11 Chapter 9 Changes... (1/2)

The relationship dynamic between Takemi and Musashi had definitely changed the next day. Musashi, who was always adamant not to help cook or wash dishes stood side by side with her Master, drying the dishes that Takemi washed.

When sparring, Musashi seemed to get more passionate when their swords collided and more times than not ended up using too much strength and broke several wooden swords.

She knew that her blade was going dull and Takemi was perfectly fine with only doing katas and strength training to hone his own swordsmanship.

They spent more time down in that underground basement more than they spent in the living room eating or even in their own rooms sleeping.

While Musashi was honing her concept of ”Zero”, Takemi looked at the Mission rewards for the first time.

Accepting the rewards Takemi felt his status change slightly.

Name: Mikazuchi Takemi

Age: 14

Magic Circuits: 0

Element: Space

Origin: Truth

Magecraft: 0

Skills: 3

Servants: 1

Items: 0

TMP: 105,500

'Hmm? My Skills have increased? And that TMP! Holy crap!', thought Takemi.

”Ding! [System] suggests purchasing Magic Circuits. When purchasing Magic Circuits the quality of the Magic Circuit is random but lower quality Magic Circuits can be upgraded with TMP”.

Takemi nodded at the [System's] explanation. He had investigated the Store almost everyday and noticed that the first purchase of Magic Circuits is 100 TMP. The second is 200 TMP. The third is 300 TMP. THe fourth is 400 TMP. THe fifth is 500 TMP.

Each purchase of a new Magic circuit increased by increments of 100 TMP.

And for future reference, a high Quality Saber Servant like Miyamoto Musashi cost 750,000 TMP. If her Mana stat was any higher she would cost more than 1,000,000 TMP.

”[System]! Purchase twenty Magic Circuits for 21,000 TMP”.

”Ding! User has exchanged 21,000 TMP for twenty Magic Circuits. Please wait a few seconds for the changes to happen. It is suggested the User sits down for the process”.

Takemi sat down, closed his eyes and felt something 'growing' inside of him, Perhaps growing wasn't the right word for it. 'Connecting?' Branching out?'. Whatever it was, he could feel his soul adjusting to the new Magic Circuits and felt a small stream of power flow through each of them.

When Takemi reopened his eyes he saw a plethora of color and light that he didn't notice before, even with the Mystic Eyes of Empyrean. They were beautiful. Shades of blue, green and yellow made up most of the waves of lines of color, however every once in a while a red or purple entered his line of sight.

”[System]? What are they? Why am I seeing them?”.

”Ding! It is the mixture of ambient mana and what Magicians of this world call psions and pushions. Mana is a type of magical energy which is produced by the world, the very earth beneath your feet and the very grass you stand upon. It is the life force of the planet, much like od is the life force of all other living things.

Psions on the other hand, are particles that have no physical shape or form and is the fuel Magicians use to power their spells. Magicians possess a ”Magic Calculation Area” within their subconscious that automatically reads the contents of a spell and inputs the appropriate amount of psions in to activate said spell. Pushions are similar to psions, however are mainly used by those who practice Ancient Magic, like Kokonoe Yakumo for example”.

Nodding at the [System's] explanation Takemi then asked, ”[System], would it be possible for me to use the Magic of this world?”.

He was 14 right now an in a little over 2 years he would attend a National Magic High School. Takemi had already planned to enter First High School, which was the most rigorous and strict one of them all.

If he couldn't use this worlds Magic, how would he even get in to First High let alone integrate himself into canon.
