A Special Encounter With An Imperial Princess As I Get Reincarnated To Isekai

Extraordinary Talent

Satoru soon woke up, feeling dazed and disoriented. Blinking his eyes open, he struggled to make sense of his surroundings.

Everything seemed a bit blurry, and he could feel the lingering effects of his transformation.

As his vision cleared, he became aware of a soft, comfortable sensation against his head.

He realized he was resting on something incredibly soft and warm.

Slowly, he lifted his head and looked around, trying to piece together what had happened.

"Ugh... where am I?" Satoru muttered to himself, rubbing his eyes.

He glanced up and saw Janne looking down at him with a mixture of concern and curiosity.

It dawned on him that his head had been resting on her lap, and he quickly sat up, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Janne... what happened?" he asked, his voice still groggy.

"You fainted," she replied gently, her eyes studying him carefully. "I'm not sure how, but your face started changing... it was like you were transforming right before my eyes."

Satoru's eyes widened in surprise. He touched his face, feeling the unfamiliar contours and angles. He couldn't quite grasp what she was saying, but he trusted her words.

"I... I don't remember much," he admitted. "Just a surge of energy and then... nothing."

Janne nodded, her expression softening. "You've been through a lot. Rest for a bit longer, okay? We'll figure this out together."

Satoru looked at her, feeling a wave of gratitude wash over him.

Despite the strangeness of the situation, he felt safe with her. He leaned back, letting out a deep breath, and tried to relax.

The softness of her lap had been a surprising comfort, and he found himself wishing he could stay like that a bit longer.

"Thank you, Janne," he said softly. "For everything."

Janne smiled, brushing a stray lock of hair from his forehead. "You don't need to thank me. We're in this together, remember?"

Satoru nodded, closing his eyes again.

The warmth of her presence and the softness of her lap lingered in his mind as he drifted back into a peaceful state, ready to face whatever came next with her by his side.

"So... what exactly is happening to my body?" Satoru asked, his voice filled with confusion.

"I feel completely different, much stronger, but my muscles are aching all over. I guess this is a small price to pay for this change?"

"Don't ask me," Janne replied, shaking her head. "I have no idea what's going on. You were supposed to have an affinity for water, yet you used black flames, and with an incredible power that shouldn't be possible for a first-time magic user."

"Maybe... this is fate? Perhaps it's a talent I was born with?"

"Hmm, that would be quite fortunate," Janne remarked, her tone tinged with curiosity and concern.

Satoru raised his hand slowly, ignoring the pain shooting through his muscles. He couldn't suppress his curiosity.

Closing his eyes, he visualized a new spell in his mind.

He focused on the intricate details, feeling the magic flow through him.

Suddenly, a small, fiery vortex appeared in the palm of his hand, spinning with an intensity that seemed almost alive.
