Mirik's POV-

I sat down after practicing a bit. I had to rest a bit to be at my full power at the tournament. I took out my phone for a second and put it back in my pocket. I was thinking of calling my parents but then Thought it would be better not to call. I had not talked with them since I told them about my uncle's death.

I will call them after I'm done with this shit.

I was in the middle of my thoughts when I heard some noise outside the window. I could see a bird knocking on the window with its beak. I walked towards the window slowly as the bird knocked. The more I observed the bird the weirder it became. It had only one eye which looked more like a human eye. It had the shape of a pigeon but it was all black. I opened the window as it came inside and dropped an envelope before leaving. I picked up the envelope still bothered by the pigeon. It had two pages inside it, numbered.

I opened the first page to read what was written on it.

"Mirik, it's me, Rama. I don't know how strong you have gotten since I left but I advise you to become stronger. It's not safe out here, I'm having problems with my mission. I sent you this by taking a huge risk. My spirit should travel to you and back to me in at least two days, for these two days I will be vulnerable, so be sure to read this with all your attention. " The letter was from Rama and he seemed a bit worked up.

"I hope that you have at least got to the point where you could form a perfect sphere. " I stopped reading and summoned my spirit. A black ball appeared in front of me. It was a spherical shape. I changed it into a cube and then back to a sphere again. I was now able to control my spirit much better. Forming basic shapes was not very hard for me. I looked back at the letter.

"The sphere should look perfectly smooth. If you are not at that point that means you have not grown out of your personality." My sphere looked a bit rough to see and touch. I had grown out of my childish self but it was still not enough.

"Don't worry I believe in you. You should be able to do it and when that happens you will form an inseparable connection with your spirit. You will be able to convey your thoughts much better to it. It will have a mind of its own, that would mean because of your connection with it you would have two minds. I know you are smart, you should get where I am taking this conversation. " I looked towards my spirit as I thought about the possibility of having two minds. I would be able to think faster, my reaction speed would multiply, and my senses will improve, there were so many things that I would be able to do.

"Keep what I told you in mind you will improve exponentially. This is what I wrote the letter for as I thought you would need some guidance. I would have taught you more but the situation isn't favoring it. " I smiled thinking how much he cared for me as to send his spirit to deliver this message.

"And yeah the second letter...... Don't open it until you are in a picky situation..... And I mean that. Now take care and stay safe. Goodbye child. "
