Chapter 18 - Family Night Out



Once we got into the carriage I sat there in silence absorbing all the elemental particles through my lungs.

Even though this was a great technique to both replenish my mana usage whenever I tried to make spells and after working out, it wasn\'t efficient.

Through eating, I can not only replenish nutrients, but I can also do all the above 20 times faster.

While my \'elemental breathing\' attribute not only absorbs the elemental energies at a 15% efficiency, but it also takes 10 times as long to assimilate them. Therefore I had concluded that it is better for me to just eat since it has more benefits.

Since there is no food in the carriage, however, I decided to take deep short breaths to make the process faster and gain the utmost limit of elemental energies.

My whole family started to look at me weirdly though. While Zarch and Zack laughed at me, Aroura and my mother seemed to think I\'m having a panic attack while my father already knew it was a breathing technique I used so he didn\'t have any weird reaction after the first 5 seconds.

When the carriage finally stopped we got out.

As I looked around the area, I could see countless carriages and nobles around. You can easily tell who\'s noble, who\'s the merchant, and who\'s the commoner from their clothes and carriages alone if they even have a carriage that is.

The shop\'s area can be differentiated from common shops from luxury shops as easily if not more easily than commoners and nobles.

The normal shops would be dusty and dark looking while the luxury shops were lit with vibrant golden color.

The patterns in the windows looked random yet they were coordinated to create some kind of symmetry. The Engraved-looking lines shone with vibrant gold and there was always a worker outside wearing a gold and black suit.

Aroura lead us to our destination which was just a luxurious restaurant. The Waiters wore White and black suits, the blazer being white and the shirt being black, while the tables were separated equally apart no matter how many chairs there were.

The receptionist quickly told the waiter which table was ours before leading us to it. It was in a corner where it would be hard to see us unless you were sitting at the closest 2 tables.

There was a magic rock embedded into it which was a silencer. It silences the area around us and makes it so nothing we say can be heard outside. Thanks to the books I stole from Aroura it was easy to figure out.

As I sat down I started to look around myself seeing how happy everyone in the area was. I\'m not sure if the lighting made it so the gloomy atmosphere disappeared or if it was magic. Nonetheless, it wasn\'t working on me.

Everyone at our table was speaking casually as if all the problems of their lives were thrown away, I spoke with aroura for a bit in the best child impression I could make to make them forget about all the maturity I showed back when we were at the house.

The food got here and since Aroura ordered for me, I didn\'t really get a say in what I wanted, but I trusted her enough to get me some good food.

The steak on my plate was steaming. My eyes widened and my smile grew while the drool almost came out.

I was looking at my food like a wolf looking at its prey.

Aroura seemed to notice and wiped my mouth before the drool even came out. She started to feed me even though I could feed myself, but I didn\'t resist. I realized in this world, as an almost minor noble family, etiquette is the most respected thing on this planet.

Since I am still unable to use the knife and fork with my weak a*s limbs, I just have to deal with it for a bit.

But damn does this food taste good. The steak is seasoned with precision, the sauce is amazing and the steak is cooked medium-rare, just right.

It isn\'t overcooked or undercooked. Its juices are flowing into my mouth every time I bite. The mix of juiced and sauce creates an almost heavenly taste, leaving me in a daze every time I bite.

Once we finished our food and the two brothers stopped complaining about wanting more, we started talking while waiting for the dessert.

"Pandora, I\'m sorry that I didn\'t believe you back then. I was blinded by my pride. All I thought about was damage control and I found it hard to believe the neighbors would attack you."

"So can you please forgive me\'\' said my mother while putting her head down and putting her forehead and the table, followed by both her hands?

"Yeah, sure I forgive you. you\'re my mom after all. can\'t stay angry at you forever." I said while gritting my teeth.

Immediately after, she started sobbing uncontrollably, sending a shiver of guilt down my spine which I tried to ignore.

Yes, she might have been a d*ck but everyone makes mistakes. Acting pissed off right now would just be childish. It\'s better to forgive and forget rather than hold a grudge. Yes, if she does it again I might not forgive her so easily, but no matter what age you are, humans learn from their mistakes and improve that way.

There are however some people who will and would never change no matter how many times they forgive them. No matter how many mistakes and failures they make, they will never learn. But my mother isn\'t one of them... I think.

Well anyway, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

After a bit of group hugging that I became a victim of, the desserts came and everyone was jubilant. While Aroura was happy the family didn\'t break up, my father was just relieved. My mother was happy I had finally forgiven her while my two brothers were just happy they got their desserts and weren\'t paying attention to anything that was happening.

Damn, maybe I should be like them. If I were to act like that I\'m pretty sure that no one would mistake my maturity level as higher than an 8-year-old. Even now I\'m trying my best to act like a child but it\'s a ton harder than it looks.

When we got home I decided to tell my parents I\'m just going to sleep in the attic because I find it more comfortable. While my mother was hesitant, my father agreed as long as I agreed to take classes on women\'s ethics and standards of this planet.

I pondered the thought for a bit. Of Course, I wanted to be able to sleep in the attic alone without having to be pestered by my family. Sleeping in the attic allows me to not only stay awake throughout the night but to also work out and train my magical capabilities without anyone seeing me.

I was about to answer when a thought popped into my mind.

"Then daddy has to teach me swordsmanship" is what I said as an answer.

"I\'m not allowed to learn magic and the only thing I can do is learn how to fight with my hands, \'\' I stated while lifting both fists in front of my head childishly.

"Are you sure you want that lil\' sis, swordsmanship is for boys." said Aroura

Everyone nodded in unison, brothers included.

"Then teach me magic!" I pouted

"well we can\'t do that dear, we just thin-" my mother said before being cut off by my childish voice

"Then I want to learn swordsmanship. I don\'t care if it\'s for boy\'s or girl\'s. I just want to be able to fight back" I said while slamming my foot on the ground.

Honestly, I\'m quite proud of my imitation of a child that I worked so hard on.

"Okay, swordsmanship on Saturday and Sunday mornings and your educational classes will be for 4 hours every day except Saturday and Sunday \'\' said my father. He has given up on trying to convince me because it clearly wouldn\'t work.

"YAY!" I shouted in the most joyful voice I could muster before running upstairs. Once I got into my Attic/room I closed the door and dropped my act. Spending so much time with my family was tiring at best, especially after not speaking to them for a whole week and getting used to isolation for most of the day.

I opened the window before hearing a knock on the door.

My father came in with a bunch of tools. After speaking a little about children\'s things, he started to build me a bed.

My dad was a professional since kg only took him 3 hours to make the whole thing which I couldn\'t imagine myself doing even with my old body. He had either known that I would choose to stay upstairs so he made a blueprint or he wasn\'t expecting me to come out so early.

Either way, I now have a bed big enough to fit three people the same size as me.

I spent the rest of the night trying to find a way to imitate the magic everyone used. My control over my \'soul will\' has improved a lot and so has the control over mana I can exude for my body.

Yet even after all my tries and failures, I have not been able to succeed a single time to create something as much as a torch, an ice cube, or even something as simple as an air bullet.

Air bullets are simple spells, yet whenever I try to imitate the magic reverberation of the Elemental Energies in the air, it simply does not work.

Well, that\'s a problem for me on another day. I may not need to sleep but damn am I exhausted.

As soon as my head sank into the soft pillow under my head, my consciousness faded and was sent into the world of dreams, nightmares, fantasies, or all three in one.
