Chapter 196: An Elf Girl That Sneaks Inside Libraries
Alma POV IV 2/4
-----
Due to the recent discovery of my Unique Skills by my parents, and due to the danger, that my Endless Mana could bring to the world or well, me, my parents had been pretty clingy with me and usually don't leave my side.
Due to this, they had begun to ignore big brother even more than before… And yeah, I haven't seen him in a while, I don't even know where he could be at, which is worrisome.
Today as my maid was attending my hair, I asked her about my brother.
"Have you seen Callon?" I asked.
"Callon-sama? I've seen him once in a while, young lady. He's very busy as of now, he had begun studying in the Magus Academy and is also training in the Warriors Guild to sharpen both his magic and physical power. He's working very hard. His magic had progressed by leap and bounds and so his technique with the blade… He's shaping himself to become a strong Spellblade.
Spellblades are special forces of our Kingdom, they are incredibly agile, dexterous, and amazing sword masters that use both magic blades and magic to fight, their techniques are unique and well known all across this region of Alfheim.
"Well, I am glad that big brother is working hard… But I wish I could meet him one of these days."
"Oh? Young lady, are you concerned about your brother? Do you miss him? Fufu, so cute…"
"Rose, don't tease me like that! What's wrong with being concerned about my brother? It has been over a year since I haven't seen him… Since all of this incident with my powers surged…"
"Young lady, don't worry, Callon-sama is in good hands, your uncle and aunt are currently taking good care of him. Your uncle is known as one of the strongest Spellblade Generals of the Kingdom."
"I mean, I am not worried about his safety… It's just… Hahh… Forget it," I sighed.
"Young lady, is there something you're concerned about? Please, open your heart to me, I've been taking care of you for years…" sighed Rose. The beautiful elf woman's charming beauty startled me sometimes, I often had to avert my gaze from her pretty face because it felt like it was making me go dizzy.
Her beautiful pink hair is really quite shiny today… Damn, if I were a young prince, I would have already tried to take advantage of her! But as a little girl, there's not much libido within me.
Though I guess I still do like women…
But I can't really tell her this stuff…
"No, nothing, don't worry about it, Rose," I said, waving my head as I saw myself in the mirror, now that I was already 6 years, I had been grown a lot and looked even cuter than before, my body had grown a bit taller, but I still looked like a little elf loli… My soft and silky blonde hair was made into spiraling drills, and I had a little hair popping from above my head resembling a little grass leaf that made me look even cuter.
My eyes shone with emerald light, and my body was delicate and thin. My skin was white like porcelain as well.
Uagh, I am still growing used to this female body, even after 7 years! But I can't possibly let anyone know that I used to be a gross and fat otaku before becoming this angelic elf princess…
Though I have begun to embrace a few things within my new self… And I kind of like cute dresses.
I kind of want to use magic…
But my parents put some seals into my chest that doesn't let my mana flow freely, because they fear that my Endless Mana might spiral out of control and the overcharge of energies could kill me.
Well, yeah, that's a possibility…
But I want to use magic anyways!
And I cannot even cultivate my Mana Core…
Will things go like this forever?

Half a year has passed since then, and I've been doing mostly nothing. My parents are now busy investigating more about Unique Skill users, and a guy named Greenwood showed up talking with them about something important. I don't know exactly what it is, but maybe it has to do with me…
Since this half a year that I've spent it mostly with my maid and second mother, Rose. My mom still comes here to see me sometimes per week, and I enjoy being embraced by her large breasts. She often mentions that she's worried about me…
I mean, aside from the whole curse thing, I am completely fine!
Maybe they're trying to find a way to lift the Curse?
Sigh… But they really shouldn't!
I will be fine. I can just use what I have.
Even with shitty No-Attribute Magic, almost zero magic damage with a Rank 1 Mana Core, as long as I have infinite fuel in Endless Mana and amazing use of magic through Continuous Casting, I should be able to fire shotguns of no-attribute magic.
But they don't let me use it because they fear the endless mana might make my body be overwhelmed, which would end up killing me.
That's quite a possibility… but if I was born just fine, this means that my body is perhaps already adapted to it or something! And what about my Mana Core? It should be used to it too, right?
Although I haven't been able to conjure a single spell this whole time, I've been sneaking around into the Castle's Library and reading a lot of books about magic, elements, spirit summoning, and more. I found only three books about no-attribute magic, and they seemed interesting.
It seems that they were written by a former no-attribute mage, the most talented there was in the entire Kingdom, in fact! He had even become an ancient Spellblade, named Radrugo Elfaune.
His book about all the spells he ever created was useful for me, but without access to my own mana, it was impossible to try them out…
Nonetheless, I tried to memorize them, and I've done a decent job at it, I think…
Today, as I was invited to a dinner, I managed to meet this mysterious elf, Lord Greenwood…
