After one month I started to hear and see clearly maybe because of a healthy body, but I act likes baby, for my parent not to be worried, I find it funny when my mother playing with me and do some doddle, I cry when my father trying to kiss me, is not that I want to hurt his feeling but I feel awkward every time he is using his face to play with me.
One time at midnight when I'm thinking deep, I notice that there’s something bluish mini particles in the air, it should be what they call Mana, I know that Int increase the Mana but I also know it’s impossible to level up now, while I'm trying to sense and control the Mana around me, after a couple of night trying out, when I check my status I notice that my Mana increase 27 points, with still having 1 Int.

'Is this some bug?, or I guess this blue system is not all... maybe it’s just a helping tool to analyze one status , the capability to quantify.... let's see I'm a good actor but I don't have skill actor, I almost make my little goddess cry back there using my actor talent... I’m not pro at basketball but still at least I know how to, I should have basketball skill or dribbling skill before, I know basic English language but is not skill like Language of Syntaria'
"Class Unlocked Mage Apprentice"
Name : Jack HP : 20/20 Mana : 3/362
I check why my Mana and it turned into 362 and I found out that 'Mage Apprentice Class' gives 2 Int and 200 Mana
"So becoming apprentice have a small advantage," I think I should learn as many class as possible.
After 6 months, I already try to speak 'mama' or 'papa' and there’s a time when my father drunk a little and playing with me, I want to shout, 'STOP FATHER!' but they might think, I’m a demon or something.
Now I got a Skill: Mana Manipulation Lvl1 and Mana Recovery Lvl1
I try to manipulate Mana every day until Mana turn 0 but when it turns to 5, I almost block out from having a headache, that's why I got mind resistance.
After 9 months I can walk but don't show it until 1 year old
I always run until I exhausted, my father thinks I always like to run 'as a game'.
I sleep at 7 pm, and wake up at midnight for Mana manipulation, I'm always in good condition every time I wake up full of vigor, I don’t know how to create another element so I just spend my Mana by creating Mana ball, I learned a skill after another 6 months using the same procedure, before creating Mana Ball it will disperse in the air but now I can throw it, it can create a small pit to the ground, but still I make it disperse in the air at night.
"Skill Upgrade: Perseverance lvl1"
After I practice my body, I learned Endurance and then Mind Resistance combines with it and turned new skill.
I'm already 3 years old now, my mother introduces me to a little like nursery school here, it’s a medium house. There are around 11 children inside. The woman is around 19 years old act as a teacher here in the village.
Simple brown hair with black eyes and a natural beauty that looks very friendly,
But what I'm curious about is her husband , a grey hair with a tattoo in left eyes, 25yrs old man with an adventurer clothing, and have a ears of dog and tail, I grab tail while he's talking with my mother and he jumps which almost make me throw to the ground if I'm not holding it tightly, my mother and the teacher named Leonora laughing while I am trying to pet the tail of that man, he glared at me trying to scare me but I'm just curious, he is the first demi human I see after being reborn, the man named Gino.
After a week, I start to attend school well 3x a week every 9 AM- 12 PM, I learn some history of this world, I have two friends Kara and Gin, this two always follow me like I’m the leader of the group when I go out every morning they already in front of my house.
Kara is a silver hair, a silver tail cute little girl with black crystal eyes daughter of Leonora and Gino.
Gin is a brown hair little boy his father is one of the hunters in the Village just like my father but good at using sword name Hubert.
His mother Cynthia always go to my mother delivering cookies for me so I don't mind playing with Gin as thanks to her mother.
Gin and Kara are 1 year younger than me.
Now I'm 8yrs old, one day my mother saw me playing with Mana Ball which is already lvl2, for every day doing it I already increase my Mana a lot, my mother shock and ask me how I do that and I said when I'm around 5 I saw blue dots in the air, and start to create a ball using that.
I learned that my mother is also an adventurer before he met my father my father is villager hunter, he's good at using a bow.
My mother is some kind of light magician in their party she can use two skills one is healing, and second is a barrier.
I urge her to teach me but she said it’s not something to learn easily and explain it to me.
She told me that after I grow up, I should become a good swordsman or a great man, not a healer.
"Don't worry mom I'm going to be a great man, swordsman, magician, healer and everything. I always practice sword with Gin and his father every day so don't worry about it" I said
-- Reminiscent start --
Almost every day I find time to go to Gin house to practice sword with him and her father after practice, we eat lunch then play with Kara, I like her tail and ears I always pet her but I’m only allowed up to 5min then she will laid in my lap then tell her princess story, like Cinderella, sleeping beauty which after some time most of the child in my village listen to my "imagination story", well that’s what I tell them, then we always play Hero's saving the Princess. They keep getting angry to me because I always act as the villain in our play pfft!*
I always chopped the head of Gin because he starting to like being a villain too, and one day I tell them why I chopped the head of Gin
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
"Remember in the future... if I create a group, I will make it strongest group which going to surpass Heroes Party and in my group, I should only be allowed to be the bad guys understand?"
Other kids nod with Kara look like they understand but not, only Gin really get the gist of it and asked.
"Why you’re going to be the bad guy and your groupmate should are not allowed...
If you're going to be bad guys I will beat you to pulp because if you're going to create a group, I'm going to join it" Gin
I pat the shoulder of Gin and sincerely said
"If I’m going to make a group, first in my group golden rules will be no betrayal trust will be the foundation of it.
Second I'm going to be the leader of the group if there's a time I need to do bad things for sake of my group I will be willing to do it, even the kingdom think I’m the bad guy, so long as that group trust me, believe me, more than the rumors, it’s enough" I said smiling to Gin.
Well, to be honest Gin is one of my prospect party members even they don’t have skill list I know his swordsmanship is better than other because we always sparing, and because I'm going to recruit Gin, Kara will surely join.
Well, every time I and Gin slip to the village hunter to take a bath to the river she always joined us and threatening us to tell other.
Even though I knew some hunter village keep watching us secretly for safety.
-- Reminiscent end --
Then my mother laughs at me because I don't have a class yet so it’s impossible to learn
"You know even though many years I do not work as an adventurer but the last time I check I’m already rank 2, level 19, and my Mana is almost thousand, and you should first become Priest Apprentice to learn Heal or Barrier skill.
I know you can be a great man in the future even Hubert always full of praise to your swordsmanship, you are my child so you're destined to be great pfft*! pfft*!" She carefully tries to explain it to me while laughing.
Until I said,
"Mother, can you use Mana Ball?" I said to my mother and then I continue "It should be Magician Skill but I learn it without class yet so I think I can learn your Heal /Barrier too so I can help others." She shock when she realizes that I don't have yet a class but I already learned Mana Ball, and what’s more the Mana Ball still around while we're talking.
My mother eye shone and she said: "Okay jack I will show you, but only today if you didn't learn you shouldn't felt down understood?" I nod after that she teaches me the incantation and creates a small cut on her finger.
"Leah eb dlihc rouy tel sseddog ho" Anna invoke heal and light shot to her boy and the small wound disappears.
I cut my finger a little then copy my mother chant.
"Leah eb dlihc ruoy tel sseddog ho" A light shot to my body then a pale light appear then heal my wound.
My mother was shocked then become happy said that I'm a talent among the talents she spends 3 Months to learn it but I spend only one try.
I think it’s because her Mana is not enough at first try, that's why she can't cast it, I feel like I'm going to collapse after I use heal because its spend 210 Mana to me and I already spend Mana with Mana Ball, to begin with, Barrier.
"Class Unlocked: Priest Apprentice!!!"
Some blue screen showed on the side of my view.

