Seeing Diana who fell asleep gave me time to go contact Aria-sama regarding about some stuff that I heard from a while ago
[Aria-sama....]
I don't know if Aria-sama is available at the moment but I just called out just to see if she is there.
[You called? ~]
!!?.... She is there...
[Of course I'm here~]
...
She answers way too quickly for a busy person.....
Well anyways....
[I heard something from Diana a while ago....]
Since Aria-sama is here, I should go straight to the point now.
[Hmmm~ what is it? ~]
Diana told me that the surrounding got colder when I got angry.
[Ohhh you got angry?]
I mean, how can you not get angry if you heard her story.
[Fufu, tell me about what happened then~.]
With her asking about it, I then explained to her about why I got angry.
I told her about how Diana was treated like a dog with the same food that you don't even know to how many times she was already given that from before.
[Ohh that one huh...]
Aria sama just replied as if it was nothing new.
*Sigh*
Still....
I really feel sorry for Diana.
She doesn't deserve to be treated so lowly like this....
Those humans are really cruel.... Why did Diana ended up with the likes of them?
She is a normal girl you know..... She has feelings.... Aghhh...
Aria-sama just listened me without anything so I assumed that she wanted to let me finish on what I want to say first before she speaks again.
I continued with the things I want to say, and when I was about to finish, Aria-sama then interjected with something that I don't expect.
[fufufu~ aren't you such a sweet girl~.]
...
I just went silent completely after hearing Aria-sama say that.
Me a sweet girl?.... No.... That can't be....
[it's true ~]
why do I feel like I being teased again by Aria-sama.
No maybe it's just my imagination.
I then heard Aria-sama giggle in my head.
Okay it's not..... She is definitely teasing me I'm sure of it.
[Fufufu~ you are so cute~]
Please stop.... I think I'm getting embarrassed now .... Can we just go back to our original topic...please....
[Very well~, *ehem* so going back to our topic, the change of temperature must be caused by your emotion~]
Is that really so?... Is my emotion that strong to be able to change the temperature that quickly....or Maybe something like a skill that can able manipulate the temperature of my surrounding?.
[Quite close but its not .... That change of cold temperature is caused by something else~]
What do you mean? Can you please explain to me?
[What you did earlier was very different~]
...different??
[Do you know the feeling of fear?...]
Fear.....the only idea that I can think of regarding on what you feel is definitely being scared or terrified.
[There is also the feeling of fear when confronted by an person with an strong desire to hurt or kill~]
To hurt or kill?.... Wait now that she mentioned it, I did kind of thought about hurting them because of their treatment towards Diana.
[Ohhh and one more thing~ you have a passive ability that makes you release "fear" and the intensity of that is depending on your mood~]
A new passive ability huh.
Well this new skill is only used for inflicting fear to others.... Are there any more proper use for this skill?
[It depends on the situation~]
Well looks like there is nothing more that I need to ask regarding this skill.
The next question now is.
Do I have new skill or spell that I can use later?. A skill which I can use to attack rather than defend.
Hmm wait...
Now that I noticed it.... I still do not know anything about what attribute do I have...I'm pretty sure that the attributes plays an important role here.... Let's say for example, I casted a spell like bullet. That bullet would either carry or be infused by an attribute element such as the four basic Element which is Fire, Water, Air and Earth... There may be also other elements but I will just focus it on the four common basic elements.
There is also the visualization when casting a spell, having a good grasp of your attribute will make casting easier.
[Well you don't really need to think about that since you are special~]
Special?.
[Yes~ you are able use all the elements..]
All of them!?
Hearing that I can use all the Elements makes me kind of impressed towards myself.
[But I want you to refrain using magic spells especially offensive spells for now fufu.]
Ehh why??
I was stunned for a short moment, Aria-sama then quickly started explaining before I start thinking.
[Since you don't have any practice with how to control your magic yet, It may backfire when you use them without proper handling~]
Ohhh....since she said it this way then I can completely understand it.
[But if you are really thinking about practicing it then my advice for you is to wait until you escape from that place...I'm pretty sure that you don't want to practice magic there especially when it may expose you~]
She is correct about that.
But what skill will I use then?
If I can't use magic then what am I going to do to defend ourselves during our escape...
[Your ability to fight comes with the humanoid body. there is a skill called "Body modifier". That skill is just basically using your body as a weapon...]
I Then looked down and pondered about it for a moment.
A weapon huh.... How should I use my body as weapon?
She said that I can use it on humanoid form, so maybe it has something to do with a human proportion.
The weapon that I can think of when it comes to the body is the nails... There are monster who use the nails as a weapon right? Ohh wait, there is also the hair right, From what I heard, hair is also a strong material.
