"W-What with this power?! It feels like my Beast Aura evolved to a whole new stage! I-I think I ranked up to a higher Physique Tier too! W-Wait, am I tier 5 already?!" Zack cried in excitement. His aura surged like a giant, green-colored bear with a sharp golden horn. It began glaring at us as if it had a consciousness of its own.
"Hmm, this is certainly nice." Said Celeste. "I probably am very close to Tier 5 Physique now, for sure, hehehe… And my Beast Aura finally developed." Celeste's Beast Aura was represented as a swarm of black and red bats, with a gigantic bat queen controlling them all, menacingly glaring at us from behind her with her sharp fangs and her not so appealing-looking face.
"A swan! I've got a swan as my pet aura!" Said Mist excitedly.
"Squeak! Squeak!" The White Swan within her Beast Spirit began flapping her majestic white wings, until Mist started floating in midair.
"Uwawaaaahhh!" She cried. "Please don't lift me like thissss…!"
Mist seemed to be having fun, albeit it as a tiny bit too chaotic, maybe? Well, she was still happy.
"Uooh… W-What is this?" Celica wondered, her Beast Aura resembled a ghost more than an animal. A tall ghostly lady with long fingers, which was grabbing onto the threads she used to move her golems. "Amazing! I've got a new friend!"
She seemed excited, her own Phantom Aura, as I will call her unique Beast Aura form, was already boosting the power of her golems.
However, unlike everyone else, Zephy had a different reaction.
"Hm? Nothing happened to me…" Zephy said, looking confused.
"Eh? But it should had worked a bit at least?" I wondered.
"Nope, nothing happened big sis…" Zephy felt disappointed.
"I-I'm sorry! I didn't knew it would work with you… But it should at least a bit. Unless… you require even more materials to awaken your own Aura?" I wondered. "Perhaps your potential is so big that one Elixir won't do. But it's not like I can make many more, sorry."
"No, it's fine! I do feel a bit stronger, all my Mana was recovered too so I feel all nice and ready!" He said, acting humbly.
"W-Well, I am glad it at least worked a bit." I sighed in relief, giving him a head pat. "You feel alright?"
"Yeah! No worries!" He said with a cute smile.
My little brother was just too adorable.
I ended hugging him and giving him kisses on his cheek.
"You're way too cute!" I cried.
"Hehehe, that tickles big sis!" He giggled adorably.
"Geez, and then you say you don't spoil your little brother?" Laughed Zack.
"H-Hey this is just normal for siblings!" I said while pouting.
"Yeah!" Zephy said, giving me a kiss in my cheek… And then glancing back at Aquarina with a cocky smile. "Heh…"
"G-Geh…" Aquarina felt slightly jealous but contained herself. "It's her brother… It's her brother…" She was containing herself quite well, I guess.
Meanwhile…
Ding!
[The [Quest System] is happy you're a nice girl.]I think you should take a look at
[You Have Completed The [Special Quest]: [Help Your Friends Awaken Their Powers And Grow Stronger!]
[Well done! You've now made all of your friends much stronger. However, it seems your little brother has so much potential that a simple Elixir won't be enough for the little rascal. Perhaps in your journey to come, trying to find some ingredients to hasten his growth would be ideal.]
[You Have Received Bonus Rewards For Completing The Quest In Less Than 12 Hours!]
[Completion Rewards: [500000 EXP] [250000 Shared EXP] [Divine Essence of Blazing Flames (A Grade)] x1]
Ooh? I got a strange item. It resembled a red colored crystal with a small flame flickering inside. It emanated a divine power, so I swiftly placed it inside of my System's Inventory, directly connected with Glutton's stomach while I checked the information…
-----
[Divine Essence of Blazing Flames (A Grade)]
A Divine concentration of Blazing Flames which had been crystalized. The still blazing flames can be seen within the crystal which is warm and unleashes a powerful aura of divinity.
By absorbing it, it is possible to strengthen all Fire-Attribute Skills, gain thousands of Fire Attribute Runes, and even have the chance to Evolve Fire-Attribute Skills.

Ooh, interesting… This is rather nice, kind of like the Farmer Elixir I drank before. Oh well, for now, I guess I can take it easy and relax for the rest of the day, I am quite tired…
I decided to take it easy as I walked into the garden and rested over the grass. My friends started sparring a bit, some were practicing magic, and a few were practicing their Beast Aura powers.
Zephy in specific was doing the exercise my mother taught him, of consecutively conjuring a low level spell and then transform it into a higher level spell.
I think this training is based in what I did as a kid, but because Zephy lacks a Skill, he cannot do it too instantly, and requires a tiny incantation each time, although it is becoming much faster.
And me? Well Aquarina was spoiling me quite a lot, letting me sit over her thighs while she caressed my head.
Honestly this was really sweet. I couldn't had asked for anything more. Tomorrow my grandma was coming so I was feeling a bit nervous but taking it easy here is good.????????????????????????????????.????????????
While Aquarina was singing a relaxing song from the Amazon Tribe using their own language, I slowly felt a bit sleepy.
The shiny sun, the blue sky decorated by white clouds, the calming breeze, the company of friends and the person I loved…
I'm only twelve but I already have everything I could ever ask for in my life.
"Yawn… I wish moments like these could remain forever." I sighed.
"I wish too." Aquarina smiled.
Her beautiful blue eyes looking at me from above were quite staggering…
"I'm grateful for having you at my side."
"S-Sylphy… Me too!"
She quickly gave me a sweet kiss before I ended falling asleep while resting over her thighs… Ahh, they were so soft and warm…
