Chapter 5: Magic Lessons


    I''m now around 6 years old. Though I still am a toddler by elven standards. One Elven year turned out to be 4 years from my previous life. So it was basically more consistent as there would be no leap years every four years, and we have such long lives anyways. But we adopted the human standard so trade would be more consistent and easily. So by human standards I would be 6 years old by now.


    Now that I could walk on my own, I''ve been leaving the house more often. I remember when Mom first took me out to the vige, I really couldn''t believe the way our vige looked. Rather than a vige it looked like a massive hideout. We were atop massive trees, with rope bridges connecting houses together. Together this rope bridges make an interconnected system, forming our little elven ''vige''. If I were to make aparison, it would be like the Fortree City in Pokemon. Our house was at the outskirts of the ''vige'', so we were pretty secluded.


    This time however I left with my elder sister Celine, or rather we sneaked out. We descended the trees and then went on to a secluded ce. The reason of course, I used my cuteness and begged Celine to help me teach magic.


    It feels weird to say this without sounding narcissistic but I really am pretty cute. I got Mother''s good genes and I assume our father had ck hair. Since unlike Celine and Mom''s tinum silver, mine is direct contrast with it''s raven ck. Combined with Mom''s amethyst eyes, all I can say is my looks are a big, big upgrade from my previous life''s.


    Though right now, I look more like a girl because of my shoulder-length hair, though I tied it in a loose ponytail.


    Sister herself is also pretty. Elven gics man, how unfair. She too had the tinum blonde hair but she must have inherited her ck eyes from father. Hmm, So my dad here had ck hair and ck eyes huh? And since we are pure elves then he must be one as well. She''s taller than me though not by much. She should be 13 in human years but she still isn''t undergoing puberty from what I can see. I really don''t know anything about elven biology.


    Me and sis were always close, so when I used my tears to beg her, she couldn''t resist me. Though she told me I must keep it a secret from Mom.


    "Riel, so what do you want to learn first?" asked my sister.


    I knew about the four elements of magic, Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind. So i knew what she meant.


    "How about water? I want to help on cleaning our house!" I said, as I though water would be the most useful. Well it seems like she didn''t expect that answer as she was stunned for a second, before looking at me with gentle eyes.


    "Just how cute can you get, Riel! Oh wait, how could I forget. Before learning any elements you must learn about mana or we won''t be getting anywhere"


    "Mana?" I tilted my head towards a familiar word. It usually was used in video game as like the resource for using spells and skills, so I had a pretty rough idea of what it could do.


    "Mana is like the... uhhhhhh.... it''s like.... Oh! it''s like wood, think of it like that. It''s like a resource, that you can change depending on your will, it could be an arrow, a bow, or a table depending on the crafter''s wishes."


    That seemed like a bad analogy, I thought to myself. But I already have a rough idea of what mana is, so I didn''t really need that.


    "Mom told me it could be found anywhere, as it is present all around the world. But thankfully we''re high elves, so we are supposed to be innately good at sensing mana? or something...." She was losing her confidence as her exnation became longer.


    But that was a shocker, I knew we were elves, but ''high'' elves? I''ve read some novels and they were usually like an even more refined elf? I still don''t know what separates a high elf from a normal elf. But that exins the secludedmunity, I guess. I always thought it was weird how it seemed like it was only us in this forest, but now I have my answer I guess.


    Wait, wouldn''t that mean I would grow at an even slower rate now? High elves are like the pure-blooded ones with a longer lifespan right?


    "When controlling mana, you would feel something flowing out of your body and before changing it''s form with a spell. Though you can also use raw mana as a weapon, it''s not that good really. Mana Wave!" my sister chanted, when a white orb appeared and flew in a direction before exploding. It dealt considerable damage, but none to jaw dropping.


    "How do you control mana?" I asked


    "eh? uhhhh... it''s like.. a ticklish feeling in my stomach? You just think of it and it would follow, atleast that''s what I did." Celine said while scratching her head. That exnation would have thrown most people off, as expected of a genius I guess. She couldn''t exin, something that she just does naturally.


    "You make it sound easy, so howe Mom didn''t want to teach me Magic if it was so simple?" I asked another question. It was then that she seemed to have remembered something as her eyes opened wide.


    "I remember!" She then ran to my back "I was supposed to help you first, if you feel something moving in your body then don''t resist it. Mom doesn''t know it but I can already do this." She said as she applied some force on my back and closed her eyes.


    It was then that I felt something move in my body, a ticklish feeling in my stomach. Oh just like riding a bicycle, once you know how it''s done it suddenly bes easy.


    "Mom said only us high elves can move mana in someone''s body. It seems we really have a natural affinity with mana, and because of that we can teach each other about magic much earlier because we can help them understand the concept of mana firsthand."


    I marveled at the information and the perks I have just by being born a high elf. Well to them this much is natural but as a former human I know the benefits of having an advantage early on in life.


    "Let''s go back Mom could get suspicious. You can practice by yourself now, though Mom mustn''t know. "


    "Thank you so much, big sis! I really mean it!" I said as I hugged my sister, she too returned the hug. However my hands moved downwards until I was grabbing her butt, she didn''t know what I was doing so she had no particr reactions to it. For her it''s just a more special hug from her little brother. Then I slowly kneaded and spread her ass cheeks before pecking her on the lips, then we separated.


    This already happened before, I ''said'' that I ''saw'' someone kissing on the lips, So of course the child me ''innocently'' asked what they were doing and Mom was embarrassed said it was something people who love each other deeply do. Or atleast that''s what she told the two of us.


    So not long after I had my sister kiss me as a sign of ''love''. And we''ve been doing it since, of course I never do it in front of Mom, or she might really exin what a kiss is supposed to be.


    I first returned home, then after about half an hour Celine came back as well, to avoid suspicion
