Looking at the spears moving towards with snail like speeds, I couldn't help but marvel at how much better it was to see through my own eyes. While looking towards the spears, I could now see the mana within the spear, the mana channels within the armour and sword of the boy, and the mana veins and arteries within his body, not to ntion his mana heart too.
They all had a kind of murky brownish colour, representing his affinity to the earth elent. I could even see his soul to a much higher degree to even before I had awakened my affinity to divine mana, which made wonder what kind of overpowered ability did I have before which would have caused all those headaches and pain.
Watching as the spears grew closer very slowly, I supressed my Divine calculation and thought acceleration to a point where everything would return to half of the normal speed. Flicking my wrist to the right, I watched as multiple fire orbs were constructed out of nowhere in a split second and shot right through the spear in an instant. This not only surprised the boy and the adults coming to save from the spears, but it even surprised as I had no idea that my eyes could have affected my casting speed and my comprehension of an elent.
I found it much easier to cast spells now than I did before, and this was only the start. Looking at the eyes of the boy, I activated the 'skill' "eyes of vanity". While nothing seed to happen to , to him, a indescribable amount of fear surged out of the deepest parts of his soul. He felt as if there were hands choking him as they wrapped around his neck. Multiple hands would grab his legs and ankles, while more and more hands would appear and grab a part of his body, going all the way from his ankles all the way up to his shoulders.
The indescribable fear only increased as it felt like there was nowhere to run, as these hands were coming from his shadow itself. Realising there was no way to escape, a surge of desperation hit the boy like a truck, but then, everything disappeared as the real world appeared in front of him like a flash of light.
He had found himself on the ground, pale as a ghost, sweating and panting as if he had been suffocated for several minutes.
'Maybe I overdone it' I thought to myself while looing at the traumatized child on the floor. The boy was only 10 years old after all. Even though he might act mature, he was still quite young for his age, and compared to Ambrose and the other idiot I had fought, I didn't really want to hurt this kid but rather make friends with him. He was bound to beco strong in the future therefore it wouldn't hurt to have connections, while it was also quite nice to be around soone normal and respectful for once.
I hadn't really made friends in my previous life, and in this life all the friends I've made were either not human or way too old for it to not look creepy. I honestly didn't like the party itself as I had to stand in front of so many people and speak. Yes, I might have though of them as no more than dogs so I didn't really care, but now that I was bound to make so friends, I kind of felt the awkwardness.
However, now looking at the state of the 'friend' I wanted to make, I wondered if he was to even want be my friend after the display I just showed.
Looking at him for a bit, I decided to use one of the 'skills' I had gotten due to the evolution on my eyes, and tat skills was Analysis. It seed to use my mana eyes, soul eyes, divine calculation, thought acceleration of my affinity to pride to create a whole new skill which allows to find out about soone or sothing I look at. I already knew exactly how to activate it, as if I had done it all my life.

'Damn... Even with this skill I don't get people's nas!? Maybe it's because the skill is still weak? Maybe I'll get to see more things if it improves too.'
Looking at the distraught boy on the floor, I went next to him to comfort him just to be stopped by three of the adults with their swords drawn in front to stop from advancing.
Making eye contact with one of the n, he looked deep within my eyes which made him feel a shiver down his spine while also feeling a small amount of fear, however, this was nothing like the fear they used to feel when they looked into my eyes before the evolution.
I activated the analysis skill, however, sothing I did not realize since I did not have a mirror was what it looked like to other people when I activated the skill. While the golden Iris's looked like a golden cosmos, my pupils that had no turned white fractures apart and turned into a 3d version of the star of David, constantly rotating and halting, before rotating in another direction. While my pupils had beco permanently white, my Iris still carried the golden cosmos feel as they felt like they were made out of millions of fine threats that never touches, yet constructed sothing so magnificent.
Looking into the eyes alone made the man go into a daze for a second before snapping out of it, before looking back at the eyes just to a see a rotating 3 dinsional star of David

Looking at the analysis, I deactivated the skill and looked back the boy who now had his status as "ntally recovering: Recovery ti estimated as 2 days."
'At least it isn't permanent' I thought with a sigh' before deciding to walk away. It was probably for the best I do so.
Looking towards my family, I saw most of the people who t my eyes flinch and subconsciously step back.
'If there was only a way to be stealthy. Now not only does my aura send intimidation signals to everyone, but eye contact makes them flinch to this degree' I chuckles at my own misery as I couldn't help but wonder how the hell I am going to live in the future if I don't find a way to be stealthy. Maybe I could change my intimidating aura into sothing like a stealthy cloak that surrounds and stops anyone from being able to feel my presence.
Shutting my eyes so I don't scare everyone by accident this ti, I walked toward my parents while I shed a tear inwardly after losing my advanced vision that showed everything. Even though it was for a short ti, it felt like losing a finger and having to deal with it by using 4 fingers instead of 5.
Going back to the main hall, we spent the rest of the evening either eating cake or spending ti with the won who I had talked to earlier. I had found out her na and engraved it deep into my brain so I don't forget it. Her na was apparently Yerone Flaxburg. She kept thanking for saving her earlier even though I told her it was fine. While her continues thanking of had gotten so of her friend's attention, they did not ask as if they knew it was sothing they shouldn't ask about.
I did not delve deeper nor did I expose anything about what she was thanking for, just to make sure the others and her friends don't learn from what had happened nor allow the to connect the dots. You cannot connect the dots if there are no dots.
I spent most of the ti just eating a lot of cake. Many of the guests and people in my family looked ta in reverence looking at how many cakes I could eat in a single sitting. This was however, just due to the fact that I had just went through an evolution of my eyes while I had used quite a bit of mana in the fight. Even thought it was nowhere near the amount the boy had used, it was quite high considering my mana is divine energy, sothing around 5 tis more powerful than normal mana.
One cast of 'the eyes of vanity' had taken half of my mana in an instant, while analysis would take 1% of my mana per cast. Of course, this might decrease in the future, however, at this point, the analysis skill is can only be used a 100 tis in a row. Sadly, my mana regeneration was no where as fast as my bodily regeneration, as my bodily regeneration uses a small amount of the nutrients i have while using so of the mana and elental particles in my body to finally create such a monstrous regeneration.
Using that regeneration makes really hungry though, and so does using mana in general, but regeneration makes the hungriest.
After a few more hours, a series of and my family apologizing to the boy I had sparred with and his family, and a few cakes later, we finally took a carriage ho. No one was able to beat which made my mother pout for the whole journey ho. She had hoped she would get a son in law today, however all she had gotten was a bunch of complaints about .
Finally getting back ho, the constant speaking to random people was quite exhausting, therefore the mont my head had touched the pillow, my consciousness had fluttered away.
