Chapter 44 - Ambrose's Awakening



After we had talked for a while with Gen and ate like a \'family\', the rest finally got ready and we got Elaina\'s son and the main hall ready. Well, they did all that, I simply waited for them to finish, cursing this world for not having phones that would allow me to purge this boredom and distract myself from the things I care very little about.

After a few hours, the first set of guests started to surge through the gates and main entrance, followed by their heirs, children and personal butler which usually stayed near the entrance. I went to the hall first before seeing everyone else entering the hall and greeting Ambrose and his mother on the way. They would wish him good luck while thanking Elaina for inviting them to the party.

Elaina seemed to be quite high in the social status if that was not evident enough by just taking a glance at the place she resides in, but she also seemed to be quite the a*shole. I always knew she was an a*shole, yet today she had hit a whole new level. She was introducing parents who had son\'s to me, as if I was her own daughter.

LET ME LIVE WOMEN! LET ME LIVE FREELY! IM 5 FOR F*CK\'S SAKES! Wait... You know what, if she is willing to use the people against me, I will do the same.

I started to walk up to Elaina before standing 1 meter away from her. She had a slightly proud grin which I couldn\'t tell if it was from her son standing next to her or if it was because she thought she had bested me. Nevertheless, I had taken it as a personal attack making me gesture for her to come closer so I can whisper something in her ear.

The moment she was close enough for her to hear my whisper without anyone else being able to eavesdrop, I told her with my most polite voice "If you don\'t stop what you are doing, don\'t blame me for what is about to happen, You love your son, right? So you wouldn\'t do anything to embarrass him on his big day, right?"

Elaina furrowed her brows at those words while looking at me intently. I simply smiled dryly before saying "Stop trying to \'help\'. I don\'t remember asking for it" in a voice which was clear to her yet completely overlapped by the sounds of the background to others.

Before she could say anything however, I heard a familiar voice from my right side, which was also where the main entrance of the mansion was located.

"PANY! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!" Said Aroura while picking me up after I had used gravity field at the correct time to make it seem like I did not weight a my original size of over 200kg. She picked me up and started to kiss me all over while checking if I am healthy and okay.

My father decided to do the same and my mom simply hugged me for an amount of time that made it become awkward, When we were finally done with the hugging and kissing I reassured them that I was fine yet I didn\'t change my natural attitude which did not seem to upset them.

After the most important guests arrived, Elaina and her son walked towards us before hugging every family member in my family and exchanging pleasantries. Gen and Aroura started to talk about me but I didn\'t pay too much attention to it until Gen said "You know your sister is quite the handful." with a chuckle.

"What do you mean?" Asked Aroura while glaring at me

"Don\'t worry too much about it. I think the new habitat must have took a toll on her mental state. Mostly she has been really nice to me" Gen replied while putting emphasis on the word \'me\'

"Mhm!" Aroura snarled while glaring at me more intensely than before

Oh f*ck\'s sakes. I don\'t deserve all this.

I gave Aroura a warm smile as if I haven\'t heard what Gen had just said about me which made Aroura stop glaring at me. We finally went on with the party and sat down at the table nearest to the front of the hall, where the Starnight\'s would sit.

I put my elbow on the table while allowing the full weight of my head to rest on my hand. Of course I was using gravity field so I wouldn\'t break everything I touch, yet it was more of reflex now rather than a thought.

I looked towards the hall\'s doors and watched the sheer amount of people flooding through them. Within them was L- The annoying women from before who is also and the son of the boy who tried to forcefully take my sister\'s hand. For a second, my eyes lingered on her soul flame which was full of vigour and light.

I unconsciously started to drool as I looked at her soul flame and thinking back to all the soul flames that I had eaten before. They were all amazing but none of them looked as good as hers. It took me all my willpower to look away from her soul flame, and even more will power to stop thinking about the pleasure that would overtake me the moment I take in a single speck of her soul flame.

After around 30 minutes of waiting for something, a man robed in white that looked like he might be a priest walked to the small stage where Elaina\'s son stood idly. Elaina\'s husband then clapped his mana infused hands making everyone zip their mouths and achieving total silence.

The silence did not last long, as the sounds of fidgeting echoed throughout the entire hall as everyone looked towards the stage.

"Today is a very important day for our family, more more importantly, to my son, Ambrose!" Everyone started to clap while I just stared since I didn\'t have the energy to actually take my head of my hand.

"Today, Ambrose will awaken and we would like to share his awakening with all of you while being able to celebrate it with those we love." Elaina\'s husband said while looking at us then towards the women who\'s name begins with the letter L

"Priest Johnson will be helping him awaken today and will also show us his potential as a mage." Elaina chimed in before walking off the stage with her husband and leaving the priest and her son on the stage.

"Kneel down my boy" Said the priest with a soothing voice. The boy looked at his parents which nodded at him, before kneeling down in front of the priest. The priest then touched the center of the boy\'s forehead with his index finger before chanting a few words. A white milky aura surrounded them before glowing brightly, illuminating the entire hall.

I widened my eyes while everyone squinted.

Is that... White magic?

I watched as the white energy started to seep into the the boy before it exploded outwards with a vibrant emerald colour, blinding almost everyone in the hall in a single second. When everyone was able to regain their vision, me included, we all looked at the glistening emerald aura that was around 5 inches thick.

It moved around his body like a storm, but that wasn\'t the main reason I was surprised to see it. From what I could see, he had a affinity to air magic which not only made his eyes emerald green, but also made him develop a mana heart.

Wait... A mana heart?

I looked at the right side of my sister\'s chest which allowed me to see something inside it. It was a mixture of both green and ocean blue that both ravaged inside a small area of her body. It was a mana heart!

