Chapter 297: Ch 300: Awakening as a Mage
Among the inherent special abilities, Rein was already using the Eye of Truth so he had no need to test it out. And as for his perfect body, to test that out he needed to get hurt and with this baby body of his, Rein was not willing to do anything too dangerous. So for the time being, he decided to test out his spatial manipulation ability.
First Rein tried to create a portal. He was successful in the very first chance and was able to create a portal that opened a few meters ahead of him. So next he started to test the distance limit of the portal.
After he was able to create a portal even on the furthest corner of the room, he stopped. This much distance was already quite good and Rein felt that he was nowhere near his limit. So he decided to do this test again in a more open area.
After that Rein started to try his spatial sense and teleportation abilities. With his spatial sense he was not only able to sense his house, he even managed to see the whole city where he was. Actually calling his birthplace a city would be a bit of an exaggeration as it was at most a small town.
The range of this spatial sense was even bigger than Rein expected so he was happy about it. As for his teleportation, he felt that as far as his senses could go, he would be able to teleport there. He had not tested it out but he was confident about it. As for long distance teleportation, Rein needed to visit other places for this to work. So as he had no idea about the geography of this world for the time being, he was unable to test it out.
All in all Rein was extremely satisfied with all the test results. His abilities were working very well and it would be extremely helpful for his future no matter what kind of talent he would get. So instead of waiting his time doing nothing, Rein decided to use these abilities to gather more knowledge and information about the world, especially about magic which was the core system of this world.
So Rein again used his Spatial sense to hear what other people were saying. Even though he understood the language, he was not given the ability to directly read the texts too. So Rein and to learn doing that. But the written form of his current language was quite simple with just 31 unique characters, so Rein was able to learn the written language very quickly.
...
Just like that five years passed. Rein had grown up and had turned into a cute little boy. Because of his perfect body ability, he grew very quickly and even though he was only 5 years old now, he looked like a 7 or 8 year old boy.
That was not all. Rein had also shown his exceptional intelligence and had become a well known prodigy. He was also very kind to everyone, so in the Markarm territory, he was extremely famous. All the servants of the family were also very fond of him and were proud to have such an amazing future master.
So just like all the other days, Rein was sitting on the lap of his mother while reading a book. After having their lunch, the son and mother pair always spend some time together. Normally they would also talk during this time but today Rein was reading a very interesting book so his mother told him that he could focus on that while she was busy cuddling with her amazing son.
Rein's mother's name was Mona and she was a beautiful lady with big boobs. She did not worry much about her figure and loved to eat sweets so she had some fat on her meat but instead of taking away her beauty, this extra fat made her more seductive. She was a perfect example of a sexy milf.
She loved her son with all her might and loved to hug whenever she had time. Today was no different and she was hugging her beloved son from behind. But today something different happened. Rein's body suddenly started glowing which surprised everyone. But then Mona and all the other servants present started cheering with joy.
They were doing so because glowing like this was the proof that the glowing person was awakening their talent as a mage. In this world where becoming a mage was the highest honour, this was the best possible thing that could happen. So all the servants were extremely happy.
Even amongst the nobles, not many were able to awaken as mages. As for commoners, becoming a mage was a legendary experience. So even though Rein was extremely brilliant in almost every possible way, if he could not awaken as a mage then he would never be able to reach the highest peak of this world.
So many of the servants who loved Rein were worried about this possibility. But now they could relax as their master had managed to awaken as a mage as a five year old child which was the earliest this could happen. Now without a doubt Rein would be able to become someone great in this world.
...
After the light covering him died down, everyone started to congratulate Rein with happy smiles on their faces. Mona was so happy that she felt like she could now die and would not feel any regret. From this reaction, it was clear that becoming a mage was a very big deal.
The Markarm family had one small town, three large villages and nine small villages under their rule. And in this whole territory only the current head of the Markarm family, Rein's father was a mage.
He was able to become a viscount only because he was able to become a rank 2 mage which was impressive for this nation. So now that Rein had also managed to become a mage, the future of the Markarm family was safe. A noble family falling from grace because it had no heir capable of becoming a mage was a very common story.
For this reason the nobles normally had many wives and many many children. Asher Markarm, Rein's father was lucky that he was able to get a brilliant son with his first wife who could inherit his title. After Rein's birth he had married twice and had gotten two more sons and one daughter. But none of them were too impressive.
While everyone around him were celebrating and talking about the future of the family, Rein was busy looking over the information he just got. No one in this world was able to know about what kind of talent and magic affinity one had awakened without using specialised equipment. But with his eye of truth, Rein was able to bypass that restriction. So he was currently checking his magic affinity and his talent.
So what kind of talent and affinity would Rein be able to awaken ?
