Chapter 12 - shade.

We were lucky to survive the last attack, its attack felt like it was a set up but there were people around.

The attack came from above and it was way too powerful for the others to survive, and it seemed like it also took out a lot from the attacker. 

when I finally came back to my senses Saki was the one looking after me on her lap. The imperialist had set us up, but I had no strength to do anything about it, so we just went out.

When we were going back the teachers were so anger about the setup, they could do nothing about it since the imperial palace had them under their control but.

Saki was by my side the whole way there and Miya couldn't even look at me. She looked like she felt bad about what happened.

Saki never told anyone that I was the one who blocked the massive attack, but she just sat there silent and looked after me.

The teachers thought that it was her who blocked it and I was just in the way since I was pushed away buy the shock wave from before.

saki told them that a person from the palace came and help with deflecting the energy wave but they never told her who they were.

I fell asleep after that and woke up when we got home. It was a little hard to explain what happened to my mother and she took it out on her father for putting me on the trip in the first place.

Lilith was just angry that someone tried to kill the person that saved her and said that she would do anything to kil the imperialist for setting me up.

I just thought they were taking it a little too far, but I finally figured out where the foreign entity was, but I was still too week to take it down.

It took a lot out of me, and it would take at least some years to get to my full strength again. I had to get power back soon but the only way to do that was to get some sort of connection to the spiritual realm to get the connection to my original form but doing that would leave me defenseless.

Doing it manually would take too long, but it was the safest way to do it since it wouldn't risk me getting killed I the prosses.

Training Lilith and Saki would be my most top priority and making sure that this village is not left defenseless.

My job was to protect the humans but now I had to take out some in the prosses.

The next day I went out to find some quiet place to try and get some power from the atmosphere around me. It was working but the force around me was still too weak to recover fully.

I could just go to a more secluded area and try to get my connection to my original form, but it would cause a pules that could be felt from miles away and anyone who is not a normal human would be able to sense it.

It would take at least a month to get my power back from my original form, but it would expose me and leave the village defenseless.

Putting the village and the other at risk would be a big mistake and they were the only people I could trust in this world and letting them die would mean that this world would end if I lived it to people like the imperialist, they would lead this world into chaos.

I went back home after I tried to get some mana from the earth for about the whole day and when I got home, I found Lilith training by herself.

When she saw me, she just said hi and went straight back to her training. 

When I fell asleep that night it felt like I was in this dark void, endless and pulling me into some sort of light and when I went in, I saw the world being completely eaten up by this huge monster. I saw my mother, Lilith, Saki and Miya being swallowed up and I woke up but there was a tier on my cheek.

In the morning saki came by to check on me, I was still too week to sense her coming and for the first time she actually knocked on the door and came into the house.

My mom showed her to my room, and she found me still in bed. she saw me and sat down on a chair that was close to the bed.

She saw my sword and asked how I'm able to carry it around when it's so heavy. I told her that it had some of my power in the gemstone on it then it hit me.

I remembered that the whole reason why I couldn't restore my power fully is because I was still recovering from my sword taking most of my power to make it lighter and also function.

my sword too most of my power but if I took it bac it would just be a normal sword again and if that happens the condescend metal particles would heat up and cause un explosion and I would also be left without a weapon.

I just left the sword alone but if I tried to use it in my current state it would sense my body strength is out and it would use its own power to function to operate but doing that means that the sword would be stronger than the wielder and basically it would be wielding me.

 Saki saw probably thought that I was feeling down because when I gave up on taking the power from my sword, she came closer and embraced me.

She told me that there was no reason to feal down and that her and the other were ready to help me because they were all helped by me at some point and they would do anything to help.

an idea came into my head when she said that, and I remembered that I could do something else that I could do to regain m power.

 My mother had a strong connection to my maid body and if could take a hold of that connection i could get y power back and talk to my rea form.

I told Saki to call my mother to my room and when mother came, I told her that I need her to regain my power.

But when I said that she wasn't surprised and told me that she already knew. She said he told her that one day I would need to get some sort of connection to the person that set me here.

Turn out that he put a short cut to get to him, but I had no idea that he put it there.

she told me to take a hold of her arm and when I did all I could see was darkness. I suddenly heard a voice telling me that I finally had time to talk.

It was my original body.
