“Tetra recovered the bodies and gave them to me.”
While staring at the bodies I suddenly feel two impacts on my back, it was Elia and Iancu running over me to see the robots.
“I can’t believe I can see a real robot. They exist, they can actually be made.”
“I want to rip it apart and see what is inside, god bless you for giving me this gift.”
“Hold your horses you two, that won’t be happening at all.”
“What do you mean boss?”
“The insides of those robots are completely scorched, I don’t what kind of system they build into them, but it seems the moment Orb cut their heads off they melted their insides.”
“So all this technology is lost.”
“Indeed.”
As Iancu and Elia start to whimper, I get up and say, “So what is the point of having them?”
“While their insides might be useless, the armour around them isn’t. You see it is made from a rare substance spirit metal, spirit metal is a great conductor of spirit energy and gets lighter when using spirit energy on it.”
“Wait isn’t these the same things Atalanta’s bow is made from?”
“You’re right about that. This stuff is super rare, so I just thought about selling it. But if you want it, it’s yours.”
“Really!”
“Yeah you’re the one who defeated them, so they are rightfully yours. You can sell or get someone to forge it into a weapon.”
“Well I can’t really use spirit energy, so these would be too heavy for me.”
“Then just give it to someone who you know could use it.”
After thinking for a second I say, “I think I can forge a bow for Maple with this stuff. Her legacy works best with Atalanta’s bow, but she can’t just take it.”
“This Maples a legacy?” Iancu asks.
“Yeah she is, and she even has a funny mark under her right eye like you.”
“Then maybe our Legacies have a relationship just like you guys. Wouldn’t that be funny?”
“Not like we could ever know, WAIT!”
Grabbing Iancu, I run out of the room all around the ship until I find Suzuka. Bragging into her room, I see her, Atalanta, and Cyrus then I shout, “SUZUKA.”
Suzuka jumps from the floor in shock. She is surrounded by clothes on the floor, so I ask her, “What are you doing.”
“I am looking through all the stuff Ai got for me. Cyrus and Atalanta are here to help.”
She is completely surrounded in clothes, how much money did Ai spend on her in those expensive shops?
“Orb do you need something?”
“Oh, yeah I need you to charge the soul book, I want to find out what Iancu’s legacy is.”
Turning around slowly to show me her back, she says, “No I refuse.”
“Why?”
Piering her head backwards she says, “Because I hate him.”
“I would never want to be liked by an idiot like you.”
“You see he isn’t nice at all.”
Walking up to Iancu Atalanta gives him a hug, and says, “Suzuka isn’t everything better if we're all friends.” Iancu looks like he is about to explode from being this close to Atalanta.
So, I pull him away and say, “Don’t over-excite him, if he passes out we’re dead.”
“Oh, Orb are you jealous, do you finally want a hug?”
“I would rather jump from the top of this ship into the ground than touch you.”
“Why do you have to be so mean to me!”
“Orb you should calm down, that woman isn’t like that evil fox demon.”
“What did you just call me.”
Φ As all of them start fighting in front of me, I don’t know what to do. No Cyrus you must try your best, you’re about to met my sister again, I need to show growth.
Standing up I say, “E-E-Ever-r-r-r-rybody let’s get along.”
They all stare at me like beasts and say, “What was that Cyrus.”
Scarred, I feel my ego shrink and pathetically say, “N-N-N-N-Nothing.”
Φ Looking at Cyrus's scarred face I say, “You know what let’s stop this.” Giving her a hug I say, “Suzuka please do this for me, I need you.”
If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
Blushing she says, “If you really do, I will help.”
“I really do, please save me.”
“Ok then.” She really is so easy. I need to watch the people who will abuse that kindest.
As we all sit down with Suzuka charging the book, I give Cyrus a lap pillow to help his ego recover from the beating we gave him.
“Orb what did he say?” Iancu asks.
“Did you really not understand something so basic.”
“Suzuka no picking fights.”
“But he started it.”
“Suzuka.”
Stopping she turns her head to not face him. “So, you were actually asking what he meant.”
“I can’t speak the saviour's song so I had no idea what he said.”
“It was nothing major, but it will be an issue communicating with Cyrus if you can speak the saviour's song.”
“Does he not speak the other two songs?”
“He can speak a very broken version of the heroes, but with his stuttering, it is hard to make it out. What songs do you guys use?”
“Well, my dad and Elia speak all three, while me, Gheorghe, Ivana, and Wadim speak the heroes and the heaven’s songs. What about you guys?”
“I speak all three so does Atalanta. While Suzuka speaks the saviours and the heroes. Wait, Suzuka how do you even speak the heroes, who taught you.”
“I learned it by reading the thoughts of foreigners, I was born in a port city so we get lots of them. I also speak the heavens to some extent. Looks like I am ahead of you Iancu.” She says smugly.
Φ The annoying vampire in front of me starts to get mad, and then he turns and says something to Orb that I don’t understand, but I swear he said my name in the heroes song. Whatever he says causes Orb to laugh.
“What did he just say Orb?”
“Sorry I can’t say.”
“I wonder what I said, you don’t speak the heavens well enough to know,” the annoying vampire says.
