Voices in my head

Voices in my head

I was back in my sea of consciousness, everything was pitch black so I tried to remember what happened.

I had a fight with a fire elemental and Valeria died....I couldn't save her.

I was all alone there so I kept thinking about it until I notice a small spark forming in front of me.

"So, you're the man that I have formed a contract with." A woman said.

She had a fiery red hair, she also wore a golden kimono and her horns were protruding from her head, her horns were like that of an antler's.

"You're only so-so" she said arrogantly

"On what basis?" I retorted

"My basis" she said as she pointed at herself.

*sigh* I won't be able to win of this continues so I should just accept my defeat.

"Alright, you win, I'm Lyan Timberwolf" I should start by introducing myself

"Raija Stormraider" she arrogantly introduced herself.

"So you said we had a contract right? I don't remember signing one though."

"We had a contract in Thousand corpse mountain" she shook her head and continued

"Are all humans this stupid?"

My eyebrows twitched, this woman was too arrogant.

"Then may I ask what is your origin?"

She looked at me and sighed again

"You're really ignorant aren't you? She looked at me and continued

"Listen here, I'm a Legendary noble beast spirit" she explained.

"Legendary? " I tilted my head

"You know what? I'll just explain everything. There are 7 types of spirit beasts, they are common, rare, mythical, ancient, legendary, celestial, God. A common spirit can keep evolving to the ancient-class but they can only attain nobility once they reach the God-class but in my case, the nobility title was inherited."

I somewhat understand

"You're a legendary class?" I was somewhat doubtful.

"Of course I am, now grovel weak human" she was too full of herself

"Ok, how do I cancel the contract?" I can't do this, she was too arrogant.

"What do you mean cancel the contract? Are you cutting ties with me?! Well let me tell you something, you're not cutting ties with me, I'm cutting ties with you! " she said as she hmphed.

"Look I can't really do this if you're too..." I can't finish my sentence, nobles like her tend to have too much pride and will retaliate once someone tramples on their pride.

"Too what?" She looked at me as lightning coiled around her body.

"Arrogant" I steeled myself and said.

"You little brat! " she said as numerous thunderstruck me. It was painful

"Tch...so you think you can bully me just because you're stronger?! " I grit my teeth and roared.

The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

"Yeah, in this world strength reigns supreme! " she said as she amped up her attack on me

It was excruciatingly painful, I could only grit my teeth but some chains appeared out of nowhere and constricted her.

"Who are you?! Come out! " she roared out

"I won't let you hurt him any longer" a sweet melodious voice rang out as a beautiful woman appeared in front of me.

"Who are you?" I asked as I struggled to stand back up.

"Lyan... I am Rea" she said as she supported me.

"What? " I was surprised

"So you're weapon gained consciousness, good for you! " Raija sarcastically said.

"I awoke during our last battle" Rea said.

"Then Lea..? " I asked

"She's still asleep"

"But how did you guys form a consciousness?" Weapons forming consciousness was extremely rare.

"The bones we were made out of was the bone of the Bakunawa..."

Bakunawa?! This was a dragon that the ancient natives in my past life believed in. But why is it here?

"Isn't the Bakunawa known for...the sun and moon?"

"Yes, Master Lyan is correct. I am now Rea as my master has named me, Rea the moon eater"

Didn't I just receive a powerful weapon?

"So you're also a dragon, then let go of me" Raija protested

"Why would I do that?" Rea was so sweet earlier but when she faced Raija her eyes went dark...don't tell me she's one of those women....

"You see, master Lyan was hurt due to your attack right?" Her eyes! It completely went dark.

"Yeah, so? " Raija was as arrogant as ever.

"I reaaaaaallllly LOVE master Lyan and can't tolerate anyone hurting him" yup she's a yandere.

"Hey, what are you doing?!" Raija was then tortured by Rea...

I could only blankly watch as Rea smiled like an angel towards me and torture Raija at the same time.

This continued on until I started to feel dizzy and felt myself leave my sea of consciousness and slowly open eyes to Valeria who was holding onto my hand.

Wait, Valeria?! Isn't she dead?!

"Valeria?... Weren't you..?" I asked confused

"Were you that eager for me to die? " she replied.

"Thank God you're alive" to be honest I'd rather thank Grimm.

"Let me go tell the others that you've woken up" Valeria said as she left.

After half an hour Valeria came back

"How'd it go?" I asked

"Your dad will come later" Valeria replied but it seemed like she was struggling with something.

"Where's Mira and Arachne? " normally they would be here the moment they hear that I woke up.

Valeria was quiet for a few seconds before finally speaking.

"Mira has exhausted herself and is resting in her tent while Arachne has been missing...for 6 days"

"What?!" I was shocked, something must've happened to her, I must look for her.

I tried to stand up but my was still aching all over so every movement I made was equivalent to having my body hit by a hammer. Valeria quickly supported me and tried to make lay down but...

"Valeria let me go and look for Arachne" I'm worried sick.

"No! Lay down and rest! "

"I've been sleeping for 6 days, I'm fully recovered" I lied

"You forgot my skill [eye of truth]"

I was looking for another reason when suddenly a messenger entered

"Young master Lyan" he said as he kneeled.

"At ease" I'm not used to these kinds of stuff

"Someone is claiming to be your partner just outside the gates" the messenger respectfully reported.

"Valeria, could you take me there?" I asked Valeria.

"No" she quickly replied.

"Please...it might be Arachne" I reasoned out with her.

She sighed and shook her head before helping me back up.

I saw Arachne by the gate so I quickly called out to her

When she saw me she also came rushing and hugged me

"Where were you? I was worried sick" I quickly scolded

"I trained for you" she said meekly.

"Tell me next time, I will go with you" I learned the pain of watching someone close to you suffer in the hands of the enemy, Arachne probably thought the same.

Come to think, I still haven't answered her confession...It's time right? I shouldn't make a lady wait and besides, we've been through thick and thin. I also heard that polygamy here is accepted...

'Blue, I'm sorry your husband is weak'

As I thought of these things, I noticed that her lower body was that of a human's.

"Wait.. Arachne...your body... " so she's fully human now!

"You only noticed just now? " she asked with a satisfied smile.

"I guess I was too worried to notice" I laughed as I scratched my cheeks.

"Hey Arachne, I should've told you this sooner..." I leaned in closer to her face and kissing her before saying

"I love you too"

Tears rolled down her face as she hugged me and smiled

"Those words...are what I've been wanting to hear" she really was waiting huh

"I'm sorry to have made you wait" I smiled apologetically.

"No, even if I had to wait forever, I would still wait"

"Sorry to disappoint"

"Master how many children do you want?" asked Arachne

What?

It took me a few more seconds than usual to process everything.

'This bitch let me at her! ' I heard Rea shout out in my head. Wait she can hear it?!

"Isn't it a bit early? " I asked.

"Yes..master is right, I must first consult with Aunt. Emille."

After talking with Arachne for a few minutes, we headed off to Mira's tent.
