The room that was dark slowly brightened up as the morning sun arrived through the windows.
I sat on my original position for the entire time and was quite surprised that it was already morning.
!????
Morning huh....
A long while had already passed after I talked with Aria-sama who left and came back, I also thought about a lot of things to spend my time during that vacant time when Aria sama is gone....
But surely enough.... Thinking while staying still in the same place will make me feel bored as time went by...
I then looked towards Diana who was still sleeping in front of me.
Is she going to wake up now?
Based on my observation so far, She would always wake up shortly after the morning light passes through the window.
"Nnn....."
As I continued watching Diana, she then made a sound while her eyelids slowly opened in front of me.
"Nnnnn.....D-doll-san?...."
With a sleepy voice that I found cute for some reason, she called out to me and stretched one of her arms towards me.
??.....
She then pulled me closer to her like a person on a bed hugging a teddy bear or a doll would look like....
Well technically I'm a small doll and this is a common gesture for a person having a doll will do right?....
[Morning...]
"nnn..."
Another moment has passed with her just embracing me, after that, she slowly got up into a sitting position.
[You awake now?.....]
"Yes..."
She nodded and gently rubbed her eyes while still yawning.
[Did you have a nice dream]
"Hmm? dream?"
She then pondered for a bit before giving me a blank look.
"Can't remember hehe"
[Ohh...]
She just smiled and shortly after that, she then caressed my hair as if she was combing it.
Hmmm.....
[Want to talk for a whole day again?]
"Yes!"
She replied happily. Surely for her. having a talking partner is much more enjoyable than being silent for years.
[Let's see, what should we talk about.]
I then tried thinking of topics that I can use for our conversation.
We then talked for a while when suddenly I heard footsteps behind the door.
*Thud*
hmmm....This sound.
"Ohhh"
Diana who is used to hearing these sounds turned her head towards the door.
"Food...."
[Hmmm?.]
Food?, is she hungry?...
Not long after that, the door opened and a man brought in a tray with a plate of meat and water.
He just went straight towards the table and placed it there before his head toward us.
"Eat."
He then turned around and wait straight to the door.
I watched him close the door behind him as he step outside of the room.
Eat huh.....
Just like the other servants who brought Diana food, that is the only word they say after bringing the food here.
Isn't this just similar to an owner who orders their pet to eat when the food was served in front of them..... Really.... Those fools...
"Eeep!."
Huh??...
Hearing a strange sound from Diana, I saw her clothes slightly trembling in front of me.
Wait huh..... Did I?.... did I unconsciously did it again?..
Remembering what Aria-sama told me a long while ago,
I had the ability to release fear whenever I get angry or so.
I quickly turned my head towards Diana who was again trembling.
[Sorry.... I didn't mean to get angry again.....]
"U-unnn....."
She slowly calmed down and the two of us stared at each other with nothing to say.
[...]
"..."
[Let's just eat.....]
Staring at each other seems to be ackward so I just casually recommend her to eat.
"Yes..."
She nodded and put me beside her before she stood up and walked towards the chair.
Her body was still slightly swaying but she did sat down and prepared herself to eat the food brought to her.
And for me I just watched her again as she finished her food.
What should I cook for her in the future?.
This is just sudden thought but a desire to cook her some food appeared from me watching her.
There are many types of food that I can cook but having so many ideas makes it a bit difficult to choose.
Oh and also.... there is the matter regarding the ingredients..... I still do not know wether this world has the same ingredients like we do in the previous world.
But I do hope that some of the ingredients are the same so cooking can be more easier.
"I'm done."
[Hmmm?....]
Hearing Diana's voice, I shifted back my attention to her and put the thoughts of cooking away for now.
"How did doll-san spend time when she doesn't have anything to do??"
[Me?..... Hmmm let's see.....]
I usually play with my phone or computer from before... I also read books like novels and other stuff on the internet too.
