were born?"

"Vivian, you know we don't bring that up anymore!" Feran scoffed.

"Then Xavier it is!"

' Uh, don't these people have no respect for the afterlife? I just died, geez!' Alex opened his eyes. From the position he was in, Vivian and Feran looked like Giants. But He noticed that it was just his small body.' Eh, why am I so small. Wait, this isn't the afterlife!'

The baby cried out loudly.

"Feran, did you do something to upset the baby?"

" He just started crying, how'd I know?"

"Maybe it's your face?" She giggled.

" Come on, the baby is handsome doesn't that make me too? It's the genes."

' So I'm a baby now. Does that mean I have been reincarnated? But where am I and which country is this? And why am I acting so cool about this?"

***

'It's been a few months since I was born. I know who my parents are now, there's Vivian and Feran who always carries some kind of sword. It seems that I can understand what they're saying, which means they speak English.'

" Vivian, I need healing," Feran called out for Vivian, it seemed that he just returned from work. Feran had his right arm as blood trickled from his sleeves.

"Oh Feran you're back, are you hurt?" Vivian became worrisome.

" Nah just a scratch. An undead got me while I was busy killing the rest of its friends off!" Feran laughed while scratching the back of his head.

Vivian then pouted," That sounds just like you!"

Heavy winds came from where Vivian was standing as an aura appeared around her body. The shut windows were blown open by the heavy gust of winds that flew by. Vivian positioned her palms on Feran's wound and soon after a bright green light could be seen, as she closed her eyes the winds blew even louder as Feran's wound slowly closed up as if it had never been there. It was just as similar to healing magic in fantasy novels and MMOs.

Baby Xavier then watched in shock as his eyes widened and his small jaw dropped to his chin,' Magic, Where the hell am I? Well, it does explain why dad always carries heavy equipment like armor and swords whenever he comes and goes back to work. This means that this is a whole other world than the one I came from, kinda like a Fantasy Novel, especially those types I read online.'

***

It was a few days after Xavier's discovery of apparent magic in this new world of his, he had taken his time to study both his parents,'Whenever Mom went to bed, she would read books surrounding magic spells, mostly healing though. I would force her to carry me with her so that I can also learn the spells while she reads them, it's a win-win. If I continue memorizing the spells maybe I'm older I could learn them. That's if I have enough talent though. First I gotta check my mana capacity, if I get into a meditation position and focus with no distractions then I should be able to summon my aura which could tell me how high my mana level is. Though, I don't expect much since I got this idea from one of mom's book she read while holding me in her arms.' Xavier on a chair placed closest to the kitchen then watched Vivian as she hummed while making a meal, he got the perfect idea,' I should make a distraction.'

Xavier crept away from his mother. Then he looked around the house. As he climbed down the chair now on his knees he looked around, the first thing in his sight was Caesar, a plant. Xavier with all his might tried pushing the plant off the table. It was his mom's favorite plant, Caesar.

"Bamp!" A deafening sound echoed throughout the entire house.

" Ahhh, Caesar!" Vivian cried while Xavier hid himself away between the very chair he was placed on moments before.

Xavier then clasped both palms together as he got in a praying posture,' Sorry for your sacrifice Caesar, your death shall not be in vain.' 

Xavier with a few steps to the right then crept inside his mother's room, it was a large almost empty room, it was lit by candles, had a bookshelf based on magic books, and many ancient stories, a huge bed with the color scheme of white which could probably fit three to four people at most, and by the candles a statue of one of the eight gods she would pray to. Xavier then crawled to the bed and then climbed over it, on the bed was what he was searching for, a magic manual guide for children and beginners. The book was massive, dusty, and looked to be hundreds of years old. Xavier then with all his might lifted the book and started searching through every page.' Let's see, I gotta go back to the first page where it teaches you to channel energy.' Xavier lifted the heavy book skipping from page to page.' Here it is, see it's just as I predicted it to be. It's very similar to how the protagonist does it in fantasy novels.' Just as he predicted earlier, all he had to do was focus properly without distractions.

Xavier meditated for a while until something started happening. He focused and focused until everything in the room started levitating. It was a breakthrough. It happens to most people at the age of 5 and, to be able to use spells you would need to be around 10 or older. Most people couldn't use magic since magic users were uncommon which meant that most people didn't have breakthroughs. A breakthrough was when someone awakened their ability to channel energy. At least that's what the book said. Xavier having been reincarnated broke almost all the laws of nature in this world in other words he had a breakthrough as a toddler. A transparent aura enclosed around Xavier's body. It was his mana. A nourishing feeling transmitted throughout his small body. He felt very refreshed and powerful— he felt very satisfied. He had an extremely high mana level which was rare but it was no surprise since both his parents used exceptional magic.

The context of the book stated that beginners must practice the exercise every day to strengthen their core until they could use spells, which was until the age of 10.

" Xavier, where are you, sweety?" Vivian called out.

Xavier placed everything in the room including the book, back to how it was originally placed. Then crept back to his mother.

" Oh, there you are." Her worried face had now turned into a broad smile.

Xavier then intentionally began to cry loudly as he intentionally pooped his pants, he had no choice but to pretend like a normal baby,' Damn, this is so embarrassing, the things a man, well-child has to do,' He was embarrassed considering he didn't do such a thing in his previous life.

" I'll change your diaper." Vivian then sighed.

***

Sometime after Xavier got his diapers changed, Feran returned home.

" Vivian, I'm home!" Feran shouted out loudly to signal that he was back.

" Oh, then I'll get dinner ready!" Vivian from the kitchen then heard of his arrival.

' If I'm not mistaken, it seems like dad is a holy knight— in short, a magic knight. If I would guess there are probably monsters in this world too. Dad must be incredibly strong!'

To protect those around him in the future, Xavier would need to get incredibly strong as well.

***

Xavier, Vivian, and Feran were dining at the dinner table. Xavier was on top of the table picking food from the table.

" Vivian, I made up my mind on something."

" What is it?" Vivian asked with her head tilted.

" Well, I was thinking that when Xavier gets older maybe I should teach him magic," said Feran.

" Don't most kids awaken at 10?" Vivian Asked.

" Most," Feran said, "not all. I awakened my ability to use magic spells when I was 7, maybe considering he's my son he'll probably have high mana levels."

" Don't throw high expectations on the baby yet Feran!" She snapped.

' It seems like dad wanted to teach me magic just when I was thinking to teach myself in secret. Dad must have a high mana level to be able to awaken at 7. I guess I should be able to do that too.'

" Well, then I'm gonna put Xavier to sleep. Goodnight Feran." Vivian waved goodbye to Feran while carrying Xavier to bed.

Vivian placed Xavier down in his crib. Little Xavier didn't like to sleep early in both this and his past life

' Sucks when you gotta sleep early. I wonder how Andrew is doing. I hope he's fine— I hope he doesn't think I bailed on him. Well, they probably got our aunt to take care of him. They're good people he should be fine.' Xavier closed his eyes as he fell asleep. These few days had been the best days of Xavier's life. It was by far better than the days he had as Alex.

I barely have any writing experience so forgive me for the background and so on. If I have bad English that's because I can't speak proper English
