"So what exactly happened? I want to know in detail this ti."
Now that the Principal was gone, Alex decided to ask Mira what happened one to one.
He was interested in hearing the details of the exact process of how he died, and more importantly the process of how he had sohow co back to life.
***
"So it's like that…"
After Mira spent the last 5 minutes explaining to Alex what had exactly happened, the room returned back to silence.
Mira had explained to Alex what had happened to himself.
But she had left a lot of things out. Like how she felt during this whole ordeal.
He could still see dried tear stains on her cheeks, clearly indicating the emotional distress she was put through.
Especially when she could only watch helplessly as Alex died…
But things were okay now, as he had reassured her already.
In fact, other than this, there was sothing else that he found very interesting from Mira's explanation.
She had actually called the Principal over to get his help, to which she wouldn't explain to Alex how she had sohow gotten his number, no matter how hard he pleaded.
But even more interesting was the fact that even the Principal was injured slightly when he attempted to help him out of the flas.
He almost couldn't believe this when Mira first said it, but she was adamant in telling Alex that she hadn't lied.
"So, can you explain to what happened to you?" This ti it was Mira asking Alex.
She knew Alex had to have so inkling to what was going on.
He acted oblivious in front of the Principal, but Mira knew Alex too well, he had to have known sothing about this, and now that she was alone with him, she was curious to find out.
Alex wanted to speak, but he pulled himself back before any words left his mouth.
Instead, he grabbed his communicator, which he had thankfully taken off and placed aside, sparing it from being burned to a crisp like everything else he had on him at that ti.
He typed a few words in the communicator, and showed the screen to Mira.
'No privacy.'
Was all it said.
He could have said this out loud, but then he would seem suspicious to any prying ears.
He was sure that there would be many people silently listening in on his conversation with Mira at this ti, especially since the Principal had spent so long in his dorm.
They wouldn't dare spy on the Principal himself — that was a death wish.
But nothing stopped them from spying on the two students he was with.
Not to ntion the fact that the Principal himself was probably keeping a close eye on Alex and Mira after he was witness to that mysterious phenonon first hand.
'Maybe we could use the sa thod as last ti.'
Mira typed into her own communicator.
'Oh right!'
Alex had almost forgotten this was an option.
He could use another soul contract like last ti to bring them back to that private space.
With this in mind, he asked the system about this.
[No.]
Was the answer he received back though.
"Fucking piece of shit!"
Alex broke the silence in the room with his curses, unable to hold them in.
He didn't know what was wrong with the system recently, but clearly there was sothing wrong with it.
First it acted so rigid when it was assimilating the two techniques and his Fla talent together.
And now, it was denying him even a simple request which should otherwise have been accepted.
This was clearly a case of the system rebelling against him, but the reason for it? Alex had no idea.
"I'll tell you about it so other ti…" Alex spoke to Mira, looking despondent as he did so.
Without signing a soul contract, he would practically be giving away sothing that definitely shouldn't be public to anyone who was listening.
Mira just nodded, as she could tell sothing was blocking Alex from being able to tell her.
Since the whole ordeal was over and things had actually turned out well for Alex, Mira left his house for the first ti since everything went to chaos, and headed back to her own dorm.
She planned to get so much needed sleep after such an exhausting day, both emotionally and physically.

'I guess I should check out what exactly changed for .' Alex thought.
Now that Mira had left, he could finally check what had changed.
He rembered the system said sothing when he first reawakened, but he was too preoccupied with the Principal and Mira at that ti to read it.
He pulled up the ssages again, this ti paying more attention to what they said.
[Assimilation complete.]
[Techniques: Phoenix Fury, Heart of the Phoenix had combined with Talent: Fla. For further details, check your talent tab. (P.s. You're one lucky son of a bitch, Alex.)]
He read through the ssage from the system, and was happy to find that there were actual changes to his details.
He couldn't usually see any changes regarding techniques in his details, as they weren't included on there.
But he guessed that because they had dragged his fla talent into the assimilation, it would actually show on his details now.
And from the fact that it asked him to check his Talents tab for more details, he guessed that they weren't techniques at all anymore.

Alex opened up his details to take a look at what had changed from the assimilation.
But he didn't expect to find that his Fla talent had actually been completely replaced!
