So, there am I standing in front of this really beautiful and cute girl, nearly screaming and being totally mystified by her appearance.

“KYAAA!” Mia screamed a bit flustered

“Don´t yell at me so suddenly!

I am now in my real form. I was just sealed in that form back there. The umbrella is the most fitting item for my representational appearance. Now that you´ve become a complete deity, all of your powers were set valid and so were mine too.” Mia

“So you are Mia? My spirit guardian? …” Me still stunned from all those changes in short

“Yes! As I explained I was just sealed in that umbrella form before.

Now that you got your powers, mine were activated as well. My powers are based on your affinity’s, so I could only transform now, now that your power affinity’s are clear.” Mia explains a bit sulky

“O... Ok. I am sorry for yelling at you, but I was just too mystified with your appearance.

You are really cute, but more important are you satisfied with Mia as your name ?” me asking a bit worried

“Mhh... I think its ok. I had worse names before, but I wished for a surname or something.

Just Mia feels like being named as a pet and not as friend. Give me a surname or byname and I am totally fine with Mia.” Mia while she blushed without a react to my comment of her cuteness

“Well ok, lets think about a surname. Did you had a name in your past, that you really liked?”me

“ I don´t remember very well, but I think I was once called haku ryù what means white dragon and I really liked to be called like a noble creature like dragons were.” Mia

“I give this a moment of thought, it should be something very outstanding and must be benefiting for a noble creature as dragons are. Mhh this is not really easy”-me

After a few minuets I came to a conclusion.

“Ok, then I´ll name you Mia Tora-za. This was the name of a legendary, ancient Monster in form of a white tiger. The tiger is also a noble creature and its just like my powers represents equipoise your name now shows balance to your dragon name before. Yin and Yang and Tiger and Dragon.“Me

“Wow... that feels like a real name for a legendary spirit guardian, as I am.

You also seem to have given a deep thought about that name. I think I can really go with that name, nor better I think I actually love that name...

From now on I am Mia Tora-za the confidant and guardian of the new deity Van Hohenheim.” Mia said as she proudly smile at me

I am glad that I read a lot of manga and old legends about Asia in my time as human, so that I have a good knowledge about those kinds of things.

“Haha, I am glad that you are ok with that name. I thought that it would be great if your full name will have some kind of deeper meaning, so I guessed that this name will be a fitting one for that purpose.”me

“Yes, its great I really do like that name”Mia with a bright smile

“But well the names aside, you said earlier that your powers were defined after my affinity’s, right?

So does that mean you know about my powers and how I will be able to use them?” Me

“Hihi~ maybe I do know something, but there would be no fun If I tell you right out.” Mia

“Come on, please Mia, tell me about it. I even cant recognize at least a small change about me or my whole body, At least give me a hint.” me literally begging for a hint

“Ok, ok. I was just kidding, I´ll tell you what I know about your powers, but don´t be too disappointed. Because even I don´t know much about your powers.

My ability’s resemble your´s, so I can tell you my powers, in hope for them to let you figure your´s out. I´ll show you my book of status.” Mia

Mia points her finger upwards and calls “Oracle” a white shining, heavy old book appeared in front of her. She opens the book and shows me a chapter called Mia Tora-za´s ability´s.

Mia Tora-za´s ability´sShapeshiftingIncorruptipleGuardian EquipoiseHoly ObjectBlessed path

I cant understand a thing of those written ability names, how the hell should I know about any ability effect of an ability called blessed path?? What the hell, this does not help me any further.

But anyway I cant afford to tell mia that I don´t understand the meaning of this just by looking at the names of her ability´s. I guess I just get to figure my powers out by my self.-me

“Wow that book is surprising. What is this?” Me

“That´s the book of status. Its called Oracle and all deity´s and their guardians, as well as their higher clan member are able to summon this heavy thing, by tipping in the air with their index finger and calling the name “Oracle” they also must focus their thoughts and imagine it to success the conjuring.” Mia

“That sounds cool I wanna try it.” Me very excited

I raised my index finger in the air and tipped as I called the name “Oracle”... nothing happens

“Mhh, maybe I imagined it not clearly enough”- me

Again I raised my index finger in the air and called the name “Oracle”.........Aaaaand again, nothing happens

“Well this is screwed up!! Why wouldn´t it work for me? Am I not a fully awakened divinity???” me a bit in anger

“Huh, this is odd. Normally you should easily be able to summon that thing and I can clearly see your sanctity, which means you really are a divinity now. Just try to imagine that book clearly like it would be right in front of you” Mia

“Well ok last try. All good things go thrice.” Me

I raised my index finger and called “Oracle” while I really imagined that old, shining and heavy shaped book right in front of me.

But again nothing was to happen.

“Ahh damn...! this sucks, but well I don’t even want such a thick, old, down handed book!” me really upset and trying to insult a book

Right as I finished my tantrum, a black and white shining book falls on my head and nearly knocked me out.

