Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 780: Spirits

"What?" Saphandra asked. "Am I not allowed here?"

"No, that's not what we are asking," Ning said.

"I just wanted to see if the place here is similar to the one back on my planet," she said. "Well, it certainly isn't."

"Your planet? Did you reincarnate as well?" the slime asked.

"What? No," she said. "Did you?"

"He has a system," Ning said.

"Oh, good for you," Saphandra said. "I nearly got one too. What's your name again?"

"I don't have one," the slime said. "Hmm, I should have one. Maybe I should just call myself Milo again. That was my name in my last life."

"No, you're Slimy!" the princess said from the side.

The slime made an exaggerating shrug and said, "Sure, why not? Call me Slimy because I'm slime. I will call you little human then. That will be your name."

"Okay, Slimy!" the princess gave a big smile.

"Sigh, I give up," the slime said in a dejected fashion.

"B-brother Ning," Ori spoke from the side. "Thank you for bringing me here."

"Oh, it's fine. I needed 5 people, and you 5 were the ones that came to my mind," Ning said.

"Not Taron?" Saphandra asked.

"No, I did. But I already asked him why he wasn't here before and he sent me a message saying he was chosen, but he gave his position away. He knew he wasn't going to stay here for long, so he didn't want to spend his time taking away other people's opportunities," Ning said.

"You should learn something from him," Saphandra said and turned around.

"What? You don't get to say that," Ning said and started walking too.

"Thank you for bringing me here too, Ning," Tessa said. "Although, I'm sure grandma is going mad right now, and I will be gone for another month."

"Oh… yeah I forgot about that," Ning said. He had been in such a hurry that he simply grabbed the people from where they were and left.

It wasn't just Verina that was going to be worried, both the Duke's family, and the King and Queen of Darius would be worried again.

"System, can I leave and come back?" Ning asked.

<Yes>

"Great. I'll be back in a minute," Ning said and teleported out. He had to first teleport out of the secret realm onto its edge, then from there, he teleported to the different locations to leave behind information on the sudden disappearance of the 5 individuals.

The Darius Kingdom, the Mooncrest city, the beasts in the rain forest, and the old man on the boat who was confused out of his mind, all learned of what had happened.

Some were worried, some were confused, but most were excited out of their mind for their loved ones to gain an opportunity that only came to 1 in a few million people.

Ning returned back to the island and disappeared into the island.

"You're here. Let's go," Saphandra said and started walking.

The group of 7 slowly made their way into the rainforest.

The slime moved at the front, pushing away any branches that were on their way.

Trevain and Saphandra moved on either side, with the princess, Ori, and Tessa, who weren't very strong in either combat or survival.

Ning walked at the back, making sure nothing attacked them from the rear.

"So, where are the spirits?" the little princess asked as she excited walked along the forest.

"Do you want to know?" Ning asked with a smile. He could locate every single spirit at once if he wanted to.

"No," Saphandra said from the side. "We have a month inside here, let's take our time."

"Sure," Ning said and continued walking in silence.

He felt the energy inside the island. For some reason, it was barely any different than the world outside.

'But they do say this island helps them collect Spiritual Energy faster, don't they?' he thought. That was what he had heard. 'Wait, does it have to do with this being an Origin?'

"System, what's the Energy absorption speed ratio here?" he asked.

<1:15>

"Ah, no wonder," Ning thought. While the energy was of the same density, one could collect it 15 times faster than outside.

"Brother, what should I do? I'm not prepared at all," Ori said softly to Trevain. "I don't even know much about spirits, let alone how to bond with them."

"Hah! You don't know about spirits? That's so easy," the princess said from the side.

"You know about spirits?" Ori looked surprised.

"Of course, Teacher taught me," the little princess said.

"You've been learning every day?" Ning asked.

"Yes, teacher," she said. The little princess was now Rank 4 with yellow hair. Soon, she was most likely going to have green hair too.

"Have you been learning about everything?" Ning asked.

"Yes," she said. "Mother makes me study every day. I know about many beasts, spirits, and summoning circles."

"You know about summoning circles?" Tessa looked surprised.

"Yes, Teacher taught me," the little girl said.

"What exactly do you know?" Tessa asked.

"Hmm… I can tell all the rank of the summons, their elemental affinity, and how strong they are," the princes said.

"That's more than what most know," Tessa said.

The princess put on a smug face with how proud she was. "I also know about spirits. Spirits form in a place with many spiritual energy and they give natural powers," she said.

"What natural powers?" Ori asked curiously.

"I don't know. I haven't got to that part yet. The book only said natural powers," the princess said.

"Unlike with beasts, bonding with a spirit grants you complete control over one of the fundamental laws of the world," Ning said from the back.

"For example, little blue lets Saphandra attract and repel things. The headmaster of First Bond school has control over the sound. I saw another headmaster with the power to control gravity too I think," Ning said.

"Given that you are also guaranteed to have violet hair after bonding with them, you can see how lucrative spirits become to everyone."
