41 Chapter 34
Evan POV:
The Rain had almost Finished up
[Alright now that that's been taken care of. let's go meet your mother.] (Me)
[B-But I've said horrible things to her... There's no way she'll forgive me.] (Tifa)
[Are you kidding me? let me tell you one thing and listen carefully. There's no love more powerful than a Mother's love for her child. Everyone makes mistakes. So suck it up and let's go, there's an anxious mother waiting for you.] (Me)
[Wait. I also met Sarah and...... I did something very horrible....] (Tifa)
[You leave Sarah to me. Here keep this just in case.] (Me)
I Gave her my silver sword which I got from Trish.
[Just tell me where you saw her.] (Me)
[Around over there?] (Tifa)
[Alright you go back to my house ill bring Sarah over.] (Me)
My hunter's potion is still activated so it's best if I search for her now.
She nodded.
[Evan... Thank you.] (Tifa)
I smiled and waved goodbye.
hehehe, I invited a daughter and her mother to my house.
Okay, that was a terrible joke.
I went straight to where Tifa pointed at.
I kept looking around but I see no sign of anyone nearby and my Hunter's potion has almost finished up too.
........
.....
....
Damn It! My hunter's Potion Finished up.
Now, what do I do?
The Rain finished up and the sun rays could be seen, piercing through the dark gray clouds.
My visibility is good enough and its still daytime - nowhere close to night time.
But..... How the Hell am I supposed to search for her in this Thick Blanket Of Trees!
Okay, I do remember that Tania is connected with the forest and that way she can tell where everyone is..... can I do something like that?
I'm the fricken Hero of Skill I just have to perform them one time and I'm done.
Now how can I do that?
Feel the nature Coursing through my Veins?
Now that I mention it, I got Gaia Sentiment after just imagining...
Soooo... What does that mean?
I wonder if Tania can hear me.
[Yo Tania you there?] (Me)
.....
Probably not.
Hmmmm...
Gaia Sentiment...
Wait, Isn't Gaia that Mythological god that takes care of Nature or something?
[Uhhhhh.... Gaia! I call Upon you To... Help me find My Friend!] (Me)
.....
Welp that did nothing.
Hold on... Gaia Sentiment.... so Gaia is dead?
How can I Call Upon Gaia!? I Know She Exists!
Well, screw that. A skilled hunter always feels the forest in his Grasps so maybe I can do that.
I Blocked all my thought process, closed my eyes and focused on listening.
.....This is Hard.
After Focusing and clearing my mind a bit I Could hear some Squirrels.....and Rabbits... Oh, some birds just sat on a Branch right above me.
......
Maybe I have to feel what the Forest wants to Think or tell me. If I look closely at Tania and Elizabeth's Expertise then I know that the Forest is just a huge alive castle.
[Mana Courses through all living Beings. So if it doesn't have Mana... then Its either Dead or an Inanimate Object.] (Jeff)
I just remembered what Jeff told me before when I asked him about skills.
Lol, that means if I can see mana then I can see all living things.
That reminds me since I'm a Silver Daemon, I have special eyes right? can I use that to see everything?
But How?
Wait. Mana Exist in me and I can release it using Magic Weapons but... Everyone I have met until now has been using magic without using any magic weapon.
....How?
Come on Evan! Think Carefully. The Mana I Have is Mine and I should be able to control it.
I opened my eyes.
I didn't receive any new skills so I'm probably doing something wrong.
Come On Evan! This World Is Terraria But is also Not Terraira! Anything is Possible! The Possibilities Are Limitless!
I Tried Imagining My mana Flow out of my hand.
...Nothing Happened.
I made Weird Poses.
....Nothing Happened.
I Said Abracadabra.
Nothing Happened again.
HOW CAN I CONTROL MY MANA!!!!
*Would you like to view "Mana Control" Book From your Archives?*
I received a notification.
Book? Archive?
Wait isn't that the book I used and got the Magic skill Imbuement?
Well, the system did everything, I never read it.
And Since when did I Got An Archive!?
Alright, Yes I want to read it.
Magically a book appeared and Floated in front of me.
It was Titled "Mana Control".
It is the Book from which I learned Magic Skill Imbuement!
I Cracked my Knuckles.
Alright, let's do some Reading!
TIFA POV:
I finally reached Evan's house.
I took a deep breath.
My hands were shaking anxiously.
I can't think what will happen inside and I'm really afraid.
I can't open the door.
[Ah, If it isn't Miss Tifa.]
I almost jumped.
[Oh, it's just you Jeff. You really scared me.] (Me)
[I don't think my voice is that terrifying.] (Jeff)
[It's not your Voice. You just surprised me.] (Me)
[Do you have some business in there?] (Jeff)
[I do but... I'm really scared.] (Me)
[Does it perhaps involve your mother?] (Jeff)
I hesitantly nodded.
