Today's the day.  I hope that it will be as interesting as I hoped it would be.

I got up and dressed quickly, picking up a delicious fruit.  It is still a mystery to me why some of the flowers I grow make these fruits.  They seem far too large considering the size of the plant, but they taste amazing.  As I headed out of my dorm I ran out to the seniors building.  For some reason my teacher... well first teacher that really taught me anything other than magics has a gigantic lab in their school.

Nothing to complain about though, since it just gave me an excuse to be in the senior's building without being caught.  Truthfully the history of this world is very bland, or at least what they teach.  I may want to ask mom if I can have access to the royal library.  Well... if there is a royal library.  Wait, I was never told if there was a royal library.

Skating is a fun way to get to classes; since I can create an icy smooth surface it is much faster and fun.  When I first started doing this, this semester I was not that good at skating, but who knew that it would become a skill.  I can't make an ice platform in the air for it yet, but soon enough I will be able to make slides. The school is probably also glad that it melts after I become three meters away from it.  

Well I skated my way to the building and entered to lab to find that my teacher was still sleeping.  This is a first, I wonder if I should wake him up.  Hmm...this should be a fun idea.  I grabbed a phoenix feather that was on the table and started to tickle his feet that were hanging over the couch ledge.  He got up with a flurry and fell down, so I laughed.

He got up huffily and angrily said, "Ally do you really need to wake me up that way?"

I smiled back, "Yep, when else am I going to wake you up.  Every other time I am here you are always awake and it seemed like a fun idea."

He seemed to give up and just asked, "Do you want to know why I was asleep?  I was preparing the ingredients to be used today.  To be honest it wouldn't have been this much if you didn't want to alter something as fundamental as gravity.  It isn't as strenuous as spatial magic, but it is up there.  It also requires a void magic user, and since they aren't usually found now.... and you just so happened to become one..."

"I blame the system"

"And I blame your mother, abnormalities giving birth to abnormalities.  I should also blame your father for being an abnormality that could be compared to your mother."

I snickered and said, "You still like abnormalities, isn't that why you agreed to teach me."

I then remembered the second week of the New Year when he gave me my punishment for blowing up the magic room.  I was scared when he decided to start the conversation by saying, "Ally, your punishment will be decided today."  I now know why to consider my teacher a threat.  I will never allow him to cook for me... EVER.  He decided that my punishment was to eat three foods.  I thought that might be good until it was an eyeball, a liver, and what could be considered Rocky Mountain Oysters.

I shivered after remembering the abnormality of my teacher.  How could he eat that stuff?  It made me want to vomit, I'm sure I will never get over this.  It will scar me for life.

As I returned from my thoughts, teacher was walking over to the workbench to grab the supplies.  He filled the awkward silence by talking about the procedure.

"Ally, since you decided to make a gravity manipulating sword as your first enchantment, we will need to make sure that everything is ok.  Considering that it is your magic that you will be manipulating and you will need to be able to create the blueprint I gave you before on this sword, please remember that the items used to conduct the magic amplify it, nothing like that failed product you tried to create before."

I went to the enchantment in the middle of the room that amplifies the control of a magic user and sat down.  Teacher handed me the void trigram to use for this. To be entirely honest I feel decently confident with all this assistance I can make a fairly useful gravity-manipulating sword.  Since I was getting this as a gift for Kylie I picked out a cool sword.  Teacher also approved since I had no clue if it was actually useful or just decoration.  It still made me question him on why he was a weapons expert.  He said that it came with the job of making magical tools or I guess magical weapons in this case.

"Ally you can start now, I will watch and make sure you don't overuse your mana.  Even with your amount of magic, your low level of void magic consumes it a lot of magic power.  Please tell me if it is close to empty and I can attempt to complete it using the residual magic."

I started by holding the void trigram and focusing on controlling the void magic to perfectly match the blueprint.  I'm glad that there is a blueprint for some tool designs since trial and error would take a lot of time.  Half a day past before I was almost out of magic power and I put the finishing touches on the enchantment.  I was too tired to try and make the enchantment stronger, and it is impossible to improve an enchantment after it is finalized.  It is very unlikely to run into a person who can take away an enchantment also.

Since I wasn't completely drained, I picked up the sword and manipulated it slightly and it became very light.  It was awesome to have made something, even if it is only something like this.

"Teacher, I think this sword is good.  I am not sure if it is the best it could be, but I like it as a first project.  Thank you."

He looked rather happy also, so I hope that it wasn't that much of a burden on him.  Well, I guess I will go back home.  As I tried to start leaving I said, "Bye Teacher."

Right after I left out the door I tripped over the doorframe and fell rather hard down.  It's a good thing that I left the sword on the workbench, because that would have been an accident waiting to happen.  Before I could push myself up teacher picked me up and carried me back to my room.  I was too tired to really care about it, but I was satisfied with today.  Even with no school today it was interesting.

**Next Day**

I woke up and realized I fell asleep in teacher's arms and don't remember getting back home. Oh Ellie is over there, "Hi Ellie."

"Mistress, you came home afternoon and were already asleep.  Your teacher... said that you used too much mana and were tired so I wasn't as worried, but mistress you did leave yesterday without telling anyone."

"Oh yea, I was so excited to make something that I forgot.  Sorry Ellie, I didn't mean to worry you.  I did tell you before that today was the day for the experiment."

"Yes mistress you did, but it is still worrying when you leave without a trace."

"Sorry Ellie, I will remember next time."

"Mistress has school been fun for you these past few months?  You don't really talk about it much, but Rose has reminded me that you are still a tutor.  So it seems that you are warming up to people."

"Well, tutoring turned out to be fun.... Even if the people took more than a year to warm up to me.... I found a past time of watching funny pair of people interact. They are entertaining and I wonder who they are actually.  I should actually talk to them rather than just watch, but well... I haven't found a good time to talk to them.... and I'm not sure they would receive me well."

"Just go with your heart mistress.  It isn't like it is life or death, just learning to interact with more people is important.  I know you have best friends, but having regular friends is also nice."

She left with a smile and I went to take a bath since I didn't actually take one yesterday.  I can't really blame anything other than me having overexcitement, but I wonder how I should feel about myself.  I am in a new life with new people.  I have accepted that I will never be the same person as I was before, but I haven't denied that I was him.  It is just that sometimes I felt a disconnect with my past life.  It is like I can remember facts and theories, but feel less emotional about the world as a whole.  

Is this what is considered acceptance, or is this just the past becoming less relevant.  I don't know since I can't really tell and there is no real event that I could compare it to.  I just wonder if my lost life had any consequence in my past world.  My friends may have grieved, but I'm not sure if I left any mark on that world. I wonder if that means that now I'm forgotten in history in the ever-turning world.

Well, I won't know really since I can't go back, but now I am going to live this life.  My body has been growing... in many ways.  Being 12 and all is now just forcing me to think about when I will get my period.  This is funny because nobody really told me about that so far, I wonder if they assume that I know it will happen since I had a curiosity in biology.

Well, I'm just going to relax now.  If stressing about things made them better, the world would be a perfect place now wouldn't it.
