Chapter -11: Important lesson

"Mom, I heard that Rika will sleep with you today."

Although I have made an arrangement with Rika tonight, it may be postponed as she cannot escape my clutches.

Although it's a bit unfair and a scoundrel's job, I have to do this... ah...life can make anyone a slave, people will do what they don't want to do....

"Yeah, she said it's been a while we slept together, it looks like she really loves me."

"Amelia, what brought you to our inn today, you hadn't come in the last two months, your shop wasn't even open regularly. If there's a problem you can let me know."

"There is a problem but there is nothing you can do about it. I am earning well by selling clothes, I just think everything is as usual."

"Same clothing, same design and wearing patterns are also similar. It's getting boring."

"I'm busy working out what to change so that clothes are sold at a cheaper price yet look better, with different styles and people also like something, that's what I'm thinking about."

"Aunt Amelia, you should have told me before, I knew many clothes designs and how to make them."

"How can a little kid like you know something like this, its not matter to joke about, you know I've been busy for almost a month coming up with some new ideas."

"The new design will popularize my shop and increase sales."

"Of course I dreamed about them. Who told me to dream these beautiful women wearing different styles of different clothes."

"You really know how to fool..hmm."

Suddenly my aunt's face turned serious I don't know what I said wrong

"Well listen Roy, your mother protecting you from wind and rain, doesn't mean you can be carefree for the rest of your life."

"There are many races in this world. Although everything seems peaceful, people always want more than what they already have."

"Profit can break any relationship so if one wants to be secure, one has to be powerful enough."

"And this is even more so for an adventurer, because members of your own party can deceive you at any time for profit."

"Everyone has their own views about life, there is nothing wrong with the one who is powerful. A person with strength can get whatever he wants and others will only look at him from one side."

"The weak can only have stones in his hands and be chess pieces for the strong."

"So remember well Roy your strength will be the most important thing to you, trusting others can be done to someone who will not betray you. Keep that in mind."

[Ding! The host has been taught the importance of strength.]

[Ding! INT +2]

When Aunt Amelia told me about strength, it really seemed like a very important matter.

Although I have Rika with me, for bigger mission we have to join another big party but without strength I will be just pawn.... system is really perfect, I lack intelligence seems true.

It seems to be true that people will think with crotch when they see beautiful women. And here I am surrounded by them, how can anyone expect me to think with a clear mind.

After some normal conversation, Rika brought fruit wine to drink and we all sat down to eat.

"Roy you didn't tell ummms...what mana elements did you awaken in today's ceremony...now, why don't you tell us."

Aunt Amelia asked me while filling her mouth with food.

"Aunt you have your dinner first, then we can have a good conversation and why not let Rika, first tell about the elements... what does Rika say."

"That's a good idea, tell little kitten, what kind of elements you've awakened today."

"Aunt, mother, you will hardly believe this, but I have three elements affinity."

"Wow Rika, I didn't expect you to surprise us like this. I really couldn't believe you got the three elements."

"Yeah mom, at first I thought it was unbelievable but the facts were in front of me so can't change it."

"My three elements are darkness, air and fire. What do you think?"

"You've actually got a little luck kitten, I wasn't even expecting this result you know."

"Looks like you will have a good future ahead. Hey brat, she has awakened the three elements, that means she will really be the power in the future. Whatever element you have you have to maintain your growth, or you will loose her. "

"Aunt how can I leave Roy?"

"It's not a choice that a weak person can make. You have talent with yourself, people will follow you everywhere, so you can get under them, work for them."

"The nobles of each races look for talented brides for their children so that their offspring may become more powerful."

"They can go to any lengths if they comes to know your talent, to get you."

"If you don't want to, they'll turn around and ask people close to you, forcing you by threaten their lives and make you have listen their say in any condition."

"Society is full of garbage, the strong will oppress the weak, that's the law of this world."

"If you are strong they will respect you in front of you and in your back, will plan against you, whereas if you are weak you will have to surrender straight away. Or death will be your only option."

"Auntie thank you I will do my best to be strong."

"You don't have to worry Rika, no one can harm you with me, obviously I won't be getting involved in that list."

"Oh child it looks like you've got yourself a very good elements in awakening mana."

"You bet I got it."

Roy knew that the system gave him the best physical condition to awaken the elements and the mana, so he never concerned himself with it.

But now that I think about it,... I never knew what elements I had an affinity for... Hmm... It's embarrassing.

"Tell us, Roy. What are you doing so secretive about this??"

"Mom it's not that I don't want to tell you, just that I never checked what elements I had."

"And the most serious problem is that I don't know how to check which elements I have affinity for."

Hahahahah...

"It's no laughing matter, you know, it's a serious problem for me."

"For a second I thought you awakened to some good elements when you said in a masculine tone 'Rika you don't have to worry' ... got it."

hahahah

"It's really hilarious, brat I didn't expect you to be so dumb... hahaha."

All three of them laughed so much, I guess I really need some common sense now. This situation was embarrassing.

"Hmm..hn Roy If you want to check what elements you have awakened, just feel the mana inside your body and try to manipulate it on your palms, think of the different elements that you will understand, Give it a try."

When I heard her explanation, I tried it.

'Feel the mana of the body, thinking of the fire .... yes this hot mana flow, then move it towards your hands and then the mana to the palms on the hand imaging it like flames.'

"Wow this is a flamethrower I can't believe it, does it look like magic?? it's amazing.."

"Roy take it back, cut the mana from being supplied to your palm or you'll faint from exhaustion."

I suddenly started to feel dizzy, seemed to be limited to the amount of the mana one have in there body.

"Mom, I feel like I'm feeling heavy in my head....um"

thud..

.....

There was silence at the table for a while before Rika got up and headed towards Roy.

"Ah... how can this kid be so careless... He didn't pay any attention to his mana amount.."

"Rika take him to your room. It will take some time for him to wake up."

"Akari did you see the flames that were too powerful for a man who has just awakened his mana... Your little boy has more than three elements to hold so much mana, otherwise it's not possible to have so much mana just after awakening."

"You're right. But the more elements he has, the more difficult it will be for him to level up his mana amount later.. and the harder it will be to control those different elements."

"You are right, it is not easy for a person to control different elements while he is using one. I am pretty sure he will find it difficult."

"You must hire someone who teaches him how to use his elements and mana otherwise every time he faints like this it will be a big problem in itself."

"You're right, I think I have someone who can teach him and make him good at controlling the elements."

"What are you talking about, don't tell me you're not thinking of her... Roy's still young, he can't handle that... Why don't you pick someone else."
