Chapter 31: Connection



Chapter 31: Connection

The fighting wholly ended by the time Deathbringer got eliminated. There were a lot of injured, some even seriously but no one died. For that reason, Witchdoctor was on stand by and took care of the most grievous wounds. But her powers weren't infinite.

Which meant Sera could continue her conversation with Bea in the infirmary. Both got injured but were healing nicely.

"So, miss tree lady you photosyntesis as well? Or maybe you are more closer to a mushroom. Are you chemotrof perchance?" Said Sera while laughing.

"Ha-ha very funny. Remind me to never tell you any secrets of mine ever again." Said Bea with a beautiful laugh of her own.

"But I'm actually so curious about the description of your ability. I don't know if you realized it, but those descriptions probably hold deeper meaning than we think."

"For example how do these Watches know anything? Do they have some kind of inner archive with all the information? Or do they just generate them? That seems very unlikely since the descriptions are too unique and well made. And why are you staring at me like that?"

Bea was smiling at her with that beautiful mouth of hers.

"I just didn't expect that you would be interested in Realm History. And you figured it out all on your own. Cute and smart!"

Sera ignored the remark and focused on the first sentence.

'Realm History? What is that? I never heard of anything even remotely similar.'

"What is Realm History?" She asked with embarrassment.

Bea noticed it and said: "No need to feel like that! What you figured out on your own is really amazing, probably only a handful of people would be able to do what you did!"

Bea took a deep breath and continued.

"Realm History is what it says, the history of the Realms and the creature's dwelling within. You probably figured it out already but the Realms were actually places where people or creatures lived, but something happened and they all became monsters."

Sera was very interested in this topic.

'The Realms had other living beings in it whom weren't monsters? What happened to them? Is it that Madness I read about a bunch of times?'

She was about to ask it when Bea said.

"You know I'm not the best person for this conversation. I didn't really pay attention in those classes."

Sera was surprised yet again.

"Classes? What do you mean classes? What kind of school did you go that they thought about these stuff?" Sera said while laughing.

Bea laughed as well and said: "It's a special school for Evolved. Everyone new goes through it. After we reach Castleburg we will probably have to go to school."

Sera and Bea both began dying of laughter. After a minute they finally stopped.

"Okay, let me get this straight, I kill a bunch of monsters, one monster that even killed a Stellar and I still have to go to school?"

They chuckled again at that, then Bea answered.

"Yeah, I know it sounds very weird coming from our point of view, but it is really helpful for new Evolved. I myself only were able to go for a couple of weeks before the Fall of Copen but learned some important information that helped me later on."

"Must be nice to get some help." Sera didn't dare to look at Bea and see the pity there.

She must've noticed her worsened mood because she changed the subject.

"Hey, you asked for the description of my ability and stuff. There is actually a way to share our status windows and be able to access it anytime."

Her face was red while she said it for some reason. But Sera didn't care, she was too excited to learn more about the other Realm's history.

"Really? I never heard of something like that, why don't more people use it?"

Bea at this point was blushing so much, that Sera started to be concerned.

'Why would she be so embarrassed? Does her status window contain some very awkward information? No, probably not, then why?'

Before she could continue these thoughts Bea finally explained.

"Well... It's because... Huhh, it's because only lovers do it usually..."

'Okay... didn't expected that.'

"Uhm... We don't have to do it if you don't want to... It might give the wrong impression to others."

At this point Sera was blushing just as much as Bea. Neither of them could look at each other in the eye.

"No... You want to read descriptions... And I'm kind of curious of yours as well... So if you want to we can go for it..."

Sera made a big sigh and said: "Okay... How do we do it?"

"It's quite simple actually, we just touch our Watches together and press yes when it asks if we want to connect our Watches."

"Let's do this." Said Sera.

Bea stood up and sat next to Sera on her bed. They looked into each other's eyes, then Sera reached out and grabbed Bea's hand pressing their Watches together. A pop up came on both, it said: 'Would you like to connect to Seraphine's/Bea's Watch?'. They both pressed 'yes'.

Suddenly a flood of information appeared on both their Watches and the voice read it up in her head.

"Name: Bea

Title: Queen of Nature

1st Kill: World Tree, Horror of the 1st Tier

Life Essence Absorbed: 289/1000

Abilities: <Nature's Call>

Passive Abilities: <One With Nature>

Heritage: <Seed>

Items: <Branch of Life> <Melting Point>"

They were both silent for a long time. Sera read through Bea's main status window a dozen times, but her eyes stopped on one line: <Seed>.

'Why didn't she tell me she unlocked her Heritage? And why does hers not say 1st transformation? I ask later, let's start reading descriptions.'

Sera smiled and began reading. Neither of them realized that they were still holding hands.
