They turned around and looked at all of the deep blue mana dissolving into the air, creating a scene that looked similar to a deep blue sky.
『Stellaris.』
They created a Stellaris orb that grew larger and larger as it sucked up all of the blue mana in the air.
With that, they lowered their staff and continued their journey into the plain.
As Nova kept on watching, he suddenly realized that he wasn't watching the robed individual through their eyes anymore.
As they got further and further away with Nova not being able to follow- whether it be from shock or physical incapability, the scene slowly faded back into black.
….
Nova woke up slowly in his bed, amazed at the dream that he had just witnessed.
「...These visions… are they connected at all?」[Nova]
He blinked a few times, trying to comprehend it.
「...Reischneid? Asmodasiah?」[Nova]
Reischneid answered almost immediately.
「Hey, Nova. Are you wondering about Seed Visions?」[Reischneid]
「...Yeah. What are they?」[Nova]
「They're visions that bestow you powers, to be blunt. I feel like there is some other answer, but with these seals, I can't really tell you much more than that.」[Reischneid]
「...Oh. Where has… Asmodasiah been?」[Nova]
「...Well, she hasn't said anything since you've last talked to her. Her presence is here, but extremely weak… I'd say… she must have either suppressed her power or used it somewhere. Either that, or she left- but don't count on it, with the property of the contract you've formed with her..」[Reischneid]
Nova tried to think of where she went, but couldn't find any ideas.
「...Sir Fluffles! Are you alright?」[Nova]
A couple of whimpers could be heard from Nova's mindspace.
「...Sir Fluffles was hit by a strong attack… need rest, Nova. Sir Fluffles will come out to play once he's ready… please don't forget about Sir Fluffles' meals, though….」[Sir Fluffles]
Nova suddenly realized that Sir Fluffles had most likely not eaten since yesterday- well, he hadn't even eaten since yesterday.
「...I'm not too hungry, for some reason...」[Nova]
He decided it was probably better to go and get some food anyways, so he got up.
...or so he had tried, but…
「...Something is grabbing onto my arm.」[Nova]
He turned to his left to find Freyana clinging to his arm, which was enclosed between her arms and her chest.
「....A...」[Nova]
He felt his face turn immediately red.
「...Sorry, Sir Fluffles… I'm not sure if I can move...」[Nova]
「...Nova…. Sir Fluffles is counting on you...」[Sir Fluffles]
Nova broke out into a cold sweat.
「...If I must.」[Nova]
He slowly pulled his arm out from the top, but she suddenly grabbed onto his arm even tighter.
『,,,N..?』[Nova]
He tried to move his arm, but to no avail.
「...I've noticed this for a while, but Freyana is crazy strong!」[Nova]
He almost felt like she wouldn't notice if he tried to pull away at his strongest… but-
Once he took another look at her face, she was staring at him while pouting.
「...Okay! I need to suddenly evaluate every single thing I've been through throughout my entire relationship with her… and fast!」[Nova]
He kept on thinking of what the problem might have been, but eventually gave up.
『...You left the castle without me!』[Freyana]
『...Oh.』[Nova]
That was the problem.
『I… uh… Was taken back, by Reagan.』[Nova]
『That doesn't make sense! They only let me go home today! Why would he abduct you from the castle out of nowhere?!』[Freyana]
She frowned and continued to pout.
Nova thought what he was saying was completely plausible, but she didn't seem to buy it.
He didn't want to worry her about him going off and getting himself in danger, so….
He gently scratched under her chin, which caused her to make strange purring noises.
『Fuuunununu...』[Freyana]
After a solid half a minute of her making these noises, she suddenly let go and ran into the corner of the room, still facing him.
『E-E-Eh…?』[Freyana]
She covered her beet red face, while crouched in the corner.
『Did… I… really make that noise…?』[Freyana]
Nova smiled, covering his mouth and laughing silently.
『A...AAAAAAAH!』[Freyana]
She quickly ran out of his room and disappeared down the hallway.
『...Hehe. That's my girl.』[Nova]
He got up, slowly slipping on some casual clothing from his closet.
『...Hmm… maybe I should avoid the cafeteria for now?』[Nova]
「What do you feel in the mood for, Sir Fluffles?」[Nova]
He turned the doorknob, slowly exiting.
「Steak! You promised!」[Sir Fluffles]
「Haha! I suppose I did.」[Nova]
He shut the door to his room, leaving in the direction of the town.
