Chapitre 67: Hidden Potential
「 Babah (curious) 」
"Kejora..."
"Can I have a word with you?"
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"I sense intrigues within you."
"What is it, young Soul Traveler?"
「 Babah 」
"Are there any other Soul Travelers?"
"I mean, I am not the only one, right?"
Kejora Bersatu, the ancient and wise Eidolon, regarded Babah with a deep, knowing gaze. Their bond was stronger, growing every day through the connection with Princess Connie.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"No, Babah, you are not the only Soul Traveler."
"There are others like you, individuals who possess the ability to traverse the realms and tap into their hidden potential."
Babah's eyes widened with curiosity and excitement, eager to learn more about these fellow Soul Travelers and the possibilities that lay before them.
「 Babah 」
"Who are they?"
"Where can I find them?"
Kejora Bersatu's voice resonated with wisdom as he answered, his words carrying the weight of millennia.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"The path of the Soul Traveler is a solitary one, Babah."
"Each individual must discover their own destiny and unravel the mysteries that lie within."
He paused, his gaze penetrating Babah's very core.
"However, there are places where the paths of Soul Travelers may intersect."
"Keep your senses keen and your heart open, for you may encounter them in the most unexpected of places."
Babah nodded, absorbing the wisdom imparted by Kejora Bersatu. The journey ahead seemed both daunting and exhilarating, but the knowledge that there were others like him, on a similar path of self-discovery, rekindled his sense of purpose.
「 Babah 」
"Thank you, Kejora."
"I will remain vigilant and embrace the opportunities that come my way."
"Embrace this second chance."
Kejora Bersatu nodded approvingly, his ethereal form emanating a sense of reassurance.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"Remember, Babah, your potential is vast and boundless."
"Embrace your inner strength, and the realms will unfold before you."
「 Babah 」
"Oh, and one more thing..."
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"Yes, Babah?"
「 Babah 」
"By any chance you know of a spirit with the name Hybris?"
Kejora Bersatu's eyes widen, astounded by Babah's spontaneous question. He paused for a moment before finally deciding to share his knowledge.
「 Kejora Bersatu (calm) 」
"I see..."
"You have already met my sister, Hybris."
Babah was flabbergasted by Kejora Bersatu's revelation. The idea of Lady Hybris and Kejora Bersatu being related filled him with awe and curiosity.
「 Babah 」
"Lady Hybris is your sister?"
"But... she seemed so different from you."
Kejora Bersatu nodded, understanding the confusion in Babah's voice.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"Yes, she is my sister, born from the same ethereal essence."
"But while we share a common origin, our paths diverged long ago."
"Hybris embodies the essence of ambition and the pursuit of power, while I embody the balance and harmony of the realms."
"The pride of being the first daughter of Aoda strayed her into a dark and evil path."
Babah pondered Kejora Bersatu's words, realizing the significance of his encounter with Lady Hybris during his time within Zanno's vessel. The encounter had left a lasting impression on him, stirring a sense of unease and fascination.
「 Babah 」
"What does it mean, meeting Lady Hybris?"
"Is there a reason our paths crossed?"
Kejora Bersatu's eyes gleamed with ancient knowledge, his voice hinting caution.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"The meeting with Hybris was no mere coincidence, Babah."
"There are forces at play in the realms, and your encounter with her may hold greater significance than you can fathom."
Babah's mind raced with questions, his heart pounding with anticipation. The revelation of other Soul Travelers and the connection between Kejora Bersatu and Hybris opened up a world of possibilities, mysteries, and dangers.
"Now I finally understand why I could not sense your presence within Connie, earlier."
「 Babah 」
"Why was it, Kejora?"
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"Looks like my sister's 'stain' had blurred your presence."
"You must have already activated your previous vessel's True Form armor."
「 Babah (alarmed) 」
"The Phoenix Armor?"
"I did."
"Kejora..."
"What should I do?"
Kejora Bersatu's ethereal form seemed to glow with guidance.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"Remain steadfast in your purpose, Babah."
"Trust your instincts and embrace the knowledge that comes your way."
"But be cautious, for the path of a Soul Traveler is rife with challenges and temptations."
Babah nodded, a newfound determination burning within him. He understood that his journey as a Soul Traveler was again twisted by the hands of fate.
「 Babah 」
"Thank you, Kejora."
"I will honor the path I walk and heed your guidance."
Kejora Bersatu offered a serene smile, his presence radiating warmth and support.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"May Aena guide you, Babah."
