Pov Kira:
I was sleeping comfortably, but suddenly my instincts warned me of danger, I moved following those instincts and put my hand in front of my face, half a second later I felt the impact on my hand and held the fist that was going to hit my face and open my eyes.
"It's about time you woke up!" (Diana)
"Leave me your muscle woman, I'm the great Byakko, if you continue to be rude to me I will slice you with my claws." (Byakko)
"Did you bring this thing into the room by any chance?" (Diana)
"..." (I)
As soon as I opened my eyes I could see a white Cat with black stripes being lifted by the back of the neck by Diana, I looked at her better and noticed a claw mark on her face that was bleeding a little, I could even see a vein in her face. her forehead that was pulsing so hard it felt like it was going to explode any minute.
"What's going on here?" (I)
"Help me, Kira, this muscle woman wants to hurt me, all dogs are rabid." (Byakko)
"Who are you calling a dog?" (Diana)
"You dare call a Wolf-Man warrior a hound!?" (Diana)
"Maybe I should use you for my breakfast." (Diana)
"You're lucky I can't use my powers, otherwise I would cut you to pieces and then roast those pieces with my lightning bolts." (Byakko)
"Can you two shut up for a moment and explain to me what's going on?" (I)
After managing to calm this noisy duo I finally knew what was going on.
Looks like this cat is my hired spirit Byakko, he finally woke up and was lying on my side of the bed when Diana kneed him in his sleep while being angry at being woken up with a knee Byakko slashed Diana's face with her claws, Diana was furious and grabbed him and punched me angrily to wake me up thinking I had brought an animal from the street into the room.
I had to explain to Diana that this was my hired spirit and gave an HP potion I brought with me to Diana to heal her face.
Sigh
"I think we've sorted everything out now, right?" (I)
"So this weak Cat is your hired spirit?" (Diana)
"I'm not a Cat, I'm a Tiger." (Byakko)
"I'm not weak either, a lot of my powers were lost during the spiritual rebirth, what's left of my power is sealed for now, until Kira can deal with it." (Byakko)
"Calm down Diana, you two were wrong, let's end this fight here." (I)
"It's a pleasure to finally meet you Byakko." (I)
"It's good to be awake again." (Byakko)
"Why do you look like a Cat?" (I)
"As I said before, most of my powers and memory are lost, this is a new spiritual body, it will take me a while to get used to it, I won't be able to go back to my normal form until you who are my contractor be strong enough." (Byakko)
"You talked before about being reborn, what does that mean?" (I)
"It means I died, my soul was almost destroyed, but luckily a fragment of my soul entered an ancestor of yours and I was jumping from generation to generation to you." (Byakko)
"When your master gave you power and healing I took the time for my spiritual rebirth, this is a dangerous technique for the spirits, but it was my only chance." (Byakko)
"When the process of spiritual rebirth began what was left of my soul was destroyed and a new one was born of it inheriting my memories and personality as well as what was left of my power." (Byakko)
"And who were you before you were reborn?" (I)
"I do not know." (Byakko)
"Who hurt and nearly killed you?" (I)
"I do not know." (Byakko)
"Why were you in my ancestor?" (I)
"I do not know." (Byakko)
"..." (I)
"This damn Cat doesn't know anything?" (Diana)
"What are you complaining about now your dog woman?" (Byakko)
"Can you guys go at least a few minutes without fighting like two kids?" (I)
"..." (Diana/Byakko)
So much to think about, I don't know what to do with Byakko, I think I'll be talking to him for a bit today to get to know each other better, so I can learn more about him and also get acquainted with him.
"What are you going to do today Diana?" (I)
"I'm going to Wilson at the Guild of Commerce to finalize the purchase of the mansion." (Diana)
"And what are you going to do today?" (Diana)
"I'll stay here, I'll spend a good part of the day here in the room talking to Byakko." (I)
"I'll also take a look at the information on the nobles who have been acting out of the ordinary lately, see if I can find out if any of them have a cursed item." (I)
"I hope you can find out something else, I'll get ready and leave then." (Diana)
Diana got dressed and left, as soon as she left I changed my clothes and sat on the bed with Byakko floating in front of me lazily.

Diana Pov:
I leave the inn and go straight to the Trade Guild, I was in a bad mood because of that damn Cat, even though the HP potion completely healed the wound on my face I'm still mad, all I wanted was to have a barbecue with that Cat.
As I walked to the Trade Guild I calmed down imagining all the ways to kill that Cat, as soon as I arrived I go up to the third floor and go to the reception, I find the same cute boy as last time.