Wait... How could I be so blind? I knew I had one and I knew that the beasts had one as well as my tutor. Wait, is it harder to sense human\'s mana hearts? Wait what is that?

I looked at the boy again before focusing around his mana heart. There were very small veins and arteries that would be closer to being capillaries due to there small size. I couldn\'t actually feel them nor see them, but due to the fact that the boy had just awakened, it was easier to see since they had just started forming. The more they form, the smaller the aura around the boy became.

Wait... I remember now! When I was using white magic I was able to see my illuminated mana veins clearly. They are surely bigger than his, but that raises the question. Doesn\'t White magic come from the soul flame?

While I was pondering the revelation, everyone in the hall had erupted into a fit of applauses while cheering including my own family members. Elaina was on the floor crying with joy while her husband was trying to keep her standing.

Wait... Was that good? I mean, yet he has an affinity, but that isn\'t that special is it? I mean, I don\'t actually have an affinity but everyone I know except Throid and Alan have one... Maybe it is rare. huh...?

-"wow"-

-"He really was a prodigy"-

-"To think he would awaken with a strong affinity right off the bat"-

-"Lucky bastard, We have to work our a*ses off every day for multiple years just to have that kind of affinity, and this kid got it right away?"-

Oh... it\'s starting to make sense now. His mana heart is at least double the size of mine, if not triple, yet he had just awakened his magical affinity. I wonder if mine will be boosted in size when I awaken or have I already awakened?

While some kids looked at the Amber? in admiration, others looked green with envy and others even angry that it wasn\'t them who had awakened such a powerful affinity.

All affinities were the same, the only difference in power was the power within such affinity. To me, it is the size of their mana heart that tells me their how powerful their attacks may be if they were to attack me. Of course, the strength of an attack will be split between simple, basic and advanced, yet someone with a large mana heart and large veins may as well have the strength of an average advanced spell within his/her basic spell, if not even simple spell.

Ambero? could be seen jumping up and down with joy as his final specks of aura had been absorbed into his body. The priest congratulated him before leaving as swiftly and quietly as he could.

The moment the priest left, Ambo? could be seen jumping down from the stage o his parents to hug them for as long as he could. Everyone from Gen to Aroura were happy for him, as they all walked towards the family while leaving me behind to sit in my own thoughts. When I realised this, I understood it would be extremely rude for me not to congratulate him too. I didn\'t care what others though about me, but I cared what others thought about my parents and I wouldn\'t want a repeat of what happened the last time I embarrassed my mother in front of someone higher class.

When my family reached the Starnight\'s, They all participated in a group hug which I chose not to be a part of by standing as far as possible without seeming rude. When they finally got done with their hugging, I heard a familiar voice which made me want to go back to sitting on my table immediately.

"Who would have thought you would be so talented~" A women said while hugging the small Ambo.

"Aunt Laura! You came!" Ambo said while smiling widely.

"Of course I came. Why would I miss my own nephews awakening?" The women said while giving a smug grin.

"James! Your here too?!" Abo said while looking looking behind the women and seeing a man in his early 20s. The man nodded with a smile before saying "of course" with a confident voice.

"Oh hey Laura... Sorry about last time" my mother said with an ashamed look on her face.

"no no, it was my fault, please forgive me!" replied Laura with fake shame on her face.

Why is my mother apologizing to that b*tch? She walked into our house and started complain yet she has the balls to face us now? If there are gods out there, please help me refrain myself from slaughtering this b*tch and her entire lineage!

"H-hey Pandora, s-shouldn\'t you be c-congratulating me, giving me a gift or something?" asked Ab- whatever his name is. His voice wasn\'t very convincing which usually meant that he was being put up to this by his parents.

"Yes, how about a hug or maybe a kiss on the cheek? I\'m sure you are very happy for my son, right?" Elaina said with a wink.

What the f*ck? Stop trying to secure an heir to your son so early! Do you have no shame!?

My parents and Aroura stared at me with an unreadable expression while Lauro glared daggers at me, as if I was stealing something that was hers. Gen however, just started to chuckle right next me before whispering in my ear "Please refrain from killing them after this" with another chuckle leaving her mouth.

I looked at Elaina with a smile before walking up to the boy and grabbing his hand to shake it. I could physically feel him flinching at my touch while I could also feel the furious glares of both parents and girls who were just a little older than my vessel.

I held his hand between mine and raised them to chest level before saying "congratulations Am- Amber? Sorry, what\'s your name again? Well, that doesn\'t matter right now, right?". I gave him a frim hug before letting go and walking away with smile on my face. Gen started to laugh her ass off to the point she needed Aroura to hold her up, while everyone just looked at me with a comprehensive look.

"W-w-WAIT! Y-you d-don\'t know my n-name? Even though you lived in our house for the last 7 days? You really don\'t?!" Exclaimed the boy.

"Yeah... Sorry, I\'m a little bad with names haha" I replied while giving him the most innocent smile I could give before looking at Elaina with a look that said \'Two can play that game\'.

My parents then slapped their foreheads a few seconds after the whole thing happened while shaking their heads in disappointment.

"That was hilarious! Just don\'t do that again or aunt Laura might kill you with her glares" Gen told me while I was walking back to my families table. She had decided to join me and Aroura since she didn\'t have many friends we weren\'t busy at the time of her brother\'s awakening.

"You know, I wasn\'t lying when I said I don\'t remember his name." I told Gen which made her choke on her laughter

"Seriously?"

"Seriously."

Aroura however, couldn\'t help but slap her own forehead again, making both of us look back at her.