「 Princess Connie (interrupting) 」
"Does that mean..."
"I have a True Form armor also?"
Kejora Bersatu turned to Princess Connie, his eyes gentle yet filled with ancient wisdom.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"The awakening of such power requires time, training, and a deep understanding of oneself and the magical and spiritual energy that flows within Aena."
"A True Form only transpires when Eidolons and their summoner are synchronized and achieve the precise balance of magical and spiritual energy needed to activate the power of the æsthers within an armor."
Princess Connie's eyes widened with a mixture of excitement and curiosity.
「 Princess Connie 」
"I would be honored to unlock my True Form armor, Kejora."
"I want to grow stronger and help Zanno!"
"He saved my life before."
"I will definitely return the favor!"
Kejora Bersatu nodded, acknowledging Princess Connie's determination and desire.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"Your spirit and dedication are commendable, Princess Connie."
"Trust in the journey and embrace the challenges that lie ahead."
"In due time, your True Form armor will reveal itself to you."
Princess Connie's resolve strengthened, her gaze filled with determination.
「 Princess Connie 」
"Thank you, Kejora."
"I will continue to train and learn, ready for the day my True Form armor awakens."
The princess, who was initially filled with excitement, was taken aback upon observing Kejora Bersatu. The ancient spirit seemed to be lost in his thoughts.
「 Babah 」
"What is it, Kejora?"
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"This little chat of ours managed to spark my curiosity..."
「 Princess Connie 」
"What are you curious about?"
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"This vessel..."
"This Zanno the two of you were talking about."
「 Babah 」
"What about him, Kejora?"
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"To be able to trigger Hybris's True Form at such a young age..."
"He must be truly gifted."
Kejora Bersatu paused for a moment, before continuing.
"Or have fallen into a pit of despair so deep that his soul lost control of his own vessel."
「 Babah 」
"What do you mean by lost control, Kejora?"
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"It is believed that when an Aenan soul loses control, the world itself will take over the vessel..."
"Until the soul recovers."
「 Babah 」
"The world?"
"You mean Aena?"
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"Yes..."
"Aena."
"According to the Book of Origins, Aena loved her children so much that her essence remained after the world was created..."
"Watching over them since the Time of Creation."
Babah and Princess Connie were all ears as they listened intently to Kejora Bersatu's words, the weight of the ancient knowledge settling upon them.
「 Babah 」
"So, you're saying that when a soul loses control, Aena herself takes over the vessel to protect it?"
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"Yes, that is one interpretation."
"Aena's love and protection extend beyond the realms, and when a soul is in great peril, she intervenes to safeguard it."
Princess Connie's eyes widened in realization.
「 Princess Connie 」
"Could it be that Zanno's encounter with Lady Hybris triggered such a state?"
"Did Aena step in to protect him?"
Kejora Bersatu nodded, his voice filled with both caution and wonder.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"It is a possibility, Princess Connie."
"The circumstances surrounding Zanno and his connection to my sister are unlike anything I have experienced before."
"His ability to withstand Hybris's influence and the manifestation of her True Form at such a young age is remarkable."
Babah's mind raced with thoughts and questions, his curiosity growing with each passing moment.
「 Babah 」
"Kejora, what does this mean for Zanno?"
"Is he in danger?"
Kejora Bersatu's gaze turned solemn as he spoke.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"The path that Zanno treads is fraught with peril and uncertainty."
"His connection to Lady Hybris is both a source of strength and a potential vulnerability."
"You must remain vigilant if you want to help him."
"Offer your support as he navigates this treacherous journey."
Princess Connie clenched her fists, determination burning in her eyes.
「 Princess Connie 」
"Zanno has saved my life."
"I won't let him face this alone."
"We will stand by his side, no matter what challenges lie ahead."
Babah nodded in agreement, his resolve matching Princess Connie's.
「 Babah 」
"You're right, Connie."
"We will support Zanno and help him when the time comes."
"Together, we will help him go through this."
Kejora Bersatu smiled, his presence radiating reassurance.
「 Kejora Bersatu 」
"Your loyalty and dedication are admirable, young ones."
"May the bond you share guide you through the trials ahead."
"Remember, the power of unity can overcome even the greatest of obstacles."
As they continued their conversations with Kejora Bersatu, the trio delved deeper into the secrets of the realms, the nature of their powers, and the legends that shaped their destinies. Each revelation fueled their curiosity and strengthened their resolve, for they knew that their actions would have far-reaching consequences not only for themselves but for the balance of the entire realm.
