Palace's Breeze

"REVERIE WHAT DID YOU…" Turning back I saw the boar… his skeleton to be exact, it was the only thing remaining "...do…?"

-(What I had to do Gawko… you're welcome)-

"What… you… had to do…? ARE YOU SHITTING ME?!" Running up to the skeleton I picked up a tusk from it and put it against my own neck "I TRY TO TRUST YOU! I REALLY DO! BUT THE ONLY THING YOU DO IS ORDER ME AROUND, YOU DON'T STOP ORDERING, CONTROLLING ME! SO EITHER YOU START SPEAKING OR WE END THIS JOURNEY RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!" I could feel the cold bone pressing against my neck, it was sharp, sharp enough to puncture me, sharp enough to kill me… again…

-(I… I… d-don't hate me please… I d-did it for you… I-I-I…)-

"Is not about hate or the likes of so! Is about trust! You want me to trust you?! Then start speaking! Start trying to understand my point! I was in a fucking different world until not so long ago! Magic?Giant Boars?Fucking voices in my head? I didn't even think I could see or hear all those until a few hours ago!"

-(I-I-I can't! I can't explain right now! You have to trust me! It will all make sense in the end I promise!)-

"LAST WARNING! EVEN IF I DON'T UNDERSTAND TELL ME!" I could feel how the tusk pressed more and more against my neck, I could feel it shake, I am shaking

-(OKAY LISTEN LISTEN PLEASE! FIRST! If I tell you I'll be gone, GONE! Second! You will forget everything about me, all of it! And you will probably die! Is not that I don't want to tell you! Is that I can't! Please you have to believe me… if you don't then I…I…)-

… So she can't tell huh? Well even if she is lying I do think she is not enjoying this very much

"Sigh… fine, at least be clear next time, and when I say not to kill is not to kill understood?" I finally let my hand fall dead, a bit of blood was already coming out from my neck, that was close…

-(Yes! Yes, understood! Not killing unless told so!)-

"Good" Picking up the other tusk I pocketed both of them and started walking again "Now you are gonna answer two questions, first, if I were to get information about what you just said by other means what would happen? And second dafuk did you do just now? The magic stuff?"

-(Hmmm if you got information from any other source nothing would happen I think… and that was just Divine magic, you were so agitated because of the battle, that I was able to shoot it)-

"Hm? You mean I don't usually allow you to cast magic?"

-(Hm well at the moment is like a cage, I can't do anything outside of it unless you open the door for me, but if you accidentally hit it, it can open temporarily)-

"Cool, cool, now you give me a list of the magic you can use, the conditions like my mana, yours, the CO2 in the air etc… BECAUSE BEING ABLE TO SHOOT ERASING BULLETS FROM ONE'S BODY IS AT THE TOP OF THINGS TO TELL ME!"

-(Teehee sorry)-

"DON'T TEEHEE ME!"

-(Although it was weird I didn't spend neither my mana or yours hm)-

"And you are already moving on great, anyways at least is recomforting to think that in case of emergency you can just go disco with erasing magic"

-(Divine, Gawko, Di-vi-ne is one of the 14 affinities and the second most powerful in the raw)-

"M-hm anyways, anything else you can do that you think you should tell me?"

-(Hmmmm I don't think so, wait let's try this)- A weird green ghostly finger poked out of my chest, almost giving me a heart attack -(Can you see this?)-

"Y-yeah?"

-(Oh cool then that's everything)-

Another pop up appeared in front of me

[Spectral Symbiosis reached 5%]

"Mhmmmmm so what will happen when this reaches 100%? You will take over my body? Are you a specter?"

-(Pfff dunno)-

"Bitchin'"

The finger kept expanding allowing me to see the hand of which it belonged

"Is… that your hand?"

-(I think so yeah)-

[Spectral Symbiosis reached 10%]

"Cute… hand?"

-(Awww, thank you!)- A bit more of hand reached out and stopped around the wrist -(Hm it seems I can't do more for now)-

[Spectral Symbiosis reached 14%]

"Well good news, I have… we have… arm. yes, bad news, I'm slowly losing my mind"

-(Oh come on don't be like that)-

"Yeah yeah, anyways can you do the thing you did before with the boar?"

-(Sure!)-

A bullet appeared from my chest leaving a perfect round hole in multiple trees and finally getting lost in the forest

"Huh"

[Titles Obtained: Palace´s Breeze, Ball breaker]

[Obtained +2 Agi from Palace´s Breeze title]

[Obtained Ball breaker title, any attack directed to an enemy's genitals from now on will do an additional 30% damage]

"HUUUUH?! Revs you seeing this?!"

