Crack!

A loud sound was heard outside, my precious hours of sleep were interrupted by that noise, I opened my eyes lazily, I wondered why people loved to fuck at this hour but anyway, what can you do, slowly I opened the door and saw that it was very early, the sun was just rising even though you could not see clearly through the lush trees, as I walked a little more, I finally saw the cause of the problem, it was people logging, perhaps they had nothing else to do earlier? or yes, it was the tribal age, I wondered if I was adapting too fast to this situation maybe it is a favor from the guy so that 80% of the people don't die too fast just by showing up and not being able to endure whatever horrible place they have been sent to, anyway, whatever it is, I like not to be too stressed, then I noticed that all the people in the tribe were awake, apparently I was the last one to wake up.

"My little Lin! You finally woke up, I saw that you were asleep yesterday and that's why I didn't call you for dinner, and tell me..."

Suddenly a whisper came from Helia.

"Have you figured out what's on that leaf yet?"

A tingling went through my back, perhaps this young woman, had nothing else to do in her life, why did this strange friendship touch me, even if I have nice memories with her, I know they are not mine.

"Hey, why so quiet?"

"N-nothing, I haven't figured it out yet."

"You lie, I know your eyes shake when you lie."

'Shit, do I even have that tic, that's something even I didn't know, is she some kind of stalker...or is she just very observant, I'd be more afraid it's a combination of both.'

"I swear I don't know n-nothing."

"Well, I guess I'll have to tell Mr. Laid to help us."

'Damn manipulator, how come you are so dirty being that we are in the tribal era?!!!'

At that point I had no choice but to grab her hands.

"Ho, then you're going to declare me a date so I won't tell, sorry, but I see you as a little brother nothing else."

Shit, why is she looking at me with that look of superiority, does she look like some kind of dominant being or what?.

"No, me, I'll tell you..."

'Shit, I hate you, I hope you die of a tetanus infection or something!'

"You see, it wasn't that hard little Lin, let's go to your hut! hehe."

Well, minimum I can lie to him about the content.....

"And don't lie to me, I know you very well little fox, if you lie to me I'll go to Laid!"

'Fuck, the reincarnated one is me or her...couldn't you have been a reincarnated evil princess or something instead of fucking with me?!'

In the course of my insults towards this horrible person we finally arrived at my hut, at this moment I can only pray that she doesn't possess magical talent.

"Your hut is tidier, did you clean it?"

"Hmm yes"

"Come on don't be so bitter, you just have to tell me your deepest secrets, the usual."

'I think if I kill her I still have a chance to escape, I might carry that big chest on my back might be difficult but I'll manage, you know what, since, what a laziness.'

After that moment I took out the book, I just explained to her how to feel mana, I didn't give her too many explanations about the book, with a, just the words "it's an introduction" and "it's not important enough" was enough, she looked at me with suspicious eyes at first but then just let it go.

Anyway, when I told her about it she just went to a corner of the hut and smiled with her eyes closed, I didn't know how long it was going to take so I went to the second section of the book.

[Introduction on how to form a Mana Heart, as long as you're not an ape anyone can form it]

[Hello, hello whoever is in this chapter, I'm surprised you have talent for this, who knows how many hands this book has passed through, or maybe you're the first I don't know, I just want to congratulate you, you've gone from being a stupid monkey to a slightly smarter monkey, CONGRATULATIONS!!!.

A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

Well, I will teach you about how to form the hearts of mana, it is something complicated to express but considering that you have a little attitude to be able to pass to this chapter I think you can do it.

The way to create a Mana Heart is very simple, you must pass those small particles of magic that you have seen and pass it through your pores, mouth, nose or any part of your body that has an orifice, I would recommend you to do it through the pores, it is the fastest way, it may be somewhat painful at first but anyway it is an essential part that you will have to learn in the future, you know they say that it is better early than late, right? well let's stop my delusions, by passing those little particles through your body you will have to start directing the mana over your body, if you don't know where your heart is you damn ape, here you have an image of the human body, I'm very kind, aren't I? Anyway, making the mana heart is that simple, you just need to take mana to the heart and start integrating it slowly and smoothly, if you apply a little mana on the image a little spell will appear that will make an animation appear on how the mana should move so you don't die from a little photon of it, don't thank me, I know, I'm too noble, well after the construction of the Heart of Mana, you could say it's like a small tower, in a few words, the more solid your base, the better it will be for your future, unless you are the bastard child of magic, in that case you won't have to worry about that no matter if you make your base a piece of shit surely you will become the next god of magic, but surely that is not your case, remember, making a mana heart takes time, don't rush things for a fight for your lost marriage or an upcoming tournament to win something useless for the excuse of more resources, this step is the most important of your existence as an ape and if you achieve it well, I will congratulate you giving you information in the next chapter, well, see you in a while, I wish you luck my little monkey. ]

'Is it me this chapter was more loaded with insults, am I going to get into some kind of love-hate thing with a book?'

