August 18th

  It has been a few weeks since I received the letter, during that time I was learning some gardening with prik, the pnts that my mother cared for and cultivated had great properties when it came to casting spells.

  I was also reading books and expl some ers of the house to remember old times. Most of the books are about the history of magic, I guess the ones taining old spells will be easier to find at school.

  Alphoold me it would be best to make the trip to London this week so I could make the purchases requested by the Hogwarts academy letter, London... who knew I would go there before the great tragedy, and to think it was the beginning of everything I lost.

  In London, as I remember I lived in plete darkness due to the rain clouds that were stantly f in the sky, it was like looking at a colorless and damp pbsp;

  I wonder what it was like before everything, I'm already excited to go expl, of course, I 't be careless, I have to dey or end as soon as possible anything that might cause the resurgence of death iure.

  Alphonse has helped me with my magitrol, I did not remember that I had a bad magic flow and trol at this age, I asked Alphoo help me not because I did not know how to do it, on the trary, I had to learn by for stant battles that I mao fight against the dark forces.

  But there was something about Alphohat always geed a lot of admiration and curiosity in me, and I never had the opportunity to ask him directly how he did it.

  Alphonse had a fairly trolled flow of magic, he was even able to see how much magical power another person had and what their shortings were, my father who was even one of the best wizards at Beauxbatons Academy could not beat Alphonse in any direct duel.

  Even so Alphonse decided to serve my family despite how talented he was, a splendid magi no doubt, that even other families wanted him as a bodyguard or for other funs that honored such talent.

  Right now we usually have a duel or two in the backyard, I use to apply different spells to my body to be able to move more with this body that is not as strong or fast as my future self.

  That is why in the m training sessions with Alphonse he tries to teach me theory, a little bit of precision in casting a spell, and finally a reinfort bat.

  A long time ago I didn't uand this kind of training, it was b and tiresome, I eveo run away from home through the secret passages of the house, but still Alphonse always found me.

  The shooting teiques were simple, my marksmanship was not a problem now, my problem was my limitation of magic power.

  But even so, Alphonse was still determio teach me these teiques, at the beginning I did not uand him but as time went by I uood that he was only training me for future flicts, now that I have the opportunity I know that I take advantage of his teags and make the most of them.

  Prik is in front of the orchard c the orchard with a prote spell to prevent any damage, Amelia watches in surprise from the kit window.

  Or so I thought, but I was wrong, looking at Alphonse had not moved a bit from the pce where the fight began, while I've just been running without more, my magis out very quickly due to the little magic reserve I have, and that without ting that I only enhawo parts of my body, with the spells that my teacher developed iure, which are apply more resistand speed, so I run and prevent any attack I give me to resist or cushion damage.

  Then there is the fact that even standing in front of me and with only one arm holding his wand and the other behind his back, he seems to be off guard but his presence proves otherwise, I feel how his pressure makes my body heavier and I 't fire any spell, even what I have fired only deflect or sometimes don't shoot out of the wand Alphonse leo practice.

  This is quite frustrating, I thought it would be easier but Alphonse shows a determination and fiden his eyes that I don't see a ce of winning. Even with my bat experience, I have not even been able to touch him oh a spell, now I uand why my father had such a hard time winning against Alphonse.

  Without realizing it for an instant one of my shots goes straight to the window where Amelia is, and although for a moment I thought I had hit her, Alphonse positioned himself in front of me in a sed and repelled my spell towards me, causio fall to the floor without air.

  "My lord, are you all right?" asks Alphonse as I hear his footsteps approag me at high speed.

  "No wonder my father couldn't beat you, you are incredible Alphonse, you have everything pnned," I tell him with the little air I have left.

  "my lord, you have left me amazed myself, you have signifitly improved yidling, although you still o polish some things, besides your mobility is amazing, not to mention your impeccable way of analyzing the field if you tinue like this even I in a few years will lose against you my lord"- Alphonse says after healing my wounds with the Episkey spell which is a healing spell that heals retively small wounds or fractures and could also be used to relieve pain. Apparently, Alphonse developed his magi the battle against the first dark lord, that would expin his bat ability and his healing magic.

  "Thanks but I didn't think it would be so difficult to trol magic" - It was something he meant, the body of a child who just has magic is votile, and measuring the amount and strength used in each spell is something arduous this m I had several is with magic because although some shots mao hit the target without problem, others failed by the same ability of magical trol, Something that holy a magi like me should not have problems but for a child who is just starting in the magical world is something arduous.

  "That's right my lord, there are people who when young find it more difficult due to their flow of magie have their pathways closed and as time goes by these open up allowing some mages to have more power and trol, so don't over exert yourself with time I know you will go far my lord"- Alphonse says as he s the dirt left on my shoulders.

  The flow of magic is not something that be released easily, sometimes it is just luck, or so it was believed in the past, but iure, my teacher found a way to accelerate the process, something painful and inte very effective.

  Some sidered it as going against the ws of magis to acquire more power, but it was not so, the only thing that was done was to open the avenues fic to flow naturally in advanbsp;

  This process only be aplished quickly and pletely with a higher level of magic, although even three mages with halfway det skills do it if they know the proper procedure and it would take a month at most for this process to be plete.

  Oher hand, there is the lohod, the method that be implemented by oneself if you have full knowledge and stamina to endure such treatment, it would take months to finish or even years, and you would suffer stantly due to the tortuous task of opening one by ohe ways, of all the above this is the one I have to do, as this type of magic does not yet exist today and teag it could fall into the wrong hands and advance all the problems of the future to this present time.

  After our m fight I took a shower and got dressed, at least I already have more det clothes, I asked Alphoo buy me more fortable clothes, something sporty or at least one so I at least move without feeling like I'm wearing armor.

  The training sted weeks, I have mao unlock a few points of magic flow in my body, I still have marks and bruises that show that it is a method that forces the body, I also mao improve my accurad took the opportunity for Alphoo teach me a little healing magic, which to tell the truth made me promise not to tell anyone about how I lear or who taught it to me.

  "My lord, it is best that you say goodbye now, it is time to leave," says Alphonse as he gently knocks on the door.
