Chapter 125 – Misha Statue and Mia – Part 2
Without a choice, Mia attempted to use his best psychic skill, which he had been taught by his parents and grandmother since he was young .
"Fireball!"
The skill did not activate .
"What!? How!?"
The dragon smirked, but it did not give Mia any hint .
The slime continued to grow, and it got faster each second . Now, it could walk on two feet .
Mia was scared by just looking at it . Still, he regained his calm when he realized that he had a bit more time to think of a way to kill this monster .
The dragon said it was a judge . That meant Mia had a chance to defeat this slime .
Mia had not given up . He pointed his finger at the slime, trying to use the basic telekinesis .
As soon as he concentrated, he could feel the change . The slime stopped moving .
Still, Mia could not feel the flow of his power, but it worked .
'Something is not right about this place . There is something that I haven't discovered!'
Mia used his telekinesis to control the slime's body one more time, but he still could not sense his force . Instead, he caught a glimpse of another power that was not the telekinesis .
It had a similar usage and foundation, yet it was not .
'Telekinesis requires the user to convert the user's brainwave into pressure and control it . I can't feel my brainwave at all, but I can somehow sense the control . If I skip the brainwave transition process and concentrate on my imagination and control …'
Mia put his theory into practice . He imagined that he had an invisible hand, and it grabbed the slime .
The slime's body shook and compressed as if a giant hand had squeezed it .
The dragon's eyes gleamed as it stared at Mia with awe .
[Not bad . ]
Mia obtained a hint, so he started using his creativity . Instead of using an invisible hand to squeeze the slime, he imagined a bubble that could envelop the black monster . Then, he increased the bubble toughness to the maximum as he compressed it into a small ball .
The humanoid slime was compressed into a dark ball, floating in the air . Unfortunately, Mia could not kill it with just a compression as he could sense the limit of his power .
"Shatter!"
Without a way to destroy this slime, Mia imagined that the ball was in a solid form as if it was frozen by nitrogen, and he shattered it like gla.s.ses .
*CRACK*
It worked . The liquid slime turned into a hardened object and shattered into tiny fragments .
The dragon laughed, [You're the record holder for the fastest clear . I've lost count how many humans that slime has killed today, but you stop its killing-streak . Good job!]
"So, I pa.s.s?"
[Indeed, you pa.s.s . At least, you can inherit her power . ]
Advertis.e.m.e.ntThe slime fragments fused with Mia's body without his control . Then, memories of an ancient past entered his brain .
He saw a mysterious world full of unusual plants, giant trees, a volcanic mountain with living magma tentacles, and a lake with a thousand of beautiful fairies dancing on top of it .
It was not a world that Mia knew .
Then, the vision moved around on the lake, and Mia could hear a bit of conversation . It was a language that Mia had not learned, but he somehow understood some of it .
The vision ended, and Mia regained his sense . He found himself back in the white room .
[Like it?]
"What is that?"
[A memory fragment from one of my friends . ]
"Then … are you one of the fairies?"
[Ha! Fairies? Those old hags will laugh their a.s.s out if they heard your complement, boy . Their b.i.t.c.hiness was so high that they don't deserve to be called a fairy!]
"Okay . Then what are you?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
[Can't you tell? I'm a freaking dragon . ]
"A fairy dragon, I get it . "
[AHAHAHAHA! Oh s.h.i.+t, I wish I could brag this to the others . You hear that, b.i.t.c.hes!? I'm a fairy dragon now . AHAHAHA!]
The dragon's tone was sarcastic . However, Mia detected sadness in the dragon's eyes .
"…"
[Excuse me . I'm sorry, child . Your test is far from over . Several of human children have already died, and I have to migrate all my friends here before they control the corpses and turn them into ghouls . ]
Two more slimes entered Mia's mind s.p.a.ce after the dragon finished its sentence .
Again, it gazed at the slimes with a bitter smile .
[These girls are stronger than the previous ones since they ate a soul . Put them to rest for me . You can have their memories . ]
.
Ten minutes later, Mia managed to crush these slimes as he did with the previous one . However, he took extra times as he ran out of power .
More fragments entered his soul, and they flood him with visions and strange memories . As Mia experienced through someone else's lives, he acquired a wide range of knowledge in the process .
This weird world he saw was the dragon's homeworld, and their true race was Fairy Overlord .
Fairy Overlords are a sub-species of Fairy Dragons . They forsook their physical strength to increase their psyche forces .
These fairies could also use strange powers, and they called it psionic abilities . There were more powers that they could use, such as lightning manipulation, barrier, force field, magnetic forces, gravity, and plasma .
They had two appearances, a fairy form, and a dragon form .
Unfortunately, Mia did not have the time to digest this new knowledge . Five more slimes entered his mind s.p.a.ce again .
[I'm sorry . This is not over yet . I still have over a hundred souls to put them to rest . Oh, by the way . Protect the orb in the middle of the room . That's your core . If it shatters, you're dead!]
"What? Since when have I had a core?"
[The moment you killed the first slime . Hey, they're coming . Keep your guards up!]
"If you want me to kill your friends that much, why didn't you help me!?
[Just shut up and do it!]
.
An hour later, Mia managed to destroy the five slimes . However, his body revealed several broken parts as he overused his mental power .
Mia collapsed on his knee, begging the dragon .
"I'm at my limit . Please, let me go . "
[Didn't you want to hear my name?]
"I do, but I can't go on . "
[Ai, you're pathetic . Still, you're the calmest among all human children . I'll help you . ]
A portion of the dragon's body entered Mia's...o...b.. and his injuries were healed . Although he did not inherit the dragon's memories, his stamina was at its peak once more .
