《The undead who yearned for life》42-Slowly growing

---------------Elise POV---------------
Emptying my mana pool as a baby is not an easy thing to do, even though I'm trying to do it since a month ago, nothing comes out of it.
When I asked Julie how she did it in a mere two days, the only answer was: "you need to feel *Wooosh*then convert the feeling into an element by *foooosh* and in the end you simply let it leak outside of your body by *shhhhhhhhh*".
Not the best help I could hope for. What I made progress on is the training of my physical stats, they're still very low, but I gained two points in each of them, and now it's time to try again that .
As Julie told me, I found where the mana pool is present in my body, then I need to take some energy from it and convert it in an element... aaahhh, f**k it; I don't need an element, just get out of my body, now.
As I tried to send the unrefined mana out of my body, I could feel it flowing in each part of my body... what is this? The mana is not being leaked but trapped inside of my body?
Congratulations, because of your actions, you gained the and the skill Ki reinforcement

My first skill, and it's even a useful one, with this I'll be able to simultaneously empty my mana and train my body; though the cost is quite high for now, I'm sure that with time I'll be able to sustain it for longer periods of time.
From the maids' gossip, I found out that we have six brothers and four sisters; the oldest brother is already five years old while we're the youngest princesses as we're only two months old.
Problem is: they're all humans, and I already know that they will grow to hate and despise us because we're different from them... and even if we were humans, they would still bully us as we're the youngest princesses, so our possibilities to inherit the throne would be near to 0.
Couple it with us being halflings, and even the servants don't give us much respect, their glare is a more than sufficient proof; only our mother treats us nicely and loves us. When I grow strong, I'll make sure to also protect her, no one will be allowed to even touch one of her hairs.

Speaking of which, our father still hasn't visited once and I don't understand why; if he was scum, would he not come to have sex with the most beatiful female more or less always? Is he not coming in order to not send undesired attention in our way? It's still to early to judge.
-------------------------Julie POV--------------------------
It isn't so bad the life as a baby; eat, sleep, get cleaned *blush* and repeat. Though lately my sister is getting more and more aggressive while asking me how I did to empty my mana pool after only two days... fortunately I didn't tell her that because I was sleepy I only tried it for the first time after two days. *teheee*
When I tried it, I immediately got the skill External mana manipulation, from then on I simply used the light element to nourish my body... as for why, I can only say that it gives the most comfortable feeling amongst the elements, like being under the kotatsu with my whole body.
Because of that I took a liking to the light element and I use it whenever possible when mother is not looking. I asked Help about what to do to in order to not being found out by mother and he told me that our mother is good with a bow but bad at magic, which is rare for elves; so we didn't need to worry unless the magic can be seen by the eye.
The strange thing is that I can't use my future vision, I hope that it will appear as I grow older, but something is telling me it will not happen, probably the Fate Goddess didn't want me to use it and live as a normal person, without worrying about the future; and I quite agree.
It's not that good to always know the future, there were times were I gave up even before trying because of it, so there were many experiences I did not go through. This time I'd like to do them even if they will hurt me; because you never know right? It could also go well.
If worst comes to worst, I know that my brother will arrive in time to save me, so I'll not hold back.
Ah, it's time to tell Help how amazing my brother is.

A Tale of the Ages: Gods, Monster, and Heros
The past get's forgotten. Or so they say. Maybe they're right. Even the gods forgot the beginning, the reason it all started. But I refuse to forget, even if I'm driven mad by the memory. Salvation? It's pointless. No one is worth saving, but that doesn't mean they aren't worth helping. No one is a plaything, but everyone's a pawn in this game. I hate it. Who's playing? I don't know. I don't even know what the game really is. I gave up on figuring that out after a time. What I do know is that I want to tell you all a story. It has a beginning, a middle, and an end, as any good story should. But, I really don't think you'd keep listening if I told it in order. So, we will start at three points; you'll have to figure out where they are in the overall story. The story of Hal and instinct, a pair so close that they might as well have been one. The story of The Husk, a creature on a hunt that would span generations. The story of Mask and a hero. How one will come to learn of the other's past and the many faces they had. Do you know where you stand? Do you side with the gods, the hero, the demon king, the experiment, the cursed, the blessed, the monsters, the forgotten? Well? I know. You don't know anything yet, so you can't say. So, enter our world, and find out what side is what.

The First Primordial [DROPPED]
[Story dropped until further notice, I don't currently plan on restarting the story but will leave it as a possible option] During the Creation and before the inception of the Realms, there were 3 beings. Known as Primordials, beings even the God's knew little about that were rumoured to be myths or legends. Follow one of such beings that, given the unflattering name Arthur and the species of Demon, must figure out his place within the realms and find his fellow Primordials. Spending the beginning of creation within what will be called The White Realm then spending an unknown amount of time screwing around in the Demon Realm. Once he finally begins his story, he will be acquainted with a world full of grand vistas, religious nuts and floating rocks which will remove whatever little common sense he had remaining. Of course, there will be no shortage of trouble that will complicate things that (due to a poor ability in making good first impressions) will cause more than a few worlds changing events. These events include the destruction of a church and minor religion, including the death of that religion's God, messing with the reincarnated people and even introducing his own reincarnators along with the slight involvement of a war between the Demon Realm and the Creation Realm. Slow burn story; expect the story to be long with plot being introduced as it goes along. The story will include a main character with an actual mind and personality that will create, learn, and even destroy as the story progresses with an emphasis on what experiencing the other side of most novels, a perspective on that one whimsical god that brings the protagonist from one world to another that is only ever mentioned in the starting chapter. [PS- This will be my first time writing, so advice, tips and critiques will be appreciated. The release schedule is a bit iffy and unreliable but will mostly be every Sunday]

A crumbling autumn leaf
DROPED That systems comes out of nowhere, he's fine with that, it will be hard, but he can bring everyone... What do you mean we don't get to go to the tutorial? Well fuck. How did everyone else die anyway? They just needed to stay silent and not touch webs! Magic isn't even that hard, they could have survived this if they had just listened! Now his family is gone and Aki has nothing but time and the system notifications to figure out what actually happened to the rest of the world, perhaps even finding another reason to live after he finishes destroying the dungeon he spawned at from inside out. ***** This novel bases heavily on novels like Defiance of the fall, The new world and The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound. I would like to think that's it though, so please point out any sort of copying. As someone has pointed out though, i warn now that the main character is bisexual, so please, don't waste your time if that bothers you.
