73 Talking With my Girlfriend’s Bunny

I tried to think about who else did I save. I thought about Rose honesty, Hayley's and G's flawed powers, could any of that be the result of them coming back from the dead? I know Hayley wasn't there when it happened, but with the system, I brought a cat and at least one more people back to life, and she was between the people considered as my party already, so I don't find it weird at all…

Even if I'm rambling, I can help it, this was something that I couldn't even imagine. There was no point in thinking about it unless the system himself tells me, or Dante remembers anything else, I'm in a dead end.

I looked at Dante… have you tried to read the facial expression of a cat?

Yeah me neither, but after he told me the story he fell silent. At this moment I wish I could read his mind, to know what he is thinking, I stroked his ears, and he purred softly.

I wish I knew before all this. I thought that the burdens on my mind were a lot, but in reality, it was nothing compared to Dante, he had been taking care of us before we even know what was happening.

"Why you didn't tell me?"

'I… was scared, I didn't know what you lost because of this~, and even if the System said that it was your choice to pay the price and start the pet contract to save me, I didn't know how you were going to react this~, I didn't know if everything that the system told was true~. Also, you were always busy~, and at the beginning, I used most of my time to learn and control my powers~, so I didn't have the chance~.'

I just nodded at him

"Don't worry about it, but no more secret ok? And if you remember anything else just tell me."

'You are not mad~?'

"Why I would be mad? The system didn't lie, whatever it was, I did it willingly even if I don't remember."

Dante purr became louder, and I just pat his head, you can't read a cat face, but his purr showed me that a huge burden had been lifted from his little heart.

"We have a lot to do so we can talk later ok."

'Ok~.'

"Do you know how to achieve Soul Resonance?"

'I'm not sure~, I remember too little about it, synchronization and harmony, I remember that also it's not something you can force, it has to come naturally~.'

Mmmm I have more time to accomplish this with Dante but how can I help Rose and Lucy to achieve it?

'System? What are the conditions to achieve soul resonance?'

[… You are not going to ask about the other stuff?].

'If you want to tell me, I would be happy, but I'm sure that if you wanted me to know Dante would have known and told me already. I suppose that you don't want me to know yet, so it's lost time, I have another thing to do now and not too much time.'

[…]

[Soul Resonance as Dante said is a state that can't be forced, your soul and the one you are synchronizing with must have no conflicts and work together towards a common objective. That is the simplest way. There are others for it to work and make something more permanent but for a temporary Resonance that should be enough.]

So, I have to make Lucy and Rose work together towards a common objective? I couldn't help but look at the useless bunny that's on top of Dante. How can I even make them work together if I'm not sure what is she capable of?

I tried to think what I have her seen doing, playing with Rose, eating, sleeping… aaand that's all I got.

"What can you do?" I tried to pat her a little, but I couldn't interact with her. She opened her eyes and looked back at me, she moved her nose and went out.

'What is she doing?'

She went through the wall

'She wants you to follow her~.'

I didn't know what to expect, but I went out and found her next to a flower. I saw her eating eat, and the flower withered as if the time advanced really fast.

As I thought… she can eat

The next second, she became surrounded by a white aura and the flower came back to normal.

What is this? I have no idea what I just saw.

"Can you help me with my arm?"

She tilted her head without understanding, I showed her the wound on my arm she just looked at it but did nothing.

I sighed, mmm she can restore souls? Heal? Control time? I'm not sure about what I saw.

I plucked a leaf and feed it to her, the material part withered as usual. I pointed it and the plant to see if she could do something about it

…

…

She stayed still and did nothing.

Why can't Astral pets have Dante's intelligence?

"Remember Chains? Can you eat them?" I started to move my hands trying to make her understand that I'm bound.

…

This is ridiculous

I went back inside to see if I find a chain to see if she understands.

She started to follow me as she did with Rose at the beginning, I found funny seeing a little bunny jumping behind me.

I found it and show it to her, and then bite it…

'Do you want me to talk to her?'

… he waited until I started to bite a metal chain?

'You didn't ask for help, but when you tried to bite a chain I thought that you may need help~…'

"Please talk to her."

I have no idea what Dante did after that. Lucy went back to his back and cuddled there.

After a couple of minutes, he told me.

'Her power can take care of the chains~, but she is too young, so she doesn't have enough strength~."

At that moment an idea appeared in my mind.

"Dante, do you think that if she works together with Rose the resonance will be enough to take off the chains?"

The plan was already in my head, and I'm sure that is going to work…

'Please don't~, Rose is going to get mad at you~, we have more time to try another thing after this there are a couple of days for that~ You have no idea if it's going to work~!'

All his point made sense but…

"I have no idea why… but I think is going to work… are you with me?"

Dante looked at me.

'I don't like this plan~.'

"I know…"

'Rose will hate you for this~.'

…

I hope she doesn't

…Hero

I can't believe that killing this idiot took you that long.

Kill a villain.

I have been sharing everything in my mind with her since the first mission ended.

I wanted to talk with Rose and explain her everything, but I heard Butler at my back about to attack me.

I moved to the side, he couldn't keep the balance and fell. He started to contort in pain in the floor. I aimed at him with the handgun and shoot him twice in the head.

I thought about taking care of all the potential threats, but I wanted to leave this place.

Rose was looking at me with an angry face, from the thoughts I share with her she understood, that the reason I let Jamie catch me was to complete this mission and help her achieve Resonance with her pet.

'I'm going to talk with you when we are back.'

I felt a shiver going through my back. I think that I prefer Jamie's chains and torture to what is within for me at home… well, I deserve this.

Without waiting, we left the mansion.

Dante explained to us that most people were in pain, but at different levels. There is one that died, he was one the ones that got lost, and it was in almost the same state that the fat guy.

I wasn't sure about what to do right now, I was tired like Dante and Rose, but Rose said that she is not going to go back to her body until I got there…

We moved to the house that I was going to use as a hideout at the beginning. We stopped there mainly for Dante to rest he didn't say anything, but I noticed that he was acting a little weird, so I told him to relax and stop using his powers.

'There are too many beasts around, and they will start to kill the survivors if I stop…'
