《"I Am The Hero"》Chapter 4
Advertisement
A few years has passed and now I am ten years old.
A lot happened this past few years I got a little sister; she has the same amber eyes and brown hair as father and now she is one years old she was given the name Gabriella. Who would have thought my parents were doing the deed behind my back, or they been doing it without me even realizing like the room where they go out wet (I don’t know if it’s sweat or something else…), I saw when I was young. well that’s all in the past now.
In those past years I was physically trained by father; he prefers more physical than magic and I was also taking care of my little sister whenever mother’s away, because of that I can’t focus on magic abilities.
Those exercise my father made me do were tough I thought I was going to die once more and whenever I finished, I rest for so long that few days will pass, because of that my father made it even more harder than before.
Finally, my body have the bare minimum to get my father approval to pause the exercise, so that means I can rest for a little while, after a few more days I will be brought back to those hellish training ground…. And yes, my father actually made a training ground right outside the front house.
Now that I mention it, I can hear a loud noise coming from the training ground so I peek through the window to see what’s going on.
My whole body froze in terror at the sight of my father upgrading the training ground to become hell itself, I might actually die at this rate.
I need to learn magic if I ever want to use it, because at this rate all I’ll be doing is physical exercise… and dying.
Now that my mother is here to take care of my little sister, I can now have some free time.
My plan is to go on an isolated place like the forest beyond our backyard to practice magic.
Now’s the time when everyone is busy my mother taking care of my little sister and father upgrading the training grounds.
I rush out the backyard going unnoticed and towards the forest with a sword in hand. For safety of course, who knows maybe a beast lives in a forest.

I am finally at the forest it has a lot of huge trees, whenever I look at there is a tree. Trees are everywhere even in that side are full of trees… What did I think of course it’s all trees, it’s a forest after all!
After a few walks around the forest I saw a spot with less trees it’s like a circle of no trees inside it, as I walk around it, I can feel a lot of presence of elemental of spirits.
Now that I mention it, it is said that elves are the only race that can detect the presence of an elemental spirit, am I A HALF ELF?!
Oh wait, an interface pops up in front of me and a light on the skill ‘???’ is blinking, oh it must be that. I don’t really know what this ‘???’ skill do but it just did that. I can’t activate it, so perhaps it’s a passive skill.
Well I am bit disappointed that I don’t have the blood of elf inside me, but who am kidding my parents are both pure blood humans.
Alright I need to stop getting sidetrack or I will waste my time without even experiencing the use of magic.
Time to call the spirits, I think I need to chant something, what was the chant again?
Alright let’s try something I just need to think I am talking to the elemental spirits.
“Uh…Spirits come to me and grant me your power”
The once silent space was suddenly filled with mysterious voices.
After saying that I can hear like a lot of voices talking to each other maybe it’s the elemental spirits.
I need to chant something; oh, I remember a chant from one of light novels I read.
“Oh, spirit of wind grant me the power to slice through my enemies”
I think I just need to do an action like doing a slash with my arm in midair.
I prepared my arm to do that specific action
I slash the air using my arm and a wind current came out in a fast pace from where I slash the air cutting a lot tree ahead of me.
“Wow… I DID IT!! I finally did magic!”
the cheers of mine echoes throughout the forest.
------------------------
A time when Gabriel was just sent to be reincarnated to this world.

A silky long blue hair, a voluptuous body that many will die for and a beauty that not a single word can describe.
She flies above the skies unnoticed by those who have little mana, only the ones who have tremendous of mana can see her or to those who she wanted her to be seen by.
Who is this you may ask?
It is I the water spirit send by the powerful celestial being to watch over the otherworldly being, I must not fail or I will be vanished from this world if I ever failed the expectation of the powerful celestial being.
That won’t happen for I am not just a water spirit. I am Aqua the GREAT WATER SPIRIT! I will watch over the otherworldly being that even the powerful celestial being will be in awe by my greatness.
The world will bask on my greatness Ahahaha.
How may I find the otherworldly being you may ask?
The powerful celestial being said that the otherworldly being has no mana and all the being in the world has mana.
Alright I really need to stop talking to myself and search for the otherworldly being.
----------------
Eleven years later
WHERE THE HELL IS THAT OTHERWORLDLY BEING!!
I’ve been searching for eleven years.
I don’t even know where humans even settle to begin with, because of that I’ve been asking random people a.k.a humans to tell me where the nearest settlement. After that I go to that settlement and search around in hopes of finding the otherworldly being, I’ve been doing it for eleven years now.
Right now, I am crossing above a forest. it is said that there is a settlement nearby, but I have already experience this for the past eleven years hoping to see the otherworldly being but still nothing.
Now that I think of it, I’ve been showing myself to humans in such preeminence way.
First, I wait at night so not many humans are awake. Second, pick a random lone person in an enclosed place. Third, I brighten the whole area so that person can see me. Lastly, I ask them information and give them a small buff like strengthening them or increasing their life essence or mana (after all I am the great water spirit) as thanks to their cooperation.
As I fly through the forest, I felt a great power of wind a few miles away, so I rush towards it.
As I got closer and saw two being close by, I hid myself on a bush near them.
To my surprise I see a humanoid female spirit with long green hair and an OK figure and face (because mine is far greater, of course) Ah, I remember her that’s Sylphy the great wind spirit near a human male…. wait I don’t sense any mana in that human.
A human with no mana and I been searching for a being with no mana.
IT’S THE OTHERWORLDLY BEING!!
But what is Sylphy doing here and she seems to be smiling that’s the first time I saw her smile.
I try to grab her attention by softly calling her name but she seems to be so focused that she doesn’t notice me.
I saw a pebble near me and grab it throws it near her… still nothing, alright this is getting annoying
I opened my palm making a small water ball floating on my hand.
Aiming on her face.
Target align initiating throwing sequence.
I throw it at such high speed… boom headshot.
The water ball splash all over her face making a mess from her head to her upper body making it wet good thing she’s a bit far from the otherworldly being.
Looking at the otherworldly being he seems to be not affected by the splash of water.
Good good, I am such an expert thrower
I look once more where Sylphy was and she was gone.
Why do I feel an immense air pressure behind me?
As I look behind me, I saw Sylphy I can see bloodlust is all written on her face. It’s the same pressure I felt as when I once angered the powerful celestial being, but worse.
“Oh boy, I’m fucked” Aqua mumble as Sylphy gets closer to her.
“AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH “Aqua scream full of agony and was heard by Gabriel
“What was that?” Gabriel said
There were no sound after the scream.
“Must’ve been the wind” Gabriel mumbles to himself.