[Fufufu~ you are close but the correct answer is that you can use your whole body. For example, we can make your arms turn into a sword or scythe.]
!!?
I then started imagining it. If I turned both of my arms into a scythe then I would definitely look like a praying mantis.
Hahaha....That is kind of funny to imagine
[Fufufu that's true~]
But if I thought more about it, I think having a body that is actually a weapon actually sounds nice.
I can also quickly react when there is danger. Not to mention having a hidden weapon like that can be very useful.
[So yeah that will be your skill, also you have other special skills that you can use~]
I wanna hear them, it might be something interesting like the "body modifier" skill.
[Fufufu~but that's only if you fulfill the requirements~]
Ehhh??... Requirements?.... Are they task that are very difficult to accomplish?
I mean, things like this is usually difficult right?.... Like fighting a dragon or a demon lord, or maybe like doing something very great that will affect the whole world?
[Nope it might be more simple than you think~The task is very easy~ it's something very simple that you don't have right now~also you might fulfill it without you noticing it~so like always, you don't need to think about this so seriously~]
O-okay?....telling me not to think about it makes me more curious.
[Fufu~ by the way what's your plan today?]
Nothing much yet....to be honest... I don't feel like I can do anything at this moment, my body doesn't move like how I want it to move and I think I don't have that much to do here except talking.
Thinking about it, this is the time where I learned how life could be without a cellphone or any electronic gadget on my side.
It's pretty....boring.
When I was bored before, I would use my phone to play, watch or linger around in social media.
But now that I don't have that, passing time seems to feel like an eternity.
*Sigh*
Anyways, how are we going to escape from this place?.
[You should explore this place first then find an exit and run away safely.]
Well that is easier said than done...
[fufu~ just do whatever you want to do~I will just watch over you.]
Okay
[Oohh I nearly forgot just now~ you will be able to use your humanoid ability by tomorrow~]
Huh!?.... Did she say tomorrow?
[Surprised?]
I was caught speechless for a moment. I thought that the ability to change form will arrive after a few more days or so. Did Aria-sama did something again?, didn't she said that it will take time for me to use that.
[fufufu~ I putted it on the priority list of skills that needed to be transferred early~ Besides, you need it too right?~]
I nodded and looked at the girl sleeping in front of me.
Of course I need it. It's a good thing that I can use it early since I can find myself some time to get familiar with it.... also one more thing.
[Hmmm?]
Having a body will let me be able to hug Diana to cheer her up when she feels down, so of course I would really want to have this skill as early as possible... And...
I lowered my head while looking at the bed sheet below.
...I kind of want..... To at least help Diana by doing this simple things....
As I said that inside my mind while being embarrassed, I could hear Aria-sama who is giggling inside my head.
Please stop that.
[Fufufu~it's really refreshing to see you caring for someone ~, you don't really do this on your previous life right?~]
Caring huh.... I didn't do it that much before... I was really busy focusing myself to improve my grades and earn achievements from the past after all.... Well in the end, It was just a worthless struggle.
And when it comes to socializing with people, well, I don't hate it.... But I also didn't like involving myself with the others too much.
And I guess I was alone for most of the time because of that.
I sighed inwardly and continued staring at Diana, I then slowly raised one of my arms up and move my body forward for a bit.
...
So far....
She is so far to reach.... I then drop my hand while pouting to myself.
Having a body that moves properly is really helpful.
As I was thinking about things like that, I noticed that Aria-sama didn't made any comments.
Is she still there?...hello?
[Hmmmm oops sorry I was called by another god~ anyway, like I said you can use your humanoid body by tomorrow~and regarding about the skill that will help you modify your body.... I will tell you that tomorrow too~]
Is that so?.... Wait.
Just now... You said something about another god calling you?
[it's just some minor business~]
A minor business?. I wonder what kind of minor business is that.
[It's much better for you to not know it~]
Ehhh why?, is it something very confidential?
[Hmmm... Kind of~, well this is a something you don't need to know~]
Ohhh.... I want to hear it but since Aria-sama said to not ask anymore then I will just leave it there.
[Good girl~well it seems like I already need to go to take care of that business~]
Ehhh, you going already?
That's a bit....
[Hmmm!?? *Ehem* yep~ it's my job so I really need to go~]
I see.....
I don't know why but hearing her telling me that she will need to go makes me feel a bit down.
[Fufufu~I am really sorry but I will surely come back later, I promise I will be back~ do your best today okay ~]
I simply nodded again and imagined Aria-sama leaving inside my mind.
...
...
What now.....
There are no more voices of Aria-sama....it seems she is away now..
I sighed again and proceed watching Diana's sleeping face in front of me.
I guess I will wait here again then.
