[Chapter 89 Comnts]
Theo and the others jumped off the ship. Since they were about two hundred ters above the ground, the fall took a mont.
"Aurora!" Theo called the only student who was still awake.
"I can handle Jayden!" Aurora assured him while pressing her chest. "Co forth and beco my wing, Elkiseis!"
Theo was amused by what Aurora was showing him. All of a sudden, a huge pair of wings appeared on her back, stretching for over ten ters.
Her body was enveloped by white light as her aura changed. There was an ethereal atmosphere shrouding her as if she had just transcended to a whole different being.
"Oh! Is that your Spirit?" Theo comnted in amusent.
"Yes, Elkiseis," Aurora nodded while flapping her wings to break the fall. "Teacher, you..."
She worried because Theo hadn't done anything to slow down his fall, but soon after, Theo actually bounced in the air.
"Eh?!" Aurora widened her eyes in surprise. The bounce was quite high, as if there was a trampoline in the air. The bounces repeated several tis as Theo descended to the ground.
Aurora followed suit, but before she could say anything, Theo dropped the twins down and turned around. "Incoming attack!"
"Wha—" Aurora was startled and saw a black light coming at high speed. "Ansthor hasn't given up?!"
Unfortunately for her, it was too late to draw her bow to stop that attack.
On the other hand, Theo had waved his hand, forming a thick shield in its path.
But surprisingly, the black light passed through Theo's shield.
"Wow. The spirits are more unique than I first imagined," Theo smirked as if feeling challenged. Aurora wanted to say, 'it wasn't the ti for that,' but Theo had actually continued while taking out sothing from his pocket. "How about this then?"
What Theo tossed turned out to be a talisman. When the black light touched the talisman, the latter released a blinding light that diminished the darkness itself.
It completely dispelled the black light before ultimately losing its essence and falling to the ground.
"It's effective, huh. Physical objects can't touch it, but it can be extinguished with other things..." Theo looked up, finding Ansthor standing behind the gap.
Unfortunately, the best ti to attack had passed. Theo pointed to the back. "We'll retreat in this direction and see whether the ship turns around or not."
"Teacher... Did you just use talismans?"
"Haha. It was a souvenir from Haruka's world," Theo chuckled while grabbing the two kids. "Anyway, let's go!"
"Yes," Aurora nodded. They were on a grassy plain, so it was better to retreat toward the wooded area to avoid being chased.
They rushed to the north direction while keeping an eye on the ship. Fortunately, the ship didn't turn around and chase after them.
"Sorry, Teacher. I was the one who invited you to this place, but..." Aurora wanted to say sothing, but she had no proof. The matter was also complicated, and she had no explanation.
"You can reflect later. For now, you need to know that we're stranded here. The only people you can trust right now are and these three, understood?"
"Yes, Sir," Aurora nodded with a solemn expression. She still felt bad.
There was no reason for Ansthor to attack them. In fact, Ansthor didn't look like soone who had been affected by madness. So, why would Ansthor try to kill them?
As soon as they reached the wooded area, they finally dropped their guard a bit. Theo asked to change the gloomy atmosphere. "Do you know the way to our original destination?"
"Yes," Aurora confird while checking the other students.
"They don't have any problems, but it will take longer for them to wake up," Theo said while placing his hands on their heads to check the flow of their essence.
Aurora bit her lips. As expected, she should have stayed on the other side and not brought them to this place. Even then, never in her wildest dream would she get attacked.
In the past, she didn't seem to have any enemies. So, there was only one possible reason for this ambush.
"He might be related to my uncle," Aurora hit the tree out of frustration.
"Instead of that, why don't you tell more about the spirits like yours and that guy? It's clear that the spirits are unique... as unique as my illusion," Theo asked.
He couldn't help but rember how he couldn't even hit or block Ansthor. If he had to fight against him or anyone who had similar abilities, it would be troubleso since there were limited things he could do.
Of course, he wanted to talk about this to change the topic, not letting his student bla herself the entire ti.
