To her answer, the Spirit Essence said nothing. Since she was here, she could explain the previous question to Matt more easily.
As Alessa and Alice moved over to sit on Matt's side, Alice noticed that Alessa wanted to sit on Matt's lap. It was just a thought that went through Alessa's mind that she could understand because they were connected.
That was why she gave her a threatening look that made Alessa stop and turn her head away.
Alessa then decided to get up and stood in front of Matt. She bowed politely to Matt to introduce herself. It was a partial bow. At the sa ti, she put a hand to her chest and smiled.
"Nice to et you, Matt. I didn't get a chance to introduce myself properly earlier because I was in shock, but my na is Alessa. I am the Progenitor of the Spirits in Body.
I can see you have a lot of doubts about ; I'm just the new Progenitor of my race." Her soft-spoken manner, with a calm and truly complacent voice, was a trendous contrast to what she had said, for her words were like stunned thunder.
As soon as she said that, she raised her hand to her chest, causing a spirit to appear there.
"I am not a summoner. All the spirits you see appear while I fight, and while Alice uses the power I taught her, they co from ."
Matt frowned. "You an they are created? Those spirits weren't summonings, but more like... Creations?" he asked, and Alessa nodded.
"Hehe, maybe I can't match your blood and the purity of your body, but in power, I'm not too bad, am I?" she replied while smiling.
Although her answer was surrounded by smiles, and almost that didn't seem real, Matt could now understand why he felt that her power was not summoning, if not sothing else. And that left him stunned.
This would be the first ti he had ever t a progenitor of a race. Progenitors are said to be the most absurd beings in existence, and every one of them is very powerful.
'Is this little girl that powerful?' He thought though he didn't plan to ask.
But he did get an answer.
She is powerful, Matthew. You shouldn't underestimate her by how she looks and how she's barely 16. Her mother inherited all the power from her, and she's been growing up under my teaching since she was 6.
It was the Spirit Essence that said this, and it was its voice that snapped Alice out of her daze, though she couldn't react yet.
Matt frowned and looked at the Essence behind Alessa.
"Learning from you? A progenitor?" he asked.
At his question, a smile rang through the room.
-That's right, all the progenitors of my race have grown up under my hand. I will tell you who I am right now.
Once he said this, the energy surrounding the room partially darkened and began to show an impossible-to-count number of white dots floating in the void.
-The Spiritual Essence is nothing but the Essence of the Spiritual World. The First Progenitor of our Race ca from , and with the help of a great man of the past, we created a body for her. But the life, the abilities, and the very Essence of each Progenitor ca from . Alessa is the Progenitor of the Spirit Bodies; she creates them.
But I am the Progenitor of the Spirits, their abilities, and their life.
Matt opened his eyes wide after hearing this. At that mont, Matt did not know that he had t a fantastic spirit.
He signed the contract with this Spirit simply because he was strange and unique. He never imagined that he had actually been targeted by a guy who could be considered...
A God.
The vampiric, human, and sun races' progenitors were Gods. That ans that these two existences in front of him could also be considered Gods within their respective races.
But Matt didn't lose control; he stared at them both.
"If that's so, are the abilities you have given , are spirits as Alessa did with Alice?" he asked.
-That's right, every ti you receive a new ability, a new spirit has just been created.
"Is there sothing special about it? In Alice's case she can summon the spirits created. In they are just abilities? Or could I summon them sohow?"
-There is no limitation for these spirits. Feel them inside you; they are there. That inscription given to you by that woman of Destiny is not as simple as you think. Have you not understood it, or have you not realized it? You are not invoking through the artifact you possess but through your own body.
His words shocked the three present. Alessa turned sharply to look at him.
"What do you an!? Vampires can summon spirits again!?" She asked in shock.
-Hehe, who knows. At least now we know there is one person capable of breaking the curse.
Alessa frowned and looked at Matt once again.
'...I see. It's the whole connection.' She thought.
That's when it dawned on Matt.
Since he was doing it unconsciously, he didn't think too much about it. But if he thought about it, he wasn't even using mana to summon the Essence.
'I'm using purely spiritual power.' He thought and closed his eyes.
He imdiately looked inside him to see why the Spiritual Essence had told him so.
And it did not take him long to open his eyes, to his great surprise.
Inside him now rested two white 'energies'. They were like dots, just like the ones in the Spirit Essence.
'Are they spirits?' he thought.
-That's right, you can use it for many things and use its abilities freely. But that is not the only way to use them.
As the Essence said this, Alessa stepped forward and stood before Matt, looking at him with intense adoration.
"You want us to mix our powers? I can't mix them with Essence because we're not compatible, but you and I are. That's why I said it: We're the perfect couple." she said.
Matt looked at her and frowned. Honestly, he doesn't understand what goes through this girl's head every ti she says she wants to marry him, but being a little girl, he decided to ignore her in that aspect. But she had just said sothing interesting.
"If I understand correctly, you're saying that to create more spirits in body and Spirit... No? Can't you do it on your own that already?"
"I can do it and use spirits from my world to create them. But... Don't you want to create a spirit from scratch? It will suit your needs and mine." She replied, smiling.
Alice frowned when she heard this and stood up. "Alessa, can't you exert your power through my body? I don't think it requires such intimate contact between you, just for that," She said.
Alessa turned to look at her reproachfully, but this ti, she could win, so she puffed out her chest in pride. "No, you can't. There's a difference between Matt and you right now. He can't break the contract with the Spirit Essence because he has transford into the Spirit Essence himself, whereas you are not . You can use my power through inscriptions, but you can't use it as freely as Matt."
