Chapter 591 Morning of the summoning
[OP: ]
"Hey~. You excited~?"
"I will get a cool partner. I will get a cool partner. I will get a cool partner."
"So you prepared a lucky charm? Lemme see."
"You will get one dude. Chill~."
"I wonder if I will get a familiar as well. I want a mount I can ride."
"Yeah… I also want something I can ride."
"Remember my friend. Meeting your familiar is not about getting lucky while playing some kind of game, but, a fateful opportunity that you will be encountering before many others."
"Hehehe, yes yes~. We already have each other but won't it be fun seeing other~?"
[{ Everyone looks so cheerful, master~. Hehehe. They are all smiling, worried, anxious, and nervous~. }]
[{ "Of course. It's a big day for all of us after all." }]
Standing in the great garden of the academy, everyone was mentally preparing for the big event that would start in a short while. Including Eon and the others.
"So Eon. What do you think the chances of me getting a familiar are?"
A mature female voice from his red-haired 'friend' Carla. And to her question, he answered with a simple smile.
"There sure is a good chance you might get a familiar too. And from "Hmmm? Like me?"
what I believe, a pretty strong one like Alfred."
"Hmmm? Like me?"
Alf himself was surprised by the sudden mention of his name while he was playing with Uto. She had turned into an iguana-like lizard and looked cute. And, since they all did not know about her until now, the others were having fun with her.
She looked cute to them too, especially to Med and Nebula. Those two loved this pretty lizard strangely a lot.
"Yes. Uto is pretty unique so Carla might also get a familiar like her if she gets one.
I have faith you will get a familiar, Carla, but still, the chances are low so I don't think you should get your hopes too high."
"You said it's possible and that's more than enough~. I'm fine even if I get a normal little snake~."
She hugged him with an excited look and moved back to the others. She also liked this new look of Uto so she wanted to have a closer look at those unique features of hers.
[{ "Haaaa… It's fascinating how she learned polymorphism already." }]
[{ "Right? I was super surprised when Alf's call came this morning. It was cute how he said he couldn't find her even after calling her.
She's cute to think playing hide and seek like that was a fun thing and, he's a proper papa to worry about his daughter like that." }]
Rein smiled at the two of them warmly and looked up at her darling.
[{ "Let's have an adorable baby like her" }]
There was a smirk that looked more like a shy smile on her face.
She tried putting it in a more simpler way but still couldn't handle what she said herself and broke out into a pink blush.
[{ "Don't say it if you're going to get embarrassed over it yourself. Though, I don't mind it. We will have a baby or, who knows, perhaps babies of our own, anyway.
Starting from the young creatures we would have to handle today, their new parents who would know nothing about their own babies, then after a while, the bee egg that the queen bee promised, the pink nightingale, some other creatures you want, and perhaps more special ones that we will meet on our journey.
We would be parents to all of them anyway. And of course…" }]
He smirked at her, with not some twisted meaning like his words from earlier but actually what she understood he was saying. And her cute blush became deeper with that.
"The entire school knows you are engaged at this point, which is still hard to believe. But anyway. Just what kind of telepathy do you two use to talk of that secretive stuff like that? Stuff that makes you blush, wet, and hot?"
Their vice president Cradle mumbled while passing by and most of them heard her words.
But she had just walked away toward the stage so even though they wanted to think and question more about the things she said, they stopped and returned to whatever they were doing before, leaving the two of them alone.
"Elle, Eon, don't you two already have familiars too? Will you still try the summoning circle?"
"Of course. There's no harm in trying, right? Who knows? We might just be those unique people destained for more than one familiars."
Lizzy was surprised to hear that but at the same time, there was a smile on her face.
"Then I wish you two good luck as well… by the way, what actually happens if the people who already have a familiar try using the summoning circle?"
She was curious, and perhaps Quin was curious of the same thing so she came running towards them, leaving the little Uto and others alone.
"Well…"
The two of them were looking at him, and since Rein was out of her flustered state, she looked at him as well, curious about the question she already knew the answer to.
"If someone who already has a familiar tries to use the summoning circle, it might either not activate, to begin with, or, if someone was fated to have another familiar and that familiar is something that can be summoned here, it would appear normally like all the others.
Or in the very rare cases, if the creatures aren't something that can be summoned here, one's consciousness is connected with theirs so that they can have a little moment to themselves, know each other, know that someone that is perfect for them for some reason exists somewhere in this world and that they two have to at least meet.
It's a very rare occasion and whenever this happens, one either gets a grand quest to go find their destained partner or the partner comes to them even if they have to cross six seas or the endless space itself."
His words were pretty but prettier was his voice. However, he seemed to have forgotten to say some of the things so, Rein added right after he was finished.
"It's also possible that the person who loses consciousness never returns to their bodies, or something even unique, the creatures that weren't supposed to be here appear instead of the certain creature one had most similarities with.
In that case, like how it has happened before, people get hurt even with the presence of all the teachers and the headmasters."
It sure was a possibility but something like that had even fewer chances than someone summoning a famous origin beast.
She was just exaggerating things, but her words were still true to some extent.
They were a possibility that had happened in the past so, he couldn't call her words completely false either.
He just gave her another smirk like a while ago and that blush immediately returned to her pretty face.
"You bastard!"
She shouted, but, he was still only finding her fun expressions cute.
"Hehehe. You two~. Cut it out. Looks like they will be starting now~."
Zoe couldn't help how her brother and sister were having fun while many other people here were worried and anxious. But they were having fun so it was ultimately fine from her side~.
Their entire group was together today which obviously included Eon, Rein, Zoe, Carla and Alf, Chry and Quin, Lizzy and Med, Nebula and Titania, Hide and Luna, Araxie, and Lox. Ball was here as well.
They all were either playing with the little Uto, or were chatting among themselves, or having their own special little things going around.
They were a group now, and though it was in the process, Chry sometimes brought over his house captain and Gabriel the guardian.
Princess Isabella also dropped by sometimes with Claudius and Alpha… or perhaps alone to take a look at Alf.
There were a few people here and there that attended their special lunch discussions but mainly, there were only these people during their lunch and practice thingy for now.
It had only been a week in the academy so this progress was ultimately amazing.
They all were standing in the garden, the area before the great tree was turned into the stage of today's grand show, There was magic in the air today, something unique that excited all the people present here.
The teachers were watching from the side, the stage prepared for today contained a giant magic circle, which even though was inactive at the moment, looked nothing less than a piece of absolutely brilliant art. The vice headmaster was instructing President Zodiac and a few teachers for some final touches while the students were looking forward to meeting the residents of this floating island as well as their own familiar partners if today was that destained day for them.
The headmaster was not here yet but his arrival would mark the start of the first big event of their academy career.
However, before that…
[{ A very good morning to all of you young ones. }]
It was time for a speech from the great ancient oak tree who had resided on this island and helped countless people meet their soulmates, about the meaning of what it actually meant to form a bond of a 'master' and a 'familiar'.
