Haru here, it’s not like we have much choice since we’re now stuck in the forest cave. I’m actually having Ai help me carve into the cave a kitchen for better use at making food (sweets). Also when I asked Iris about the races in the upper worlds being such cheat she only answered they were born with such lineage don't ask me how it’s possible. Ask their creator the gods and goddesses for making such races. Anyway back to what I was doing, helping Ai create the kitchen out of stones.
“Cool, she’s an automation I’ve heard from mother stories of them before. But I never did understand what she meant by our races created homunculus with aura and build the body from scratch.” (Krow)
I flinched as if she’s telling me that Ai and Chi were failures compared to what they could create with aura. Ava put her hand on my shoulder as if to calm me down. The one talking to me was a little girl which was trying to praise me. Nina just looked confused on the term homunculus. Not that we blame her, magic can also create such a thing. But to create it from scratch from how Krow voices it was impossible. You’d need a fetus for that but from what she’s saying it’s recreating a body in full adult form and adding aura to replace its soul as an energy source.
My eyes lit up at her idea, Ava groaned. She knew the girl had my attention when she brought up the topic.
“Why are you looking more tired Ava.” (Nina)
“Because master is probably thinking of creating my sister through such process. Which brings me to say her sleeping mode is a good thing. She’s underneath the cabin behind the school. One wrong step and she can destroy our world.” (Ai)
“How come I have no memories of this mistress.” (Chi)
“Because you’re prototype was destroyed by her (Enma) going crazy.” (Ava)

“Ok stop there. You’re saying she’s creating an evil robot that is underneath near our school. Are you two out of your minds, how can you let her.” (Nina)
“Is that all you got from what she said. Did you miss the part of if made wrongly the thing could destroy our entire world.” (Ava)
“Eh, you’re kidding right? And you let her do so.” (Nina)
“It’s not like we have a choice in that. She did create Ai and help make Chi.” (Ava)
You two know that I can hear you but we still need for the girl to teach us how to use Aura.
“Can you teach us how to use aura.” (Haru)
“I can’t see why not you did save me from beasts. Plus my ancestors did create aura and teach it to some humans before. So why not.” (Krow)
Wow that was easy but knowing she’s 8 years old only I’m more worried if she’s getting tricked by others. But seriously she nodded to herself as if it was simple. Yet my instincts were screaming this girl is an idiot for not knowing Aura probably had more uses than just reviving the dead or creating a homunculus.
“Aura is actually in all living things, it’s not just a life force. It’s the essence of everything around us.” (Krow)
So she’s gonna explain what it is first. Seems about right since we’re beginners.
“Every living and nonliving things have it inside them but don’t know how to use it.” (Krow)
She shows us by making her whole body glow silver as she sucked in her breath as if to show us how easily it could be done. But if anything I know it’s far from simple.
“Aura is life itself, it’s something born with nature. It’s not something like Ki, Chakra, or Qi. Out of these three the two of them would have heavenly laws strike you down.” (Krow)
“Wait why am I also learning this.” (Nina)
“Because this idiot got dragged in with us other 4.” (Ava)
“I’m not an idiot, I’ll have you know that I just love food more.” (Nina)
“So she admits she’s an idiot after all.” (Haru)
Krow is giggling due to our small talk. Yet she understands that Nina loves food since I was the one cooking sweets mostly.
“Ah this creamy, buttery yet sweetness just melts in my mouth along with the chocolate coating. Oh this heavenly taste of this sweet bun is so soft yet it’s so crunchy at the same time. It leaves such a good balance of the sweet taste in my mouth.” (Nina)
I wanted to retort what are we in your gourmeting online shows now. But I said nothing as I ate the sweets I made along with Krow who was silently delighted. As for Ava she just stared outside as if searching for something. I’m sure she’s gonna need blood soon. Once Krow was done she went back to the lessons.
“Aura is actually just an invisible limb we all have. It’s just that others forgot about it once they’re born.” (Krow)
