Sighing, I start to focus some mana into the keyhole and with some effort unlock the door.
Swinging it open, I enter the living room and glance around the room noticing a few changes that take me a little by surprise.
The T.V is missing and some furniture is gone from which I can only conclude are being used to pay off some of the debts piled up over the years.
I did expect for there to be money problems but to this extent, I guess I haven't really understood the hardships they had to go through yet.
While looking around the room I take a seat on the couch and my eyes are attracted to the photos of me and my sister growing up with some others of my dad and mum.
I take a few minutes while sinking into my own world to calm my racing heart and mind from my emotions contained in me about to surface.
Getting up before I start to remember the past once again, I shift my way upstairs heading to my room which seems to have a large concentration of mana which might take a few more days before it dissipates completely.
Slowly opening the door, instead of a scene displaying my room being neat and tidy from being untouched, I'm being greeted by a pool of blood on the floor that seemed to have dried up.
Even if this did occur recently and there is some evidence of someone trying to remove it, It won't go away anytime soon since it's stained all over the carpet.
I wonder how Akari didn't manage to faint after seeing someone in such a state, I'll have to make it up to her eventually.
Willing my mana through my fingers I send it towards the blood, or more specifically the oxygen contained in it, swirling it up as if it's dust being picked up in wind and collecting together in a ball.
Now holding a small thick red ball which is hovering over my hand, I walk towards the bathroom and send it down the toilet before flushing it.
I have no idea what to do with a ball of blood like anyone else, so sending it down the toilet like it's a dead goldfish is the only thing I can think of.
The biggest reason that made everyone believe I was dangerous and what frightened most people in the other world is the way I use my mana and not necessarily my large mana pool or affinity to each element.
Since I was somewhat knowledgeable in science including some of the periodic elements and what they make up, instead of what most people use to manipulate mana which I would call the 'result', I imagine the 'process' and 'direction'.
Using this, I would be able to literally control people's bodies and even instantly explode their hearts without much effort unless they were a skilled mage.
People thought that it had something to do with my powers but if they knew that almost anyone can do it as long as they know what to do, have a strong affinity for both wind and water magic anyone could do it.
The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.
Of course, I never told anyone how to do any of this but after a while, people found a way to prevent this by surrounding their bodies with mana that disrupt outside interference which was fighting the demon queen was so difficult.
From what I learnt about the world's history before I was summoned, other beings were summoned with both similar background and knowledge as me but that doesn't make sense at all.
Taking into account that these summonings had been going on for at least 300 years, I learnt that most of the summoned heroes had a similar appearance to what I had when I first summoned and introduced similar knowledge to what I knew.
That would mean they all came at around the same timeline as me, but I've both spent 7 years over and missed exactly 7 years on Earth so how did these so called heroes come bypass time?
The only thing I can think of is that there are either parallel worlds to mine which would make sense or the summoning magic somehow affects time and the return summoning does the similar thing but in reverse.
Stepping out of my thoughts, I walk back into my room leap into the bed as I start to continue healing my body and mana pool.
After about half an hour I start to fall asleep to regain my energy and pass the time until Akari returns home from school.
----------------------------------------
"Wake up you idiot!"
I feeling some pain in my chest and my vision is shaken violently before It stops suddenly.
Akari is leaning over me while tears are falling off her face onto me which wakes me up from my sleep.
Regaining my senses, I quickly get up and look around the around to see if there's any dangerous around before looking towards Akari.
Closing my eyes and sensing if anyone else other than us are in the house shows up with no results so i'm a little confused to why Akari seems to be so depressed suddenly.
"Whats wrong? Did something happen?"
I try to calm her down as I question her but she seems to be mad at something since she keeps hitting away my hands.
"You idiot! I thought you disappeared again since the hospital called saying you disappeared!"
Is that why she's mad?
Even if they called Akari about me disappearing wouldn't there be some sort of note in the room saying where I went?
"What do you mean? Didn't I leave something saying message to tell the nurses that I was going home?"
"What are you talking about? They just said there was a piece of paper with scribbles written all over it!"
What does she mean?
I wrote it detailing where I was going and... ah, I wrote it in another language by mistake didn't I?
I ended up wasting my time writing a note to no one at all since only I am able to read it.
Iyah, that's embarrassing since I promised I wouldn't let them worry about me anymore and that I would take care of them for now on but I seem to be causing unneeded stress.
"Ah, sorry about that Akari. I just couldn't wait coming home so I wanted to welcome you back from school so much."
Akari seems to of calmed down a lot more since I told her that I came home just to do something as dumb as welcome her home.
She looks a little embarrassed which is another cute expression I got from her since coming here.
I'm not a sis-con alright? It's just that i've missed her smile for so long that it's my fuel for living now.
I'm not okay!
"T,that doesn't matter! You should be resting until you get better...and.. eh?"
Akari just looks at me with a confused expressing as she starts to lift my arm up staring intently at where my wounds use to be.
"Akari, didn't I tell you I'm okay before? I'm your older brother and I have to be good and strong to be able to protect you now so theres nothing to worry about."
I say while smiling at her confused expression.
"How did you get here in your condition?..No how did you even get better?"
"Mmmm, you wouldn't believe me even if I told you Akari. Just think of it as a little magic."
A chuckle a bit from her confusion as Akari starts to question me somewhere asking if i'm really okay and if I need any help.
"Akari, you just got home right? You must be tired from school so let me cook us something before mom gets home okay?"
"..Okay but don't strain yourself anymore alright? I'll tell mother your home and your okay.."
Alright, time to impress my little Akari with my improved cooking skills which I learnt from others during my travels!
