Why Did You Summon Me?

Imagine being forced to live, after death, as incorporeal bodies trapped in a vast space of nothingness for thousands of years, with nothing to do but exchanging past memories with other cohabitants (read: weirdos). Everybody wanted out, but there was no way to leave the Void... Until one day, a young man was finally summoned, as a powerful but reluctant mentor, by a bubbly and motivated but completely naive young girl. Baiyi, finally out of the Void, was the only one who could save all of the other 32 souls from their prison and his summoner might just be The Key to their freedom. However, Baiyi had to use the techniques and abilities the other souls had taught him throughout the years, and together with his own extensive knowledge of anime and game tropes from his shady and dangerous past as an otaku, to face the biggest challenge of them all: training the clumsy young girl he was forced to partner up with… into a competent sorcerer!

While Baiyi and Captain Aegis conversed, Mia and Lulu were having a less awkward discussion in Lulu's room. Lulu's parents were still at the barracks treating the injured, so the girls were able to enjoy some privacy. 

Lulu gave Mia a complicated look. Her eyes contained traces of shock, wonder, jealousy, and a sliver of resentment. Mia understood the sentiment behind that gaze, so she knew that she had to pin the blame on someone else. 

"Okay; that was totally my Dad's idea. He forbade from telling anyone that I am a sorcerer," Mia said. 

"So... a little village girl was able to befriend Little Miss Sorcerer, huh?" Lulu mumbled, looking a bit self-conscious. 

Mia quickly hugged Lulu. "You'll always be my friend; no matter what," She whispered in Lulu's ears. "I'm afraid I can't stay here any longer. But, if you still cherish me as a friend, then, please…accept this."
