NovelEnglishChapter 6: Wind Control
“I must become a Level 2 Esper and manifest a Pill Fire! Only that way can I create that pill for father. However, I have not yet thoroughly researched the plants and herbs of this world. I have to go to mom’s clinic as soon as possible and check out these herbs myself. With the knowledge from the books, I am only 40% certain that I can make that pill, but before that, I must cultivate first! Without becoming a Level 2 Esper, how can I even refine a pill!” Leric took a deep breath as he patted his fat cheeks. He then clenched his plump hands as he stared at the window.
Leric was 3 years old and he was very short at the moment. He tried to jump and reach for the window only to stumble and fall face-first on the wooden floor.
Thud!
Ouch!
Leric grimaced as he grabbed his burning cheeks. His cute face contorted in pain, but he did not dare emit a cry. It would only worry his parents and they would surely make him rest if they find out about it. If that happens, it would be harder for him to sneak out of their house.
Knock! Knock! Knock!

.....
“Don’t worry, mom! I just dropped the book I was reading on the floor!” Leric answered hastily while rubbing his cheeks. It still felt painful, but for an old man like him, it was not unbearable.
“Alright. Be careful and don’t jump around, okay?” His mom said before she walked back to the dining room.
“Yes, mom!” Leric replied. He then carefully opened the door and checked if his mother was still outside. When he noticed that no one was there, Leric closed the door and grabbed a chair. He then placed it facing the window.
Leric lifted his plump legs and climbed the chair. He opened the window and gazed at the scenery outside.
A place filled with tall trees and rich arable land that extends far away. There were also dozens of houses scattered within this land. This was the territory under the jurisdiction of his father who was a Level 2 Esper. It was located in the periphery of the city of Barden, the fourth largest city of the Leone Empire.
After relishing the beautiful sight, Leric glanced below. His room was on the second floor of their two-story house. This height made the short Leric a bit scared, but when he recalled that he was already a Level 1 Esper, he slowly calmed himself.
“I can do this. I’m already a Level 1 Esper! My body should be stronger than a normal 3-year-old. It should be comparable to a teenage boy’s body. So how do I get down from here? Do I jump? Hmm...” Leric gulped hard as he sat on the opened window. His eyes were shaking as he stared at the ground below.
“Control the energy of the world and make my fall light. I should be able to do that with my current level, but how?” Leric muttered as he focused his mind. His clothes fluttered as a gust of wind enveloped his body.
You have acquired the skill ‘Wind Control’.
Hm?
Leric was surprised when he discovered the new details added to his Status Screen.
“Did I just learn a new skill?” He muttered in surprise as he read the description of his new skill.
Skill [Wind Control] Level 1
– You have the ability to summon the wind. The power of the wind that you can summon depends on your level and mastery of the skill.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLooking at the skill description on his Status Screen, Leric smiled widely, but his cheeks suddenly burned with pain, making him groan silently.
“Now, how do I use this skill? Maybe I have to say the skill’s name like those s in my past life? I’ll try it. Hehe.” Leric stood on the window and whispered.
“Wind Control.”
“Huh? Nothing’s happening... It looks like I have to use my mind to control the power of the wind.” He closed his eyes and tried to feel the wind around him. He then used the unknown energy inside him to control the wind.
Swoosh!
Leric opened his eyes and a wide smile broke into his face as he said. “So that’s how it is done.”
He then jumped without hesitation and controlled the power of the wind to jump from the second floor down to the ground noiselessly.
“I did it!” The little boy exclaimed joyfully with his fists raised in midair. He stared smilingly at their house before sprinting away silently.
“My mother’s clinic is just three houses away from our home. I’ve been there before, I just hope that it’s not locked.”
Leric carefully trod the stone pathway and avoided the people walking outside. He was like a sneaky cat that was planning to steal someone’s food.
After less than a few minutes, he stopped in front of a two-story building. It wasn’t built as great as the clinics in his past life, but the place was clean.
“I will begin cultivating inside. No one should be here now since my mom is still resting.” Leric said as he pushed the door.
