Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start-Chapter 897: Stronger Siblings
-----
After finishing breakfast, which included a conversation between my parents and Erika's mother about planning a future wedding, which I didn't really liked that much. I was getting ready to go to Erika's house to start the crafting. I already had all the materials I needed, and Erika's house already has a forge of its own, so it shouldn't be too hard to get things done over there.
However, before I could step out, my siblings called out for me. I had told them that today there wouldn't be any hunting because I would be busy crafting, but they had a very urgent issue I had forgotten myself. Perhaps because I had assumed they would be able to get over it as easy as I or my friends did.
"Big brother, we need help…"
"We can't Rank Up!"
Anna and Allan called me with a rather sad expression on their faces. They looked normal while we had breakfast, but it seems they've been struggling with something quite important.
"What's wrong? How so?" I wondered, as the two showed me their Auras. They had a lot of Mana, but the Spirit Energy surrounding their Spirit Orbs was clogged and not flowing correctly.
"We can't cultivate spirit energy…" Anna sighed.
"How do we use it?" Allan asked. "Big bro never taught us that…"
"Oh right… I'm really sorry." I apologized. "I shouldn't have assumed you would have known right away. Mom, do they not teach them how to use spirit energy in school?"
"Well, that's usually knowledge that you can only learn from Magic Academies." My mother sighed. "So no. I am really amazed you were able to figure out how to use that energy on your own, dear. It is not normal, so it clears you're a genius. You taught the same to your friends, right?"
"Erika already knew how to use it too… Elizabeth as well, but yeah, some of my friends did learn from me." I nodded. "Wait, is this lack of knowledge what stopped you two from growing stronger when you were younger? The reason why you can level up, but our Rank hasn't increased…"
"Yeah, I guess so. I never learned about that myself, sadly." My father shrugged. "Back then this village was even smaller than before. Not many knew aside from the few noble houses. And there's no way they would bother teaching us anything."
"This is unprecedented… I thought the church of the holy spirits taught the children a few things at least." Cattalina sighed. "Elizabeth, do they?"
"They provide with food and other things to the poor, but we are not told to teach them these things, only religion." Elizabeth said. "I'm sorry…"
"It's fine, nobody is blaming you." I said. "It should be something that must be corrected. The reason why people end up with their Spirit Orbs weakened to the point they cannot cultivate anymore is because they don't begin manipulating spirit energy since an early age. Alright, let me teach you how to do this."
I patted my sibling's heads, as I brought them to the backyard with me. I made them sit down over the grass, as I sat down right behind them, placing my hands into their backs. And then told them to close their eyes.
"This is a bit complicated, but I will guide you the first time so you can do it on your own later. Alright? Make sure to remember this feeling."
"Okay…"
"S-Sure!" frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
They were nervous. I had to do this quickly. I imbued my senses into my aura and placed it into my hands. With it, I gathered threads of spirit energy out of their Spirit Orbs. And while doing so, I explained them something important.
"While we are all born with the ability to manipulate Mana due to its simplicity, Spirit Energy is much different." I explained. "While Mana often obeys you when you call for it, Spirit Energy is rebellious. Once you think you've grasped it, it will quickly escape your fingers and dissipate. It is a strong essence, but it is also complicated to keep amassed.
The existence of Spirit Orbs as a whole is an incredible miracle. You must use this organ to control this powerful energy."
I showed them how to slowly turn the spirit energy into threads, combine the threads, and grasp the energy tightly. After that, it was just a matter of letting it all out of their clogged spirit orbs and then back inside again. But this time slowly, while letting it rotate. By imagining it like threads, it made it easy for them to understand.
FLAAASH!
I was surprised that it happened so quickly, but both of my siblings Spirit Orbs fully Ranked Up after that. I did help them a lot, but the last step was done all by themselves. They did have a great deal of talent at the end.
Their Mana and Spirit Energy erupted in great quantities, growing much stronger than before. They gained small Spirit Auras, their Ranks increased to Rank 2 right away, an incredible feat for people this young. They were following on my footsteps quite well.
"Woah, I feel so much stronger now, big brother!" Anna said. "What happened?!"
"My chest hurt a bit, but now I feel anew." Allan said. "Oooh, so much Mana…"
"Congratulations, you're now Rank 2!" I smiled. "Onwards to Rank 3 now, hah."
I couldn't help but laugh over how ridiculously fast they were growing. Thanks to the EXP bracelets, their growth was even faster than normal. And as long as I help them with these things, they will surely get strong enough to protect mom and dad on their own.
I know father is strong enough to protect the whole family, but, even then, it would always be better if there were more capable fighters. My goal is just Rank 3, but if by some sort of miracle it could become possible for them to get to Rank 4, then that would be even better.
Nonetheless, it took my friends several visits on the hardest dungeon to get there, so I doubt they will be able to advance so quickly. The Elios Garden is still full of strange monsters. I am sure there are some strong enough ones yet to be discovered.
