Magical Awakening?

Magical Awakening?

Chapter: 19

The day was coming to an end and Richard read the history book of this city to end and then he got up and went to the bed with a sleepy look on his face.

He moved to the bedroom and saw Sniffy sleeping on the bed with a relaxed expression on her asleep face.

On the side and all over the bed were clothes, in all kind of styles and it looked like Sniffy had worked really hard to let out all her inspirations and to turn them into their supposed form.

He moved some clothes aside, that were on his side of the bed and got on it. He wore his pajamas earlier after the bath and was now ready for some sleep. Right now, Richard was exhausted and all he wanted to do was sleep till morning, but something did not let him fall asleep and he had a feeling that he should meditate. He had done this every day for the last years and could not stop his subconsciousness from reminding him of it.

Therefore, Richard proceeded to sit up and relaxed his mind to enter a state of nothingness.

It did not take him longer than 2 minutes. He meditated every day for the past 7 years and could now enter a state of no thoughts easily.

Soon, he became aware of what had bugged him. His magic inside himself was found moving around on its own and he did not need to do anything at all. He also could not control it. Trying to stop or slow it down but nothing he tried worked. It was like his magic did not listen to him any longer.

He was really proud of the amount of control he had after the years of constant training and it hurt him that nothing he tried to do, worked. Everything seemed completely meaningless and after countless attempts he gave up. It was not like it felt that it would do him any harm and he observed it. On a deeper view it kind of looked like a natural process. The magic was flowing much smoother than it ever did in his control, it looked marvelous and he viewed it closely.

Richard then observed the energy circling around inside him and it was becoming faster and faster.

Moreover, he also found the strange golden energy again. Richard had noticed it every time he meditated, but was never able to do anything with it. Now that his body was doing everything alone in some natural order it was now seen and felt clearer than ever. With each circle his magic did around his veins it absorbed a bit more from the gold energy particles that floated around him.

'I could never absorb this strange energy, but now my magic does it without any help on my part. I cannot even intervene. That is something new.' Thought Richard while he observed the strange energy getting absorbed by his body.

'These particles were never so abundant as they are inside this city. Is it maybe this city's fault, that my magic got out of control?'

At home, he saw these particular golden energy particles and tried to absorb them countless times, but they did not follow his lead in any kind of way. They only ever acted on their own accord and flowed through his and out of his body. Right now, they are were absorbed by his magic and sucked up into his body.

Richard was only a bystander and watched his magic, revolve around faster and faster.

27, 28, 29, 30 he was counting the revolutions and when he circled his magic before, he was only able to go to 30 cycles. After that he would feel too much strain on his body that he had to discontinue and stop them. He remembered the one time he went overboard and tested if he could do more but was injured heavily.

But right now, his body was doing it automatically and the 30th turn went by and the rotations went onwards to the 40. The magic did not seem to want to stop anytime soon and he now sensed that the golden particles were absorbed at a much faster rate inside his body. At the same time, he felt that this unknown substance changed his magic slowly over time.

It became purer and purer, with each turn it got cleansed and the impurities were burned away into nothingness or moved out of his body. The strange golden energy helped him immensely and also strengthened his body to last longer than usual.

In no time at all his magic reached 60 cycles and he felt the same strain that he would normally feel at 30 rounds. He felt the strain turn into pain and it was growing with every new cycle. It was not slowing down in the slightest and got faster and faster.

Richard knew that he would not be able to hold on for much longer, maybe 2 or 3 cycles but after that he would need to forcefully stop it somehow, because his body could not continue any longer.

Alas, he was in control of his magic at the moment and could do nothing but break into cold sweat while the feeling of pain was gradually growing stronger and stronger. He attempted everything, everything he learned over the past couple of years went through his head but he could not find any solution.

His magic passed 65 turns and Richard was on the edge of what his body could bear. He felt like his body would burst in the next second. Richard could not even look at his magic or surroundings any longer. The pain was getting to much and his senses were weakening.

