I woke up and i found that my eyes were watery, when i touched them it was like triggering an eruption of tears, hot streaks of tears began to glide down on my cheeks, remembering the dream i just had .
It has been a week now since the disappearance of my big brother and i was still digesting the last gift he left for me, his supernatural magic Fabrication, raising the number of superpowers magic i have to 4, maybe 5 if i were to count the unconfirmed superpower related to my processing power .
I don't know how rare a superpower magic user to be found, or how many superpowers he can have before being called unique, but from the looks of it having 1 was already something unique, so me having 5 should pass as being unique as well, an easily pass too .
These last days i came to understand a lot of different things and experience all sorts of things, that i was never able to do before, one of those things was sarcasm, i these days fell in love with it and tend to use it frequently .
The new magic given to me by my older brother gave me the ability to adjust my information body as i wanted it to be seen by others as, able to change directly the information about me in the brain of others, changing how they perceive me .
I tried using this magic for a few times to get more experience with it and get used to it in the past week and the first thing i noted when i invoked the ritual for the first time was that the color in my eyes become more deeper and my eyes began to flash, giving my eyes more ominous feeling to it, making the people unable to help being drawn to it .
My test subject was first my eyes, my intention was to make them appear more normal looking than they were, after a few failed tries, i successfully succeeded in making them look like a normal pair of purple eyes, but wasn't able to hide the magic inside of them still .
The change that happened to my eyes made the doctor storm to my room and did a huge amount of checks on me, but seeing that there was no problem with me, he dealt with it as just the mutation vanishing, after making sure that there was no other changes to me he finally left .
In the rest of the week, i began to test searching for information on the mind of the researchers in front of me, but i postponed doing anything this dangerous after my first try ended in almost making my target have a stroke, just as i was beginning to inspect his subconscious, my older brother said that using this ability was a bit costly, but i kept the magic on for quite some time now and i felt no sign of exhaustion whatsoever .
So i ended up concluding that i had so much Psions that i can keep the effect on for as long as i wanted to, hoping for my amount of Psions to deplete was nothing but a fool dream, due to Psionic Nuclear Reactor, that was the name it was called by those guys, kept generating more and more Psions for me to use .
But i stopped trying to gather information from the mind of those guys due to how risky it was, but i used it to test Maglan state of mind from time to time, gaining more experience with using this superpower while also giving greetings to Maglan from time to time, so it was certainly a win win situation .
In this year, i was also able to finally understand the weird thing with my body, the problem was related to two of my superpowers working together in making me stronger, Black Hole was what i renamed the black whirlpool and the other superpower was the PSIONIC NUCLEAR REACTOR .
It appeared that not only was it able to create psions for me to use, it also gave out a huge amount of radiation that was helping my body growing more stronger, but the amount that keep gushing was coming out with radiation miasma, enough to contaminate the entire facility even with the security procedure and all the cautionary arrangements being taken .
But here came the Black Hole part in all of this, it absorbed all the gushing radiation even the amount that was already being digested by my body and conversed all of it to a pure refined energy that will benefit my body, the gushing of the radiation wasn't controllable, it happened randomly and not occasionally, the periods between each outburst and the next one weren't fixed, forcing all the researchers who come to the room to need to put an anti-radiation suits before taking a single step into the room .
The energy produced by the Black Hole benefited me greatly, it made my body taller and much sturdier as well, the first guch of radiation appeared after i was a month old and made all the warning sirens go off, a 15 days later i began walk steadily and my body posture was perfectly stable, every time the radiation came, improvement came directly after .
These kind of incidents made all the researchers in this institution to be wary of coming to my room, so most of the check ups were done remotely and even those who required a direct contact with me, they came to the room and asked me to follow the steps needed for the check up myself as they preferred to stay at the door frame of the room, in case of something unfortunate suddenly happening .
I wanted to experiment with my magic a bit more, but i only had an hour of free time without being under surveillance as per the agreement made by me with the head researcher of the project, i didn't suggest that hour for the sake of training my magic at first, it happened on a whim, all of it .
I just felt suffocated at being surveilled while crying at that time, so i wanted to have time out from the surveillance and deeming that i don't want to say a single word to those guys, i take action and declared my intention through my action and the doctor had no choice but to agree to my request, otherwise i might have gone berserk at the same moment and destroyed everything he had worked hard for .
He agreed and the thought of using this hour to train only came to my mind after discovering the existence of Fabrication, but since i began to get bored more often now, i can't help but want to have fun and the only fun i can get down here in this lab was magic, but i knew that these guys were documenting everything i do, so i refrained from using magic than when it was needed .
Like when they came to teach me about the systemic way of invoking magic and such, but for some reasons these lesson was getting less and less lately, much to my dismay .
It might be related that incident when the doctor preached our agreement after noticing me using magic through the sensors in the room, so he tried to sneak a peek at what was i doing, thinking of course that i won't be able to see him, but i did and a Psion Bullet was all that it took to have him reduce the amount of magica applications lessons and replaced it with calligraphy .
I didn't hate being taught calligraphy, in fact i have to some extent enjoy it, but i wanted to keep experimenting with my magic a bit more .
