8 The journey begins

A bright symbol appears on my forehead, I can't see it but I can feel the heat on my head and the waves of electricity running from my finger tips and legs surging towards that particular place on my forehead.

The symbol fades away in a manner that seems as if it is being absorbed into my body.

The fog slowly clears off from my eyes.

I feel like a different person

my hearing, my thinking, my sense of smell, everything about me had somehow been upgraded

I feel like I'm no longer human

"Were you always in my body?" I asked curiously

'I still can't believe it ,am I destined for this?, but then were my friends supposed to die like that?' I ask myself

' Iet me warn you birdie, before we begin the journey on the path you have chosen just know that what you've seen today is nothing compared to what you'll face in the future as there are many of these demon children scattered all over the world, they mix with the human population and they vary in strength' 'these ones are only M-rank demons and of course they are nothing I can't handle but now that we've merged I can't take over your body anymore and that's why I have to teach you how to use your power to become stronger'

'But never get too proud of your progress coz you'll always meet one stronger than the last but you have an advantage over them as you can detect them but they can't tell apart any other spirit being from humans even their own kind' the voice says seriously

" wait, so you are saying that I'm a spirit being?" I say with amazement

'you find that out yourself' was all the voice told me totally killing the excitement

' hey i will always be in your body and your mind since we are one person so you should try talking to me with your mind before you end In up in a mental asylum' the voice reminded

'so what would I call you then?'

I tried to say with my mind this time

"good, you can call me Lori"

I smiled to myself knowing what the voice was implying.

Now that I had known my purpose, I certainly couldn't flunk. I was doing this not only for my friends but for every soul that had been lost to the these horrible creatures, after all isn't that the purpose of all of this in the first place?