If he could see his surroundings then he would be amazed by what happened there. The whole bed was surrounded by golden particles and they were becoming more and more. The two people on the bed could not even be seen anymore. There was only a golden light to be seen that gave the room a mysterious look.

Moreover, it even seemed to affect the weather outside the hotel, because there was a storm building up and thunderbolts could be seen gathering in the sky.

Everyone in the city was bewildered and no one noticed the building inside the city, which started to glow in a golden hue due to the golden particles. The whole hotel was now glad in this golden light but no one noticed anything amiss.

Richard only felt pain all over his whole body. His brain was screaming at him to do something about it, but he was not able to come up with any plans any longer, since his every thought was consumed by the pain. He was only able to stay in his mind and scream at the pain to feel some imaginary relief. Which did help him not go completely crazy.

His body started to break apart. Starting from the outside, his skin began to tear itself apart. There was blood flowing everywhere down onto the bed. A heavy iron smell begun to waft around the room but both people on the bed did not notice that because of two different reasons. Richard could not sense anything and Sniffy was in a different state and her awareness was dead asleep.

What the boy did not realize was, that even after the circulation of his magic reached up to 75, they got faster and faster like at the beginning and nothing would to be able to stop his magic to reach its goal.

Richards body was almost at its end and he was about to die. His bones were disfigured and cracked all over the place. Bone marrow was dripping out of them. His skin melted down onto the ground and some organs could be seen. His hair was long since gone and only the outline resembled something human.

The moment he was about to die was the instant when some of the golden particles got out of his magic and began to flow to every part of his body. Earlier it was just a minor percentage that was absorbed by his body and now it flooded his whole being. These magical particles begun to heal all the damaged parts and let them regrow anew. Only this time stronger and more resilient than before.

His magic did not care about the state his body was in and continued the cycles of itself. The same parts that got healed a second ago, were now destroyed again and again.

Mysteriously, because of the now stronger strain on his body, more of the particles got into his body and helped him to repair his body. This created some strange equilibrium. His body was damaged constantly and then healed again to help him survive that torture.

Richard's magic spun crazily around his body and every turn it took, it absorbed more golden particles from the surroundings and it was getting purer and denser.

The turns soon reached 90 and continued to go up like crazy.

Outside was now a massive thunderstorm raging around and it was getting bigger and stronger. The residents did not know what was going on and could only hide inside their homes in the hopes that it would soon pass. Thunder was raging around and even magical beings could only cover in their homes when coming into contact with mother nature. Nobody wanted to go against such force.

Richard did not feel anything any longer and was completely lost in the bliss of being unconscious. Everything that happened to himself did not get noticed by anyone.

Anyway, golden particles were streaming to his location from all over the city and got more and more, they also got denser and denser. It was like a tsunami of magical particles that swept inside a young body. After they went inside his body, they then fused with his magic and the rest went all over his body to help him survive against his destructive magic, by healing his body.

The revolutions were now at 98 and Richards body was getting worse and worse. Skin knitted itself together in one moment and got destroyed in the next one. It looked like a battlefield. His luck was that enough reinforcement was getting to help him withstand the onslaught somehow.

His magic was moving around his body so fast, that it started to create heat from it. His flesh was not tearing apart anymore, no it was now directly melting from his bones. All the golden particles flooded inside his body and recreated every inch that he lost again and again. It did not take long and after a few seconds almost all the particles inside the hotel room and inside the city were gone. New ones from outside the city did not appear and the last batch of particles went into his body to help him survive this ordeal, but there now was no more of this strange energy.

The destructive power gradually outgrew the healing part, which now had no more new energy particles left to supply it and could only halt stop help healing his body.

It was now the exact moment the rotations of his magic reached 99 and then went towards the 100 mark.

Then everything stopped. The last rotation went on in a smooth and slow motion. It was like the last 99 turns did not exist at all and his own magic finished the last lap.

"Booooooooommmmmmm"

Something exploded inside Richards body and now in its place was found a much purer and denser magical energy.