Well never mind, this book is the best gift I've ever been given anyway, after applying some mana a small video jumped out, this one showed how to move mana through the body and apply it to the heart, certainly something more useful than an explanation in words.

After watching it a few times and wondering about the incredible modeling skills of the book's creator, I proceeded to sit up in my bed, this time I stretched more, I don't want to wake up numb again, I will try to make the magic come through my pores, I wouldn't do it if I didn't have to, but they already told me that I will have to suffer it later and it is better for me to remember this pain and have an additional benefit to have to do in the future and besides the pain not to gain anything extra, I began to close my eyes, everything was dark again, I no longer felt my surroundings, it seemed enchanted, after a short time it seemed that the only thing that could be heard was my breathing. ..

...

..

.

Particles began to appear in the air, I didn't know how much time had passed now, but I felt it was less time than before, the shining particles kept moving freely all over the place, this time they seemed more animated, some moved faster and others in small intervals, they seemed like little spirits, they hypnotized me for a while but then I recovered my senses a little and began to focus on my main objective.

I started to move the surrounding mana near my skin, it was accumulating in a slow way and sticking around it, I wondered if it was glowing if I opened my eyes, well, it doesn't matter, everything was still dark and the only thing that assured me that I was not asleep were those small particles around me, I was already accumulating a lot of mana around my body, in these moments I started to wonder why something that was eternal and invisible had to pass through my pores instead of just entering directly to me, I don't know, and apparently neither did the book, or maybe I just didn't want to comment on it yet, or directly I didn't know, it's probably one of those great mysteries of magic, but well, I couldn't expect too much from a rude book, passing my little digression, I started to calm down, the mana was accumulated enough and I proceeded to take 3 deep breaths, I knew it was going to hurt, I just hope it's not so much, after finishing my breaths, proceed to put the mana into my body. ...

....

'SHIT! IT HURTS LIKE HELL!!!!! FUCKEERRRRR! I REGRET THIS DECISION TOO MUCH, THE BREAKTHROUGH HURTS TOO MUCH, FUCKERRRRRRR! I HATE YOU BOOK AND ME FROM THE PAST FOR MAKING THIS DECISION, SHITAAAA.'

Yes as you can see at that moment I was in a strong delirium, the cold sweat was going all over my body, the feeling of the incoming mana was like millions of pricks in the body that as time went by were increasing in intensity, I could not stop, I knew that if I stopped besides the intense pain, I was not going to win anything and I do not like to lose in something once I start, rather I do not want to go through the pain a second time, but the first sentence sounds cooler.

The mana was coming in strong torrents into my body, I wondered why now those balls of shit were so affectionate in my moments of pain, they were getting into me as if it was the only habitable place, ignoring the intense pain of shit, I started to direct the mana through my body, straight to my heart, I started to compose it gently inside it, the mana was still sinking slowly into my heart and I hardly saw any change, I started to introduce more and more mana when a small change was seen, in the center of the heart a small crack appeared, it was a beautiful crimson and it seemed crystalline, almost hypnotizing, it seemed that it was not a dangerous crack and it was like in the video, I was happy and tried to introduce more, but at that moment the pain intensified too much, the pain was already becoming so much that I simply could no longer contain the mana, it was as if I was being staked, I felt like I was losing my concentration every moment and the mana was being expelled from my body faster and faster, it was vanishing out of me and even if I tried to catch it the pain simply increased more, there were moments of inflection in which I thought I would faint and the faster it was leaving my body, I simply gave myself the option to give up for now, the change in my heart was done and that was a good thing, that small crack in my heart similar to a beautiful crystal was still there and that relieved me a lot, after taking a deep breath for a while, I opened my eyes, even though I was stunned and somewhat euphoric by the situation, I was too tired, I didn't even turn to see Helia's situation or even if she was still here, I simply closed my eyes again, and I wanted to rest, the pain had been too much for me right now, so like last time, I simply wanted to close my eyes, and then take care of the rest when I woke up.