The thought of getting out of here came to mind the moment i saw those guys barging into my room after waking up or more accurate to say after i awakened as Yotsuba Ryuu, not number 40 anymore .
But me being clueless on where to go after getting out of here, deterred my resolve to leave this place at that time, that was the reason to why i was trying to search for information from those researchers, but for the time being seemed to be quite futile .
I didn't expect that another deterrence will appear holding me back from leaving this place, a psychological one too .
It was related to that dream i kept on having, the woman that appeared on my dream was supposedly my mother, she kept leaving me behind in my dream, no matter how hard i tried to run after her, the only result will be me waking up with tears on my eyes and this didn't happened on a regular basis, no this happened almost daily, everyday in the past six days, i kept on having the same dream with a bit of difference to its plotline but the end was always the same .
That dream brought back a huge question i had no clear answer for to my mind .
What if she didn't accept me, no what if she loathed me, these were the question that had me unable to strengthen my heart and resolve and leave this place, every time the thought of escaping this place came to my mind, it will be followed by those questions, tossing me into a relentless trip of pain and suffering, i was still intent on getting out of here, but at least i need to find an answer to any of my questions first .
When i become two years old, i did a few more check ups and was introduced to a quite large amount of subjects to learn, i absorbed all the knowledge i could get my hands on like a sponge, i also received a birthday card from Morinaga-san through a friend of her in a discreet way, in the card she told me that she made a new friend on my behalf, a cute girl with some teeth problem with the name Mayumi and that she wish me a happy birthday and she too, the card warmed my heart a bit and i made a note to thank her when she come back .
I was making an utmost use of the hour i had of free time every day and made quite the great progress in fusing the systematic modern magic and the ancient magic, intending to be able to to use Black Hole magic by assimilating it to the mix that will come from fusing the two system together, but even though their were some undeniable similarities between how the two system invoked phenomena, they had quite the differences as well, i still were stuck about some of my theories on magic, making my progress slow down a bit, but i was happy to have made some progress .
25th of March 2083 was the date when i become 3 years old, this time i didn't receive a birthday card from Morinaga-san most likely due to the researcher that was helping in delivering the massage was removed from the operation .
The new cloning operation was based and aimed at cloning me, the only excellent sample of the previous batch, not only was i excellent but i exceeded that by a far margin, that what made those guys shift the basis of their cloning operation from being my older brother DNA to mine .
They came and extracted a huge amount of blood and tissues from me, but they were forced to wait a whole year for the amount of radiation in them to disappear, then another year for the new clones to began be produced .
In a blink of an eye, i was 5 years old who looked to be more of a middle school student, during the last two years the only thing that progressed was my height and the removal of the lock on my door and the door itself was also removed, the reason for that was simple, Maglan came not looking like how he used to be 5 years ago, he seemed to be barley holding tight to the last ounce of his sanity, all thanks to my Fabrication .
He came kicking the door forcefully and went flying through the door in the exact same manner, i had already forgot about the agreement that guy had with the doctor and he came here today, meaning that the doctor indeed can't be trusted, but their was no need to be afraid of anything no more, i had already completed 70 percent of my theory on magic, two years more and i will be able to finish it and no matter whether i was able to get an answer to my question or not, i will get out of here and look for Morinaga-san to help me find the whereabouts of the Yotsuba family .
In my 6th birthday, i came with a way to use Fabrication to like what my older brother did before in my subconscious, a way to increase the free time in hand by casting an illusion on myself to prolong the time i have to train, but using it for long time have a severe consequences on my state of mind, nothing that magic can't solve, but the irritation that came with the pain can't be solved that easy, but using it once or twice a week didn't seem to have much of a consequence on me .
During my 7th birthday the ugly face of Maglan appeared once again in front of me, asking for my cooperation, but this time he asked nicely, so i agreed to let him do a few tests, the tests goal was to find out the reason why the clones created by my blood were nowhere close to my level .
There have been two batches cloned of my blood, those two batches were even weaker than my other siblings, who too due to their uniqueness were never discarded off, they were to understand the reason for their uniqueness but was unable to, i completed my magic theory and was going to began fusing the two system with my Black Hole superpower, making it easier to use without risking it go out of control .
On my 10th birthday i had already fused the two systems and assimilated them into my Black Hole superpower successfully, enhancing my power even further and increasing my control over my superpower magic too .
I was now able to use the two systems spells using Black Hole, due to being cut off from learning any more spells since my 8th birthday, i was forced to use what i have to improvise more magical sequences and spells, luckily the theory of magic i completely absorbed and assimilated, helped me greatly in achieving this, from this year onward i was asked to wear a mask, due to me distracting the women from doing their work, i agreed feeling their intense gazes on me through the walls .
During my 13th birthday i had an encounter while using my so-called Infinity my 5 superpower and one of my three confirmed ones by the researchers, i found that this superpower was linked to my Spatial Eyes .
The encounter was that i saw a boy my age or maybe a bit older with a stern expressionless face looking at me, he was staring directly at me and i was staring directly at him as we both wondered about the same thing at the same time .
CAN HE SEE ME ? .
