Hunt For A Spirit

Start from the beginning
                                    

"𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫'𝐬 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭. 𝐇𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐬 𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐬.", I remained silent, trying to comprehend Naberius's confession.

"Stormbearer? Do you mean Tristan? Why would he be killing spirits in the dead of the night? And without us?", I muttered, getting suspicious of the ravenette starting to cloud my mind.

"You said he was in a trance. What type of trance do you think was he subjected to, Naberius?", I asked the wolf.

"𝐀𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐈 𝐝𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐫.", Naberius is a wolf similar to Cerberus, has a barrier skill so he's categorized as a guardian. So if he's a guardian, then the closest thing to knowing about these hypnotizing shit is Lilin.

"Wynn!!"

Startled out of my thought, I turned around instinctively. Tristan's voice cut through the forest, loudly pronouncing my missing self.

"You are dismissed, Naberius.", I said before quickly taking off back to camp.

I could see from afar Tristan calling for me, circling our camp in search of me. Stepping on a twig, Tristan quickly looked in my direction that I'm sure his neck would've snapped.

Finally reaching the ravenette, I panted as I held out my hand. Tristan only looked at me skeptically, his face devoid of emotions as he stared me down.

"Care to clarify where you've been?", he said steadily, with no fucking stops in between.

"I uh.. was checking the border!", I stammered. Of course I know it won't work! This man here just went back to sleep and then woke up to find me gone!

Tristan raised his brow not convinced in the slightest. Which is understandable.

He sighed aloud, grabbing my hand before turning around. "You shouldn't be up before dawn," he said as we trotted back to camp. "–You'll disturb Linda's sleep, and you do know what will happen if she wakes up fatigued?"

I hummed, my eyes drilled to the back of his head. I'm curious as to why he doesn't sleep much, and why he mass massacred spirits.

Alas I couldn't answer those questions, and asking this guy would raise his own suspicions against me.

When we got back to camp Tristan didn't immediately go to sleep. He went to the smothered campfire and began sorting out the wood. While I went to pick some berries I found near our camp, in line of Tristan's sight so he doesn't get worried.

But hey! At least I didn't get bonked on the head.

The sun has breached the forest horizon, the sound of life finally coming alive. I saw a pale hand push the curtain to our tent away, revealing a fresh and definitely did-not-just-wake up Damian!

He looks like he got up early and had time to smoothen his bedhead, wash his face, iron his clothes and apply make up.

College me would love to know his secret. I do too but like- I'm in a cutesy prince's body- That serves as motivation to keep up my appearances.

"Good morning Damian.", Tristan and I greeted the redhead in unison, his voice flat while my voice was high pitched. The redhead smiled gently, returning our greeting.

Not long after Linda woke up. And when I saw her, I fucking know what woman is so arrogant with me.

She looks like a damn fucking enchantress! I'll be honest, that body of hers would make any man swoon and and any girl zealous.

College me would love a friend like her.

Once the last two woke up, me and Tristan quickly finished out current task. Tristan was originally cooking just now was now setting a few plates on giant leaves.

And me? I was checking my bow and my arrow. Gotta make sure these strings are tight.

I also was experimenting on creating pure crystal arrows. Sadly, I couldn't shape the whole thing. But! I had spontaneously created a new skill!

It was the ability to create small objects, and as I tested it I could make a scalpel, mini scissors and ornaments. It also has the property to create a thin layer of translucent wall around me.

And I call it, [Totem]!

Yeah yeah I know, it sounds lame. But I didn't know what to name it!

Bet other crystal users only have healing/support skills. The names would be so lame! So much lamer than mine!

Basically, this new skill of mine can create an irradiant shield. Marvelous~

Damian called me, handing me a plate of something similar to bacon and eggs with bread.

As usual, it tastes like heaven! The savory and chewy piece of meat exploded in my mouth, my mouth watering even more. The egg was perfectly cooked, its yolk jiggly and thick.

A simple breakfast is so good! Maybe because I'm hungry.

After that, I took the plates and pots to a nearby water source, washing it thoroughly before collecting some drinking water.

When I came back, the others were strapping themselves with their weapons. Tristan looks all cool with his daggers by his hip, with his poker face and all. Damian was inserting some capsule thing in his staff and Linda. Well she was applying some lotion on her skin. Probably sunblock.

Damian smiled to our way gently, looking like a proud dad. "Tristan you go north, Linda you go east. I'll go west. We'll cover more ground if we do that.", he gave us orders and the two people nodded their head.

"Remember, we are here to exterminate the Wilderbeast. I'll warn you again, do not come in contact with it without the others. Now go."
