Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: Memories and the Spirit of the Sword

But can you tell me what you remember? Infiz asked.

- Stop pestering him. He barely came to his senses. Elizabeth tried to steer the conversation in a different direction.

- I will tell. Elaine said.

- But those memories are very painful, do you still want to remember those feelings? Elizabeth asked.

- I don't want to, but if we are a team, we must not hide a secret ?! It's also not a secret. If you also held that sword, experienced those feelings. Elaine said. When the others heard about the secret, they blushed a little because the four of them shared a secret.

So Elaine began to tell what he remembered from the moment he grabbed the sword. He told how he ended up in space among the stars, how a dying star appeared in front of him, its death, the appearance of a black hole, a huge deadly pressure until he lost consciousness. He also said that when he came to, they all lay unconscious in different places. He also said that he was able to calm the sword, and did not know what happened after he lost consciousness, but he learned that the sword became obedient, and there is a spirit of the sword inside. But he was a child, but scared, and he was afraid of him. Therefore, he said that the sword is now harmless.

- So you're saying that you don't remember what happened when you were in a deadly situation, but temporarily lost the ability. How do you know that you temporarily lost the ability? After some thought, Priscilla asked. Something came to her mind. Not only to her.

- I just feel. My power is still in me, but it's like she's sleeping. Elaine said looking at his right hand, in which the fist closed and opened.

"I think I know why you can't use your power. Remember you said that you didn't pass out when everyone else did after we were transported to this world. Infiz asked.

- Yes, I remember, said Elaine looking at him.

- The conclusion is this. You yourself said that at that time you were saved by your strength and also you awakened him in mortal danger. Here is the same case. Just one point in reverse. Your strength still protected you. But instead of waking up, she fell asleep. Infiz said his guesses.

"Are you saying that my strength is tired?" Elaine asked incredulously.

- Yes. Instead of Infiz, Elizabeth answered.

"So if my strength has fallen into dormancy, then your strength can also fall asleep." Elaine drew a different conclusion. Everyone got depressed. They knew that if during the battle their forces fell asleep, they could be in mortal danger.

- Hey, someone explain in human language. Jack screamed. The others looked at him and sighed. Then they started to explain.

Suddenly, Elizabeth remembered something.

- Team, you should notice that we have an innate power. But we can barely survive here. Each of us was seriously injured more than once. What if those students who graduated with us. Some of them don't have special powers. The status screen doesn't work. Elizabeth said with a serious tone.

Suddenly, everyone again understood the value of their forces. Now they will be more careful.

- Okay. These are things for tomorrow. And now Elizabeth. To be honest, you are the most useful, but also the weakest part of our team. Elaine said looking at her. Elizabeth dropped her head knowing this, and clenched her hands into a fist.

- HOW DARE YOU CALL MISS ELIZABETH WEAK. Infiz shouted looking at Eli.

- Enough Infiz. Elizabeth said.

- But... Infiz could not continue as he heard.

- You want to disobey me Infiz. Elizabeth said, still looking at the ground. She herself knew that she herself was weak in the group. But I heard the following words of Eli.

- Therefore, you should take this sword.

Elizabeth lifted her head and looked at Eli who held the sword and handed it to her. She asked in surprise.

- Why me?

First of all, it was you who drew that sword. By right it belongs to you. Secondly, the name of this sword is "Sword of the Dying Star". From the name it is clear a hundred it is connected with the stars like you. So your power of stellar healing will complement this sword. It turns out that the sword was damaged. And the last reason to be yourself. Saying this, he handed the sword to Elizabeth.

Elizabeth took it. The others looked at her with approval in their eyes. And also because she was the leader of the team.

"I also forgot to remind you, inside the spirit of the sword is a bit special. Elaine said with a smile.

Elizabeth was very interested in this. She concentrated her power on the sword and suddenly found herself in front of that dying white star once more.

The white star also stood ready to die. It exploded just like the first time. But instead of a black hole, white light appeared there. The white light moved quickly towards Elizabeth and stopped in front of her. The distance was great. But Elizabeth could see that ball of white light. Inside, the outlines of a small child were visible. Elizabeth didn't know how to start a conversation. So I said the first thing that came to mind.

- Hi.

There was no answer from the lump of light. Elizabeth saw that the light wasn't going away, but it wasn't coming either. She thought for a while and decided to go to her herself. It was difficult for her to move where she hovered. Therefore, although with awkward movements, she slowly moved towards the light. After a while, Elizabeth finally got to her. When she wanted to touch her, the ball of light disappeared very quickly under her hands. She moved towards Elizabeth, and without touching him began to circle her body.

And flew away. When Elizabeth flew away, she seemed to hear the laughter of a little girl. Elizabeth saw that the ball of light flew away, and thought that it was afraid of her. But because of that laugh, she eliminated that thought. Moved towards the light again. When I got there, the same thing happened as before. The lump of light swirling around her again flew away with laughter. This happened a few more times.

- Stop running. Look, sister has something delicious.

Elizabeth seemed to have lured a small child, and from this she was ashamed. But there was no other choice. But as she beckoned the ball of light, small stars began to circle around her hand. Because that was her Star Healing power.

Elaine had previously said that he couldn't use his power here. She could not understand how she used. Suddenly, the name of this sword came to mind. At this time, the ball of light saw these stars and the silver starlight, it was enchanted by them. Elizabeth saw this and began to lure her. When the ball of light approached Elizabeth seemed to feel something and immediately moved away from her. Elizabeth was unable to grasp this light. She was tired of chasing a ball of light. So I came up with something. She began to head in the opposite direction from the ball of light. The lump of light did not expect this. It wanted Elizabeth to chase after it. So I started walking at a fast pace to attract her. As the ball of light approached Elizabeth, Elizabeth whirled around and was able to grab the ball of light into her arms. Svetoch did not expect this and could not dodge. Elizabeth hugged the ball of light with a smile until it began to shine brightly. The form of this light began to change before our eyes, taking the form of a ten-year-old girl with white hair and eyes the color of the night, which seemed to contain all the stars of the sky. This girl laughed very loudly in Elizabeth's arms.

In the outside world. Only a few minutes passed. Elizabeth opened her eyes and looked at the team with a smile.

- But how? The most impatient was Jack. He wanted to know what sword abilities she had awakened.

- Everything is awesome. Learned several sword techniques that are far superior to those we learned in our world. She also gave a name to the spirit, didn't she, Starlet?! Elizabeth said with a smile while looking at the sword in her hand. The sword itself slowly flashed a white light as if in agreement.

The others smiled at this.

- Oooh, how I want a sword like that. Give me a touch. Jack said with envy looking at this beautiful sword without bad thoughts. He held out his hand.

- I do not advise ... Before I could warn you, Jack had already touched the sword. The blade of the sword immediately disappeared from Jack's hands, but felt something cold on his left cheek. He looked back a little and saw a white sword that could turn blood red. He swallowed

- I wouldn't recommend it. She doesn't like it when anyone approaches her except me. Everyone looked at the sword and swallowed. Especially Jack.

- Okay, let's get some rest. The rest will continue tomorrow. Priscilla said. And everyone agreed with her.
