Chapter 9: Ch 9: Strange Dream

*** Kiara ***

Aleizar suddenly fainted... I was using my Aura Appraisal the whole time so I knew just when she started feeling unwell... There was a hint of confusion within her when she took a step back and swinged her sword, then a hint of frustration and more confusion when she managed to land an attack on Jhasque, but the frustration wasn't towards the fact that she could only injure him slightly... Nope it was the opposite... Then when her blade was throwed back, I could feel her emotions mixed with pain... When she swinged her blade while it was in mid air, I could feel that she was striked with a lot of pain... There's no way it would have been an attack from Jhasque... I could feel his confusion! There was a bit of frustration a few moments later from Aleizar... The aura around her is putting me in pain too... Damn it... Why is she in pain...? I tried to tell them to stop but she suddenly fainted.... Nothing bad happened to her right..? Wait why do I even care..? Well sure, I guess I should care about her since she's now part of our party but... She's still under suspicion... But suspicion for what exactly..? Ugh I don't even know anymore... I just hope that she wakes up soon...

*** Aleizar ***

I felt like I've been in that void for a very long time... But at the same time it felt so... Short... I couldn't really guess how much time I've spent in that dark void... All I know is that, I would like to avoid anything similar to that experience in any way possible.

I opened my eyes... Ugh... My head still kind of hurts... Then I noticed a screen on the edge of my vision, it then expanded and went to the middle of my vision... It said--

[ Congratulations!! You have Unlocked The Following Skills

Flame Magic

Abyss Magic

Void Magic

Electric Magic

Gale Magic ]

Wow, five skills-? If my memory serves me right, these are superior versions of a few well known Elements...

Flame is the superior version of Fire Magic, Abyss is the superior version of Dark Magic, Void is the superior version of Space Magic, Electric is the superior version of Lightning Magic, Gale is the superior version of Wind Magic, damn, straight up superior skills huh-?

I looked around, then I was greeted by a Golden Blonde sleeping beauty right beside me... Well not literally, there was a gap between us but still... We were... Kind of beside each other.

(Aleizar)"Actually, when I was napping at that time, she was the first one I saw... Although I checked my newly acquired skills first this time... She's technically still the first thing I saw right?"

I chuckled, it's kind of hilarious how she managed to claim the seat of a few of my firsts in this world in a short amount of time... I mean-- she's the first human I saw, technically my first friend, not gonna include Erebus to that count... Actually, are we friends? Yeah I think me and Kiara are friends... She's also the first thing I saw in my first nap as a human here... Ha... I won't be suprised if she ended up taking most of my firsts in this world...

I just looked at her, since I have nothing to do... Should I go back to sleep? I don't even know how long I was unconscious... Probably not that long?

Just as I was trying to find out how long I have been unconscious, I heard footsteps, I didn't bother looking at who it was since Jhasque and Elliot are the only people here, not counting me and Kiara who is infront of me.

(Elliot)"Aww~ how cute~"

(Jhasque)"Hmm... She's still not awake... Im beginning to get worried now"

(Elliot)"Aha, well about that... Your already awake aren't you, Aleizar?"

Looking at them, I asked "How long have I been unconscious"

(Elliot)"Well, you lost consciousness around lunch time, and woke up the next day morning... I don't really wanna count"

(Aleizar)"Oh"

(Jhasque)"A-are you ok? What happened? Why did you faint?!"

(Aleizar)"Uhh..."

Thought acceleration!! I need to think of an excuse!!

(Aleizar)"Probably has something to do about my lost memories...? I mean... The first thing I see after waking up is an notification that I've acquired new skills..."

(Elliot)"May I ask, what are these skills?"

(Aleizar)"Flame Magic, Abyss Magic, Void Magic, Electric Magic, Gale Magic"

(Jhasque)". . ."

(Elliot)". . ."

Both of them just fell silent, staring at me... Then Kiara woke up.

