2022-04-26 05:27:08"I've already recovered. I need to get back on my training also I need some new spells."
Oscar muttered to himself. After talking with Mason he returned home for the day. Mason asked about what he should do and Oscar said that he should wait until things get... calmer. Of course, that was just distracting Mason. For a few days at most but every second he could gain was important for Oscar.
What Oscar wanted was to gain enough time until he git stronger or at least Kairi recovered enough mana. After all, he can't guarantee that there aren't any other spirits out there. With those thoughts he fell asleep. The next morning he begun his research again.
"Since I gained mana, all I was focused on was Water Magic and its spells. They aren't necessarily bad. But I feel like I need variety."
Water Magic itself isn't focused on offensive or defense. It is more like a middle ground. It has both offensive and de

The First Mage On Earth Bad Feeling
(Oscar's POV) Hmm? The weather became cloudy, suddenly. I have been training for a while now. I think it's already been an hour or two at this point. I guess I lost track of time, again. It started to happen a lot these days. I can't help but get lost in my research. I don't know much about magic. So, learning something new is extremely important to me. Not just learning but practicing what I learned is also feel amazing too. It gives me the feeling of getting stronger. Anyway, today was a little different from other days when I practiced magic. Today I tried the original spells I created, mostly. First was the [Rock Bullet]. I inspired it from the novice level spell, [Water Ball]. Of course, I didn't use the same size as the water balls. I used the size of normal bullets. But the way it works is copied from the water ball. I changed some of the parameters. The spells are like little codes bu

"MASON!"Oscar shouted with all of his might. He rushed to his friend as his body slowly fell to the ground. He felt the world around him slow down as he continues to move. At every step he got closer to Mason, his heartbeats got louder.When he reached him, he was already laying on the ground. There was a very clear bloodstain on his chest. The blood was constantly leaking from the wound the gunshot opened. Seeing this Oscar's face turned pale. He immediately cast a healing spell on Mason's wound."Mason!""Who is this kid?!""I don't know! We were only told that this Mason kid would be here."Oscar sharply turned his head to the talking men. He had a deathly glare on his pale face. He saw the gun they held was still pointing at the Mason. And before anyone could say anything else he cast another spell with his other hand."[Rock Bullets]"Fort

"Mom, please, I have to go.""..."Oscar already made his decision. He decided to go out and learn about the foreign energy he was researching. His grandpa and Carla's were aware of this energy. So he decided that his first and hopefully only destination was the secret house his grandpa had in Zhose Region.He told his mother about his decision to go to the Zhose. To the secret house of his grandfather. She couldn't find a word to speak about the sudden decision of her son. She was about to refute him but she noticed the state he was in.His clothes were normal but his face wasn't. His eyes were red and swollen. It was obvious that he cried only recently. His fists were also clenched and were red. He might punch somewhere until making his fist red, she thought. His lips were also looked bloody. He must have bitten his own lips, she thought.She was worried about her son. The only other time he

Lydia opened her eyes slowly. When the sunlight fall on her eyes she rubbed her eyes. So bright, she thought. She was laying on the grass and under a beautiful tree. She could hear birds chirping."Ah, what a beautiful day."She looked at the lovely blue skies. There were almost no clouds in the sky. The sun was shining bright high in the sky. The birds and many butterflies were flying around. It was a fascinating scene."It's pretty isn't it?""It's breathtaking.""I know, right. And watch this."Oscar came behind and talked with Lydia. He raised his hand high above and hundreds of different kinds of flowers made of water appeared floating around. She watched them with sparkling eyes. Her admiration was very clear. This fantastic scenery coupled with magical flowers was making her excited."The magic is amazing.""It might be the best thing that happened to
The First Mage On Earth Nightmare Again or... Memory?
It was a long and hard day for Oscar. He was mentally exhausted but it was worth it. He researched and practiced magic. Then he lost his friend. Mason died in his arms. He hoped that Kairi could somehow heal him but he couldn't."I will go to the secret house grandpa left. Hopefully, there are some records about this foreign energy at there."He already had bought a ticket to Zhose Region. If everything will go according to his wishes, he will find a way to resurrect Mason there and maybe even Nora. And he then will take revenge on whoever harmed Mason. While imagining his revenge he soon fell asleep."Thomas! Wake up already.""Let me sleep. Just five minutes.""No! We are going to the forest with other kids. We can't be late!""Ugh!"The boy with dark-haired wakes up with a frown. A girl with dark hair kept poking him without rest until he completely woke up. The boy looked at
The First Mage On Earth Zhose part 1
It took eight hours of bus travel to reach Zhose from Daxhoull. The bus went through Biron and Zlorith to reach Zhose. It was two hours long distance between Daxhoull and Biron. From Biron to Zlorith was three hours and another three hours to Zhose.Zhose was a city built in a mountainous region. Because of this, transportation was long and hard. Even to this day, there weren't many roads leading to Zhose City. It had a population of half a million. It wasn't a big city but it couldn't be said that it was small by any means.Oscar walked out of the bus. It was already past noon when he arrived in the city. The cold weather of Zhose hit his face. Another important point about the Zhose Region was, this place was one of the northernmost regions of the continent."I didn't think this place would be this cold already. We just got the October and this place already has the weather of the winter."As one o

