44-8 fast years (Julie)

  ------------------Julie POV----------------

  Waaaaaahhhhhh, eight years passed as fast as a lightning, so this is how it feels to have a good childhood without having to worry about the future; before you realize it, you're already there.

  Some days ago Help said that my birthday was coming and that the time frame in which I could acquire stats without a limit will end on that day. When I stopped to talk to him a tantrum, he said that he would give me a gift, and when I mentioned that it was also Elise's birthday he sighed, but then he said that of course he didn't forget her, yay.

  During the years, I tried to train as big sister did, but after half an hour all my muscles ached, so I decided to find another way to train; when I asked to Help, he said that the best for me is to nourish my body with every element I possess an affinity for.

  So I started to use the dark element to keep cool during the day, the light element during the night to keep myself warm and sleep better, the spatial element while reading in order to remain concentrated and the nature element always active alongside the others (I can only keep two elements nourishing my body always active).

  As for why the natural element? I don't know, but Help said to do it, that it would greatly benefit my body and show to everyone that I can become even prettier than mother and enchant my womanly charm... I'm still trying to understand what he meant, but now sometimes Elise looks at me, then at herself and then she sigh and goes back to training... strange.

  Because I had so much free time unlike my sister, I decided to ask mother to allow me to go in the royal library to read after finishing all the books we had. Fortunately she gave it to me, and since then the time Elise spent in training, I would go to the library, that is immense.

  No one would be able to read all those books in their lifetime... ah, but maybe now that I'm half-elf I could manage to do it, given a few centuries. The amazing thing is that every book that I read, it would rise my intelligence, some times it also raises without me needing to do anything.

  I also researched for a way to bring my brother back to me, but still it hasn't worked... maybe at level 10 when I'll get my class I'll be able to make it works.

  "Yes, thank you very much Help, after my brother you're the best person I know, continue to take care of me even in the coming years, ok?"

  "Yes, leave it to me, my summoning magic will work", now how about a review of what I gained lately? "Show status, skills and proficiencies".

  Eeeeeeh, what can I say? The continuous use of my skill and reading did that to my status... to think I only did what Help told me, it's quite the result; I don't know how high are the stats of the skills of mages in the kingdom, but for sure I should be able to enter a decent school after the screening at 15 years old.

  I also intend to choose the summoner class once I manage to hit level 10, this way I'll have more possibilities to summon Jack here; I still don't understand why the energy of his soul hasn't stabilized, the only way of knowing is to summon him.

  Talking about friends, the other day I finally met one of my brothers, the 9th prince, his name is Eric and he's two years older than me. He's a good guy to be around, he never bully me with training like my sister and always listen to me, though I never tell him about important things, we only talk about the books in the library.

  Once I gave him some ideas from my old life in order to resolve the problem of the dirtiness in the city, I mentioned that the sewers would resolve it, but at that moment my sister shouted at me through our bond to shut up.

  Afterwards I asked her why, but she didn't tell me the real reason, just something about not showing off before being strong and to not casually talk about our old life knowledge, that people here wouldn't understand and are racist, so a witch hunt isn't past them.

  Though I can't understand how they could do a witch hunt in a world with magic, I followed my sister orders because she's the older one (I asked mom about it once), and the younger sister needs to do what the older one says.

  Still, I'd like to meet all our siblings and our father, but both mom and big sister say that it's better to not mingle with them, that they could pass to us some kind of illness, and when I talked about it with Eric, he agreed with them; better stay away from them it seems.

  What I can't understand, is why all the maids and butlers always look at me with a disgusted glare, it's not like I'm dirty or there is something on my face, so why? Even when I ask about it to Help, he always avoids to answer; I noted that from when I lost my future vision, my life is easier, but a lot of things don't make sense and my airheadedness raised.

  Well, not that it matters, there is my sister that think about all those bad things for me, at least I understand that, so I only need to follow her lead and everything will be good.

  I don't know if I'll be able to make the 4th chapter in today, but I'll try; Julie's skill set took over an hour to make.

  Next chapter will be from the POV of the mother.
