Chapter 34: Starts Now
Tilting his head, the apprentice man showed a confused look, "Wilted body?"
"Don't play dumb, I already checked this body, and this body will not last long." Liberaine really wants to get the collar of an apprentice man, and squeeze him dry to get the information she can get.
"Huh? It is your body though?... Although the appearance is different, what's inside is like a carbon copy of you on Earth." The apprentice man moves his hand to his chin, he begins to think of something.
Although she was confused, Liberaine didn't answer anymore, she waited for the explanation of the clumsy man before her.
After a minute of thinking, the apprentice man's eye sticks to Liberaine's body, looking up and down as if he wants to check her body. Liberaine shivered, "What?", the apprentice moved his gaze to Liberaine's chest. Three lines appeared on Liberaine's temple, she felt that she is some kind of goods and the apprentice man is the customer. She stomped her foot angrily, moving up her hand and forming it to a fist, she said, "You want this?"
The apprentice quickly shook his head, "No.. no... I just want to ask some questions? Ca-ca.."
"Ask." Liberaine said without an expression.
"Then..*cough*" After clearing his throat, he looked straight to her with a serious expression,
"•••• ••••• ••••• •••••• ••• ••••• •••• ••... •••"
Liberaine is slightly startled from the serious expression of the apprentice man. After hearing what the apprentice man, her face darken, "I .. don't understand. What are you doing?", 'Does he want me to know that he is so knowledgeable that he knows this world's language, while I am not?'
The apprentice man stilled, "I am right!! You didn't ignore me in the past, you just.. you just .." With his eyes sparkling he continued, "Forget about yourself."
Liberaine's attention now is all on what the apprentice words. "Forget? I think you are wrong, I didn't forget anything, I didn't forget your promises, being reborn to an elf race, live a well life, having an overpowered character in a system-like world, but what did I get now? Not elf... don't have a cheat power." She gritted her teeth while saying that, she moved her gaze to apprentice man, only to find out the widened smile of the apprentice man, Liberaine saw his grin, no ounce of pity at all. 'What now?'
"So you didn't forget about me hehehe... I am happy to hear that." He smiled innocently.
(」ﾟﾛﾟ)｣ 'Damn this boy, did he even listen to me?'
Liberaine swallowed her words, "Explain."
The apprentice man looked behind Liberaine, he swirled his index finger and the formed water soon became a water bird, the water bird flew to Liberaine and pecked her forehead.
Liberaine felt dizzy at the same time she felt a cool sensation engulfing her body and mind. Her mind mysteriously calmed down and after the dizziness disappeared, wild letters and unfamiliar words circled around her, like they wanted to play with her, the words and letters one by one went into her forehead.
Liberaine is amazed, it's like every word that comes to her mind immediately becomes familiar to her, she utters a word and she easily understands what she just said. Liberaine right now is in awe, she keeps thinking that if every person has a skill like this to transfer the idea or knowledge to the other person, passing a board exam will become easy, even if your eyes are closed.
'Someone's coming. I will talk to you later.'
The voice is imprinted on her mind, the water bird suddenly disappears leaving Liberaine alone in this place.
*chunk*
The gate opened and a woman entered, "Ohh.. Sorry for waiting too long little lady, there are too many children who are taking their ceremony today." The woman said to Liberaine.
She patted Liberaine's head and said, "Rene must be bored right? Don't worry we can play after you've been legally registered."
Liberaine showed no expression on her face but deep inside she was excited. The unknown language to her becomes crystal clear. She can now understand. Still she keeps praising the skill that the apprentice used to her.
After standing up, the woman held Liberaine's left hand, and began talking. "It's a pity.. I don't know if you understand me, but I want you to know that as long you are here, you are safe." She then began walking leading the little girl.
Unknownst to her, the little girl who was walking by her side, who showed no emotion when she first came to this place, now has a wide grin on her face .
