Hey, it''s me coda again, I''m now 5 years old, Nothing much happened during those Five years, except for the fact that my Father is now training me in swordmanship
I am currently in the middle of said training session, in our backyard watched by a smiling mom.
"Faster Coda ! You are too predictable, too straightforward, I can see you coming a mile away !" Said my father as he kicked meaway after another failed attempt
The training is simple, I have to hit him on certain points, it can be in the stomach, the head or certain part like the forearm.
Needless to say, my 4x Growth speed is a cheat skill, and it doesn''t only affect my learning speed and exp gain, it also affect my general growth, I am five years old but I already have the body of an eight year old.
I was scared that it would mean I wold die four time faster, but goddess told me that It will stop once I reach my 20 years, my growth in body I mean, the effects of the skill will still be here.
"Coda you''re distracted." my Father brought me back from my thoughts, I had enough time to dodge an incoming strike, but I still got hit by the next attack. I fell on the floor.
"It''ll be enough for today, I don''t know what you we''re thinking in the middle of a fight but be careful next time." My father said as he helped me get up.
Hey goddess are you there ?

Okay wait a sec. " Mom ? Can I go play around a bit ? "
" Sure sweety, just don''t go too far from the house, we are eating soon." Mother responded as she went into the house
" Thank you." Now to find a spot.The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
I walked straight into the forest while making sure to let marks around, after a good Fifteen I found a small clearing.

Okay, let''s do this. I aimed at the rock I was sitting on.
" Fireball !" A ball of fire created itself in front of me and launched itself towards the rock, a loud explosion resounded as the rock exploded and I was blown back by the explosion

"Ah...Aha...ahahaha ! I did it ! I used magic ! Did you see that goddess ? I blew up that rock in multiple pieces " I laughed out loud as I looked at the place where the rock was, nothing but a small pile of rubble was left. And Again I heard some *ding* sounds

" Coda are you okay ?! I heard an explosion ! CODA ?!" I didn''t have the time to admire my new skill before I heard a panicked scream coming from behind me, looking back I saw my mother looking at me, Ah guess she heard the explosion and came looking for me.
" Hey mom ! Look what I can do !" I got up quickly and aimed at another rock.
" Fireball !" The spell exploded on the rock and again only a small pile of rubble was left. I saw my mom with wide eyes and her mouth opening and closing again.
I didn''t react fast enough as my mother hugged me and jumped around.
" My son is a genius ! He can use magic !" She cried as she hugged me tighter.
" Mom.... I can''t breath...
Later I learned from the goddess that only 1/1000 people can use magic and that I should thank her for her blessing making me able to use magic