"The weather here is sure cold."Oscar was sitting on a bench. He was in one of the parks that many tourists visits. He still complained about the cold weather. He didn't want to attract any attention so he didn't use mana to make himself warmer. Because of this, he got cold."I need to find a place to stay for the night."There were a lot of inns in this city. It was one of the specialties of the city. Oscar got up from the bench he was sitting on. He had a place in mind to stay the night. The same inn he has once stayed with his grandfather years ago. He couldn't find the bookstore but maybe he could find the inn, he hoped."I need to look for Uncle Zheng tomorrow. I have one final idea to find him. I can't remember well but there used to be another place I visited with grandpa. It's a long shot but I have to try it. Since I can't remember it well I didn't want to do it."Oscar

"The beast of the North? What's that?"Asked Oscar. The people who were talking at the next table fell silent and observed Oscar. Just a second later they responded to him."It's an old legend of this region. There are many different versions of the story, especially about how it came to be. Some say it's the soul of The Northern Berserk. Some say it's a beast that came here from the North Pole.""Aren't an ocean between here and the North Pole?""Yes. This is why no one believes that one. Anyway, the beast of the north legend begin about two hundred years ago. A legion from Zlorith tried to get into the region by using the mountains. But they went missing and the only thing found about them was shredded bodies."That can be the work of wild animals, thought Oscar. He was wondering if the said beast could be a spirit but so far all he heard was just some good old legends that are not even close to truth many times."Since then there are a lot of people who went missing in the mountain

Mason's Project
"Your project?""Yeah. I think with the help of mana, I can complete it."After school, I returned to our base as usual but the moment I stepped inside, Mason came to me and start talking about his project. It was weird to see him this energetic but I think this is a good sign. It's already several days since he woke up and he was kind of depressed all the time. Maybe he is starting to accept what happened to him and trying to move on. That would be the best for him right now.He always had a bit of a nerdy side to him but to think he was working on a project, I never thought it. People are really surprising."What kind of project are you talking about?""It was mostly theoretical but at its core, it was about distributing, collecting, and even connecting energy from long distances. I had trouble finding a decent source of energy to make it work. On paper, every other energy type I tried had failed. They were either too weak or too strong for it.""Distributing... Connecting...