(Kiara)"Mhm... Ah, Aleizar your awake... Wait a minute... Your finally awake!! What happened? Why did you loose consciousness?!"

(Aleizar)"Probably has something to do with my lost memories... I mean, after waking up I was greeted by some new skills... And ah, I guess your sleeping face aswell-?"

Kiara just stared at me with a blush on her face... A few moments later she asked, (Kiara)"What type of skills?"

(Aleizar)"Flame Magic, Abyss Magic, Void Magic, Electric Magic, Gale Magic"

(Kiara)". . .how?"

(Aleizar)"I don't know--"

(Kiara)". . . alright, you don't have to tell us if you don't want to. . ."

You are reading story I am tasked to serve the demon race at novel35.com

(Aleizar)"Ehe. . ."

(Elliot)"Are you blessed by the Goddess Ashgard or something?! That's just way too random"

Then I fell silent... Wow... Spot on... I am blessed by her, I do have something that says Blessing Of Ashgard!!

(Kiara)"No way... Seriously-? Well... That kind of explains your weird Status... I've read that Those Blessed by the Goddess have something weird in them..."

(Aleizar)". . . I'm not weird. . ."

(Elliot)"Public Opinion says Yes you are, first you have an lost skill named Mana Manipulation, then you got 5 advanced magic skills for doing who knows what..."

(Kiara)"Then your status that says none"

(Aleizar)"Ugh..."

(Jhasque)"Then the fact that you injured me despite having lower stats that I am... Our duel isn't the reason why you actually fainted right?"

(Aleizar)"Yep, but still, I'm not weird"

(Jhasque)". . ."

[I don't know about that]

Even you?!

(Kiara)"Ah well whatever... Im going back to sleep... You guys can wake me up when... We... Are.. departing--"

She then fainted, her head landing on my shoulder...

(Aleizar)"Kiara?"

(Elliot)"Don't wake her up... She stayed up for a long time last night waiting for you to wake up..."

(Aleizar)"Hmm? Why would she..?"

(Jhasque)"You should ask her... Anyways I'm gonna go out and prepare everything for our departure."

(Aleizar)"Departure?"

(Elliot)"Were gonna continue on traveling towards Blythe... You can rest with Kiara for a while, we'll wake you up when it's time to go"

(Aleizar)"Hmm ok.."

I patted Kiara's head a bit and placed her to where she was sleeping earlier... She looks cute to be honest.

I could hear Elliot chuckling when he left... I wonder what's that about? Ah well.

I layed down to where I was laying down earlier... Hmm... Mind aswell go to sleep just as suggested...

*****

A sky that looks similar to a sunsets, an endless field of grass... What type of dream is this? Looking around, I see some type of white structure, it looked like one of those places in isekai where noble ladies do their tea parties at the garden... I walked towards the said structure, there wasn't much, just a chair with an woman with the same hair as me, just a bit longer and actually looks like a night sky with the little stars, oh and she also had both Beastmen and Elven traits... She has ears above her head which kinda looks like one of a dog but at the same time no, I couldn't see if she had a tail... And on the side of her head were two pointy ears similar to an elf... She was sitting down looking at the scenery, I couldn't see the said woman's face since she wasn't facing me... But... For some reason, I can feel a connection to her...

"Aleizar... I apologize for the past 16 years... I couldn't even find a better way to make it up to you... Hopefully you won't be that mad when the truth has been revealed"

Her voice was angelic... Very pretty... And... It felt calming... 

"Who... Are you...?"

"You will find out in the future... But for now... All I can tell you is my name..."

"My name is... Ashgard Ashura Imperia"

As soon as she said that, she turned to face me but... I can't see her face..? It feels like it's blurred... Ugh...

As soon as she faced me, the dream ended... And I woke up...

(Aleizar)"What a strange dream..."

(Elliot)"Oh? You woke up? Well that saves me trouble... Anyways it's time to go, could you wake up Kiara for me?"

Ah... Right, were departing for a place called Blythe...
