"I- am- Wiliam, are you?" Wiliam tapped his chest as he spoke and then pointed at the ice witch, they were both playing this game of trying to talk to each other for a few minutes and at least there was some progress.
"Despina!" The ice witch was finally able to speak her name and Wiliam let out a sigh of joy if she learned at that speed they could have a simple conversation in a while "Wait, Despina where have I heard that name before?"
(Despina is the name of a Greek Goddess daughter of Demeter and Poseidon however her mother did not care for her and her father even hated her, Demeter even forbade her real name from being pronounced which ended up all calling her Despina which means Lady.)
(To find out more, search!)
Wiliam felt that the name was familiar, more specifically he remembers seeing the name while studying Greek mythology in his past life but he couldn't remember.
So Wiliam continued to teach words to Despina that he was learning surprisingly fast, he continued to teach until she spoke.
"Where am I?" That was the first question she asked, she probably doesn't remember much "You are, how can I say, inside me!"
"Inside you?" She asked again and Wiliam nodded, there was no way to know if her expression had changed because she had no face but he felt she was getting angry.
"Why am I inside you?" Her voice sounded louder this time, Wiliam didn't care and answered honestly "I made a deal with Mephisto for you, I wish I had your power!"
No more words were needed, Despina began to float in the air and strong winds bringing snow started to circulate around her she clearly would not cooperate with Wiliam.
But the last one didn't even care and hit his fist on the palm of his hand "I remember, you are the most lonely Goddess in the world!" Wiliam's speech seemed to irritate Despina even more.
(Ice avalanche noises)
BANG !!!
A huge avalanche covered the place where Wiliam was, but after a few minutes a part of the snow opened up and Wiliam came out of the hole, snapping his neck.
"You know, I wish we could solve this with dialogue, but that's the case!" This time, Wiliam started flying.
Few people know, but the mind of a modern-age person is much stronger than in the past, as long as they can control the mind what you can do depends solely on your imagination.
And for someone who has watched countless animes and movies Wiliam is practically invincible in his own head, Despina may even have the experience of a Goddess and a lot more, but she never surpassed the imagination of an otaku!
"ARRRR!" Despina screamed loudly and the storm became even more violent chunks of ice began to form in the air and advance towards Wiliam.
"Well, let's get started!" Wiliam reached out and a blue ball formed and began to suck the ice and snow around him.
(Noises of strong winds and breaking ice).
"What's that?" Despina was also curious to see her attack being easily neutralized and attacked again.
A large ball of ice that covered the entire space formed above Wiliam and began to fall.
Wiliam threw the blue ball on the ice block.
Cccccc!
A strange phenomenon happened, a more expressive layer of ice covered the ice of the ball and made it appear to fall and before Despina could get out of her chock the ice ball exploded in millions of blades.
Crack! BOOM!
"Nani ?!" Those were Despina's last words before being swallowed by a sea of blades.
-------------------------------------------------- ----
Some hours later.
"Let me go!" Despina shouted, she was trapped on an ice cross while Wiliam had tea and read a book.
"Only when you surrender and give me access to your powers!" Wiliam took another sip of tea and turned the page of the book, in that position he seemed to be more evil than Despina.
"I won't be used by anyone !!!" Destina let out a cry that made the ice shiver, Wiliam this time stopped drinking tea and got up.
"You know this pride of God will end up killing you, oh sorry you're already dead, aren't you!" Wiliam joked as he walked over to her and stood in front of her.
"However, there is one thing that I am curious about, how did you end up in the Devil's hand?" Despina just stared at Wiliam for a while and seeing that she couldn't break free she decided to tell the story.
"I was just born when my mother Demeter left me!" She was about to start a long life story, Wiliam did not interrupt her and listened patiently to her life story.
About 5 hours later her life story finally ended with her in that state, Wiliam wiped away an invisible tear and was trying to contain the laughter in her story.
"Let me see if I understand, nobody ever liked you and all you did in life was to freeze things and be cursed for it and after you lost your divinity you tried to possess the body of an ice witch but the last one didn't allowed and in the end thanks to the fight between two entities in a body the body died and their souls merged and you fell into hell where Mephisto found you and refined your soul in a hellish spirit? "Despina nodded in understanding, Wiliam all of you to hold back the tears.
Her life story was literally nothing good, she may not have suffered her whole life, but loneliness was the thing that plagued her the most.
"Being sincere instead of the spirit of agony and suffering you should be the spirit of loneliness and failure hahaha!" Despina didn't laugh at Wiliam's joke and tried to break free again just to fail.
"But being honest with you, look at your life now it will change you will have me!" Wiliam opened his arms as he spoke, Despina also stopped trying to break free and tilted her head to the side.
"Look from today on, you will always be in my head, you are like a spiritual symbiote, do you understand?" Although Despina did not understand the reference, she understood the meaning.
"Are you going to keep me company?" Her voice sounded again and there was even a hint of hope.
Wiliam was also surprised and just nodded "This poor Goddess is probably the most lonely person I know, she is so lonely that she sees a person like me who is taking advantage of her as a companion!" He thought internally.
"Yes I will keep you company but you need to give me your powers!" He then released Despina as a form of trust, the latter fell to the ground and just looked at Wiliam for a while.
At the end after 5 minutes she straightened her back and held out her hand to Wiliam "I hope you keep your word!" Wiliam smiled and also grabbed her hand.
A great explosion of light followed and in the next moment Wiliam was back in the alley but this time the day was clear.
"Aff, what time is it? And why am I stinking of dog piss? "Wiliam got up and came to her body but he noticed something strange" Why am I taller and my hands are so big? "
He wasted no time and made an ice wall on his side, however unlike the other times he formed ice this time the process was smoother and it looked like the cold could merge with the matter however he didn't have time to think in that.
"Why am I an adult now !!!?" He shouted loudly as he looked at him in the mirror and his mind trying to understand what happened.
