[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 rely 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 so days, they did felt so changes. Especially in their senses, physical strength, and magic power.
I had been checking each one status constantly to see if they could develop so talent or sothing specific that others didn't usually have. And indeed, so had begun to develop talents.
After I was introduced to their nas and had made a ntal list of their appearance, nas, 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 , 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.
anwhile, Benladann did reach maturity naturally, but after the series of events with her Mold, she stayed as a monster for years until I helped her.
However, these kids, aside from Suu, the 1-year-old baby, had their Mana Cores forcefully awakened by Draugann because she was desperate for them to have so thod of self-defense in the worst-case scenario… but well, even then, it is not like they can do much magic to begin with.
Or that was before the week that passed by!
I have to admit, the first two days were painful, the kids were not learning anything, and so were not willing to train yet, such as Hansel, the fatty 7-year-old by with Earth Magic Affinity… but I ended convincing him by bribing him with food. He was a food fan and wanted to taste all kinds of new food all the ti, but I put him into a strong physical exercise so he wouldn't remain fat, as it could be detrintal in such a world where he might need to run for his life one of these days.
Well, in one week, not many physical changes can happen… well, not really, he actually decreased his weight a lot, so perhaps naming him fatty won't be nice now… Anyways, as I said previously, the first two days were painful.
But on the third day, things started to change, the kids slowly beca more willing as we took care of them, on the fourth day they were finally conjuring new spells, as we taught them with Benladann and Draugann how to properly visualize spells and more. I think they were becoming attached to us and started to see us as their parental figures… even the most silent of the boys, Ellergest, the oldest male at 8 years of age ended trusting us so more.
And well, I guess no one can resist the cute Benladann-chan, she's way too adorable and motherly, so she smothered the hearts of everyone- Wait.
I just realized this after 7 days, but didn't her Charm helped us? It seems that that was it! Well, not that much… I would say fifty-fifty. Her Charm must have made her more trustworthy to their eyes, but our actions still influenced the kids trusting us to begin with.
Anyways, it is not as if she brainwashed them, her Charm is not like those weird Charm powers from gas or ani where a Succubus can sohow charm a person into a mindless zombie desperate for their pussy, no, Benladann's Charm is slow and it makes her more "trustworthy", ins so way, her words are also more tender to their ears. However, it is not without her true emotions that it shines. If she didn't intend to actually help and care for them, her Charm would fail, it intensifies her true emotions, so if she is not truly willing to make the kids feel comfortable and trust us, it won't work.
I also noticed sothing else… her charm seems to affect . No, wait, not as it affects directly, but as I am always with her, it is as if her semi-transparent Charm Aura coats my own body too, and because I am immune, I don't end up absorbing it and it sticks to like a perfu, making more trustworthy the more my true feelings of helping them showed up.
So in the end, it made things slightly easier, but it was not sothing like brainwashing. But I suppose that if Benladann manages to sohow manipulate this semi-transparent pink aura, she could use it more intensively by spending mana and stuff, and could potentially beco a weapon too… it all depends on her.
Anyways, after all these days, the kids opened up so more, and they were finally able to develop their magic so more, and if we coupled it with the Group Cultivation… well, they were bound to learn a bit and beco more useful.
