Chapter 10: Right...
Did I steal someone's body? Am I living a borrowed life? Should I tell them ? wouldn't it be kinder if I never tell them and live as their daughter...then why does it sound so wrong..!
" eff….Neff…hey !! " rahil was saying something.
" Yes " I said.
" What's my skill ? and affinity ? you didn't tell me. Is it something bad? " asked Rahil, a little concerned. Ohh I made him nervous.
" Affinity – light and dark….huh ? How can it be both? Isn't that conflicting ? " I decided to distract myself for now.
" It's a Trial " said rahil.
" A Trial ? "
" When a person is born with two conflicting effinities like light and dark then he has to choose one as his speciality, it's called trial. It's a very rare condition. "
" Ohh sounds cool…"
" What is my skill ? That might help me choose a more suitable path…"
" Skill : Ukesh – all Light/Dark magic spell efficiency x3, Extra skill – Uprank +1" I translated.
" Wow efficiency x3 means you can use B rank skill in less than 20 magicules…that's a steal. " My gamer self just can't be not excited.
" Yes it's a good skill. " said rahil happily.
" Though it won't help me choose….What's an uprank skill ? " Why was he stuck on that.
" It should be Light magic right? it's your choice though. " I gave him my opinion.
" Why ? " Can't he see ?
" Healers are much more important than plain magicians right ? " I said.
" Ohh.. yes.. no you have a point…that helps a lot thank you neff. "
" You don't have to worry about it now right? You can just focus on acquiring other skills that are compatible with yours. "
" Yess…my mother would be happy with this too. How do you know so much ancient language? my tutor is the second best researcher on ancient language in whole waccaria and even he has to do it a page a day. "
" Oh I have a skill that helps… " I lied.
" Ohh really? Can you tell me how to get it? "
It's a made-up skill boy. Now how do you acquire a made-up skill ?
" Oh It's just like an extra skill that comes with my main skill….though you can learn growth. " Well I had to say something.
" I thought I already had growth by now…everyone said I was an unusually fast learner. "
" Nope. it's not here. you must have a great mind." I smiled at him. his face turned red.
" If I learn growth, maybe I can catch up to you….ohh no I'm sorry my lady I did not mean to say that we were equal. " he literally bowed at me. I was surprised as hell.
" Come on knock it off. Didn't I say I won't be friends with you if you keep doing that. "
" But it was a mistake on….." I cut him off.
" Besides, aiming for me as a goal won't be easy u know…..because I am the best !! hahah ha ha " I did my evil laugh.
" Of course…" His expressions were weird.
" Come with me. There is something I can help you with." I said as I came down from the chair, and went to my room.
" We are friends now so promise me you won't tell anyone what you see here. "
He looked trustworthy enough but just in case I had him made me promise. Anyway It didn't seem like he had anyone who would believe in him about what he was gonna see.
" Yes. Neff I promise. After all, you are my first friend. " Oh cool. It seems like other noble children don't get to go outside too. I thought it was just my misfortune.
I went to the side wall, erased a door-sized stone and went into my secret lair. I looked back and saw Rahil with his mouth open.
" How did you do that ? Earth element manipulation ? But it shouldn't just go like poof. " he was way more knowledgeable than I had thought.
" It's my skill. " I just smiled.
I went inside and found my book inside a pile of other books. I took it and gave it to him.
" It's all my notes from when I was translating my first ancient text. If you study it and compare words you will definitely learn it too."
" It's….something like this is a family treasure you know ?!! You can't just give your family's translation notes that they compiled over the years…. "
" It's not my family's. It's my personal notes." I explained to panicky Rahil. Man he was such a wuss.
" This much ? On your own? This much can change a region's power balance in one go. Do you even realize that ?? "
" Then make sure no one finds out about it. and give it back to me when we meet again. " I said with a big smile that left no room for any more words.
" Thank you for this Neff. I will protect it with my life. " He said it the next day when everyone was leaving after sending Ruhak and Kiara off.
" You don't have to go that far. just destroy it when it becomes a burden. " I had to make it clear or the way he was he might really die.
" What were you two talking about last night ? " Father asked after everyone was gone. Seems like he saw us last night.
" His mom was dissing him in front of everyone so I thought he would feel better in the fresh air. "
" Ohh how unusual of you to care about guests ? I thought you didn't like to talk to people. "
" I don't care about you scheming nobles and their soulless formalities. A child in need is a different thing. "
He looked at me again with that seeing through me look. I felt my heart quench.
" But maybe I should become more like you….I have responsibilities."
He looked confused for a minute then he said,
" You are just a kid…if even kids in my land can't express their true self then I have failed as a lord. "
I felt a little warm inside.
" Father…. "
DO YOU EVEN HAVE A RIGHT TO CALL HIM A FATHER ??
A voice was saying it from somewhere inside me.
