Extra for a Reason

Chapter 12 | Master of the library 2

Terla looked around in an amazed manner.

All these glows surrounding her; some in the fire form, a drop of water, leaves, snow, and their elemental forms, made her feel she was finally someone.

'Can't I see them like you?'

'You can. If you desire them to show themselves, they will.'

'Ahh? Desire...?'

"Hello everyone. Please show yourselves."

With her words, thousands of figures appeared in place of the glows.

They sat on one knee, lowering their heads towards her and Anna.

"Wha..., everyone, please rise." Terla spoke up immediately but no one moved.

Instead, "You may all rise.", they all rose in unison.

'What? Didn't they say I am their master? How come they don't listen to me but you.'

'Who are you to be qualified to be their master? What have you done for them?'

'I...' Terla couldn't argue Anna's statement.

Terla looked at the glows group by group. Similar to Anna, the light spirits had light blonde hair, and golden eyes and wore white dresses with golden accessories, however, their glows were not as bright and shining as Anna. Beside them, were figures with hair as dark as midnight, skin like dark chocolate, and eyes that feel like the darkest abyss surrounded by smoke-like darkness. Fire spirits with red and orangey hair, eyes that burn like flames, and water spirits with ocean blue hair and aqua eyes.

And a contrasting group with spirits wearing all kinds of flower petals, dresses made of different kinds of leaves and some wearing earthy brown dresses.

'They are?'

'Earth spirits.'

'Unlike other elements, they are made up of different tribes.'

'Oh...'

'And what about those with smoky white hair?'

'Steam Spirits.'

'Steam...?' Terla was astounded.

'Those with snow white...'

'Snow Spirits.'

'What?'

'Stop wandering, you will know over time.'

"Hello.."

"Hello..."

Cute little voices rang behind her.

When she turned around, she saw some light spirits flying out from their group.

These little spirits looked younger compared to others and their glows were fainter.

They came in front of her and the little female spirit asked,

"Master, do you remember me? I accompanied you last time."

"Yes, yes, me too.", a male spirit beside her spoke up.

"We grew so much stronger, thanks to you, master.", he continued as he showed off his non-muscular arm.

*hee* *ke...ke*

The little spirits beside him laughed and Terla laughed with them.

*hymph*

"Bluffing...", a cheeky male voice came out at her back.

"Zephyr!!!" the female spirit from before shouted angrily as her hands reached out to his hair.

"Eleni...!" the spirits around her quickly called out and held her arms.