"Considering our situation, I think it'll be fine to talk about it," Aurora nodded. "I've told you about the spirit as an entity, but there are four types of spirits: Lein, Mien, Foln, and Trein.
"What I have is Lein Type Spirit, and Ansthor has Mien-Type Spirit. Lein Type is a kind of extension of our bodies, using the essence to amplify our power. Mien Type is a spirit that transforms our body completely. Ansthor has a shadow spirit that turns himself into a shadow, turning his body and power to almost nonexistent."
"I see. So, that's why you have wings and the talisman works against Ansthor," Theo nodded. The spirits were indeed unique, but he never thought they would be this unique. He couldn't help but rember the previous chapter's comnt and muttered inwardly, 'Don't tell , the author can't nerf , so he just made the difficulty harder?'
"Foln Type is a tool type spirit, it can beco a weapon with special power or sothing. And Trein is a unique type spirit that gives you a certain ability like controlling weather, natural disasters, and other things," Aurora continued with her explanation.
"Then, is a person limited to one spirit?" Theo asked.
"In most cases, yes. Your body usually can't contain more than one spirit, but the spirit itself amplifies your power greatly that you don't even need a second spirit."
"Still, you haven't used the spirit to scout or sothing?" Theo asked, recalling the gas in school. She would be able to replicate what Haruka did after all.
"Unfortunately, no. The spirits can't leave our bodies," Aurora shook her head helplessly and placed her hand on her chest. A white light shone dimly, forming a cross symbol on her chest. "This is my spirit. It has beco a part of my body."
Theo nodded. "Alright. So, how do I fight those spirits?
"I think you don't have any problems with Foln and Trein types as long as you understand a bit of their special power. On the other hand, Lein is an extension of one's body, so depending on the person's weapon, you can engage them in close-quarter combat or a ranged fight. As for Mien Type, you need to fight them fully with your essence."
"Essence, huh? I created a shield earlier, but it couldn't block that black light."
"That's because you created that shield to beco a physical object."
"I strengthened the essence and hardened it, so it was considered a physical object… Then, illusion and other things should be enough as long as I didn't change the property of the essence itself." Theo nodded in understanding. "I get the gist of it. One last question, how do you get a spirit?"
"That's..." Aurora thought for a mont before sighing, realizing that she had no other options currently. "The twelve races have created altars to gather spirits. If we go to those altars and perform the ritual, you can call upon a spirit. The closest one would be the royal capital, but going there will put us all in danger."
"Indeed. Well, I don't really need it right now, so we can actually go straight to the capital city."
"If we go there right now, people might stop us or an even bigger conflict will occur since Ansthor must have expected our arrival. I think it's better to change our plan a bit."
Theo smiled. The previous suggestion was Theo's way to test Aurora, but it seed that she had improved. "Good. So, where should we head?"
"We will head northwest. We'll go to my aunt's residence and ask for her help. Her territory should also have the altar... I'll do my best to request its usage."
"Alright. We'll go after these guys wake up. So, you can get so rest and carefully think about what has happened earlier."
"Yes, Sir." Aurora looked exhausted due to how much the situation had impacted her.
Theo, on the other hand, was also troubled, not because of this matter, but because of the spirits.
'Seriously, the author is changing things up. I have gone to the Exorcism Realm and experienced the talismans there. It seems that he is going to alter that world a bit, no, I probably should visit that place again later. If the author has changed it to an unbelievable level that the previous information has beco irrelevant, it will be a plot hole. I hope that the readers can fla the author for it!'
Theo looked down, thinking, 'As for the Sword and Magic Realm… it's quite advanced, but even a high-ranking Marei is not as strong as I predicted… Or what? Is the author going to make them look weak on the surface, and they are way stronger underground? Is the author a hollow-earth believer or sothing?'
Theo could only let out a long sigh, realizing that the author could actually twist the story the way he wanted with all kinds of bullshits.
'In any case, I'm going to find the plot holes and take advantage of them. I guess this will beco my personal mission every ti I go to another world.' Theo smirked. 'It's on, you author. Throw your best shot at , I'm going to overco every single one of them.'
