You wake up, noticing he's up already. He's guzzling down food on the table like usual. You're not feeling cold anymore. "Mmmh.." you groan in a tired manner as you sit up. "Oh. You're up. Finally. How are you feeling?" You look around. "I'm feeling better, yeah." Your stomach rumbles. "Hungry?" he asks. You get up and sit on the table, starting to devour meat, cereal, sandwiches and coffee. He smirks. "It's good to see you got some appetite."

After eating, you yawn. "Ahhh, this feels great!" You were the one to empty the table. His arms wrap around you from the back and he kisses your cheek. "Glad you're doing fine." You smile and your fingers touch his cheek before he kisses your neck. "We still got the code key. I didn't want to touch it before you were up." You chuckle. "Let's see how it turns out!"

He turns your chair so that your side faces the table and then he takes his chair, sitting right in front of you. He takes the code key and holds it between you on his hand. "Just remember, if it accepts you, there's even more reason not to strain yourself. I think your body is a little too frail for the amount of power you already have." He looks worried but you smile at him. "I'll do whatever I can to keep you from dying again. I wouldn't want to grow you up again from scratch." He looks at you in a serious manner. "So are you suggesting you're willing to die for me?" You shake your head. "I know that when I do my all and pass out, you'll be there to catch me and watch me get better." He frowns. "No, if we're in the middle of a fight, I really might lose you. Are you willing to throw yourself away just for that sole purpose?"

You sigh and watch the glimmering code key in his hand. "I never had any thoughts for a purpose from the start." He looks at the code key. "Well, time to find out, huh?" You nod and gulp, reaching out towards the code key with your hand at the same time with him. The code key absorbs itself into you and you feel newfound power surging through you. He looks a little worried but covers it with looking away and leaning back. "Should've known it had a bad taste with vessels" he says and gets up from the chair, circling around you and hugging you from behind.

He places a kiss on your cheek. "Don't go using that power too much." You turn to look at him. "But if I was supposed to get all of this power, shouldn't there be a way for me to use it?" He gets off you. "You can use it but not too many times repeatedly. You'll get weak and useless in the battle so for now, concentrate using just one favor and one code key at a time if you have to use much power. Favors and sins compensate for each other so they shouldn't affect you in a bad way."

You glare at him. "I'm sure there's another way." He sits on the sofa, buries his face in his hands and groans. You sigh and giggle before holding out your hand. "Hey, give me one." He gives you the whole packet of cigarettes. You take one and light it up, then give him the lit cigarette. "There. It calms me down so why not you too?" He takes it quietly and you light another one for yourself. You both smoke in silence before you open up your mouth again. "I think I'll train with Renamon. She knows many things about this so-called spiritual power. At least she did as Kuzuhamon." He nods and inhales some smoke before answering. "Do as you like. But promise me you won't strain yourself." You stump the cigarette. "I won't."

You get up and walk off to the lowest floor of the building. You go to the servants' quarters. "Have you seen Renamon?" you ask the Bakemon. They point towards the kitchen politely. You walk there and see her cooking something. "Hey!" you say as you glomp her. She's surprised but smiles as she puts the pan on a cold stove. "Hi." You just smile at her widely. "Wh-what's with the look on your face? Are you up to something?" she asks. You giggle. "Just let's get to somewhere more quiet. I have an idea." She nods silently as you both walk out. The Bakemon continue the cooking from where Renamon left off.

You grab her hand enthusiastically. "Will you teach me how to train using my powers?" She looks at you. "Six immense powers inside you... How are you holding up like that?" You let go of her hand. "That's why I asked you. Do you know a way?" She ponders for a moment. "Let's go to the pond. I came upon it as I walked here from the Village of Beginnings. It's not far but you prefer flying if I'm not wrong." She forms wings. "You're still able to do that?" you ask her. She nods and you follow the example, forming your blue wings and take off with her.

You land on a small opening under the shadow of huge trees. There's a pond in the middle and even if it resembles the oasis amidst small woods, this one's deeper into the woods and more covered. "I'll help you with removing your clothes if it's okay. I'll examine the head sources of your power and we'll get you to the point when you can use all of them simultaneously." You blush. "O-okay, but I can remove my clothes myself.." She smiles. "Have I not helped you with this earlier?" You sigh and smile back at her. "If you insist, Renamon."

You remove your clothes with her assistance and there you stand before her, naked and a little anxious. "Oh? What's this little string I see between your legs?" she asks. You look away and shuffle your legs a little. "I... I'm on my period... A monthly human girl thing..." She nods. "Okay. I won't ask any more if you're uncomfortable with it." You nod back at her.