"T-Thank you . "
[If you want to repay me, kill all the slimes I'm sending to you . I'll give you a bit of hint this time . Psionic manipulation requires a clear image, but you can skip some of it if you understand the process of your goal . If you want to shatter a monster as you had done, you can just think of pieces of broken gla.s.ses and replace the gla.s.ses with the slime later . It will save you some energies . ]
.
With the dragon's guidance, Mia managed to kill all slimes with only one-fifth of his strength used .
The fairy overlord nodded in approval and sent ten slimes into Mia's mind s.p.a.ce again .
"How long will this going to last?"
[Until you can help me kill all of them . ]
"You have the power to kill them, didn't you? Why didn't you do it yourself?"
[… I can't . That's why I need your help . ]
"Is it the moral integrity that stops you?"
[More like a dragon's oath . We don't kill each other, or we will experience a curse . ]
"I'm sorry . "
[It's alright . Just keep going . I'll heal and replenish your stamina while you're at it . Keep practicing using those powers . ]
.
For hours, Mia kept killing the dark slimes while the dragon provided Mia with hints and techniques . At the same time, more soul fragments entered Mia's soul, and he absorbed all memories into his .
He mastered all the skills he had learned with all the memory fragments combined .
During the process, the dragon revealed that it was, in fact, a she!
"I saw you in their memories!"
[Haha! Well, what did you see in their memories?]
"Random stuff . Something about hunting for a magma dragon hunk to make him their husband, but he ran away . "
[Oh that . That was one of the hilarious times . Ah, I missed it . ]
"Something happened? You sound sad . "
[f.u.c.k, yes . I'm sad! Humans invaded my planet and killed everyone, including me! Fortunately, I escaped my body before they shredded it into mincemeat!]
The dragon narrated her stories from the past . Everyone had been living peacefully on their planet, minding their own business, and they never partic.i.p.ated in a war .
Then, a fleet of human s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps arrived . Within a month, all fairy overlords and dragon natives were slaughtered by mankind!
Mia could not help but curse at those invaders that destroyed such a beautiful species . He and the dragon talked about the incident and forgot about times .
"… I'm sorry . "
Mia felt guilty as he was also a human . He wanted to do something to repent for his race .
[I know it's not your fault . From what I peeked into your memory, you didn't know anything about this . I think you're also a victim like me …]
"I'm a victim?"
[You have eaten our blood, yes?]
"Huh? I don't think I h … wait, I did . Was it the vitamin drink?"
[Is that what you call? Ha! Those guys are simply evil . ]
The dragon paused and reminisced her past . She shed a tear, and her body began to melt .
[Ah, I think I also reach my limit, too . ]
"What happen!?"
[This is what happens when I can't find a suitable body to be a new host . ]
"You have to power to invade my brain . Can't you take any random human body?"
[Impossible . We abide by the iron oaths . We shall not kill or steal a body from other beings!]
"What's the point of following the oaths if you're dying! Just take over any soldier from MWG, and you'll get your revenge!"
[Child, don't be vengeful . I never seek vengeance against humans from the very beginning . ]
" . . . You dragons are too prideful and stupid! Can't you just value your life over your stupid oath!?"
[True . We're stupid . But I'm willing to be stupid . ]
From the majestic glowing white body of a dragon, she slowly melted into a similar puddle of a black slime .
Before Mia could understand what had happened, more slimes entered his mind s.p.a.ce again .
[Kill everything, including me, hurry! My soul is dying because of the corrosion! Kill me before I lose myself!]
Over 50 slimes invaded Mia's room, and they transformed into humanoid slimes in an instant .
These creatures also had the appearance of Mia's friends!
[Those guys have devoured the souls of your friends . They are the cursed souls the broke the oaths . Kill them and set them free!]
"Argh! You all are driving me nuts!"
.
For five hours, Mia clashed against these slimes with every knowledge he obtained from the fragments . While he was fighting, one of the slimes attacked the dragon as well, but Mia used his power to protect her .
Mia also did not come out unscratched . He lost two limbs and was left with one right arm and left leg . His...o...b..cracked, and his entire soul had fractured, revealing lines of damaged parts all over his body .
The dragon, however, survived with only a floating head . The rest of her body had already turned into a ma.s.s of black slime .
[You've got guts, child . Now, eat me . ]
"Can we talk this out? Aren't there other ways?"
[Unless you eat me, you'll die, too! Even if you survive, the others will try to kill you! Hurry, and do it!]
"… I'm sorry, and thank you . "
[Don't be sad, child . You've earned it . ]
"At least, tell me your name . Do you have a name?"
[… I'm Misha . Misha Bloominglilly . ]
"That's a nice name . I can see that you're as pretty as lilies . "
[Thanks . Too bad, you're not my type . ]
" . . . You are . . . really . Thank you . I'm sorry, Misha . "
Mia shed tears as he pointed his palm at Misha and used his psionic command .
Misha's soul shattered as she was smiling, and her fragments entered Mia's soul .
All injuries that Mia had was healed, but his heart pain worsened .
All tragic memories about the doom of these fairies collected in Mia's brain . He wailed and screamed as he could not take it anymore .
The Milky Way Government sent a fleet to kill these peace-loving fairies to take their blood, and Mia drank it! Within those blood, they contained souls of these beautiful overlords .
Mia recalled their memories before their death to find the face of their murderers .
Mia managed to find it, and he swore out loud .
"I remember your face . Death is not enough for someone like you!"
While Mia was dwelling into hatred and sadness, a change occurred to his...o...b.. his core .
The core's damaged had recovered, but it leaked a smoke . The smoke compressed into a white statue, which became a fairy appearance of Misha Bloominglilly .
The Misha Statue had been born this day!
More slimes entered Mia's s.p.a.ce, but there were less than the previous wave .
"Misha, master . I'll make a vow to you . I'll find that a.s.shole that destroyed you and I'll make him pay!"