Fun for the weekend?
(Oscar)Jason seemed to be nervous. I don't know what he is exactly thinking but it has to be something to do with Hope. Whenever he seems nervous he often thinks about Hope. Watching him feels both amusing and a bit weird. I guess love really makes people change.We are sitting inside the clubroom right now. It's already after school. Today school was boring as usual. I can't enjoy school as I used to after learning more about the supernatural world but I can't just abandon this life. In the worst case, I can use it as a cover. But still, it's damn boring. Well, the school festival is coming in two weeks' time so I might get the chance to enjoy it. Our club decided to publish a comic book and we have almost finished it."Will you talk already? Watching you this nervous makes me uncomfortable."I said with a bit of irritation in my voice. He keeps fidgeting in his seat for ten minutes already. Anyone would be uncomfortable just sitting near him. I was unfortunately sitting right acros
Luna Edgar, The Heir of the Edgar Coven
Elders' balcony"...Luna Edgar cleared the third stage of the trial... It is time for elders to decide..."After Hector's words, everyone turned towards the elders' balcony. There was a deadly silence, both inside of the balcony and outside of it. All of the elders and the leader of the coven had serious and grim expressions on their faces. Before the situation could turn into something else Elijah talked."We will announce our decision... ten minutes later. Meanwhile, everyone should take some break."Everyone visibly relaxed after hearing Elder Elijah's words, other elders included. When the attention was lifted from the balcony all of the elders turned to each other. Elijah was once again the first to talk."This will give us ten minutes. We should make a decision.""...I find it hard to make. All of us saw it. She awakened the curse mark and even deactivate it by herself. This should be investigated before we can make any decision.""You are right, Camila. But, most of them don't
Luna's Trial part 3
And now it's time for her final opponent. This one will be the most difficult one and also where she will use her true power to show everyone what she really can do. Before Hector was announced at the beginning of the third trial, the leader of the coven stand up from her seat. This immediately attacked everyone's attention.Luna furrowed her brows seeing the expression on her mother's face. Almost everyone could only see her expression as nothing but indifference but Luna could read her expression. Eliana was angry. She was going to do something to satiate that anger of hers. This will be definitely something that will make things harder for Luna. And she was absolutely right."...We will use another monster for the third stage. Hector, bring out the convict number 6 and cease that stupid jokes.""!!! Yes, ma'am."That's bad, thought Luna. She knew what her mother meant as the convict number 6 also known as the cold one. It was one of the only monsters she didn't want to face. It was
Luna's Trial part 2
"Hahaha. She is a promising young witch. If we want to survive in the future we need every young witch we can. We all know the situation on the Sanraisu. There are already many suspicious movements related to the clans reported. They will eventually set their eyes outside of the Sanraisu. They will notice our existence, if not today, a few years later at most. When the troubling times are getting closer, should we really punish our best witch?"Camila furrowed her brows. She knew that Elijah was right. There were big troubles on the horizon. The number of the witches on the earth can't be compared to the clans of the Sanraisu. Also, some of the clans had much more power than most of the covens. So, this was one of the reasons why witch covens scattered around the world and hid from everyone else. To survive.In a possible war against those clans, witches will certainly perish. This was the bitter truth every elder of every coven on earth had to accept. Elder Avery and Elder Layla look
Luna's Trial part 1
Luna was waiting in front of the old wooden door. She was inside a room with only a simple chair in it. This was a waiting room. She was in here this room for an hour already. She was waiting for the trial to begin. There was a colosseum-like room behind the old wooden doors.She had to be judged in the trial because of her big failure with her previous spell. She didn't expect her spell to go wrong and cause this. She will have to fight against many opponents and defeat them all to clear this trial. The main purpose of this trial is to prove one's power to defend itself and defeat enemies. All this was that her failure might alert clans and the rest of the supernatural world of their existence. The witches have been in hiding for the last four hundred years and every coven on earth wants to keep it this way.The trial will happen in a reflection dimension. This dimension mirrors the real world and whatever happens inside stays inside. The witches use this dimension to keep their exis
Concerns for the Future
(Oscar's POV)Hah... There are a lot of concerning things for the future. Mason just woke up and decide that he wants to join us. Charlotte also chose to join us with him. I wonder when they are going to confess to each other. It is clear that both of them have feelings for each other. Thanks to this I won't need to erase or alter Charlotte's memories. We are still a small team after all. Keeping everyone safe is my utmost priority.After a little bit talk, I sent Mason to rest in the infirmary. It's best that he rest a bit more. Charlotte also went to look after him. It's really cute seeing them together. After they left the main hall, I chatted with Kairi and Izumi for a while. When it started to get late I went home."I'm home, mom.""Welcome back, sweetheart. Dinner is almost ready.""Oh, I'm coming just after changing my clothes."I went up to my room and changed my clothes. Tomorrow there is school and I also have to plan the future of the team. I'm the leader of our team at th
Mason's Decision
"Well, you are trying to create a new element. You wouldn't expect it to be easy to achieve. It's something unheard of in the spirit realm. You achieving this much is already an awesome feat.""What can I say, I'm the first mage on earth."I smiled smugly. I am really proud of this nickname. I may have given it to myself but that doesn't matter. The truth is I really am the first mage on this earth. There is no clan that can use mana and does magic. There are bounty hunters who can use mana but they can only use it with the help of magi-tech. And spirits are spirits.After me, Mason would be the second mage. Well, if he doesn't want to be in this world I can't force him. I want him to be with me in this but I can't force this on him. This is something he has to decide of his free will.There are many amazing things on the supernatural side of the world. I don't know everything but I already know the wonderful things this world has to offer. Things you can do with mana or aether are fa
Talk With Mason; New Elements
"That's... hard to believe...""I know. I would have a hard time adjusting my mind to these fantastical things if my mind weren't influenced by the mana back then.""What kind of influence you are talking about?""Hmm... It's hard to describe. It's like your body and mind both want to embrace mana and you yourself slowly drifting toward the mana and magic.""That's a little scary.""I know. But mana itself isn't scary. It's just an energy. It's up to you how you use it."I told him everything that happened. How I found him on the verge of death and how he died in my arms. It was embarrassing to talk about it now that he was back to life. But I told him everything anyway. We have known each other for years and I know that I can trust him with anything.He had a difficult time believing everything I told him. I created a small fire in my hand and showed this to him. He was shocked and started to accept things. Seeing supernatural things is always more effective than hearing them from so