There is also a site for watching videos, which I always do since it really entertains me.
And well..... For the things that I do that doesn't concern those online stuffs. I draw and learn music to spare my time.
Sports are also a thing that I do from before, but I only do them when I really need to....
Now that I realized it, most of my time from my life was spent on using those gadgets...
They really became a common thing for me huh.....
Back to Diana's question, I will definitely not say anything about those gadgets since this is a place very different from my past.
[I read books and play instruments....]
"Playing instruments?"
[Yes, I had the urge to learn some instruments before.]
Mainly it was the guitar and the violin...they are kind of hard at first but I got the hang of it after some practice.
Well just like this, we spent our time talking about random things.
As time passed it was already night and it was time for Diana to sleep.
She once again embraced me and closed her eyes.
I then told her goodnight and she just chuckled while also saying good night. And she then fell asleep after some time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
It was already past midnight and just like always, I just sat there doing nothing except moving my gaze around.
By the way, I can see that my control over my body became a bit much more better that before, but doing action like jumping or running, I don't think I can do that yet and I don't want to try that now since I'm on the bed and it will only wake up Diana.
So with nothing to do, I decided to call Aria-sama to continue our conversation from before
.
[You don't need to call I'm already here you know~]
Hmmmm!!?
I was startled as she suddenly spoke to me. I was about to call her and but it seems that I won't need to do it since she was already here.
[fufufu~ I'm getting used to your calls so I can already predict it ~]
Ohhh... Well I always contact her in this time of day so I guess it's predictable....
[So anyways, we are going to talk about your humanoid form right?]
Yes, I nodded and relaxed myself a bit more.
[Want to try it activating it now?.]
!!?
Now?.... Not later?.... I mean, can I already use it at this moment?.
[Yes~ but first, you should get off the bed for now~]
Right....
With that being said, I quietly made my way down with Aria-sama assistance by making me float.
I then walked away from the bed and stood straight waiting for Aria-sama's next instruction.
But then, I remembered something making me a bit hesitant to change form.
Uhmmm Aria-sama.....
[Hmmm, yes??.]
I changed my gaze towards the door with a slightly anxious feeling.
There won't be anyone coming here later right?....
From I've learned here, that door usually opens in the middle of the night followed by a servant who is holding a lamp.
Just by the looks of it, I assume that they might be the night patrols that walks around and check Diana if she was still here.
At this time, the door didn't opened yet so it might open later, it may be dangerous if someone caught me....
Hearing my reason. Aria-sama released a chuckle and then reassured me.
[Don't worry~ I will tell you if there are people coming here~ well I will also give the skill of alertness and observation around later in the morning~]
Ohhh I see....
[So~ are we good to go now?.]
I inwardly sighed in relief and then nodded.
Yes, I'm ready.
[Good~ now remember you form when you saw yourself in the mirror with your new appearance~ and just say the word "change form."]
Got it.... But wait.... Do I need to say the word 'change form'..... Saying it makes feel like..... A magical girl... Uhmmmm.....you know...
[Fufufu~ Do you find it embarrassing?~]
I nodded.... It's kind of embarrassing for me when there is a person seeing me say that....
[Ohh are you saying that you will say it if no one is looking ?]
No! that's not what I meant either!
Guhhhh.....she is teasing me!
[Fufufu just kidding]
....
Not fair.....
[Well you can either say it out loud or just in your mind~ the chant is only for the visualization about the spell you are going to use ~]
*Sigh*
I guess I will do it anyway..... So with that being said.... I closed my eyes while imaging my form from last time....
When I finally got my appearance in my mind, I said the word "change" and the next that came after that was a slightly odd feeling like I'm becoming larger...
I opened my eyes and found that the suorrounding furnitures and items was not that huge anymore like before....
I raised one of my hands that is wearing a glove. I then slowly removed the glove and took a look on what's hidden.
Even though the room was dim, the light tone of my skin makes it like it was reflecting the light of the moon.