"It's nice to see you again Diana, how can I help you this time?" (receptionist)
"I want to talk to Wilson, he asked me to come back today." (I)
"I will notify the Guild's deputy master, please wait on one of our sofas." (receptionist)
"I'll wait to stand." (I)
The receptionist went up to the fourth floor and took only five minutes to return.
"Mr. Williams will see you, please follow me." (receptionist)
I'm once again guided by the receptionist into the Commerce Guild's vice master's lavish room, as soon as I walk in to find Wilson sitting on one of the sofas in the center of the room, he gets up and nods to the couch in front of him as he talks to me.
"It's a pleasure to see you Diana, please have a seat." (Wilson)
"Thank you for escorting her here, you can go now." (Wilson)
"Excuse me sir." (receptionist)
After the receptionist leaves, I go to the couch across from Wilson and sit down.
"Would you like something to drink Miss Diana?" (Wilson)
"You don't happen to have a beer, do you?" (I)
"A good merchant must always be prepared to receive any guest, I'll get two glasses." (Wilson)
Wilson gets up and goes to a cupboard with glass doors that I hadn't noticed before, he opens it and I see several bottles of different colors and shapes, he takes one of the big ones and two glasses and brings them back.
"I hope you like strong beers, this is one a Dwarf friend gave me as a gift." (Wilson)
"I haven't had a Dwarf beer in years." (I)
Wilson fills both glasses and gives one to me, I take it and drink a little at the same time I open a big smile.
"That's a good beer." (I)
"I'm glad you liked it." (Wilson)
"Now that your mood looks better we can do business." (Wilson)
"Was it that obvious that you were angry?" (I)
"A good trader has to know how to read the emotions of others." (Wilson)
"Okay, let's talk about the mansion now." (I)
"I already have all the documents." (Wilson)
"I have two copies of the contract for each one, I also have a deed that just needs to be put in your name and finally I have a magic contract." (Wilson)
"Alright, let me read it so I'll sign it." (I)
I check the four documents and see that everything is as agreed two days ago, I sign everything and return everything to Wilson, only one idiot signs something without reading it first.
Wilson takes the two copies of the contract and the magic contract and signs it, then he puts the two contracts one on each side of the magic contract, then he prays to the God of Commerce Felix.
"I, Wilson Williams, ask the God of Commerce to be a witness to this deal, that he be the judge for the one who breaks this contract." (Wilson)
The magical contract glowed brightly and began to burn with white fire, then from the flames, two symbols flew each to a copy of the contract marking the two, the symbol represents the God of Commerce Felix, the symbol is a white parchment, a pen of black feathers crossed with a golden sword and a scale symbol drawn on the parchment.
"With that, neither of us can break the contract now, otherwise we will be judged by the God Felix." (Wilson)
"This is your copy of the contract and the deed to the mansion." (Wilson)
Wilson hands me the deed and one of the copies of the contract with the symbol of the God Felix, the other copy stays with him.
"Now the mansion is officially yours." (Wilson)
"Let's talk about reforms now." (I)
"You said you were going to talk to a construction company about the renovations." (I)
"The company is the most famous and also the most expensive in the city, it was the same company that built the mansion, as they are Dwarves they won't have a problem with the miasma." (Wilson)
"Did they agree to reform?" (I)
"Yeah, I also showed them the renovations you asked for, they were excited about some of the things you asked for." (Wilson)
"How much is the budget?" (I)
"With the materials, labor and the environmental conditions, everything was worth seven thousand gold coins." (Wilson)
"Alright I accept, how soon can they finish?" (I)
"A month and a half." (Wilson)
"This can't be done, does it have to be done in a month?" (I)
"This will be more expensive if you want it in a shorter amount of time." (Wilson)
"I pay another thousand gold coins." (I)
"(The master wants the house ready to live in after the third prince's mission, so I guess he shouldn't mind spending a little more.)" (I)
"With such a generous amount I think there should be no problem with your deadline." (Wilson)
"I'm glad it's all sorted out." (I)
"Then I think they'll want to start tomorrow." (Wilson)
"I'll leave everything in your hands, I'll be out of town for a month." (I)
"I can do this for you as I will receive a good commission for the sale of the mansion and for brokering the renovations." (Wilson)
"Thanks." (I)
After finishing a few more points I leave the Trade Guild and head towards the Adventurers Guild to say goodbye to Mari, I want to go back to the master tomorrow morning.
