Chapter 47: Chapter 41 Sora
I punch it with everything I have. The impact reverberated through my skin, telling me it pierced through the invisible creature. Then, my arm felt the strange sensation of its insides twisting and moving.
I retract my arm from his insides, leaving the invisible creature severely wounded. I ask, "Is he dead?"
With her eyes almost closed by the gruesome scene I provoked, she responded, "N-NO! he is twitching on the floor... it is screeching in pain."
Without hesitation, I stomp the place where the creature should have fallen. "Now he should be dead," I declared, cleaning my hands. Dante did a few quick stretches to get used to it his body again, muttering, "Damn, I can't believe it's weird to use a human body. I couldn't even exert my full strength."
Weakened? is she WEAKENED?" The girl tried to comprehend what Dante's words meant.
As for Dante, he noted that magic isn't common here, but it exists because this invisible thing appeared. Before doing anything else, he decided to present himself. " Nice to meet you, my name is..." Dante suddenly stopped. Should he use his system name?
According to the system, I have two names: Dante, my main one, and Rainbow Dash, the transformation name. I'll probably use a different name when exploring worlds, and my original in the fountain, "Call me Raida!" Dante made the name by fusing both of his names, RAI-nbow DA-nte.
"Raida? that's... a curious name, you can call me Sora..." She paused before continuing with a mix of fear and excitement. "But what are you, and what was that thing?"
I replied, "Like I said earlier, you should know that kind of stuff, but I guess supernatural things aren't common."
After she said nothing else, Dante added, "So, basically, I saved your life, and I don't have a problem by sleeping alone in nature, and knowing it's really intrusive, can I stay in your home? I need to learn everything I can about this place."
...
...
...
Dante yelled while opening the door, "Coming inside." As the door of apartment 404 opened, a smell of bleach hit Dante's nose. It wasn't that bad, but it felt like someone poured the whole bottle of bleach into the bathroom.
Inside what his gaze caught were Piles of dirty clothes, empty food containers, and stacks of books strewn around the place. The kitchen was messy, with unwashed dishes piled high in the sink, forming a tower.
I couldn't help but comment, "You know, I expected this place to be a bit cleaner, no offense."
Sora nonchalantly replied, "No one comes in, so why even bother? I just keep it clean enough to avoid insects and pests."
Now that she says about it, the floor is too clean, contrasting sharply with the disorder around it. The stacked dishes had no food leftovers, and the bathroom looked surprisingly clean.
Dante, thinking about his plans, asked Sora, "No one is going to bat an eye for me being here? Because probably your family will assume it's weird that someone you just met decided to stay at your house."
Sora replied, assuring Dante, "I don't have many friends, and my family doesn't come often, so no, don't worry, and if they come, probably they'll call me first."
With a hint of excitement, Sora asked, "If it's not too much trouble, can you tell me what you are? You aren't human, even though you look like one. Are you an alien, a demon, or a mythical creature?"
Wait, I come from a faraway world, so technically speaking, I am an alien? "A bit from the first and more of the last."
With her fear evolving into curiosity, Sora continued questioning, "Can you use magic, or is it just super advanced science?"
I told her, "Well, it depends on what you perceive as 'magic.'" Sora quickly replied to him, "Spells or anything that defies logic."
"Yeah, my mere existence defies logic." A pair of wings made out of feathers snapped out of Dante's back, carrying a radiant blue tone and breaking a bit of the clothes in their way.
After doing the demonstration, he went to the nearest mirror to see how his wings looked and quickly realized something about himself.
"Wait, I'm not blue anymore," Dante observed the change that happened within him. "Only my wings are blue? and why do I still have a tail???" Dante's color changed to a peach instead of the usual blue that Rainbow Dash carries. He was thankful for this. After all, if you saw a blue person, you would freak out.
Ignoring what Dante said, she kept asking more questions, "Can you use telekinesis or teleportation?" Sora was interested in what this person could do. For her, the possibilities are limitless right now.
"No to both," I casually retrieved a cheap bottle of wine from my inventory. I chose it like this so it wouldn't affect me much. Unless I drank a 1000-gold wine, the probability of getting drunk is quite low.
Her eyes sparkled with excitement as she asked, "Did you just create that? Summon it? what did you do?" Dante, observing her enthusiasm, asked as he drank his wine, "Why are you so interested in this stuff?"
"What?!" Sora seemed almost offended by my question, "I just discovered the most incredible thing in the world MAGIC EXIST, and I was wondering, Can I learn it? is there a requiriment?"
From Dante's perspective, she looked like a child who had just discovered a new toy. I replied, "I'm sorry, but I'll have to extinguish your flame."
Before she could respond, I diverted the conversation, asking, "What do you do for a living?"
Sora responded, "I want to create a manga, but I'm a translator, mainly manga, manhuas, manhwas, and some light novels."
"Look, you should know that it isn't an easy task from all those histories you have read because you require talent and luck, and I don't have the qualifications nor the ability to teach you."
Sora responded to Dante with a small smile, "It was worth the try." even if she failed, it was better to ask it today than live with the lingering feeling of never asking it.
