Mana: Before The Rise - Chapter 294

Gaze sat in a relaxed mood in the pavilion of the garden she. Lifting her hand, she catches the small wild child that decided he wanted to jump out the balcony above.

The small blue-haired and violet eyed child smiled at her and flung his hands to hug her. She had a blank expression, but he eyes seemed to have soft just a little bit. After the hug the boy jumped off her and ran off into the garden bushes.

Gaze rolled her eyes util he came back, running.

“Mom, Mom, Mom, Mom” he said screaming, Gaze just looked at him with a dull expression. A large wolf came out from the bushes behind. Before it reached him, it was slammed to the ground, this is the capital there are no forest around.

Where the F***, did this dog come from.

Gaze waved her hand and it was swallowed by her shadows the next minute.

“Race!” Marlowe called from a distance.

“Daddy!” Race ran to his father that looked he aged; his son has been waning him down with all the trouble he causes. When Race was one, he first started using his power, and it was teleporting. He was in his crib one second only to pop up over a thousand meters in the sky enjoying his sky-drop.

The People of the empire adore this wild prince and his crazy antics.

As he grew older, he got stronger, and started using other abilities. One day while watching the Red guards train, he pulled out an earth shaped sword and started waved it around only to hit himself with it. Causing him to cry for an hour.

Until Marlowe had gotten there to comfort him.

Now he gotten to the point where he summoned creatures from random places. He summoned a whole mountain large dragon, while he was playing around. The red guards couldn’t beat it so they kept it busy, until Gaze showed up to dispose of it.

Things like this was expected at he was absorbing the extra power in the world.

There was a time where he and Marlowe went out on a father son fishing trip by the river. When they came back Gaze nearly dropped her cup of Coffee. It was only a two-day fishing trip to.

Apparently, their trip turned into a hike along the arctic, to a 10-mile swim from the beach, and then a nice walk back home from the middle of a volcano. Let’s just say the heat gave them both very ashy skin.

Race had a blast, but Marlowe seemed to have lost his spirit and was bedridden for a month or two.

At the spring Equinix event, Gaze held a large banquet. High ranked Red Bloods where allowed inside the palace, but that did not mean the lower-ranked where neglected as they were given free food to celebrate. While overlooking the beautiful aura in the sky and participating in the events held in their specific areas.

Out of the corner of her eye, Gaze spotted Race, being cutesy to a guest while pranking them. When the guest noticed they had been pranked they laughed. She turned her face to pay attention to the other guests. Marlowe was enjoying a conversation with others that also looked to be doting fathers.

Suddenly, she frowned and turned her head back to her son.

A giant lion was there next to Race. She saw that her guest where so shocked that they where silent. Race had a face that did not seem like anything was wrong.

“…..” Gaze gave a blank stare and waved her hand allowed the lion to be swallowed by her shadows before it knew sense to attack. They people where relieved and Race went running around the ball room. Greeting and charming everything that walks, before he ‘mistakenly’ use his power to summon some unknown creature.

Her night was nearly spent with her shadows eating the creatures before the attacked.

Until the shooting stars began, drawing everyone’s attention. They all began to head out toward the balcony to get better looks. She watched as Marlowe picked up his son so they he could get a better looked.

The next second he teleported from his father’s arms, leaving a stunned and shocked Marlowe to looked back and forth for him. Gaze had her hand out as her hand was tightly held on the color of Race’s shirt. She opened and closed her mouth, like she was saying something. Whatever it was it made Marlowe turn towards her and breath a sigh of relief when he saw Race was in her hand.

The Kid decided to travel into space, He’s lucky that he has gifts because normally leaving the atmosphere could kill a person much less a child.

Race was tame as he looked at his mother with a smile, that then turned into a frown and then into soft sniffle. Probably because he can’t use his powers, why because Gaze is blocking them.

When it’s safe enough she is totally going to seal them away, but, for now she is going to have to deal with his mess.
