"Brother, breakfast is ready!"Wallace"s cute little sister called out to her brother after noticing that he was still asleep on his bed. Right now, there"s only his parents and his younger sister living in this house. Though Wallace still has an older sister, she"s currently serving military and won"t be back sooner.
He opened his eyes and smiled at his 8 year old little sister. He was actually awake for quite some time now and was only in deep thought.
"Mom said you will return to your school today. Is that true?"
"Yes, but I"ll be back before the end of the year."
She pouted and seemed unhappy about his brother leaving again. During his several days at home with his family he has only gotten closer with them especially with this little sister of his. She left unhappily and headed downstairs for breakfast but before she left his room his brother called her.
"Claire, I"ll bring you another gift next time."
This time she smiled a bit and nodded before leaving.
Every member of the Ravencroft Family has a grey hair. Wallace is not an exception, he was now looking at his reflection on the mirror. His looks can be said to be quite attractive with his fit body and pale skin.
He washed up a bit before heading downstairs to join the family in breakfast.
"Mom, Dad, I plan to partic.i.p.ate in Twelve Magic Academies Compet.i.tion. No, I need to qualify to be a representative from our Academy"
Yes, Wallace has sorted his mind and already has plans for the near future and joining the compet.i.tion is one of them.
Both his parent sized up their son. They know what he meant by announcing this, after all students who qualifies to partic.i.p.ate in this compet.i.tion possess knowledge far above on what their current Academy could teach them.
This means that students who partic.i.p.ate here boast powerful background, either because of wealth or their lineage. They have heritage that could keep them above the rest.
Looking at their family living in a simple house in a small town, they shouldn"t be capable of possessing such heritage and to partic.i.p.ate in such grand compet.i.tion should be impossible.
But Wallace knew his parents. Their background isn"t so simple as what it looks. His mother who was a diligent housewife is a member of the prestigious Mavis Clan. His father who works right now as a mechanic has a good family background as well, though it had somehow declined already, it had produced many renowned Magic Engineers throughout the years.
Wallace was basically asking a.s.sistance to get support from them. He was aware that situation on their family and could only hope for the best.
His father Chase explained to Wallace while smiling,
"It"s a good thing that you have an ambition, we will definitely support you. We can impart all our resources to help you here. But getting direct a.s.sistance from the family might prove difficult"
"Let"s finish our breakfast first and we"ll show you something later. This will help you to improve your performance as a Magic Engineer."
Her mother Elaine unhurriedly suggested to his son. She looks glad as well that his son has plans to further improve himself. She could only hope that his plan would last for long and he wouln"t change his mind as improving in mana study will be very difficult.
The a.s.sistance she could actually offer on her son"s endevour was called Memory Crystal. But using this crystal can be very painful so it was not really being recommended and only being used in desperate times. Normally, three crystal is the maximum amount that a person can consume.
Wallace has weak affinity to mana. But it only means that he couldn"t exert control to a large amount of mana.

He could not be Combat Magician like his older sister due to this. He couldn"t even create a Grade 1 Mana Sh.e.l.l that could cover his whole body. This skill was one of the most basic that magicians could learn without Mana Artifact. But unfortunately, Wallace could only manipulate a small amount of mana.
Even with this shortcomings he still has some talent in magic engineering. He was gifted on mana manipulation, mana blessing and has a good brain which is enough for average magic engineer who is aspiring to work in some Mana Artifact factories.
Wallace was different, his out of this world knowledge about advanced technology will prove to be very helpful in his career and the only problem he has right now is to also have an advanced knowledge in mana study. He obviously plans to merged both of them to achieve something new or different that will give him some edge to qualify in the compet.i.tion.
He plans to create something new. A new Magic Artifact never before seen in this world to guarantee that he will qualify in the compet.i.tion. But to accomplish that he requires an advanced knowledge in Mana Manipulation, Mana Formation and Array, Material Enhancement, Magic Structure and other advanced mana study.
With all those said, he was also hoping that his parent has some surprises they could give to him. He then started eating his breakfast while feeling a bit excited as well on what his parents will show him later.
He knows his own weakness so he needs to get whatever help he could acquire.