“Ouhhh... damn, why the hell does it appear above my head and why now??

Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there.

that really did hurt”me in pain

“Hahahahaha~” Mia looked at me, while she cant hold her ease and laughed

“Ouhh... that thing really hurt. And its not funny at all, ok maybe a bit. But Mia´s laugh is really cute, so that I just must forgive her.”-me

I stand up and as I stand the book floats up with me and stops right in front of my right hand, which I am holding right up, so that I am able to open it.

The book is a really old and heavy shaped medieval reader. It has an ironwork cover and its colors were black at the front cover and white at the back. A peaceful Sp is spreading from its core and it feels like it belongs to me, like its a part of my own body.

(Authors note: just repeating SP means Spiritual pressure )

I open the Oracle and the first page has a big written Index at the top.

Index of Van Hohenheim´s OracleAbility´sReputeMastered Problems AchievementsClan/ReligionNotes

I fast flicked through the pages, but nearly all of them were empty, aside from the ability´s page and the Repute page.

On the ability´s page I find my list with ability names and beside the ability names is a space left blank.

“For what purpose this blank space might be, mhh”-me

The Repute page shows a small summary of what I have done so far, well not that much, actually there is just one sentence that says: has achieved the reputation of an unknown deity and must prove what he is able to accomplish.

I hope there will be some one who´ll recognize me as a deity, even if I haven´t accomplished anything yet.

While Mia and I were standing here in middle of the fir forest, we haven´t recognized that its getting dark and that a thunder storm is rising above us.

“Ohh sh*t!. Mia it´ll soon start to rain and its darkening already.

Do you have any plan what we should do for now?” I asked mia quite worrying

“Oh, yes your right, we totally forgot about the time...

lets try to get under a thickly fir for the beginning.” Mia

“Yes lets do that”me

The same moment it begins to rain, just like someone showers bathtubs from the sky.

Mia and I run under a big thickly grown fir. The rain is really strong but under this fir we are safe from the coarsest and can think about a place to stay.

The forest now is really peaceful, we can hear the rain falling on leaves and trees and the sundown was rather fast. Now its getting pretty dark here and soon we´ll cant see a thing anymore.

“Mhh, let me try something. I thought about something, as I looked at my ability´s.”me

I draw a rune on the ground, it is the rune for B in the Celtic rune alphabet.

While I draw the rune on the ground with a wooden stick, which I found lying around, I imagine a big tent. And as soon as I finished I could not believe my eyes... exactly there were I drew the rune a big tent, big enough for 4 persons and in a military color, appeared right from the ground.

“Wow! Yaaaay~ you did it! You used one of your powers.” Mia screams in over excitement

“Y...Yes, well I cant believe it myself. All I did was imagining a tent and drawing a rune.” Me still stunned from my own actions

“It came naturally from my hands, as if I have done nothing else for over years. It felt really familiar and I knew very fast what was to do. I was wondering if one of my ability´s might be to summon things, because it felt very good and familiar as I summoned the Oracle, its as if it gave me the hint for this.”-me

while I am still stunned a white shining light appears in front of me and my Oracle shows up.

It paged itself to the ability page and I can see black letters carving themselves right next to the name “Mythology”. As the letters were finished I could identify the sentence.

I read it out loud, so Mia is able to understand it too:

“Mythology, hidden ability. Well done you instinctively achieved a hidden ability. You now are able to use the power of Celtic and Germanic runes to summon or conjure something that is fitting to what you do. Use this power wisely, it has an undefined might and was lost for over a six thousand years.”me reading out loud

right next to the text there was a red marked small note:

Affinity rarity: unknown lost power

“Huh..., that means you really are the big deal, hehe. I am very glad that I am your guardian.

There are not many deity´s who bear the affinity for a lost power within them. Those are mostly the power fullest ability´s which can change the world.

Plus I never have seen a divinity who was able to accomplish a success with a lost power at their first day.

We really might get to become the change those broken worlds need.

I am getting even more excited now.” Mia screaming at me in a very excited and hysteric voice

“Ähhm... so I guess this is something good...?”me

“Yes, it totally is! I am really excited for our journey to begin.” Mia said while slowly beginning to yawn

“Cool, that means there is still hope for me to become a great deity. I hope the next days will go a bit easier for me.” Me

After a bit of small talk with Mia, we decided to go to sleep.

The rain hasn´t stopped and the wind has gotten strong too. It is not cold, even without blankets, in the tent and a peaceful sound of nature is playing around the tent´s wall. In other words it was a piece of cake to fall at sleep. What a shame that I am too tired to peep at Mia while she is asleep.

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

So yes that was a short chapter I know, but I have had not enough time, right after new year I´ll continue with the longer chaps.

And dont get the wrong Idea about this story, the MC will become a reall motherfucking badass very soon and the action will follow in the chapters too.

Soo far hope you enjoyed this.

And for soon

A HAPPY NEW YEAR !! ^^
