As I play fetch with little Misty, my wolf pup, I think back on what has happened this year.
Since my state of mind faltered after the incident, I decided to not to linger too much on what happened. I threw a lot of my attention at Misty who has grown quite large. She is up to my waist and as long as my height, and she is still a pup from what I've read.
My mom worried I was still out of it. So after school was out for the year, she accompanied me on a vacation of sorts, out to an island in the middle of a lake. As I was wondering how we would get there, my mom said there was a portal in the royal castle connects to the island.
*********************************************************************************************************************************
I wanted ask why an island connected to the castle. Before I could ask mom said, "The Island is one of the safest places in the empire and surrounded by a ninth tier barrier."
Then she added while laughing, "It is because they owe me, that we may enter whenever we want, it also doesn't hurt that my brother is the emperor." For some reason mom unnerved me with her laugh afterwards. I'm not sure I want to know a lot about her past, mom is very scary when she wants to be.
As I brought Ellie and Misty with me to the island, we headed to the royal castle. I have only been here once before and that was when I was three for play date. I never looked at it, but as we got closer to it I saw a thin film of a barrier placed around the castle. At an entrance point that seemed to coincide with the barrier were a couple guards. They bowed to mom abruptly when they saw her and presented a panel that seems to connect to the barrier. The barrier would only open when it approves a magical signature on its access port. Truthfully, this is something I would love to look at and figure out how it works.
Anyways, as mom implanted her magic into the barrier, it opened. She guided us to the portal with graceful steps and passed by all the guards that were patrolling. It is funny that nobody questioned Misty who was following along with us. Maybe it was because they were cowering to the figure of mom or just plain afraid of her. After we got to the portal door, mom cleared another checkpoint and led us through the portal that seems to work like teleportation magic. I would not find out until much later that this was the only pair of teleportation portals on the continent.

On the other side of the portal was a house that was rather plain, but gave off a comfortable feeling. Mom said we would stay here for about a month and it was a relaxing month at that other than the emperor who appeared randomly. After he talked with mom for a while, mom smacked him across the face and sent him through the portal. I thought it was funny.
The month passed quickly, and I had fun playing with Misty and Ellie, but I knew when I would get back Tina would pout and blame me for leaving her. In the end, nothing much happened, but relaxing at the beach with mom and Ellie.
**********************************************************************************************************************************
The vacation was the only interesting thing that happened other than playing with my little friends. My relaxing days will end tomorrow though. It is the day that my restrictions lift, otherwise called my seventh birthday. I will be able to practice magic.
I called Misty to follow me, and then we headed to get dinner. After that we headed to bed. Misty makes the best pillow.

As the world woke up this morning, everyone greetings from an influx of magical energy swarming the largest mansion in the capital of the Demon Empire welcomed them. The only people who sensed this influx were people near the epicenter or people who had a high magic sensitivity. The girl in a deep sleep caused this commotion that attracted caused a stir of monsters and experts alike.
This girl was Ally, Ellie and her parents gathered around her, frantically trying to figure out what had happened for such a large influx of magic to occur. The only one that knew the actual reason was Tina, who pieced together the reason. What she practiced with Ally caused this. Ally had placed mana into her core when boredom overtook her, and it had accumulated in her core.
Her core didn't have any purpose because of the restriction on magic until she turned seven. This caused her to not understand the severity of accumulated ambient mana in her core as there has never been someone who could manipulate mana before they could use magic. When the "system" released the restrictions today, she was sleeping. Her core converted and absorbed massive amounts of mana. Turning it from mana into magic power using the surroundings to stabilize the abundant untransformed mana in her core.
She had a high fever, and started to sweat heavily. This caused Ellie to run out of the room, grab a cold towel and hurriedly placed it on Ally's forehead. She proceeded to take care of her health conditions and was ready to intervene if something went out of control. As everything happened, everyone in the room was tense and that included Misty. Tina could only watch and she murmured, "This is why I wanted you to store the mana, it will help a lot."
It took an entire day before the phenomenon dissipated and her fever fell. Everyone sighed a breath of relief.
