A strange feeling suddenly ca over him. Matt felt that soone was talking to him.
He could not hear any voice, but he opened his eyes abruptly because he felt that soone was calling and talking to him from sowhere.
That beautiful hot spring was no longer in front of him, but he had not moved. He could feel the heat that the hot spring gave off in his body, so he was still there. But in front of him, there was a curtain of energy that seed to have color but, at the sa ti, did not seem to have color.
And it was precisely that which seed to be speaking to him.
He set about the task of understanding what was going on.
Every ti this strange energy hit him, he felt it was trying to tell him sothing, so he tried to understand the words it was transmitting.
After much thought about what it might an, he understood a little. "Do you want to sign a contract with ? This is... You're a Spirit Essence?"
Matt felt confused when he managed to decipher a few things. "What kind of spirit are you? Do you belong to the Fifth Type?"
At his question, the energy in front of him seed to flutter slightly, and a number ford in the air.
'6?' But before Matt could ask anything, the number '6' beca a '7'.
'7? What does that an?' He thought, but suddenly, the number 7 changed again.
This ti, it hadn't increased. The change didn't even seem to make sense, for from 7, it changed to a 0.
That didn't seem to keep up with sothing, for in case there was still one more Spirit Type, it should be 6 or even 7, but always in ascending order. Or at least that's what he thought. But a strange feeling hit his body, coming from the energy in front of him, and this feeling conveyed information to him.
That information was simple.
-I do not belong to any of the Spirit Types specified in the Spirit Contract. I am the Spirit Essence. I am the Essence of all Spirits. I belong to none, but at the sa ti, I belong to all.
The information was clear and concise, making Matt wonder why this thing hadn't used this way to talk to him. It made him think so hard, trying to decipher what it was saying before. Still, he didn't voice his questions.
Instead, he tried to understand what that might an. 'It belongs to none, but at the sa ti, it belongs to all...' He thought. That sounded pretty amazing if he had to say it.
But right now, he couldn't grasp its whole aning. Still, this spirit matched what he was looking for.
What he wanted right now was to quench his thirst to investigate these mystical beings belonging to a race he had never seen before. Even if he knows that most of them are half-humans with special abilities and few have different peculiarities, they are still a new race to him.
And he wants to understand those abilities more deeply, maybe out of curiosity or because he has sothing else in mind.
And this spirit didn't seem to be ordinary. It was strange, it didn't seem to have a body, and it called itself 'Spirit Essence', which was already very different from what he had heard before.
Therefore, he smiled after considering several things.
"Alright. I agree to beco your summoner. But before that, I want to know why you chose ."
Once again, a gentle wind hit his body. This seed to be the way this spirit communicated.
Then, information ca into his head.
-I am not a spirit. I should not be compatible with anyone. But you and I are compatible. So, I want to see what all spirits feel and why they want to sign a contract with so living outside us. Besides, only soone capable of forming such a strong connection with this place can sign a contract with .
"Oh? You're not a spirit?"
-No. I'm the Spirit Essence.
Matt frowned. 'Wow, this seems to get either more complicated or a lot simpler.' Matt thought and nodded.
"Right. If you're only compatible with , that ans you must be pretty special. So okay, let's sign a contract."
Once he said this, before the sight of him, a contract began to be written, using the Essence energy in front of him.
There was nothing wrong with the contract, so Matt signed it without question.
Suddenly, the energy around him swayed back and forth and entered his body through his head.
Matt felt an enormous amount of strange energy enter his body. This energy was not harmful; on the contrary, it was so pure and so good that it amazed him.
It was much purer than the energy in this world's surroundings. The purity level was so incredible that Matt never thought such a thing could exist.
Yet, with the entry of this Essence into his body also ca an imnse amount of knowledge and wisdom regarding spirits.
From their birth to why they exist and how they die.
The information was so astounding yet so hard to believe that Matt didn't even have ti to enjoy the environnt around him.
'The Spirit Body is created to be a vessel for a spirit that already exists... Do you an that when a spirit has a child, his child actually already existed in the world and simply entered a body to have physical life?'
If such a thing were the case, do spirits have lifespans or can they live infinitely? In case one of them dies, can the sa spirit be reborn? In fact, just that bit of knowledge passed down to him could overturn many beliefs and so research that humans had done on spirits.
When Matt tried to get a response from that 'Essence', it sent him on a journey into all the information it had bestowed upon him.
'Spirits do not die; they simply reset and return to the World to be distributed, as spirits are born.'
As Matt rummaged through the information, he noticed sothing else and frowned.