-(Sadly yes… you want to know the good or the bad news first?)-

"Surprise me"

-(Okay so basically, you got some pretty nice bonuses, which is good, titles are not easy to come by, now for the bad part, that means you can easily be identified by other people)-

"Oh well I basically just crashed into a castle so that was already a given… on that note, FUCK!"

-(At least you are famous?)-

"A famous most-wanted criminal right?"

-(Famous non the least hehe)-

"If I could punch you I would."

As the night started to walk in I kept on talking on with Reverie, after the whole ordeal with the boar, it was at least easier to talk with her

"So how the hell do titles work?"

-(In a way is similar to using appreciation on an item, the cognition of the people can give you nicknames and in succession if they believe you stronger than you are, you can become stronger by those titles, although it has a limit, you can't make a king out of a peasant as they say!)-

"I have never heard a saying like that in my life Revs"

-(Well you get my point, anyways you should probably go to sleep already, climb onto a tree, that will have to do for today)-

"You sure? I can keep walking a bit more"

-(No, if we find any monsters amidst the darkness of the night we'll be easy prey, plus is your first day as a piece, and having in account what you did today, I'm a bit scared you are not yet fully tired, how's your leg by the way?)-

"Is feeling better thanks for asking, either way even if you don't have any talent you will amount a big reserve of stamina by training as much as I do"

-(Is that so? Hm anyways just climb a tree and get some sleep)-

"Fine fine" I picked up the biggest tree I could find and started climbing when…

-(NOW HOLD ON A MINUTE!)-

"WHAT?!"

-(Eat some of those yellow berries)-

"Eh? Why?"

-(Well you are going to sleep and those are paralyzing berries)-

"And why the heck would I eat those?!"

-(If you eat them before sleeping the effect will fade while you sleep, it will help you sleep better and you will get some resistance to paralysis it's a win win win!)-

"... Are you sure this time these are that kind of berries?"

-(Yeah yeah now go and eat them geez!)-

Grabbing a bunch of berries I climbed up a tree and layed down in the most "comfortable" knock I could find

"No need to be so pushy geez" As I ate the berries I started to get sleepy, funnily enough they tasted like vanilla "So… Revs how do you know so much stuff?"

-(Hmmm… how? I guess is my father's fault)-

"Really? Sounds like a funny guy if he is teaching you this kind of stuff"

-(Well he really tried to be funny, but he always tries his best and stands for what he believes in)-

"Maaaan you are making it sound like my old man"

-(...! What is he like!?)-

"Huh? And that enthusiasm?"

-(I-I just realized you got me telling personal stuff! So now is your turn to spill the beans!)-

"Hmmmm let's see… he is strong, probably one of the strongest, not only in body, but also in mind… well unless my mom is there hahaha he always does as she tells him, If I had to say something specifically about him… It's probably the most cliche stuff ever, but I wouldn't change him for anything!"

-(Is that so… Oh oh and how is your mother?... Gawko? Oh right the berries, goodnight Gaw)-

----------------------

As the night falls the wind blows through the castle, now heavily guarded against the possible intrusion of another Palace's Breeze as the guards have come to call him, fast as the wind, so much that you only see a weird red shine before being strike

In what's likely the only lighted room in the castle so late in the night there's a table with a few people sitting around, and presiding the desk is a blonde haired man of strong presence

-So what do we know about this Palace's Breeze? How did he enter the castle?-

A man wearing a long black coat and with a shining red hair stood up -We don't know anything about him yet, there were no visible breaches in our security so our only option left would be most certainly spatial magic-

-Hm… I see, thanks Daku… So spatial magic… What do you say Reisen? Could it be?-

Sitting at the opposite side of the desk a red eyed girl wearing a scholar outfit yawned before answering -Nah I don't think so, if some pervert like that had spatial magic, the princess wouldn't have been his first attack-

-Hm… Kevin, you are one of the few people who got a close look at him, anything you can tell us?-

The guard who gave Gawko Bahn Khai the title of Ball Breaker was standing still next to the door -Yes sir! His hair! Was weird and depending on the light seemed to change color, additionally his moves made it seem as if he knew perfectly where he was going, and his clothes were pretty different to anything I had seen before sir!-

-Is that so?- I wonder… When will we meet each other? Thought to himself the man presiding the reunion
