Bab 7: The Alien Monster and Vesia
Times have passed and nothing really happened. That said, I have no idea how many days have passed to be honest. I don't even know if they have the same calendar system that I used to know.
What was I doing all these time? Just some simple stuff like staying in my cage, and just getting out whenever that woman wants to have fun with me.
She's been doing some experiments on how to give me magic that doesn't need mana. Unfortunately, it wasn't as simple as we've first thought. Just remembering it gives me shivers.
***
"Hey! You! I have something for you to test!"
"Eh.. Being called 'you' all the time is weird"
"You're the one who said you didn't have a name right?"
"Well, yeaah, but it still doesn't make it feel right..."
"Is this a roundabout way of you asking me to give you a name?"
"I don't know what you're talking about~"
Well, yeah, I'm actually curious what she's gonna name me. I don't know much about the names on this world, and I want to experience something fantasy-like!
"Poop"
Uh.. what?
"Excuse me?"
"Poop."
"You.. want to poop?"
"From now on, your name shall be poop!"
"Ehh?! Woman, how dare--!!"
"What? Got something against me?"
Ugh... How dare she shatter my fantasy dreams...
"Nothing ma'am!"
"Good."
[Name is now set to 'Poop']
Eh?! Seriously? The system actually recognized it as valid? How the hell?
"Anyways, come on now! I can't wait to see the results!"
So as she said that, I've got no choice but to follow suit. At least she isn't using that body controlling magic anymore. It seems like as long as I follow her commands, I'll be safe. I'm a precious specimen after all! Ugh... that doesn't really make me feel better though. Screw that, Imma just stay at her good side for now since I've really got no choice for now but to do that.
"Now you! Stand right in this magic circle!"
"Even though you named me Poop, you still call me 'you' huh."
"I don't want to regularly say your disgusting, repulsive, horrid, sickening, horrible name."
"You chose it!"
"Death by drowning or burning?"
Woman, please don't say scary things while showing me a great smile. I don't really know what to feel about that.
Well, as I don't really want to push her buttons that much, I just quietly walked towards the center of the magic circle that was made by her. But to be honest though, it kinda feels fun to think that we could have small banters like this now. Who knows she might consider me her friend and let me go? Well, I'll just do it one moment at a time, as I do not want to unknowingly push her to her limits and kill me.
As I stood at the center of the magic circle, she started chanting as she raised one of her hands towards me. Even with this translator choker that I have, I still can't understand what she was saying. Arcane Tongue, was it? Apparently, there used to be a some kind of members of an organization called the "Arcanist" in the past, and they were the first ones to use magic. They didn't want other people outside their organization to learn magic, and thus they devised their own language called the Arcane Tongue. But the spreading of magic was beyond their control, and after ages of research, scholars were even able to decode it. Although I was told by Vesia that she only met a few who actually mastered it. Long story short, a group of old elitist wanted their own language but it still got leaked and even used to make magic easier. Personally, I think they were stupid.. in on way or another.
Well, my point is, using the Arcane Tongue is basically using Ancient Magic, so this must be pretty serious huh.
"Ah what was it again? Ah yes.. [Translatio]!"
Eh... was that normal to stumble during a chant? Hey! Don't make me nervous here!
And as the moment I've thought of that, I was suddenly enveloped by a bright light followed by a familiar sound that I haven't heard for a while.
*ting!*
What the hell was that? I even leveled up?
"Uh... Status"

Wow, so I leveled up once from that? Or maybe I was already on the verge on leveling up when that happened. Anyways, whatever she did, it did give me some exp for some reason. Imma just put these stat points to my INT. But, as I've expected, I got nothing from that. Well, the points that I've put isn't that much anyways.
"So? Did you get the skill?"
"Uh.. well, yes.. I did get a new skill, but.."
"But what?"
"I can't read it"
"Eh? It's just a modified fireball. Instead of using your own mana, I modified it as such you will absorb mana in the surroundings first before using your heart as a catalyst and direct that mana to the spell that you would want to chant"
"I barely got anything that you've said, but I'll just try and chant Fireball right?"
"Wow, you're so stupid"
So, I'll just imagine a fireball right? It would be awesome if I spit fireballs. As far as I have known, I just need to feel where I should direct my mana while imagining firing off the magic while I say it. So, something like this?
"[Fireball]!"
I said that while I open my mouth and tried to direct the mana outwards from my mouth. But unfortunately, what happened next was something we were not expecting.
The moment I've said that, I suddenly can't breathe. It's like my insides are all churned up and I just want to vomit. I want to vomit, but I can't. I feel my blood dripping from my mouth.
It's weird because even though I don't feel the pain, it still feels like I'm about to die.
Shit.. this is dangerous.. isn't it?
I used all the strength I could muster to stay standing, but I still inevitably fell to the floor. I just then tried to look at Vesia but what I saw was beyond my expectations.
She is just blankly staring at me while murmuring something that I can't hear.
Ah.. am I gonna die for real now?
Damn.
"[Novis]"
What?
For some reason, all of that bad feeling went away.
"Hey you, how long are you gonna stand there for? Experiment's over, go back to your cage now."
As I've opened my eyes, I'm standing again, and it felt like absolutely nothing happened. What did she just do?
"Your face looks stupid. I just used a spell that reverts your status back to how it was before we did the experiment. So stupid. Now go! Don't disturb me as I still have stuff to do. I'll just summon you when I'm done, or something."
Still dumbfounded, I just listened and went back to my cage.
Wait, did she just 'Save and Load' me?! Isn't that hella OP?!
***
Well, even if she can guarantee my safety, doesn't mean I would want to experience that again. It felt much worse when I was fighting that dwarf guy. It actually felt like death was poking my cheeks waiting for me to look at its way.
