Chapter 4 - Academy (2)

I've just sat down for two hours straight and took a nap, picking a relic was going to be an important decision and I haven't had enough of sleep time. After waking up I walked around the room, to say it was a room would be belittling it. From outside it looked like a normal room, but from the inside, it was endless, was this a space element? WOW! Another element, there must be so many more elements that I don't know.

I've been walking for a while now, but none of the relics seemed to call out to me. From where I was standing there was an ax shaped relic, a spear, a bow, etc. I continued browsing for a while until I bumped into an invisible wall. Tank! I bumped my head. Eh? What's with this? I felt the wall and I went around it with my hand. There was an invisible four-sided wall inside the endless room. Knock Knock! it was hollow, I continued to feel around the wall until I came to what felt like a handle and pulled it. An entrance was revealed leading downward, at the end of the stairs was a room full of huge weapons. I walked towards the end and at the end, it should be the most important usually right? It was a pot... a POT!

The pot seemed to call out to me. WHAT! a pot? Was it because I eat a lot, was it calling me fat? It's not my fault I like food a lot. I was not going to take this pot, I would be made fun of if I did. I turned around to look at the other weapons. Suddenly I felt something hit my head, the pot had flown up and hit me in the head. Ouch... Why are you hitting me!

The pot flew around in annoyance, it seemed like it was mad at me for ignoring it. Eh. I'm bleeding and then suddenly there was a bright light and I felt a connection to the pot. Wha...WHAT!

I'm contracted to a pot? a pot! Come here you dimwit, let me spank you! The pot flew away from me.

" Master you have to forgive me"

Who.. who said that?

"It's me, Master, it's not my fault you ignored me, in fact, I'm actually very hurt"

It was the pot speaking, " You ruined my chance to get a good relic, you pothead!"

" Master! How could you, I know I'm not a good relic, in fact, you can say I'm the BEST relic. I'm a space relic, you can store and grow stuff inside my dimension, aren't you happy?"

A space relic, interesting I should be happy " but I wanted a cool looking weapon, not a pot."

" Master you shouldn't worry about this kind of thing, you are a multi-element user, you can contract many more weapons."

" What! How many elements?" I asked curiously

" All of them, if not you wouldn't be able to make a contract with me Master"

A cheat! I got a cheat, I am the CHEAT! This was too good to be true, I couldn't help but question my own existences, what price would I have to pay in return?

For this kind of situation isn't it better to be low-key? The tallest tree always gets knocked down first without a strong foundation I know it's going to be important for me to not tell anyone else about my abilities. I would have been happy with just one element, in my past life I showed off to much and many people didn't like me and tried to make my life harder for me.

Since I could contract with more relics I was going to do it now, I didn't want people to find out about my pot relic, it was so embarrassing. After walking around for a while I decided on a jet black scythe and continued to walk out of the invisible room when a few other weapons flew at my head again. Not again! this time I ducked and escaped from pain. Floating in front of me was a fan, a gauntlet, and a Katana.

" Master take them, they wanna go"

" Lord, please take them along" Even the scythe decided to speak out.

" I can't carry them all out with me!"

" Master, I can put them in my space." After a few pleas here and there I had to contract with the rest of the relics.

" Princess, thank you," said the fan, someone finally recognized I was a female. I was going to treat her well.

" My thanks Madame," Said the katana

The gauntlet decided to call me Master just like the pot.

I decided to hide everyone else but the katana, since it was the simplest looking one. The pot transformed into a marking on my wrist and took the other weapons with it.
