Reborn As The Spirit King Chapter 9 Part1

Chapter 9 - To Paulstein (1)

Arelia stared at Jade with eyes filled with curiosity and interest.

It was to the point where it was getting a little uncomfortable.

However, unable to realize this, Arelia began walking towards Jade.

Ggyoo?

"Oh?"

Hwid's scales lifted as it could feel that Jade was uncomfortable.

It then lowered its tail and began to cry in a sharp tone.

However, even with Hwid's threat, Arelia wasn't shocked but rather amused with what she was seeing.

A baby drake's threat was nothing more than cute for Arelia.

Grrrrrrr!

Realizing this, Hwid now raised its lips and bared its fangs.

As it did, lightning began to form in its mouth, ready to fire off a breath at any moment.

"It's okay, don't get so excited."

Ggyoo??

Different from Clara, although Arelia was 100% elf, Hwid's actions were vastly different. And watching this, Jade smiled and began to stroke Hwid's head.

As he did, the lightning within Hwid's mouth instantly disappeared and it immediately began to relax.

"This child is quite cute."

"We were somehow able to form a relations.h.i.+p with each other."

"That's quite the uncommon relations.h.i.+p. But, if it was a situation outside of your control, I completely understand and will leave that child to you."

Arelia's eyes moved from Hwid back to Jade.

However, her eyes were still fiery.

She instantly knew Jade wasn't a simple summoner so she was burning with fighting spirit.

"I'm flattered."

"So, I was thinking, would we be able to spar?"

"Spar?"

"Yes!"

Arelia's eyes grew hotter.

As a War Chief of the War Elves, her fighting spirit was burning.

However, Jade appeared to be at a loss.

"We're immediately leaving tomorrow, so I don't think that's a good idea."

"Ah….."

"But don't you think we'll have other opportunities in the future, since we'll be moving together?"

"That's true. Today isn't the only day. Then let's at least make a verbal promise."

Arelia smiled brightly.

She believed they would one day be able to fight as Jade hadn't refused her request.

And, for her, waiting wasn't an issue.

"Isn't there someone else besides me who's strong?"

"Ah, you're talking about Sword Master Heinze? I don't think he's fully recovered yet. And, even if he does, it'll be difficult for him to show me his full powers."

"I, is that true?"

With Arelia's definitive answer, Laney and Lloyd simultaneously yelled out.

They were both surprised because this was something they hadn't heard till now.

"You knew as well didn't you Jade?"

"Yes, He overdid it with his aura when he still had heavy internal injuries. It might've been different when he was younger, but I'm sure it's quite the burden for him now."

"That's right."

"Ah……."

The siblings simultaneously heaved a heavy sigh.

However, even though it was regrettable, there was nothing they could do about it.

He himself probably already knew that truth, but this left the two to miss one of the most important facts.

"Then I'll see you tomorrow."

"Please take care."

"Hoho! What's there to worry about."

In response to Jade's polite words, Arelia smiled and escorted the siblings out of the room.

However, the siblings were so shocked from the previous statement, they were instead instinctively dragged out of the room with Arelia in the lead.

"So chaotic."

-I don't like her!

"Don't spirits like elves?"

Jade breathed a light sigh and walked into his bedroom.

He was planning to rest for a little while.

-She keeps flirting with you! Besides, she's stupidly glamorous!

"It seemed like it. Her affinity to spirits didn't seem amazing for an elf."

-I'm sure she's contracted to a high-ranking wind spirit. Just one. The others are all just at the intermediate level.

Elestra added.

As a water spirit of the highest level, she could immediately tell with just one look.

"She seems to have noticed it too."

-I'm sure she's noticed it much more than Clara. Their levels are incomparable.

"That's true."

Jade agreed.

There was a saying that said, "you see as much as you know".

Just as he had figured out Arelia, he was sure she had figured him out as well.

-There's nothing special about being an elf. One must at least be a High Elf if they want to compare against you.

– That's how amazing our Jade is! Ahem!

"Now that we're out of the Great Forest, the people and species that we meet are becoming more and more diverse."

From a prince and princess, to a Sword Master, a dwarf, half-elf, and now a War Elf.

It hasn't even been half a year since they left the Great Forest.

And it was no exaggeration to say they could go into war tomorrow.

-It's absolutely necessary to experience different things to reach higher stages of your training.

-We also get to explore the world at the same time~ It hasn't changed much from before, but as expected, the Human World is so fun. So exciting and electrifying!

Ggyoo! Ggyooooo!!

Watching Celestine swimming in the air as she spoke, Hwid attempted to copy her.

However, it looked much easier than it seemed.

As a wind spirit, Celestine could manipulate the air as if she were breathing, but that wasn't the case for Hwid.

It just appeared to be flopping around in the air.

Gyyooahhh!

Hwid yelled out in frustration.

It was unhappy with the fact that it couldn't use its body the way it wanted to.

However, to Jade and the two spirits, Hwid appeared extremely cute.

-Ogu ogu. Our little Hwid.

-Hehe.

Celestine and Elestra stared at Hwid as if they were staring at their own child.

Every bit of Hwid's actions were too cute for them.

"It's okay. It's normal for it to be hard since it's your first time. The more you do it, the better you'll become."

Ggyoo!

With Jade's support, Hwid clasped its front paws as if to encourage itself.

Then, Hwid continued its attempts.

-I'll help you!

-Me too.

The two spirits flew towards Hwid as they saw that it wouldn't give up.

And, seeing all this, Jade stared at them with warm eyes.