'I think I should be par on level 6 or 7 adventurers or so' Jack
I do a lot of things every day in or out the school.
You might think how I get steal or become Assassin Apprentice, in my neighborhood theirs a woman catkin name Mirna 16 years old look like bandit the way she wears cloth, I always steal apple in her backyard almost every other day, there are times my father brought me into her house and asking for a good knife, my father is a hunter using bow but her secondary weapon is dagger, when my father and her start talking I sneak to her back and hug her, I caught her tail then she instinctively throw me and notice that I was hurt my father worry to me but Mirna goes to my front hurried with face full of worry, I grab her and try to pet her head my father laugh then said.
"First you grab, Gino tail and I heard you always play the ears and tail of her daughter which giving him an urge to hit you every time he saw you together and now Mirna sigh**" Nelson
"I asked him that, I will make him sleep on my lap if he allowed me to pet him too, she must be jealous to Kara… I think..." I speak in my child mode every time I speak with Gino and all he does is turn back and walk away from me pfft*! pfft*!, her wife Leonora always laughing at him, and before they left Leonora always touch my head saying to me,
"Little Jack, remember never my bully my little princess understand " Nora then she will smile
"Yes Auntie Nora, I will sell my father never bully Kara" and I always answer with hand on my chest and she always left smiling
"By the way Sister Mirna, I always steal apple in your backyard every other day," I tell them straight.
Well sometimes I put in my storage; well its time freeze and I have nothing to put into it.
My father feels like looking for a crack to bury his self, I continue hugging her head petting her head and ears.
"It’s ok I’m not selling it and I always see you getting there, and it’s not that I can’t eat it all" Mirna, I'm not sure if she’s happy from my petting or she’s happy because I call her sister.
"Sister Mirna can I continue to steal fruit? And is it ok if I look for you?" I asked.
"Well it’s not stealing when you ask permission" Mirna
After we left there
Every time I steal apple I look for her, and sneak attack on her to pet her, and one day while petting her something pop up to me

Then in school
I found out that according to the history of Syntaria Kingdom the last time they summoned heroes was almost ten thousands of years ago and before that, almost eighteen thousand years ago, according to our teacher other information about summoned hero before 18k years ago may find in the big library, in the big city...,
But for now, there's no news about new summoned hero yet.
At first, I thought maybe they didn’t announce it yet, but my father says once summoned a hero it should be the whole kingdom will be able to know it because the castle should prepare a big ritual then at summoning time light which like piercing the sky will be seen all over the capital.
According to the book record, every time summoned happen a light shot up to the sky like piercing the heaven event.
It’s symbolized that any calamity happens, the god will always give a path to salvation.
So I think one theory.
I was born earlier than the hero's arrival...
