Chapter 33 : Excitement


A month has elapsed since you wholeheartedly embraced your nekomata form, and during this time, you've delved deeper into the intricacies of your newfound powers. Each day unfurls fresh discoveries, unveiling the enigmatic tapestry of your abilities and illuminating the mysteries of your demonic lineage.

One captivating revelation pertains to your elemental and sub-elemental powers, intricately linked to the traits inherited from your demonic family. Whenever you wield these powers, distinctive auras adorn your tails, each representing a specific element. Watching these vibrant auras swirl and dance serves as a testament to your burgeoning mastery over these forces.

Remarkably, you've honed the ability to command multiple elements simultaneously, allowing you to manifest up to four distinct elemental powers at once. Your ceaseless training endeavors to stretch your limits further, with the ultimate goal of wielding all eight elements in perfect harmony. Progress may be gradual, but it is undeniable.

Your endearing cat form possesses its own unique charm. While in this form, you've discovered that you can channel the powers of up to two elements or sub-elements simultaneously. These manifestations are evident through the auras that envelop your squishy little paws and the subtle shimmer of your fluffy ears and tail. The sight warms your heart and imparts a profound sense of uniqueness.

And then there are the spells—an intriguing and inherently demonic trait. You've been diligently working on mastering the art of crafting and utilizing simple spells, relying on memorization and self-practice, sometimes even employing them to add a touch of challenge to Zoro's intense training sessions with the baboons.

A mischievous smile always graces your face when you use these spells, vividly recalling his reactions to your magical interventions.

Not that your father mind.

A more substantial discovery has stemmed from the memories you've acquired during your transformation. While you feel more at peace after absorbing Y/N's soul essence, you are aware that some memories remain elusive. A month of unwavering research has led you to a disquieting possibility: Dracula Y/N's soul essence may be dispersed across the vast ocean. The task of recovering all her past memories looms ahead, but this time, you don't perceive it as a burden. Instead, you're resolute in undertaking this journey, one soul essence at a time.

However, given your current grounding, you've decided to temporarily set this mission aside.

Another bewildering revelation centers around your newfound vulnerability to a particular crystal—one with the capacity to immobilize your powers. The fifth memory you gained during your transformation unveiled this weakness. A full week of intensive research was required to unravel the mystery surrounding this crystal.

Interestingly, your mother's notebooks and scrolls make no mention of it. The absence of this information has ignited intriguing questions, further fueling your curiosity.

You were deeply engrossed in your research on the spell called "Amor of the Heart." Alchemy tools and a variety of herbs were meticulously arranged on the table before you. The room was filled with the warm glow of candles, casting dancing shadows on the walls as you worked tirelessly to decipher the ancient incantations.

The sound of the door creaking open didn't escape your ears, and a fond smile graced your lips as you recognized Zoro's presence. It never ceased to amaze you how he managed to navigate his way to you, relying solely on the connection between your hearts.

You were his compass, guiding him even when you were physically apart.

It felt your heart with glee.

Zoro had taken a moment to admire your focused expression, appreciating the way your eyes sparkled with determination as you meticulously chopped the herbs. With a gentle smile, he decided to approach you, his steps light and silent.