And also looking at the fingers on my hand. I can see the lines or the joint as I moved it.
Really just like a doll....
I then wore my glove back on and then silently walked around the room, and once I was done moving around to test my body, I then felt a bit satisfied...
[You are really eagerly waiting for your body huh~]
Of course I am.... Having a small body has its movement or actions limited you know....
[Fufufu~ now now, let's move on to the next thing~]
Next??... I curiously tilted my head while having a blank expression on my face.
[Your weapon~Did you forget?]
Ohhh right....
If I recalled, Aria-sama did said something about my body being a weapon from before right?.
Now that I'm this form. I would like to see it for myself on how this thing works.
[Okay, first is to imagine what kind of weapon you want while also thinking that it was already a part of your body~]
Remembering the image of a mantis that I've thought before, My expression became weird and I chuckled inwardly.
Okay.... That's enough.... Let's do this properly.....
Clearing the mantis out of my mind.... I changed my imagination of my hand into that of a straight blade...
It may be a common image but having a simple one can be a good start for this.
[Now just like from before, just chant the word and you will then change it form~]
Following what Aria-sama said, I chanted "Change"and my right arm then turned into a blade.
Seeing my hand turn into a blade makes me widen my eyes in suprise.
The blade looks very sharp, and it seems like a double edged blade from my assumption.
[That blade is made with one the strongest and durable metal here in this world~ consider it as one of the gifts given by me~]
Okay?....well back to this body modification thingy, Can I change the equipment in my hand depending on what I want?
But that sounds like a cheating ability if that is by chance correct...
[That's right~ at this point, you might want to consider yourself as an combat doll than that of a normal doll~]
Combat doll..... I don't know why but that sounded like a cool thing for me....
Ohhh wait, I can change back my hand back to normal too right?
[Yep~ just do what I said to you from before again~]
Okay...
I chanted "change" again and the blade quickly turned back into a hand.
Now that it's back to its original appearance, I turned around again and looked at the sleeping girl, I walked towards her and stretched my hands towards her head slowly.
I was thinking of patting her head but Aria-sama then surprised me. Making me pull my hand back.
[Someone's coming.]
Wait what!?
I quickly looked around to see where I could hide.
But since there are only few furnitures inside this room, Finding a place to hide was difficult.
With no thoughts appearing, I then decided something based on my extinct... I quickly rushed towards the other side of the bed and crouched...
Judging from the location of the door, this position is hidden between the point of view of the person if he is just looking from the door.
And since its dark, I think I have a better concealment here...
Not long after that, the door was slowly opened and a man holding a lamp stood there....
He didn't stepped inside the room, he stayed at the door and only glanced towards the girl who is sleeping on the bed....
I watched him while also being careful not to be seen completely.
Back to the man, perhaps not noticing anything strange, he turned around and closed the door again.
I think he is gone.....
Once the door was closed, I sighed and stood up...
I can't really let my guard down... Well only a few more days then I can properly relax....and that's after me and Diana escape from here....
I changed my gaze towards Diana and sat down beside her....
Just a bit more okay.....
I raised my hand again and putted it near her head, I then used my hand to gently stroke her hair while also being careful not to wake her up....
Now that i have this skill, I can be able to hold you and pat your head. And I can now also embrace you if you are feeling down.
I can now be able to protect you...
I smiled gladly knowing that I can now take some actions for her.
[Fufufu, you didn't forget about me still being here right?]
Hmmmm!??
.....
Surprised and a bit embarrassed, I stopped moving for a short moment but resumed again shortly after.
*Ehem*
I know you were there...I didn't forget
[But it looks like you did forget about just now~]
Nope I didn't, That's just your imagination Aria-sama.
[...Really?]
Yes.....Really.
[Fufufu]
Anyway.... What should I know about next?
I quickly change the topic... And now we are back to our original subject.... My other skills.
