Chapter 195 Volume IV - 40: Newly Awakened Seer

Chapter 195 Volume IV - Chapter 40: Newly Awakened Seer

My eyes flickered, and as the rhythmic ticking of a clock echoed in my ears, I noticed a source of light hitting my face and tried to turn my face away from the light.

However, I paused when I realized the hardness of the ground I was lying on, then opened my eyes and realized I was really on the floor.

"Ah..."

Memories suddenly filled my mind. The pain, the flame that burned my heart, the sphere with cracks in it, and... notifications.

I slowly sat up and looked at the clock.

My class would be in the fourth lesson in a few minutes.

I sighed deeply, stood up, and saw that I was not in any pain whatsoever. In fact, I felt even better than before, as if I had been reborn.

I stood in front of the mirror, my clothes were stained with sweat stains and they smelled. My hair was disheveled and my eyes were... the same. It didn't look like much had changed.

I threw myself down on my couch, closed my eyes, and thought.

Did I... Did I awaken?

I thought about all the things I'd seen on the internet about this. How did they do it? By thinking?

I simply imagined a holographic window opening in front of me, and then a blue light that only I could see hit my face.

"By thinking..."

While confirming my thought, I examined the window in front of me. My hand could pass through it, it was blue and... strange.

I didn't focus too much on that though and looked at what was written.

I blinked my eyes a few times, meaninglessly rereading what was written a few more times, yet what was in front of me didn't change. It was... real. Like, really real.

There was something called 'Xavir' where my race was written, most of my stats were normal, but two stats, mana efficiency in particular, were strangely higher than they should be. There were three 'abnormal' effects under the name of status effects, there was a title I had never heard of anywhere before called Xaevirea's Lineage, and...

I had a passive skill, a passive skill that only seers have.

My eyes suddenly widened. Everything in my mind was suddenly erased and only the name of the skill echoed in my mind. I swallowed, unable to take my eyes off the skill.

Did I... become a seer?

A... seer?

The truth hit me again and again, and I just kept staring at the name of the skill as all my thoughts were jumbled together.

"Whoa... It can't be real... right?"

There are only three seers in the world... Am I the fourth?

It's not a dream, is it?

I took a deep breath, then focused on the skill, and another notification popped up in front of me.

<<------------------------------

Clairvoyance(A)

The user can see the near or distant future in the form of meaningful or meaningless images and sounds related to events and people that are important to him or her, to those with whom he or she is connected by fate, or to his or her environment.

If the user is particularly focused, they may see a random image from the near future, but at a price.

------------------------------>>

"Hahaha... Ahahah!"

My laughter filled the room and I repeated inwardly.

I am a seer... a seer!

A big, involuntary smile formed on my face. I didn't really care about the strange things that were appearing in my status window. Maybe it was something that comes with being a seer, maybe it had something to do with the visions I was having about my past. But I was still a seer! Was there a higher position than that in this world?

There are only three seers in the world!

I looked excitedly at the second skill I had acquired, Memory Travel, and opened its description.

<<------------------------------

Memory Travel(A-)

If at least one of certain conditions is met, the user can see, navigate and examine the memories of the person in focus. However, user cannot change them.

The conditions are:

1-) If you have the person's permission, you can look directly into their memories.

2-) If the person is mentally weak, you can look directly into their memories.

3-) If you establish a certain amount of contact with the person, spend time with them, and build a bond of trust, you can look at their memories.

------------------------------>>

This is also a good skill... I can look into the future, and with this skill, I can indirectly look into the past too.

I closed all the system windows in front of me, then sat back and thought about my future.

As a seer, I can be really important to this kingdom. I can be swimming in as much money as I want. I can even be one of the top people in this kingdom. I could become a noble...

I paused even for a moment while my dreams were decorating my mind, and then this pause lasted longer and longer. The smile on my face slowly fell and all those thoughts in my mind were replaced by a few questions.

What should I do now?

If I say I'm a seer, will really good things happen to me? And I awakened before I turned seventeen... Should I reveal something so serious at my age?

I don't even know what this Xaevirea's Lineage and aera are... What if it's something that will cause trouble for me, for my brother?

I frowned, sighed deeply, and looked up at the ceiling.

Should I wait for my brother to come back? He'll know what to do, right? After all, he's a smart guy, he's also well-connected... Can I trust anyone else but him on this?

I thought about it, but I couldn't think of anything else.

No... right?

Finally, I put my hands together and repeated it to myself again and again.

I don't know exactly when my brother will be back, but... I have to wait for him on this matter. As long as I don't tell this to anyone, for now, it won't cause me any trouble. I guess, at least.

I quickly stood up, put a smile on my face and with that, an idea came to me.

I now have access to the mana in my body... right? How... does it feel to control mana?

My curiosity suddenly overcame all my desires. I wanted to experience it. After all, it was the first time I had awakened and the first time I had real access to mana.

So I focused on this strange energy inside me, and suddenly a strange sensation enveloped my body. It was as if I was swimming in a big pool... Or rather, this feeling was in my body, this feeling itself was my mana.

My smile widened, I tried to distribute this mana throughout my body. However... just at this moment, something unexpected happened.

The mana I was trying to control suddenly started to move beyond my control. And with that, my reserves of mana suddenly started to run out... at an almost frightening rate.

My eyes widened, and the smile on my face quickly faded. I panicked, looking this way and that, trying to understand why my mana was being drained, while the image in front of my eyes suddenly flickered. Reality seemed to distort, the light bent, and what I saw blurred. Slowly it changed, and then I found myself in a strange place. In a dark place. At the same time... cold.

At the same time, a fleeting thought, a possibility passed through my mind and I understood.

It was a vision, the first time the Clairvoyance was working.

I didn't know it spent so much... mana. Is that why my mana efficiency statistic is so high?

Once I realized what was happening, I relaxed, even though I found it strange, and tried to focus on the image changing in front of my eyes.

As the image changed, it first blurred, then darkened and darkened, and finally became clearer. It was a place I had never seen before, a... a battlefield. Or rather, it was a spot not far from a dead city left behind by a battle that had taken place.

The image began to rotate, moving towards what looked like a dark palace. Then it went inside this palace, which felt like a haunted house, and continued further and further into the ground. Finally, it stopped in front of a room. It was a dungeon for prisoners... and a specific room within this dungeon.

The door opened, revealing the dense darkness hiding behind it. There was someone, logically. Only... it was not clear if this person was a human being.

The body of the prisoner was faint, blurred. It looked like a dark... ghost, and at the same time, there was a tiny flame inside, purple in color. His head was bowed, his left hand was tied to a broken chain, while his right hand was tied to another chain that was still intact.

The prisoner raised his head as if he recognized my presence. Then I saw what he looked like and my insides trembled.

He really did resemble a ghost. No... not a ghost, but someone who shouldn't exist. That's why it was like a ghost. Someone who didn't belong to this world, someone this world rejected.

And he was angry. Cold, frightening even.

The prisoner raised his unchained left hand and brought it toward me.

I stepped back in fear, and then the tiny flame that burned inside his body suddenly expanded and engulfed his whole body, as if it had been roasted. It traveled to his raised arm and the whole room was suddenly illuminated with a purple glow.

My eyes dazzled, I closed them reflexively, and the strange cold I had felt since I began to see the meaningless, strange image receded.

I opened my eyes again, a little timidly, and found myself in my room.

My knees went weak, I collapsed on the floor and put my hand over my heart.

I breathed in and out so deeply that it felt like I had been out of breath for minutes. I felt a little dizzy, but I didn't care.

I played the image over and over in my mind, especially the image of the prisoner.

The person I had seen...

Who was he?
