Chapter 137: Day 90 (1/2)

[Day 90]

Day 90!

Last week we did a lot of stuff… Well, mostly taking care of the kids and slowly letting them open up to us. It wasn't easy, but it wasn't particularly hard either, we had to merely be patient.

As the last survivors of Benladann's tribe, we had to take well care of them, especially because in the future they might one day make up a new tribe, so we had to teach them well and also make them grow stronger.

After they drank my blood they grew stronger, a bit. Well, it wasn't obvious at first, but after some days, they did felt some changes. Especially in their senses, physical strength, and magic power.

I had been checking each one status constantly to see if they could develop some talent or something specific that others didn't usually have. And indeed, some had begun to develop talents.

After I was introduced to their names and had made a mental list of their appearance, names, and their affinities, we had begun doing magic practice! It was a bit terrible, the kids were very bad at using magic.

Draugann said that it was because most were too young to use magic yet.

You see, on non-monsters, people tend to mature their Mana Cores as they grow, usually, monsters are born with fully functional and maturated Mana Cores, like me, but kids from these intelligent races grow their Mana Cores over the years as they mature.

Due to this, those that are too young have a very small Mana Core, with barely many Mana on it and even less the potential to use any magic aside from a tiny spark of fire or a small shadow that disappears after a second of being cast…

Usually, Draugann said that kids can begin cultivating their Mana Cores and bodies at the age of 13, where their Mana Cores would usually fully mature, and where most kids hit puberty as well, so their bodies have the potential to develop very fast if they put a lot of physical training into their routine.

Benladann and I skipped over that part for our different motives. I was born a monster and could evolve so I developed into maturity incredibly quickly.
