Into the Unknown World

Chapter 6. Integrating magic

"...There are 7 Faes", showing her 7 slender fingers she counted the original faes.

"Rouge; The Dragon, Arancia; The Faun, Galben; The Beast, Zold; The Dwarf, Azul; The Undine, Cham; The Elf, and Violett; The Sylph. There are at least a hundred types of us Fairies including... --" As if recounting all the living beings I stopped her rambling.

"Hold on", I pulled my hand from the small pocket and slightly pointed my fingers to stop her, "first of all, you can read my mind?" puzzled, I began asking her while walking to the pillar where I sat earlier to get the meat jerky.

"It's not that I can go over your mind if you don't permit me. I can listen to your emotions loud and clear just as you can give attention to my words. It's called telepathy. We are connected because of the Queen's energy signature within you. Unlike any other human beings, you are one of the few who can hear us directly without me asserting anything. Also, I am bound to you since you gave birth to me. Hah Hah Hah!" She released a high-pitched and horribly childlike laughter.

"..Telepathy? Whoa, what's with giving birth to you? What I did was to leave you in that large gold goblet and then you came out!" I coughed and plainly told her the things I did to bring forth her existence. Seeing her playful and cheerful attitude, I realize how she's like me, making me understand the reason why there is existence like her.

"Alright, now I want to understand how you realize all of these things when you're just a newborn that has recently emerged from its egg?" mysteriously showing awareness to its being is unbelievable. You can't see newborn humans starting to address how he is being conceived and about weird things at that, like it's just normal. Not that this is within human reasoning, but at least show a sign of being a newborn!

"I understand how this is incomprehensible, but this is a privilege from the Queen's energy signature that's ingrained within your body as a source of your vigour and magic. Think of it as a seedling that thrives within you, giving you the power to conquer the impossible!" saying things with her arrogant high-pitched childish voice as if I am fated to some grand scheme...

Stroking while inclining my head. Ugh! It makes my head hurt.

"Your guess is also as good as mine, my Lord. However, knowledge is embedded in my soul the moment I have yielded consciousness. Furthermore, I am here to apply the necessary action to help oversee your growth and many things. Next, we'll begin the appraisal of your character class. Are you ready, my Lord?" I nodded not because I have an option in the first place. Watching her being comfortable with me indicates that she regards highly what is inside me.

Magic, huh. So, I endured that excruciating experience to acquire magic.

Before I know it, I narrate what transpired from the entrance of the cave until now. Hoping that this tiny fairy perceived my circumstances and did something about it.

"And, oh! Before I forgot. Please don't call me your Lord from now on. It's awfully embarrassing! You should know by now, I am but a commoner, I don't have a proper name. How about you? What should I call you?" I added.

"Oh. heh heh. I also don't have a name yet. I am a newborn, after all. I suppose you can agree on how I can be called later. Also, the system will request a proper name from both of us. I believe we need to think about a name suited to you. So, choose wisely, my Lord! Heh heh," she chuckled.

A freeman is worthy to get a name from the lord himself which will then be consecrated by the clergy on a ritual, albeit arbitrarily choosing a name has never reached my mind - a commoner. If I will need it myself, then I shall provide for my own.
