SPIRITS

When Haruto lost consciousness again, Akari and Leafa woke up.

They were so shocked that Haruto was beside them, and they recalled what happened before they lost consciousness.

A girl opened the door to their room and hand them their breakfast.

"I've recalled most of what happened yesterday but where are we?" Akari asked.

The girl apologized then introduced herself.

"My name is Aila, I'm the daughter of the owner of the inn, this is one of the rooms of the inn, I'm really sorry for what my father did."

"So that was your father, well it's ok now, were the one who should apologize for troubling you"Leafa said.

Then Haruto woke up, it take a minute before he realized what he done to Akari and Leafa.

His face is so red, Akari and Leafa wondered why.

After that they gathered information about the town as much as possible, and Aila showed them around the town.

Then Haruto noticed a huge building and he asked Aila about it.

"That's the Magic Academy, the students there want to learn magic."

So they went and check it out, when they arrived a girl got bullied by other girls.

The girl cried and cried, Akari and Leafa asked her what's wrong, it took a while after the girl calmed down, so when she did, she tell them.

"You see, here in Magic Academy all of the students can do magic, but I can't."

When Aila heard that she can't do magic, she asked the girl.

"Why? Don't the spirits guide you?"

Haruto asked, Spirits? What are you talking about?"

"You don't know? I'm surprised, I'll tell you if you don't know, There are 2 kind of spirits, the lower spirits and the full fledge spirits, lower spirits don't have a physical body and they usually gather as a group, while the full fledge spirit is the evolution of the lower spirits, everyone knows about it, im surprised there's still someone who don't know about it.

Haruto just laugh and think, "Spirits they didn't appear during the beta test, there's so many things we don't know about this world so we need to be careful" as Aila continues.

"When a new life is born, the lower spirits will guide and become one with them, draining the energy of the spirits inside you and realese it is what we call magic, the stronger the spirits the stronger your magic becomes, and once the lower spirit becomes much stronger, they'll take form and will eventually turn into a full fledge spirit."

When Aila was still explaining they heard a huge explosion, when they took a look, the town were on fire.

The townspeople panicked and run as fast as they can, then the little girl run into the fire, All of them stopped her.

She was crying and scream "My mother! I need to help my mother!"

Haruto made her clam down and Haruto went to save the little girl's mother.

It was hard for him to break through the fire, when he was running, he heard a big explosion again.

And something appeared in front of him, a black dragon that never existed in the beta test.