The whole spectacle outside got to and end and the storm gradually vanished. All that remained were the clouds in the sky, but the thunder striking in them ceased. The residents had no idea what happened and could only thank that nothing had happened to them.

In the meantime, the body of Richard was now repairing itself with the help of his now much stronger magical energy.

Also, if someone got a really close look then some of these golden particles could be found all over his body. Sparse but they were there.

His body was repairing itself at an astonishing pace and every cell in him was becoming stronger than it had ever been before.

Richard was now soundlessly asleep in his bed and all the blood and all the impurities that got expelled during this strange occurrence were slowly vanishing. It was like they did not exist before.

Golden particles could be seen floating around the vanished parts and after all was clean again, these magical particles went inside his body to live in their new home.

Outside the storm was calming down and it began to rain.

It was like this night of doom never happened and the storm was gone.

A little time ago when Richard just started to marvel at the fact, that his body was revolving his magic around his body without his consent and the golden energy started to appear around him in the bedroom something different happened.

Sniffy was soundless asleep and dreamed a happy dream. The only thing which was weird was the fact, that from all the golden energy that Richard absorbed, there was a little bit of it splitting apart from the rest and went towards Sniffy.

After it reached her, it then started enveloping her like it did with Richard but in a much smaller scale.

This went on for quite some time and at the peak of the golden energy concentration in the room, she was also completely wrapped inside the golden light. It was slowly but surely seeping inside her being and began to change and purify her blood.

Her damaged genes were repaired and her whole body changed. Sniffys complete being was changing.

On her head was spurting raven colored hair that was growing without end and faster at every second that went by. Her wrinkled and scarred skin was becoming smoother and after a few minutes it was completely without any impurities. Apart from that, all of her scars were gradually vanishing from her skin. Her skin too changed into a pale white color.

The changes not only affected her skin and hair but also her ears changed too, from her long big ears they were turning into smaller and smaller ones. Now, they looked more like human ears but with a pointy end.

She then lost her house-elf look and began to change into a more human one. The only thing that did not change was her height at 1,3 meters and her eye color with their icy blue look. Sniffy now looked like a human but also not quite, the pointy ears let her more resemble elfs.

This went on for some time and after she had completely changed her body stature and repaired her body of all the blemishes her house-elf form had, the mysterious golden energy then vanished in the air where it came from.

She looked much more beautiful than most humans and even outclassed some wizards. She surely was a beaty in the making and some years later she definitely will become a stunning beaty that could cause the downfall of countries.

Sniffy did not wake up from this, on the contrary, she was sleeping like she had the best sleep of the world and nothing could trouble her this night.

The rain went on till the morning and from the looks of it, it would be raining for the next day..

Somewhere far away underneath a mountain could be found a man shackled onto the ground. At the moment the golden energy gathered in Richards room he opened his eyes and could not believe what he felt.

It was millenias ago that he felt this type of energy and had almost forgotten what troubles it had caused the last time. He focused his senses and felt for the place this energy appeared. After some time pinpointing it, he could only sigh at the spectacle that was taking place.

"Sigggghhhhhhh....After such a long time, something like this reappears again, it does not feel like last time, but it should be the same kind of energy. That fellow is really lucky to have chanced up on it. Hahaha….or better, he is really unlucky to got this chance. This will bring nothing good into the world. Some old fellows will do anything to get this energy into their hands. He really is not envious at all. Would I be not under this damn rock, maybe I could do something with it, hmmm maybe this is also a chance for myself. I could be that it is my fortune that such a fellow appeared right under my nose.

No other being should have detected him yet, I can surely use that for my benefit. My time will come again and some people will definitely pai for what they did to me.

It was getting quite boring down here, time to shorten this vacation of mine."

Said the being that had now a crazy look of determination on his face and could not help but wait for a chance to act upon this. He could just wait for the time being and use some strings he placed all over the land to help him shorten his stay inside this place. No one ever wants to be in one place for such a long period, not even this being.
