The Birth of a True Hero
Episode 8 Try

Ahead of the next 2 years, my splinting ability is already quite skilled. I tirelessly try every day something new that my man can do.

Not only in controlling my mana, but I was already able to create a dagger from which I was dense. Even though ordinary things are impossible to make solid objects, but not with my mana.

Even advanced magic like the earth element could only control the already existing land and could not make its magic into a solid element like the ground.

While my mana is more flexible in its use, such as being able to make anti-magic shields that neutralize all types of magic that hit or are in the magic circle that I make.

I can't wait to show this development to my uncle who's coming home from the academy tomorrow. He was not allowed to leave for 2 full years because he took a sudden leave of absence for 1 month first when I first went to my grandfather's residence.

The abilities I honed and created myself with knowledge from my previous world.

Anti magic area \=> Field area covered which makes all kinds of magic neutralized again because the mana element will devour the lighter mana.

Mana Shield \=> Anti-magic shield that can withstand 100% medium to low scale magic.

Instant Teleport \=> Move to the place where I throw my dagger and mana, or pull the dagger back into my hand.

Mana Predator \=> A skill that devours mana on a person's body but this can cause turmoil in my body if the mana does not match mine. So this skill is the most risky skill and the least I use.

Well even though I still don't have a wide area attack but I've been lucky to learn this skill in a few months and be able to develop it to a level that makes me quite satisfied.

These are all forms of my gratitude because what others consider useless, I can develop into a deadly weapon that only belongs to me.

I will make those who dare to humble and insult me lick their own spit and beg for help.

For the honor of my mother, for the uncle who did not give up on me and for the people who still love me. Even if I have to vomit blood, or have my bones broken, I will continue to practice to silence those who dare to humble me.

A few moments later the horse-drawn carriage that brought my uncle came. He came in and was greeted by my grandparents.

They also told me about the events I was rumored to be the cause of the destruction of the count's daughter's household and rumors about me that were born from my mother's affair with ordinary people.

The rumors have been a hot topic of conversation lately.

Even to the territory of the Baron, the Viscount, the Count, and the Duke were not separated from the rumors. Because it is very rare there is an incident of a nobleman who has no mana.

"What do you mean, there are people who talk about stupid things like that. Then why do you just calm down with those stupid rumors?" ask my uncle who was surprised about the news.

"Look, even I know it could ruin our family's good name, I've also been looking into who caused the rumors and trying to straighten them out"

"But rumors are still rumors, nobles are never free from things like that. Besides Julia and Rui already do not care about it all. "

"Rui, dimna him?" ask uncle.

"Haaaaah. I was really worried about the child's condition, he forced himself too much into training" complained my grandfather who frowned.

My uncle rushed to the training area to meet me, arriving there he was very surprised when he saw the magic dagger that I was currently holding.

"Ru..Rui, what's in your hands?"

"Oh uncle, welcome back. When's uncle arriving?"

"Yes and it doesn't matter. Now explain to me what's in your hand?" said my uncle who noticed the dagger in my hand.

"Ahh this?" I said lift my dagger.

"This is a magic dagger, this is the result of training in condensing my mana."

"Because my mana is elastic and with continuous practice, I am finally able to shape it up to this" said Rui.

"Be_so apparently" said my uncle.

"I don't understand" he murmured inwardly.

"Yes this is the form I use well right?" I said with a smile.

"Ahh yes, it's a beautiful dagger, but what is the difference with an ordinary dagger" asked my uncle curiously.

I started to make daggers hover around me After I felt enough, I immediately slid them to each side of the training field.

"Well, you better not blink" I asked the uncle.

I instantly darted all over where I stuck my dagger and slashed at the straw doll that was on the line I was passing through. It made my hand a little cramped and trembling because it was not too able to master it.

But my uncle, who saw the ability, just remained silent, did not believe what he was witnessing.

Then the straw doll that was my target was destroyed instantly. It made him even more shocked when he saw the skill I was practicing.

"So that, what?" he murmured in the heart.

"I could feel the trembling legs seeing that ability. Did I just help Rui awaken a forbidden power that is so terrifying to witches?" he murmured in a heart that was still in shock.

Still in a state of confusion and feeling something was wrong with his eyes, I wanted to show my next skill.

"Ahh uncle. Are you all right?"

"You look a little pale?"

my uncle was a little surprised by my question and made his mind instantly crumble.

"Ah, no, no. I'm it's okay. I just felt 'wow' look at your current ability" said my uncle who tried to look calm, but I could clearly see the sweat running down his face.

"Thank God if uncle's okay. Then, I will show my next ability" I said.

"Ehhhh... Still, is there more?" my uncle was surprised.

"But, this can be practiced only if the uncle wants to help."

"Ah yes-yes well, whatever your wishes, say" said my uncle who was tired from his surprise.

"Then attack me with your strongest magic" I asked.

"Eh, I don't understand what you mean" replied my uncle.

"Already, just do it and believe me" I said with confidence.

It made my uncle sure of my request.

"Alright, Alright. It's up to you, but don't blame me if you get hurt, you know what your mother would do to me if you got hurt because of me.

"Hahaha yes, so please hurry"

After that uncle attacked me with Fire Ball, although I knew he did not attack me with his strongest magic but I was glad he complied with my request.

I condensed mana and made mana shield before the fireball hit my body. The mana shield directly devoured the magic that was pointing at my body and made my uncle's magic attack disappear.

Again the uncle was astonished by this until he collapsed because his energy seemed to disappear.

"Haaaah.it's really not good for the heart" my uncle lamented.

"But I'm really proud of you" said the uncle stroking my head.

Then he suddenly woke up and shouted.

"Hahahah, who now would dare to say you're a disgrace of a useless family?"

"Show me the person and show them your ability to shame them for the rest of their lives. Hahahaha" shouted my uncle who looked very happy.

"Uncle calm down, this will be a secret between us" said I who was a little panicked by the commotion made my uncle.

"Why should it be kept secret? " ask my uncle confused.

"Because, if I am to be considered a noble and if they only respect me for my strength, then I will show them my abilities when I become the strongest person on the continent. I will make those who used to humiliate me shame their whole lives and then I will make anyone who dares to humble me submit to me" I said with earnestness.

"Rui, are your dreams not of heights" asked my uncle in doubt.

"Did uncle hesitate after seeing my ability?" askaku.

"Well, if it were you, you would. Because you are the son of Julia and the niece of my pride" said my uncle, who lifted my body into the air.

"Hahahaha, let's see what the faces of those fools who insulted you look like" my uncle said, raising me in the air.

"That's my goal" I said as I laughed wickedly like my uncle.

Mother and grandfather who heard our laughter were confused, they immediately came to see what we were doing. But the two of them smiled at the silly behavior of the two of us.
