Restarting Life In Another World - 102 3.14 A good morning
“Aaaaah!”
I woke up when I heard a loud cry. It was hard to tell just by the voice, but it definitely felt like Nina. I quickly rushed out to see what happened, and outside Nina standing in front of Ronald’s bedroom.
She had a shocked reaction on her face, so I quickly rushed up to her and looked inside. Inside, Ronald had woken up, but his appearance was completely different. His hair had turned blue and one of his eyes was red.
There were blue lights floating in the air around him and he looked like a completely different person.
I closed my eyes and tried sensing the mana around him. When I did that, I noticed that those blue lights were spirits and his body itself looked like half-spirit, half-human.
It somewhat felt like the spirits were being symbiotic to him. They were helping him in collecting mana and that mana was manifesting those spirits. He somewhat looked like a vessel for those spirits.
When I was looking at the spirit, everyone else came rushing there. They probably woke up because of the cry too. When I saw Miss Lilith among them, I looked at her for the explanation.
“Well, this was unexpected,” She said as she walked inside the room.
Following her, I too walked in. Everyone else just stayed outside looking at everything that was happening. Princess Eliane and Arica were helping Nina calm down.
“Hey Nara, bring that bird of yours here,” Miss Lilith said after observing Ronald up close.
Even though he noticed us walk in, he wasn’t doing anything in response. To me, only his face looked the same. Everything else about him, including his soul, looked different.
“Okay, you better have a good explanation of what’s going on though,” I replied as I walked to the window and opened it.
“Flare.”
When I called her name, Flare came in and sat on my shoulder.
“Master, this looks like the wind spirit,” Flare said after observing the blue lights carefully.
“Okay, but what’s happening? And what’s going on with Ronald?” I asked. I could sense that it was a spirit, but it felt incomplete.
“I think it’s trying to take over his body. I, myself have never seen this happen before since spirits disperse if they are not completely summoned. But, in this case, it looks like something is preventing the wind spirit from dispersing. So, instead of trying to disperse, it looks like it’s trying to make Ronald’s body his vessel.”
“Is this something harmful to him?” I asked. Normally, if it was an evil spirit there was a chance that it would cause harm. But since this one wasn’t, I was uncertain about what kind of changes it would cause to Ronald.
“I don’t think it will be harmful since Wind spirit has a calm and humble personality. He will probably be merged with Ronald after agreeing on a contract.”
“Man! That was reckless. What if an evil spirit had possessed him instead?” I asked. I couldn’t help but feel irritated when I saw that smirk on her face.
“Well that didn’t happen, did it? Anyways, I hope the boy comes dominant in this case.”
‘Man, everything is so easy for her.’
I realized it was pointless to continue so instead of trying to talk things through to her, I contacted flare telepathically.
[Flare, is there a way to communicate with the spirit that is trying to possess Ronald.]
[Yes, there is but I suggest not intruding their conversation. Wind Spirit is wise and knows that unlike ours, human lifespan is limited, so he won’t try to take over his consciousness. Though he will try to test if Ronald is worthy of being his vessel or not.]
That made sense but I couldn’t help but feel worried. I looked towards others and they too had a worried expression in their faces. It was only then that I realized what Miss Lilith was trying to do.
“He will be alright. I talked with Flare and she said the wind spirit is wise and helpful. So, I don’t think he will try causing him any harm.”
“Yes, there is no need to be worried. If push comes to shove, I will use my authority as a divine spirit to suppress him,” Flare said in a confident tone.
Everyone looked a little relieved when they heard that. It took me a while to realize that I was making everyone panic by acting so worried.
I caught Ronald’s shoulders and slowly laid him back on the bed. It looked like it will take a while before his internal trial to end, so it would be a good idea to leave him alone till then.
“Everyone let’s give him some space. All we can do is wait for him to recover, so it might be a good idea if only two of us stay here.”
“Let me and Marina stay here then. You girls can play with Nara downstairs,” Arica said with a smile. As always, she turns out to be the best one when it came to causing and calming panic.
“Yes. Please let me or Miss Lilith know if you observe any change in his condition.”
After I said that, Arica and Marina entered the room.
“Okay guys, take care of him. Flare, please stay with them,” I said after which Flew from my shoulder to Marina’s.
“Soo! Soo!” Lucy, who was sitting in Marina’s hair, was trying to chase Flare away. But Flare was paying no mind to her.
Miss Lilith and I then walked out of the room. Everyone, except Sistina and Eliane, was still in their nightdress so they probably just woke up because of all this.
“Everyone go get ready. We will start the training early,” Miss Lilith said in her usual loud voice.
“Yeah, let’s go and get ready. We are not making things better by staying here like this,” Princess Eliane said to which Princess Anna nodded.
Even though Sistina still looked somewhat unconvinced she nodded saying “Okay”.
“Nina, please take care and rest for a while,” I said since she still looked shocked by what she saw. I could understand her since I might have been in a similar position if I was the first one to see something like that happen.
“Yes, I think I will be fine,” She replied.
Princess Anna and Princess Eliane then went to their room. Following them, Nina and Sistina walked towards Nina’s room. Nina still looked a bit unwell so having someone with whom she can talk about things would be good for her.
After the girls left, Miss Lilith was also about to leave. But there was still something that I wanted to tell her, so before she could leave, I used this opportunity.
“Miss Lilith, I don’t think I will be coming on the training for a while. I am working on my magic control so I will be training on my own for now.”
“Hou! I was going to tell you that. Honestly, there is barely anything that you can learn from me at this state. So yeah, try doing a few things yourself.”
After saying that, Miss Lilith walked towards her room, and following her, I too walked towards mine.
