《Camiare: An Isekai》Chapter 2: Finally Some Progress
Advertisement
Four weeks have passed since I came into this world, and during this time I discovered something during my BTC (Baby Training Cycle). During my "meditation", which is my trying to cultivate my core if there is one, I discovered what I am pretty sure are chakra points, meridian points, etc. I hadn't memorized them when I was on Earth, but I had seen enough of the Hyuga Clan beat up people to know where the main ones were. During this four week period, I also began to get a good sense of where my internal mana was. To my chagrin, it was a lot worse than I thought it would be. I had expected it to be spread out over my body. Rather, it was in clumps, more like puddles really, randomly placed in my body. By concentrating hard, I could slowly stretch the "puddles" of mana out. And I mean it when I say slowly. My parents gave a somewhat nonchalant reaction to my surprise when seeing their baby laying there quiet. I think they were too relieved and tired to really think about it.
While I am on that topic, I would like to point out that unlike in isekai stories, I cannot not cry. In most isekai, the baby protagonist will be silent and train, though that part I am trying to do. I physically cannot not stop crying when a normal baby would unless I am meditating or releasing mana. I wonder why that is.
I was unsure how I should deal with this whole isekai thing. In some series the main character doesn't tell his family/loved ones, and this leads to internal struggles for some. In others, the main character does tell them and for the next couple of chapters the family learns to accept the truth, which leads to external struggles. Honestly, I think it will be easier if I don't tell anyone. But that's a problem I will have to deal with another time.

Two Years Later
I can now walk. I have never felt more accomplished in my life. It started at crawling, which I want to say I was good at automatically, but then I would be lying. I still haven't got access to any books as the study/library has a closed door, which is never left opened. I should mention that I myself have no idea how technologically advanced this world is except there is no electricity.
Now that I can walk I should have a better chance at getting into the study. In the meantime, I might as while recount what I learned about my family.
My Father, Arthur Armis, is a retired mage, or its equivalent. I heard him brag to my mom that he was a Tier 8 Xetralite, whatever that is. It seems that he is respected in the country/kingdom I am living in, as people I don't get to see are always visiting him time to time. My Mother, Beldria Armis, was a school nurse for the Camiare Gamic School in the capital. I have no idea what school that is. I also learned that I live in the village of Cree.
It was during one of these visits that my chance came. When my mom suddenly left the study/library(she was cleaning) to greet and chat with the guest in the kitchen, I waddled my way out of bed towards the door. I was greeted by 4 bookshelfs full of books as I fell on my face walking into the room. Reaching for the bottom shelf, I did one of the hardest things I have ever done before: I grabbed a book with my baby hands. Staring at the cover, I could make out the title: XETRAL THEORY AND FOUNDATION: BEGINNING OF A XETRALITE. I could read it! Opening the book I struggled to turn to the first page. On it read:

CHAPTER 1- XETRAL SUMMARY
By utilizing Xetral, one can infuse with rateh and produce gamic. Gamic comes in several forms, or menteles. There are six basic menteles of gamic which will be explained later on in Chapter 2. Xetral can be used for other things beside creating gamic. At around the age of 10, most children will unlock their first tier. By amassing Xetral around the midriff, one can unlock more tiers. The amount, quality, and level of gamic produced changes as one ascends to the next tier. There are ten tiers, the lowest being tier one all the way to tier ten, though it is only in legends that this tier is reached. This is because it gets harder exponentially to reach the next tier. At tier two, a young Xetralite will obtain a special deviant. This deviant power can be ranked in three categories: Strengthening, Mental, or Unique. A strengthening deviant will provide some sort of physical boost. This is the most common kind of deviant. Mental deviants have a wider range of possibilities, from mind strengthening to some sorts of divination. This type of deviant is rare. What is even rarer among Xetralites are Unique deviants. There are allegedly 1 of these in every ten thousand people. A current example when this book was released would be the Principle of Camiare Gamic School in the capital. He has the Unique deviant ability to control the gravity in a 5 feet radius around him.
