I like it when we are together

The boy Zi'o drew his sword, removing it from its sheath. Then, filled with nervousness, he began to think about how he would feel that same energy again. His thoughts initially wandered, leaving most of the soldiers there anxious. The captain imagined that the true perpetrator had been Goddess, since Zi'o had been seen with a mysterious woman at the beginning of everything.

In Runegard, unregistered women when reincarnated, or not, could be witches. In Runegard within the reigns, there was a long history of deaths because of witches. The knights then decided to test him, with the intention of having the supposed witch help him.

Morrigan then, in front of that rock, with his arms attached to the blade's hilt, took a deep breath. His mind then began to darken. Even with all the nervousness, he knew it was possible. His inner thoughts about how important that could be began to make his heart beat faster. A first touch made him feel his body warming up, and a second heartbeat was heard alongside his own. That sound was the Aura...

With a single cutting motion, swinging his arm from side to side and suddenly opening his eyes, a white energy appeared, splitting the rock into two pieces, with the top part of the rock slowly sliding to the ground after a few seconds. "Can he really control the Aura?" in doubt, one of the soldiers spoke impressed. The captain smiled anxiously. "There it is!" he looked back with his eyes dimming the Aura's brightness.

Goddess looked at the boy smiling, putting her hands on her face, laughing at the situation. The truth was that she was impressed with how the boy could make things easy. "Certainly, a good use of Aura, without delay in channeling, which means that the heart of the Aura is fully functional," said Captain Senmaru as he approached him, handing him a stamp on a piece of paper.

"You really are what they say. You will be able to work for the Leomurd. Fortunately, I won't be your trainer. You'll be in the hands of one of the big guys of this generation, but we'll always see each other, Mr. Zi'o," the captain affirmed as he dismissed the others with a snap of his fingers, signaling for the soldiers' movement to resume.

"Thank you, Senmaru-Sensei, I will train hard!" he said, taking the stamp paper. It was even small, a vertical rectangle with a stamp and the lion's head seal on it. Morrigan then said goodbye to Captain Senmaru, leaving him curious. Senmaru was a captain of long standing, and seeing someone with this level of potential meant many things in Runegard. 6% of an existence in Runegard is something that always happens when a big event is about to happen, related to that person. In Morrigan's mind, the boy could be the next unlucky one to have a difficult fate.

Goddess immediately jumped on the boy, pushing him forward cheerfully, saying, "Look, you got it on the first try! I didn't know you could control that power so well. How did you master it so quickly?" Morrigan responded somewhat timidly as they began to walk side by side, "I feel that if I'm determined to do something, I'm capable of using it freely," he replied, leaving the girl confused. "It seems very difficult. I won't try to learn; I prefer magic," she said smiling, as they walked back to the previous address, where they would talk to the same elf as before, Venturos.

Their arrival at the place made most of those present look again. Zi'o then raised the stamp, making Venturos sweat a lot. He quickly grabbed a book again from under where he attended to the others. "Mr. Zi'o, where would you like to live? We have an excellent room. As a representative of the Leomurd family, you can choose between three things. The first one is an excellent house with everything paid for, but your salary will be a little lower. You have several privileges with this place. The second thing is a median place, in the city center, and you have more money, but some bills will be your responsibility. And the last option is where you should choose where to live. A series of good addresses will be shown to you, and you will have to pay your bills alone, but you will have good money to do so."

After all the options, Zi'o then chose the first one without thinking twice, making Goddess widen her eyes, saying, "Why aren't you going to live like a king?" she exclaimed, with him saying, "Actually, I prefer it this way. I like to understand what I'm getting into. I thought I would already have a house here, but if I'm going to have one, I prefer to find it myself." She then crossed her arms, impressed, and soon all the paperwork was signed, with him receiving some addresses, and the two leaving the room. It was already getting dark; their day had been full...

"So, what are you going to do now that you're officially a Knight of an important family?" she asked, yawning slowly with her arms stretched upwards as the yawn happened. Morrigan calmly responded, "We'll sleep somewhere. I received an advance to find a place, so I have money!" he said, showing a bundle of money, making her blush. "Now, am I going to sleep with you every day? Isn't that kind of weird?" Without all her cocky posture, he then replied to her a little embarrassed but still serious, "Do you want a separate room? I thought it would be okay since we slept together on the farm..." She then punched his shoulder to get his attention, "It wasn't quite like that; I ended up dozing off..." She tried to exit the scene, but then crossed her arms.

"There's nothing of yours that I haven't seen already... so let's sleep in the same room, but I want dinner tonight!" she insisted, turning her face to the side, while he sighed, "Okay!" he confirmed, and then quickly asked, "You're not going to leave, are you?" His question made her a little anxious, but she replied quickly, as if she had already thought about this possibility, "I have nowhere to go. I can think of something. You can visit me wherever I am if necessary..." She replied as if she were the owner of her current situation, and theoretically, Goddess had over 1000 years of life.

"I like it when we're together; I wish it would stay like this... For a while longer!" he replied, scratching his head with his index finger, looking at some house, trying to disguise his embarrassment. She noticed, and then said smiling, "I'll stay! You're not the worst!" she said, grabbing his right arm, starting the walk. They would be together for a while longer...
