"Spirit, I saw how you were treated just now. I promise you, if you bond with me, I will always never let you feel sad, and you will forever only feel happiness around me," Tessa said.

She had to improvise a little, but the words came from her heart after seeing its expression just now after its bond was erased.

The spirit was conflicted, and the bell sounds made sure to let everyone know just that.

Tessa looked saddened as well. What was this, the third time she was trying? Both times before she had tried to copy the other people's words and as such had failed. 

However, now that she was using her own words, from her own heart, if even this failed, then she wouldn't know what to do.

'Maybe I'm just not meant to have a spirit,' she began thinking.

Tap.

The spirit touched her hand and let out a small jingling noise.

Ning returned just in time for everyone to see the summoning circle form beneath the spirit's feet.
