Chapter 46

It has been almost a month in Limbo since Idan and Arabel began their ascension trial and the integration of new bloodlines.

All this time, Eulalia and Nemo did not stop watching and guarding them. Milica visited them from time to time, checking on their condition, and sometimes left her house to strengthen the protective spells she had created.

After the cocoons underwent drastic changes, there were no other changes other than a change in Nemo's behavior.

At first, he meditated under Idan's cocoon, but two weeks later he moved under Arabel's cocoon.

When Nemo was under Idan's cocoon, Milica began to suspect Idan's bloodline, which he was exposed to. She also wondered why the spirit inside Nemo tends to absorb the energy emitted by the cocoon.

At first, Milica was puzzled, because, as far as she knew, the spirit absorbs only the energy of its "parent", whom she chose. Therefore, she expected that the spirit would only absorb Nemo's energy.

However, despite this, the spirit greedily absorbed the energy coming from Idan. When Milica first found out about this, her face took on a strange expression. She began to think,

"Will Izzy really consider Nemo and Idan her parents when she fully matures and overcomes her "embryo" stage?"

Imagining this, Milica quickly shook her head.

"No way! This can't be happening!" she began to deny her strange and frightening fantasies.

Then she began to look for an answer that could satisfy her curiosity and banish these thoughts from her mind.

After studying Idan's condition and Nemo's existence, Milica came to the conclusion that Idan was probably awakening the Alpha bloodline. Only Alphas could match the bloodline of the Valkyries and compete with them on equal terms.

And the fact that Izzy is so drawn to this energy is explained by the fact that the energy coming from the cocoon does not belong to anyone — it is the pure energy of the Alpha bloodline.

Milica was well aware that Nemo's sealed bloodline originated from the Alpha bloodline.

When she received an answer that satisfied her, she was finally able to get rid of her strange fantasies and relax. She couldn't accept that the spirit she revered as a child of nature would be born thanks to the energy of two young men.

In two weeks, Izzy quickly absorbed the energy of Idan's bloodline, and then immediately switched to the energy emitted by Arabel's cocoon, which surprised Milica even more.

No matter how much she thought, she couldn't find a reasonable explanation for this phenomenon. Nemo also didn't understand why Izzy had switched to this energy.

Izzy herself claimed that the energy emanating from Arabel's cocoon is unique and attracts her in the same way as the energy of Idan's cocoon. Even after absorbing enough of the energy of Idan's cocoon, she was still attracted to the energy emitted by Arabel's cocoon.

Nemo couldn't help but obey the little spirit's demand.

He didn't understand how he had managed to form a symbiotic contract with Izzy. When he came to his senses inside Limbo, Izzy was already by his side.

At first, Nemo hoped that Izzy knew who he was, because he hadn't remembered anything since he woke up. But contrary to his expectations, Izzy didn't know anything either. She also came to her senses inside Limbo.

At first, Nemo hid Izzy's presence because both he and she understood that she was a unique being. But when Milica noticed him and saved him from the outsiders who enslaved him when he was unconscious, she immediately sensed Izzy's presence.

In the end Milica became his mentor and told him who the spirits were. From her words, Nemo learned that spirits are unique creatures born of nature itself. At birth, they are a tiny bundle of light and soul that instinctively seeks a "parent" in order to establish a symbiotic contract with him.

Milica was amazed when Izzy's spirit chose Nemo as her "parent." She had never heard of spirits choosing intelligent beings as their "parents" before.

Nemo was also puzzled by the word "parent."

Milica briefly explained to him what was going on.

The spirit establishes a symbiotic contract with the chosen being in order to move on to the next stage of its cultivation — the "Embryo" stage. At this stage, the spirit will coexist with its "parent" as a single whole. Through the contract, the spirit acquires its identity based on the identity of its "parent" and inherits all of his memories.

Milica assumed that Izzy doesn't remember anything because Nemo most likely signed a contract with her after he lost his memory. Because of this, Izzy was unable to inherit his memories and knowledge, and gained only her pure and innocent personality.

Due to the fact that she has signed a contract with Nemo, she has already begun to form a personality similar to a small human child who learns and develops quickly.

Now that she was absorbing the energy of Idan and Arabel, her cultivation speed increased many times. At this rate, Izzy will soon move on to the next stage of her cultivation. Remembering this stage, Milica couldn't help but smile.

The next stage was called "Birth". The spirit was completely transformed into the race of its "parent" and transformed into a newborn of that race.

Milica had not yet heard of a spirit being born with the help of an intelligent being, so she had no ideas about this. She only scared Nemo by saying that at this rate he would soon become a "father."

Nemo was stunned and couldn't believe his ears. He wanted to stop Izzy immediately so that she would stop absorbing energy. After all, he wasn't ready to become a father yet, especially since they hadn't even left Limbo.

However, Izzy stubbornly stood her ground and demanded that Nemo allow her to continue absorbing energy. She assured him that sooner or later it would happen, and the sooner she moved on to the next stage, the sooner she could become useful to him.

In the end, Nemo gave up. Milica and Eulalia, seeing his helplessness, couldn't help but smile. They themselves wanted to see the birth of a spirit from a being like Nemo.

After a month of silence, both cocoons in which Idan and Arabel were imprisoned began to throb more strongly. Cracks appeared on their surfaces, foreshadowing their imminent awakening.
