" What do you mean get out of here? Are you guys so higher than us mortals that you don't need our help with anything?" Noah smirked feeling the desperation in Nova's voice.
" Urgh.."
" What? If you don't want to tell me than don't bring it up. I will get injured as many times as I want-"
" Fine. I will tell you." Noah was happy that he was able to get something out of the fucking brat. For someone who always act so high and mighty they were quite moody and erratic to say the least!
" A contract is a sacred ritual. There are many types some of which would give one of the party dominion over another party's life."
" You mean slave contract? Don't tell me you hassled me into signing a slave contract!" He was instantly alarmed hearing her say mention something so dangerous.
"No, normally it would be the case since I am superior to you in every aspect."
" There we go again." He rolled his eyes not that he had any here.
" I am! Why is it so hard for you to admit that I am above you? Wasn't it a concept from where you came from?"
" Have you been looking into my memories again!?" He knew she couldn't do that, at least that's what she told him during previously.
" We are binded so I have some leeway. Beside it's not like I am digging for your secrets like how you have a ritual of looking at naked woman watching screens and jerk-"
" Stop! I get it!"
" Ah Ah Ah~ It was something along this line right?"
" Fuck you! Can you quit using that fake voice?" He was reminded about her vocal choice which sound awfully familiar to a japanese pornstar that he liked when he was a teenager.
" It's nothing to be embarrassed about."
" I don't want to hear it."
" Is this better?"
" No! Absolutely not!" For some reason, her voice went high in pitch awakening his dark history that he tried to hard to forget. He didn't it would come up in such a obscene way. It wasn't illegal or anything but it's the culture that permeated through his search history which would definitely get him cancelled if anyone on earth found out about it!
" Can we please move on from this or I will die of embarrassment!"
" Alright, so I was saying that there were different type of contracts. What we have is sort of put us on the same level so none of us have a leg over another. It was only possible because you are an anomaly. If anyone else from lower realm try to bind themselves to higher life forms they would either have to give up their freedom or beat the stronger party into submission through their wits."
" Did that ever happen?"
" There are some instances in the future. There are some people alive but its a slim chance for you to ever encounter them so don't worry about it."
" Right, I also want to ask one more question."
" Yes?"
" Does that mean we share some powers? What if I die what would happen to you?"
" If you die then I will go back to where I belong." For some reason, Noah could tell that she was hiding something. It was only an intuition but he could tell there was more to the story.
" What about powers?"
" Of course there are some benefits but you are not strong enough to utilize it. If I put even 0.0000...." she went one and one with the number before finally stopping with a '1'," You whole body and soul would shatter."
" Doesn't that mean I will never be able to use that power?" How long would that take him to get strong enough to utilize even fraction of her powers? Isn't it same as about a millennia of painful and torturous training? granted that's how one get strong which he didn't even know.
" Everything will be revealed slowly for now, our talk will soon end."
" Why?"
" Because you are about to wake up."
" Wait! How do I call you again? You mentioned something about hibernation.." Samuel felt his consciousness starting to float again. The pain he was feeling prior to fainting was slowly returning.
"It will take some time. In meantime, don't try to get injured again. I am only telling you since I don't want you to die on me." He knew his dead would be bad for Nova because she kept reminding it about it.
" Fine, I will wait for you but you have to give me more answers next time."
" That's up to you. Meanwhile, I will look forward to see how much you will grow."
His body faded and there was only Nova left floating inside the dreamworld. She was a glaring ball of light when he was around but just when he left, it started to turn crimson constantly losing it's brightness.
Her angelic white hue reduce to a dim light red, which stick out like a sore thumb in the white room. She became the most darkest point in the room phasing in and out of existence as she whimper in pain.
" I can't believe I became so weak. It was really a close call." She was clearly hurt and suffering but her pride didn't her reveal it to Noah. She began to channel her energy slipping back into hibernation to heal her injuries.