Φ Excited that the annoying monster starts to fume, I have a big smile on my face. She angrily turns to Orb, then says something while definitely mentioning my name.
Orb has a big smile on his face and says, “Suzuka you shouldn’t say things like that.”
“What did she say!”
“Sorry I can’t tell you,” Orb says while giggling.
“Too bad you don’t speak the saviour’s song, isn’t it you dumb vampire.”
“If that’s how you want to play, then we will play you little piece of garbage.”
“Bring it on!”
Φ Sitting in the middle of Suzuka and Iancu, they start to say extraordinarily vile insults at each other rapidly to the point where I can’t stop laughing.
Eventually, Suzuka stops and hits Iancu in the face with the book, saying, “It's done.”
Recoiling from the blow, Iancu says, “You dumb bit-.”
Getting in between the two of them I say, “Looks like we’re done here. Now let’s go see what is in the book.”
Iancu holding the book tries to use his legacy on it. “Why is it taking so long!” Suzuka says.
“The fact that you asked such a question shows how dumb you are. Legacies are difficult to activate on more than one object at a time.”
Looking at Iancu I say, “But I can do it all over my body.”
“Elia already told you that your legacy likes your flesh that is why it can be used on it, mine likes machinery, so something like a paper book is incredibly hard to use my legacy on.
After struggling for a little while, with his legacy on the ship going on and off, he is finally able to use his legacy on both the book and the ship. “I can only maintain this for a little while so let’s hurry.”
Opening the book Iancu reads the name of his legacy out loud; “Force Messiah: Capricorn.”
“Capricorn as in the twelfth month. But aside from that it has a title instead of a name like ours.”
“I have no idea who this could even possibly be.”
Atalanta says, “Well doesn’t this book just paste information that is already inside the legacies soul, so if the legacy went by a title more than his name it would make sense to have title pasted for the name.”
“Then why would its name be Capricorn?” Iancu asks.
“I don’t really know.”
Chiming in I say, “Specific months have certain meanings in different cultures, so it wouldn’t be strange to name your child after a month.”
“I see, let’s look if it shows anything else,” Iancu says flipping the page.
“I wouldn’t expect anything especially since ours didn’t have anything else written.”
“There is something here.”
“WHAT! Let me see.”
The page says.
[Traits adopted]
Force sight.
“What is force sight?”
“I think it may mean my vision.”
“Your vision?”
“When I awakened my legacy, my eyes changed. I can accurately measure the force or resistance of anything I see. Like I can see gravity acting on all of us, and the air resistance on any object, even the force behind a punch. It helps me accurately gauge targets to use my legacy on.”
“So it is like how my sense of hearing and smell have been increased. Adopted traits from the legacies inside us.” Turning to Suzuka and Cyrus I ask, “Have you guy's bodies changed at all since you awakened legacies?”
“I believe I could hear thoughts in my head clearer.”
“So probably nothing,” Iancu says.
“That probably isn’t it. If you think about it, she was already born cursed with its power before she got her legacy. So there were probably no traits to adapt. If she wasn’t a norowareta-ko she probably would of just gained those abilities.”
“What do you mean cursed?”
“I will explain it to you later.”
“Orb don’t tell him my information!”
“Moving on, what about you Cyrus.”
In the heroes song, Cyrus says, “I think I can eat more.”
“So utterly useless you idiot,” Iancu says.
As Cyrus starts to pout, Suzuka says, “Take that back you rat-sized donkey.”
“Who are you calling rat-sized!”
“Look around do you see anyone else rat sized.”
Suzuka's comments cause them to start violently fighting again, how much more of this do I have to deal with? I need to stop this right now, how do you get two kids to stop fighting? Atalanta peering her head over my shoulder says, “You two must really like each other.”
They both suddenly stop.
Following her lead, I say, “I heard the more kids fight the more they secretly like each other, to think this is just a lovers spat. How cute!”
With a fake smile on her face, Suzuka says, “Iancu what to be friends.”
With a shallow smile back, he says, “Of course I do.”
“Just so you know it is customary for friends to hug,” Atalanta says.
They both begrudgingly get up and Suzuka stretches out her hands. So, Iancu gives her a hug.
“You know whenever I give someone a hug, I tell them how much I care for them.”
“That does sound like the correct thing to do Orb,” Atalanta says.
Iancu with veins popping out of his head says, “Suzuka thank you for being my friend, it means a lot.”
Bashfully Suzuka says, “Do you really mean that?” She really is easy; a few nice words and she forgets herself completely.”
“Eww no.”
“I am going to kill you!” Suzuka says starting another brawl.
What am I going to do with these two? Getting up I try to break up the fight, but suddenly he ship starts to shake; “What the hell is going on.”
All of us run outside where we see a group of gryphons outside attacking the ship. But the alarming part is that there is a rather big one in the back of all of them.
Suddenly we hear Elia shout, “They're trying to take down the ship, you need to do something about it.”
The big gryphon lets out a roar which kills my eardrums, and then all the other gryphons attack. Iancu puts his hands on the ship and says, “For a 40m diameter around the ship there is zero gravity, use this to fight them but I need you to hurry up, I won’t be able to keep it up for long.
“No problem they are no match for us!”
