《Undead Anima》Chapter 23: Life magic (part 2)
Advertisement
I'm studying with Velvet-sensei, currently I'm back in my room again, and the lesson for today is about "creation". Velvet-sensei teach me about academics but I have an average amount of knowledge in my previous life and I think my knowledge have a good amount to be able to become an elite in the world of researchers in this world. Though I'm not a genius, it's a cheat perhaps, that I have knowledge about this.
Well, back to my study. Our topic is about the creation of the division of each clans. There are 15 clans in total, some are ancient beings that exist before man, beastman, or even the elves. Since those ancient times, the gods created people to serve them, those are us. The gods created a sect where each sect corresponds to the gods they serve creating a clan. Each clan has their own attribute, and from our last topic about history, some beings can have mixes which are called a variant like me. Other clansmen doesn't have any protection from the gods but the ruler of that clan can give its own protection to its followers something like the initiation but without gods just yourself.
"Now, one god don't want to be with the other gods, this God created a huge domain where he can be the only God of this space. He created havoc all around the world searching various people that would follow him, but those that follows have become evil, this gods controls the demons."
"The evil God!"
"Correct, but the evil god slept for thousands of years, and no movement from its followers. Considering the accident from before...”
"So does that mean that the evil God has awaken?"
"That is true! If that happens the top five clans will start a war to the demon clan."

"And why is that?"
"The top five clans are picked by the gods to eradicate the evil God."
"But why they didn't kill him why he's still asleep?"
"That is a good question, it's because the domain of the evil God has a powerful barrier. I think it's a barrier to protect the sleeping evil God, the barrier is preserved by the seven deadly sins, there are towers surrounding the evil god's domain and each deadly sins are located on those towers. The barrier can only be preserve if the sins don't move on that location, a magic circle are under those towers and if they go out on that circle, the barrier will vanish."
"So the sins will move when the evil God awaken, and since we saw two sins that means that the evil God has awaken!"
"I believe so!"
"Also, based on the observations of the other clan, there are only six towers."
"And why is that? I thought all seven deadly sins are on that domain preserving the barrier?"
"Until now it still a mystery."
That is really a mystery.

"Now empress-sama, it is I Carla."
Vox-sensei said that in order for me to be able to master my life magic 【Overgrowth】, I need some help from the elves.
"Life magic is all around us, it's from all living things, but since humans can't grasp the whole potential of the life magic. Only those that understand and live together with the world can truly master the life magic."
Carla and I are here again at the training ground.
Since I can't practice my magic in my room I need to go outside.
"First empress-sama, you need to feel the spirits around you, once you feel it, you listen to it."

"How do I do that?"
"You need to just listen."
"I don't think that I can really do that!"
"Well, maybe yes since you’re not an elf like us, we have special ears that can hear many things when we focus our mana on it."
"Then maybe I shall try that."
I close my eyes and focus my mana on my ears, since I can feel my own mana, I direct its flow into my ears.
"..m..high..."
Hmm?
I hear something...
"...ma...na...high...”
My mana is high?
"Yes, your mana is really high!"
"Whoa!"
I open my eyes.
I heard a tiny voice just now.
"Seems that you've successfully heard it."
"What is that?"
"Those are the voices of the fairies, though they are minimal in numbers, but they everywhere other than the fairy realm."
"So that was a fairy."
"Once you've heard them, you can talk to them..."
I focus my mana in my ears again.
"Hello?"
"Hi! For a little girl you have a high density of mana! Teehee~!"
"I'm not normal though."
"I know that!"
"Then...can you help me to improve my life magic?"
"Is that why you want to hear me? Haha!"
"Uhmm...yes!"
"Then, in order for you to improve your life magic, you must have a blessing of the forest! Luckily I am a tree fairy!"
"Then can you help me?"
"Sure! But, give me some of your mana!"
"Great! I have a lot to spare anyways!"
"I can feel that!"
"How do I give it to you?"
"Give me your hand!"
"Uhmm...I can't see you!"
"Hmm...try focusing your mana on your eyes then."
I did what she said and open my eyes.
"So?"
As I open my eyes, I can see a small green humanoid creature with semi-transparent wings. Green curvy hair and wearing clothes made of leaves.
"Chibi...”
"..."
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay, anyways... Give me your hand."
I extended my hand to hers.
"Let your mana flow."
As our fingers touch, light exploded, her body absorb my mana.
Light covers her body.
"Uhmm...are you okay?"
"Wahh!! I'm so full!"
The light dissipates and the chibi fairy touch her belly.
"Then here's my blessing!"
She kiss my forehead and I can feel warmth from it.
"Till we meet again!"
The chibi fairy disappear.

Going be slow paced uploads. No promise of completion. Typing to improve. *** Description - Story is going follow MC, Will. He's going to go exploring the new world after the cataclysm. Going to have some science, but is mostly going to focus on fantasy. Magic, monsters, etc. Setting - Two worlds smack each other, destroying Earth in the 22 century. All known settlements are in districts and are the verge of a breakthrough in genetics to improve humans beyond their limits. Technology doesn't work outside of the eletromagnetic fields, and magic is a toxin. Plot - Anything I can think of on the spot. I type as I think, which is what I'm the best at. No outlines nothing like that, but maybe a character/place worksheet to use as a reference. *** Email me for any sugggested revisions, most likely to be seen btw. -PS I'm a junior in college working towards a duel degree.
