🌟🌟🌟
In following weeks, Lith followed a strict and routine. For boredom killing, he tried to activate his song's folder from his memory.( Hacks gg) During the day he was all wrapped up, so he practiced breathing technique and learn as much words from his family.
At night he would practice magic until exhaustion made him fall asleep. Then as soon he woke up, he will practice again, until his mother wakes up for the day.
Rinse and Repeat🔁.
Living as a baby wasn't easy. He can't talk cause of immature vocal cords, well I don't want to scare my family. He couldn't move, he could do nothing only sleep, eat, watch and relieve his bowels. (Irritation × MAX😬)
He would practice the magic spells to accept the new reality . His power was increasing progressively so did his controls.
He felt confident to try earth and water magic spells.
He would always be careful, never conjuring more than few droplets of water or manipulating a tad bit of dirt. He discovered that it was possible to make the elements float in mid-air or continuously changing their shapes or sizes, but mana expenditure was high.
After that. he changed his night training towards focus and control. His mana was very limited and so he focus on perfecting his tricks, rather blow his cover.
No matter how common magic was, but a baby practising would be rather terrifying. He got a sudden chill remembering - (HERESY! BURN THE DEVIL SPAWN!🔥💀 )
Lith was afraid of being abandoned by his family, or being killed on burning stake.
He have to play his cards well and bury the secret till his grave. Before revealing his skill, he needed to know common sense of this world. How much talent was required to being called good, how much divided being considered a genius to a monster?🤦🏾
All those worries had caused him a headache, but with regular songs from his memory he could alleviate his anxiety.
( Noice!)💁🏽
After 3 months with his regular training now he can use silent cast fire magic on firehouse easily. When no one was watching he would try to dance the flames with his will . It was ended in failure must be because of how strong the flames and distance was too far for his mana.🪄
But he could feel his mana in the fireplace, hence making it a nice training for mana sense and range. " Set your hearts blaze, Go beyond your limits! " (Rengoku-san🥲🍩)
The only downside was increase of hunger, luckily he wasn't Elina's first glutton and there was no shortage of milk.(Sugoi!😳)
After a month, Elina started weaning him.
This event was meaningful for 2 reasons, the first one was there was the food wasn't abundant. He could understand the worried expressions of his parents, he couldn't help but feel guilty about this.
They love him like a child, but he was quite baised towards Elina and Eliza. They were the ones who take care of him. So he lessened his training and only focused on breathing technique, so that he doesn't exceed the amount of food they can afford.
That too required certain trial method, but too little would cause more worries.
The second was world changing discoveries.
After lessening the training, the daily meditation helped in discovery of a new technique which he stated as "Accumulation"
That way his inner energy increased which he determine it as " mana core " forcing him towards a bottleneck.🧘🏽
Without realising,his body and mana core had developed together. But now the balance has broken, the practice of "accumulation" resulted in body aches, which force him to stop.
Luckily he was well fed and developed fast, which lessened down the bottlenecks.🍼
Second discovery was the result of him being forced to stop training and accumulation.
While studying the bottleneck status, he found it was possible to modify the breathing technique by removing the breath holding step. That way, the world energy would flow inside his body, recovering him like good night sleep.
He named this new technique as :
" Invigoration "🧘🏽
After using it several times, he found out that the world energy would allow him to stay awake for several days. But it wasn't indefinitely.
Each time he would practice Invigoration, the energizing effect would last less and less , only a nice sleep would reset it's effectiveness.🛌🏽
But the most important discovery was made by a chance. After adjusting his food intake, his biggest enemy was hunger. Even after the meal, there would always be a type of hunger lingering inside him.
But now he was so hungry that he would eat till his last bite and even clean his plate clean.🍽️
In the good days the portions were larger there was no problem, but in bad days because of portion or consuming more mana due to magic . There would always be a splitting headache all day, which make him muddle - headed most of the time. Food and his past memories were the aspirin in his life.💊
Ofcourse, he wasn't the only hungry one. Aside from mum, only his siblings Orpal and Eliza were tasked to feed him.
And while Eliza was big hearted, Orpal was getting angrier and hungrier by the day.
He would often daydream about the days, when he and his twin were the only children of the family. Now each day, he has to fight for attention, clothes, food and other necessities.( A/N : You think too much.🤦🏾)
Once the he had a room for himself, but after Trion was borned he was forced to share. It was just a Matter of time Lith would come and take away his personal space. He didn't liked it. (Typical bully brother plot💁🏽)
Orpal couldn't understand why a family as poor as his would keep making childrens.
It was winter there was nothing more to do.
Hence there were not many occasions for resupply, they had to last until spring.
It was the toughest time for the farmer's families, they have to take care of there family and also livestock too.
Orpal was sick was sick of watching Lith gobbling down all the food, to the point of calling him " leech ". Whenever there was time of feeding the little gremlin, he would take a spoonful for himself. But Lith wasn't easily bullied.
As soon as he found out, the spoon wasn't aiming for his mouth. He would madly cry out loud, Elina would run to his side, spoiling the plan of Orpal. "Hehe,all according to keikaku!" (A/N : Keikaku means plan🥸 )

Lith never cried unless for food or changing diapers, which made his parents both happy and paranoid about him. Since he never cried wolf, they took each wails seriously.🐺
Next was a very bad day for Lith, there was no one to feed him. And it was Orpal's turn to feed him.😑
His parents were not available at home, prolly went to check one of the cows which got frostbite.❄️
It was a nice chance for Orpal, so he took the whole plate of creamy soup for himself and took a spoonful.🥣🥄
Lith started to cry loudly but there was no one to hear him out . "Cry all you want
'leach' , today is just you and me , there's no mom in shining armour for your rescue" Now I can understood most common words and Orpal mockery too. After saying it out Orpal took another spoonful. 🥄
The hunger increased his rage, this was the moment where magic was useless. What could he do, aside blowing his cover? Wet him? Or use fire , for a spoonful of food, it wasn't worthy to burn down the whole house.
With his he couldn't think straight and was inwardly screaming profanities. "You wanker! getting ballsy after stealing food from a kid huh?"😠
When he saw the third spoonful 🥄, his rage took a new peak burning like a fire.😤
"You aren't my brother, YOU TRAITOR!😡" He yelled inwardly. "You are nothing just a piece sh*t with filthy tendencies.💩" With a clicking inside, he felt breaking inside like a dam that couldn't hold the all the raging.
"I HOPE YOU CHOKE UPON THAT SPOON, YOU SICK BAST*RD! YOU RETARDED THIEF!🤬" Lith waved his hands towards Orpal, then it happened.🪄
Lith felt mana going out through his hand towards the spoon reaching Orpal's mouth, pushing it down the throat. 'Hard'
( Gok..gok..gok..gok Deepthroated😅)
Orpal started to choke, after removing the spoon🥄 from his throat, he started puking.🤮
Lith was enlightened, he forgot about the rage and hunger. Rather focused on the strange phenomenon , he discovered a strange type of magic . A power that no one else in his family seemed to have.
A new type of magic similar to 'Telekinesis' which he termed it as " Spirit magic ".🪄