[You have nothing to be afraid of. Your mother is still very anxious about your return.] (Jeff)
[I don't know..... I have done something terrible and I don't think I can make up for it.] (Me)
[You know after you left. Your mother made a vow to herself.] (Jeff)
[She did?] (Me)
Jeff Nodded.
[She Vowed that if something happened to you then she will relive her duty as a queen and tell everyone that she married a Human and had a Half-Elf Daughter.] (Jeff)
My legs were trembling.
[It's your choice what you want to do but Your mother Loves you. That is a Solid Fact.] (Jeff)
I took another deep breath, nodded and went inside.
Evan POV:
Okay, I get it now.
So the book says that mana is imbued in our blood so I have to imagine my blood Doing stuff if I want to control it.
Let's try it.
I Imagined my Blood being Collected in my right hand.
and HOLY SHIT!
A crystal-like transparent Blue Ball is being formed on my hand.
I checked my mana and...
140/160 (Mana)
So I used one Mana star of mine... Oh, and I already regenerated the lost mana.
So what does this blue ball do?
I threw it forward and it vanished into the ground.
*Skill Unlocked: Mana Ball*
Mana Ball: Conjure up pure mana into a ball. The Mana ball can be used as a Mana Storage or be Experimented on.
Cost: N/A
Duration: N/A
Cooldown: Instant.
Oh Lovely.
Why the hell are the cost and duration Not Applicable!!
Oh well.
Now I Tried to focus my blood on my Eyes.
and Suddenly I see Colourfull Aura's everywhere.
The trees and the grass were Emitting a green aura.
the Animals were giving a very faint blue aura.
and I see only one Yellow aura in the distance on a tree.
*Skill Unlocked: Hawk-Eyes*
Hawk-Eyes (passive): See Everything more Clearly.
*Race Ability Unlocked: Mana-Eyes*
Mana-Eyes (Lvl:1): See the Mana of every living thing Nearby.
Awesome!! I'm guessing these auras are Mana
that lone Yellow Aura on a tree is probably Sarah so let's not waste Anymore Time.
I'm Soooo ganna use this technique to develop hundreds of different Skills.
I went up to Sarah quickly With my Hook.
Sarah was sitting and hugging her knees on the tree branch.
[Sarah!] (Me)
She was surprised and Quickly wiped away her tears.
[W-What do you Want!] (Sarah)
I have the perfect plan to bring Sarah with me.
I started acting.
[Sarah! A terrible thing Happened! Tifa was Captured!] (Me)
She was bewildered.
[W-What!?] (Sarah)
[I saw some caped dudes dragging Tifa into a giant house. I think it's the cultists again. Can you help me.] (Me)
I remember the fact that Sarah has not seen my house yet.
Sarah hesitated.
[Woah, what happened? The Sarah I remembered would have stood up already.] (Me)
[I-I C-Cant! Tifa hates me and I deserve it.] (Sarah)
[Hey, Everyone hates something. And just because she hates you now doesn't mean she's gonna hate you forever. She probably would have been in a really pissed off mood and you might have just coincidently bugged her more.] (Me)
[You don't understand..... I've lied to her my whole life.] (Sarah)
[So? What's that gonna prove? That you're a liar? So what? It won't change the fact that you're her sister and she needs you right now more than ever.] (Me)
Sarah finally smiled brightly and stood up.
[Y-You're right! I'm her Sister! She can't hate Me Forever!] (Sarah)
Alright! That's the Sarah I Remember.
[That's The Spirit! Now follow me!] (Me)
Sarah nodded and we ran towards my house.
* a few minutes later*
I saw Tifa talking to Jeff in the distance.
[Alright, there she is.] (Me)
[Wait isn't that your house?] (Sarah)
[Yep that's my house.] (Me)
[......Tifa was never captured was she?] (Sarah)
[Nope.] (Me)
Sarah Punched my face but it Didn't hurt.
[When did you Get such A Huge House!? Wasn't it Just a Small Shack before?!] (Sarah)
[I'll tell you later what matter's now is that Tifa is gonna fight the toughest fight of her life so we're gonna support her.] (Me)
[Wait What?] (Sarah)
[Just follow me] (Me)
I saw Tifa going inside my house.
[Alright, now's our Chance.] (Me)
We Followed Tifa Until She was behind the door of the room her mother was in.
We hid near the Stairs.
Tifa POV:
I went inside. My legs still trembling in anxiousness.
I went Upstairs in the Living Quarters.
My mother is probably inside this door.
I can hear some woman crying on the other side.
My hand doesn't move.
I can't open the door.
There's like an invisible force field that stops me every single time I make an attempt.
[There's no love more powerful than a mother's love.] (Evan)
[It's your choice what you want to do but Your mother Loves you. That is a Solid Fact.] (Jeff)
Everyone is trying to help me.
I Closed my eyes, gritted my Teeth and Forcefully Opened the door.
The Rain had almost Finished up
[Alright now that that's been taken care of. let's go meet your mother.] (Me)
[B-But I've said horrible things to her... There's no way she'll forgive me.] (Tifa)
