Chapter 51

Though I say let's bring her back, how exactly do I do that? I have no idea. In the first place, how do I resurrect the dead? Moreover an animal.

(Don't worry. I will do the heavy lifting. You just give me the <Spirit >. Think of it as a proxy. Until you can do it on your own.)

Thanks for that. It helps a lot. But since I have seen her in the flesh, I should calm down and amass power. I need to become strong. At least strong enough to get your recognition.

(You have a long way to go. Live for another millennia or so and I will consider.)

Living for a millennia…..that's a bit too far stretched, isn't it? A normal human can only live about a century and that's already pushing it.

(You are using <Spirit > to strengthen your body. So your cells are fortified and they won't die at the previous rate. And your growth is still ongoing. You can at least live for 3 to 4 millennia easily.)

Thank you for the kind information. But let's get to work. It's getting late. I look at Hazel.

"Hazel, I will first bring Eden's mother back."

"Bring her back? But isn't she a bear?" (Hazel)

"You were also a dog. She will evolve just like you. But what she will do is up to her."

And I just pour my <Spirit >. I don't even know where should I put it but it was gone. So System was already at work.

And a circle with intricate geometric patterns appeared. Is it that? The so called magic circle….and it started glowing. A reddish hue was exuded by that circle and I took a few steps back.

I even prepared a sheet of cloth just in case.

"Here she comes, Eden."

"Yaaaayyy…" Eden jumps happily and stands in front of the circle.

But I take her and take a step back. Hazel is staring at the circle like a hawk. Fay is sitting on the sofa and watching. She is relaxed because it really doesn't concern her.

(I have sent her and I have filled her in. She won't be totally clueless now.)

Thanks. I appreciate it. And the circle glowed even brighter. Soon a white light engulfed the room and I had to close my eyes.

Why is there a flash of light anyway? Why does summoning cause a flash of light? Can't they be summoned without these?

I was complaining about the summoning process but soon the light faded and there stood a woman. In the center of the circle, there is a woman.

Before I didn't introduce Eden. I mean appearance wise but this time, it's her mother. So I guess I should describe her mother.

Tall. She is tall for a woman. Almost the same height as me. A nice face and a fantastic body shape. You can think that she does some sort of sport or something similar. Her body is completely in shape.

Black hair. Long black hair and eyes as brown as finely roasted coffee beans. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Her skin is white which I thought would be tan. She is wearing a white dress.

She looks at me and comes to me. Eden is with me.

I let go of Eden.

"Honey, go to Hazel for now."

She nodded and went to Hazel. The reason? Because I will be attacked now.

And she didn't hold back. A nice slap to start. It was burning. My cheek was burning and it went numb soon. Then came a flurry of punches.

All precise….their precision was top notch.

"Bfffuuuuhhhh..."

I let out that weird template sound. And then a high kick. My head was cleanly kicked. I heard a cracking noise. Maybe my spine was cracked.

I was sent flying to the wall. I crash into the wall and fall down.

But I get up. It seriously hurts and I am bleeding. But I can't stay down.

She comes to me and gives me another punch to the gut. It directly hit my core. I fall down again but she picked me up.

She slid her hands and grabbed me from the front. And she bends behind and throws me backwards.

I crash into the other wall now. An overhead suplex. It sure hurts.

And this time, I couldn't stand. I just get on my knees, barely.

But she doesn't come near me at all. She is standing there, staring at me.

I cough up blood and wipe my face. My face is a bloody mess after all.

"Pretty gutsy don't you think?"

She speaks for the first time.

"You…..sure?"

I can't speak very well but try to anyway.

"Yeah. But what do you eat? Every time I punched you, I felt like hitting an iron wall."

"And here is the iron wall. Completely shattered."

I weakly laugh.

"Are you satisfied?"

I ask.

"Yeah. I had a good rag doll."

"Glad to be of service."

I had that coming anyway. I killed her on a whim. So I deserve at least this much. I prepared myself for the worst but it seems that won't be necessary.

I stand up and start healing my wounds. Though it will take some time to heal completely. That's why I created bandages and wrapped myself in them.

<Spirit > sure is handy. I created bandages out of thin air.

Why Hazel and Fay didn't interfere? I asked them not to.

But when everything was done, Hazel came running to me.

"Master, are you okay? She hurt you really badly. Should we go to a hospital? But who will treat you?"

"Calm down. I am fine. Look…my wounds are already healing."

I showed her my already closed cuts. But she is still anxious. Fay is trying to stay calm. Adaptability is good. She is trying hard to adapt to her situation.

Eden is now talking to her mother. But why is she seated like that?

Is Eden scolding her mother? It would be interesting. Next up is my parents. Today sure is interesting and painful in a lot of ways.
