*[Age 7: You advance further in your study of the path of magic. Although you cannot go out to school and basically only stay at home in the [Botanical Garden] to study magecraft, your life is not boring. Because your sister Manaka Sajyou, after returning from school each day, will tell you about everything she experienced at school, which allows you to imagine the kind of atmosphere of being on a school campus.]*
*[And whenever your sister tells her stories, you always listen with a smile on your face. You understand that if you hadn't once expressed your anticipation for school, your sister probably wouldn't spend time every day specifically retelling her experiences to you. You are very grateful for this and decide that you must repay her in the future.]*
*[Age 8: Your understanding of magecraft has already surpassed your adoptive father's. However, compared to the knowledge of black magic and herbology passed down in your family, you are more skilled in the magecraft of alchemy.]*
*[You have learned of the "Emerald Tablet," the "Corpus Hermeticum," "The Book of Abraham the Jew," "The Darkness of the Secret Arts," "The Cultivation of Gold"...]*
*[Through your own analysis and research, you design a special alchemical matrix. Theoretically, by inscribing this alchemical matrix on specific magical materials and combining it with your precise computational ability, you can rapidly use the power of the five great elements in a short time.]*
*[This research achievement of yours shocks your adoptive father. He mutters to himself that perhaps, rather than becoming a magus, you would be more suited to becoming one of the alchemists at the Atlas Institute.]*
*[Of course, this is just a passing remark, because after your sister Manaka hears this, she begins to complain to your adoptive father about how he could even entertain the idea of sending you to the Atlas Institute to study alchemy.]*
*[Your adoptive father seems to be receiving a complaint from his daughter for the first time, but he is not angry. Instead, after a moment of silence, he apologizes with a sense of relief and encourages you to continue working hard.]*
*[Age 9: After a year of hard work, you have perfected your theory and created your own exclusive Mystic Code.]*
*[Its appearance is roughly that of a pure white glove made of a special material, with a crimson alchemical matrix drawn on the back of the hand. Of course, the description of the colors was all told to you by your sister Manaka.]*
*[After all, the completion of this Mystic Code was also due in no small part to her contribution.]*
*[However, in this year, having long since grown accustomed to everything at home and following common sense, you politely decline your sister Manaka's offer to help you wash your body as she had in the past.]*
*[This seems to surprise your sister somewhat, as if some predetermined plan has once again met with an accident.]*
*[But your sister quickly seems to compose herself, gently reminding you to be careful when you are alone in the bathroom, before turning to leave, muttering in confusion:]*
*["Where on earth did he learn the common sense about the differences between men and women? I don't think I ever taught him that. Could it have been Father..."]*
*[Age 10: You begin to learn about astrology. After all, alchemy and astrology are closely related in some ways, and sure enough, you quickly get the hang of it, even being able to simply predict the weather conditions for the next day.]*
*[Although this kind of thing can be known more or less just by relying on the weather forecast, the act of reaching a conclusion through your own efforts still fills your heart with excitement.]*
*[At the same time, as you grow older, your appearance also gradually becomes more and more outstanding.]*
*[You have awakened the talent 'Fair-Faced Youth (A+)': Your appearance is like one of the most outstanding works among nature's creations. Paired with your fair skin from constantly staying indoors and your occasional posture in a wheelchair, unless their will is as strong as iron, most living beings will be attracted by your aura.]*
*[Thanks to this, your sister Manaka always likes to stare at your face during afternoon tea time, saying things with unclear meaning like, "If a 'prince' existed in reality, this is what he should look like," "Why aren't you growing up faster," and "As I thought, my original idea was not wrong." ]*
*[And whenever you try to ask, your sister Manaka will always smile gently and tell you it's nothing, while at the same time telling you a new fairy tale about a prince and princess.]*
*[You understand that your sister must be quite fond of this type of fairy tale, otherwise she wouldn't have been telling them since she was little until now, without a trace of boredom.]*
*[Of course, you don't find it tiresome either. After all, your sister Manaka has taken such meticulous care of you for so many years. Although you haven't been able to repay her all this time, you have also decided to become someone who will not disappoint her.]*
*[Although you cannot guarantee that you can become as upright, friendly, and brave as the princes in the stories, surrounded by everyone, at least you can rely on your own strength to protect your sister and adoptive father.]*
*[Age 11: Your range of involvement in magecraft becomes even wider. However, this year, for some unknown reason, your sister Manaka has to drink a cup of hot milk every night before going to sleep.]*
*[And you can occasionally hear her muttering complaints.]*
*["Don't tell me they really won't grow at all? I clearly remember that Mother's weren't that small, so it shouldn't be a genetic problem..."]*
*[You ask your sister with some curiosity what's wrong, but every time, your sister just smiles awkwardly, changes the subject, and tells you that this is not something a boy should know about.]*
*[You nod, half-understanding, but still remember your sister's words and do not ask about it again.]*
*[Age 12: Your body grows healthily. Although you still have to rely on the prosthetic-limb Mystic Codes to walk freely on the ground, you do not dislike this peaceful life where you can gain new knowledge every day; on the contrary, you somewhat enjoy it.]*
*[Age 13: The relationship between you and your sister does not grow distant with age, but instead becomes somewhat closer.]*
*[However, one day at the dinner table, your adoptive father suddenly suggests that it is about time for you and your sister to sleep in separate rooms. You have no objections and just nod in accordance with your adoptive father's words.]*
*[But your sister Manaka retorts angrily at your adoptive father. However, when your adoptive father asks your sister why she is refusing this suggestion, your sister suddenly begins to stammer, unable to give a clear reason, and ultimately can only agree to your adoptive father's opinion.]*
*[However, on several nights, your sister Manaka still secretly comes to your room and sleeps in an embrace with you.]*
*[You guess that your sister is probably afraid of sleeping alone at night, which is why she keeps doing this, so you don't say anything, just return a smile to her.]*
*[This year, your sister still insists on drinking a cup of hot milk every night.]*
*[Age 14: You shed your childishness and begin to enter your teenage years. Your body has also grown, and at the same time, your appearance and aura have become even more attractive.]*
*[Your adoptive father says that you are one who is beloved by the path of magic, and that "beauty" is also a form of Mystery. It is likely due to your own talent and aptitude that so many "demonic" factors have gathered in you. But he also says that you don't need to worry about this, because your range of activity is limited to your home, so there is no need to worry about causing a commotion or the like.]*
*[In fact, you don't have any specific concept of this matter, but since your adoptive father has said so, you no longer pay it any mind.]*
*[This year, your sister still insists on drinking a cup of hot milk every night.]*
*[Age 15: You thought your life would continue on like this without any changes.]*
*[Until one day, your adoptive father suddenly says something at the dinner table: that you have all decided to move to a city called "Fuyuki City"...]*
