Even though I have been alive for almost two-thirds of a year, I haven't looked at myself in the mirror. This is because the abundance of mirrors in this world is quite small and I have never been tall enough to look at a window reflection nor at the only mirror located in the bathroom which I have only entered when I bathed
When I finally took a good look at myself in the mirror, I realized sothing quite shocking.
Unlike my mother who had bright cyan eyes or my grandmother who had ocean blue eyes and even my father with a pair of Aroura eyes, I had bright golden eyes. From what I know, that isn't how genetics work but I'm willing to work with it.
Anyway, this allowed to make sense of all the weird eye contact I made with everyone since I was born and also why the doctor looked at so weirdly the first ti we t.
Nonetheless, it is what it is, but the rest of my appearance seed completely normal. I had bright golden hair and looked like any other ugly baby I've ever seen.
One thing I completely overlooked was my lack of a soul fla. Since I had my soul fla ability active whenever I looked at soone, I instinctively activated it while looking at the mirror just for nothing to happen.
My mothers fla didn't show up either so I decided to try and find a way to see my soul fla within my body.
After shedding blood sweat and tears for so long, I was finally able to find a way to see my soul fla. It was the sa thod I used to sense the magical elents around which subsequently allowed to see them inside . The only difference this ti was that I had to see my soul fla, not my mana, and holy sh*It was that one hell of a difference.
First I had to find a way to feel the soul flas and the only way I would be able to do that is from what I guessed would be the heat the soul fla will likely emit.
Through this, will I not only advance in being able to sense soul flas in general but it could an I can detect anyone around no matter what? Since the flas carry the will of their host, they will probably emit heat accordingly.
If this is true, it ans that the human instincts can also perceive 'soul energy' as I like to call it, yet less efficiently than I will be able to when and if I master sensing the energy around . This is seen when your hair stands up in the face of danger, probably due to either your fright or the fact your body's sensing the dangerous aura of the other soul fla, notifying you to flee or dodge.
It is also probably why we feel like we are being watched sotis and why before making a decision, our stomach turns which we call a gut instinct.
Anyway, By Spring I had been practicing every day expecting to feel the 'soul energy' around , I felt a flicker inside and a heat enveloping . My vision turned purple and black while my body started to shiver uncontrollably in front of this fla.
My baby vessel was pale as a few mories flashed through my head before disappearing. The violet fla that had previously enveloped my body followed suit and retreated towards below my rib cage and above my navel area.
This violet fla burned violently and brightly. It was larger than my sister's fla and brighter than any fla I've seen in my two lives. It burned with the passion of the sun flickering vigorously at all the negative mories about my past life being replayed in my head before slowly fading away as though they were being swallowed whole.
Those thoughts no longer scared , all that was left was unbridled rage and a small sense of nostalgia towards those mories. The only thing that had cald down was the worried face of my sister who seed to have realized that I had turned pale and started to shiver all of a sudden.
The large violet and black fla beca smaller and smaller before stopping at a size slightly smaller than my sister's yet larger than any of my other siblings or parents.
The purple slowly seeped into the epicenter and the vibrant golden returned to most of the fla, yet it was different from everyone else's soul fla.
The epicenter was pitch black which slowly beca more and more bright golden as you got to the edges of the fla. The tips of the fla were burning brightly and vigorously with a golden hue while the center seed to be black with a tinge of purple trying to escape.
This scene didn't scare as much as it should have, I was calm and the color had already returned to my face a long ti ago. To think of it positively, I now have a cool purple fla that I vividly rember seeing when I died, and that I also achieved soul fla/ energy-sensing.
Even though my sense is limited to myself right now, it should be able to expand in the near future to allow to sense the soul energy of others, to better differentiate between the emotions and feeling people are feeling rather than guess it from the flickering of flas.
In the last few months before spring, while I was stuck at ho and everyone else seed quite busy, I had also gone through two other breakthroughs.
The most prominent ones would be the range expansion of particles I'm able to feel and resonate with, and the progress with the elental particle manipulation.
In the last week or so before spring, I had finally been able to move so particles that are in the air to concentrate into a certain spot of simple movent from one area to another. This did not an, however, that I could use any of those particles.
Moving those particles was like pushing a car while manipulating a large amount at once while trying to manipulate every particle to do a single task was akin to moving a whole plane with just one person.
Yes, eventually I'll learn how to refuel or even pilot the plane, but without a teacher or even a manual pointing in the right direction, I might as well recreate the entire stone age and try to evolve society intelligent enough to create a renaissance from scratch.
The other problem was that I had to input my will into every single particle that I wanted to move, which is the wrong way to do it from what I can see from both my sister and mother.
Normal particles are invisible so I can't really see them, but by sensing them I can control them individually. What My mother and Aroura are doing is clotting a bunch of them together, big enough for to barely see with my naked eyes, to put them into practical use before using their innate will/mana to shape them with a thought or s chant.
From just that, I can see multiple things I am doing wrong, yet I can't fix any of them since it requires to have enough personal energy/ mana to release from my body.. While the latter requires to be able to control my imbued mana/ my will into those particles and move them as a group rather than singular particles.
