Chapter 15 - The memories of the Cerins (pt.3)

The Fourth's reaction to Nine's materialization was momentarily similar to the Third's, however she quickly dismissed the idea as a folly and looked at the younger woman who had the potential for both a pretty face and figure if not for that trifling curse hanging over her head.

Nine bowed respectfully towards the young woman who for some reason gave her chills.

" so you aren't dead yet huh?"

Her low and seductive voice spread out like ivy vines and ensnared Nine's consciousness. Four snorted inwardly as she saw Nine fall for such low class spell and wondered whether she should bother passing down her memories and powers.

Infact, wouldn't it be better to just take over the body and live another life?

She thought. but the second it was put into words a blinding pain occurred in her mind and she felt the spell forcibly broken by the jade star.

Nine snapped out of her daze and looked at The Fourth Cerin whose face was contorted with pain.

" Fine! Fine! I won't do it!"

This voice was high pitched and screechy, to complete opposite of the previous melodic tone.

Four couldn't help but glare at Nine as she apportioned blame onto the poor youth and quickly grabbed her hand, planning to quickly get it over with.

Nine lived through being born to a medical doctor's house in a small village and learning those skills. She also went through discovering this odd power that let her heal people much faster than the so called 'proper way' of healing did.

She lived through being outed to her father when she refused to sleep with one of her customers as well as being smuggled out of the village by her grandmother the day before she was to be stoned.

Nine lived through the pain of watching her grandmother be caught and prosecuted as a witch as well as the odd delight she got from burning that village down.

She remembered telling down in a village far away and making memories counteracting the illnesses she spread until she was misunderstood and eventually stabbed through the heart with a spear.

The mind numbing pain was the last thing Cerin experienced before being pulled back into current times.

Four scowled at seeing the pitying look on Nine's face but could not foster any major negative feelings as an after effect of the soul merge.

Instead of dispersing any life changing advice or even helping Nine assimilate into the memories she simply scribbled down a prescription and thrust it into Nine's arms.

" Use this the second you get back to reality. The reason you are so sickly is because of that pesky constitution of yours. If I still had a corporeal body it would take me but a second to fix it it but as I don't, you'll have to use a potion to do it yourself."

Before rushing out of her own room.
