Novel Full Chapter 366 - Clishya's Past
-----
Acacia Town was a large town, the largest she had ever met, in fact, and it was filled with many people of varied races, there were even other frog-kin she sometimes met to talk about their village, every one originated from the same village as her.
She slowly adapted to her work environment and tried her best, she didn't plan to work on this forever, but until she gained enough money… After three years of living here, however, she slowly grew way too fond of all the people here.
Due to this, it was very hard for her to even fathom the concept of leaving now…
However, she still was saving money, as she had not even explored all the world she wanted to see.
She sometimes missed her family, her siblings in the orphanage, and wondered how they were.
Sometimes she felt lost, thinking why she had done this, why did she leave the shelter of her village to explore the wondrous yet dangerous world outside…
May times she cried herself to sleep as she hoped to one day go back to her swamp village… She really missed jumping and swimming in the swamp as well.
"Sigh… I am scared…"
She had gone scared of the outside world after all the hardships she went through, many times she had barely managed to escape from being kidnaped, robbed, or even worse things… there was no town safe… Although she was somewhat capable of using magic, so did the rest… and bandits could easily gang over someone to attack and rob them.
And because she spent so much in the Acacia Town, she grew fond of this place, and began to be afraid of walking outside, to going anywhere else…
However, when a mysterious boy appeared one day by bumping over her and making her fall over her butt, it was when things changed…
Slowly, everything around the town changed, this young man was growing stronger at a crazy pace, and he constantly brought large amounts of monsters as well, making things even crazier, and racking up a nice amount of money each time…
She had grown a bit envious of him at first, although she was also interested in him and his mysterious personality and past… and how was he growing so strong…
She tried to grow close to him, but he always seemed way too busy at times, and could only interact with him a little bit…
But now, after some time, and… after so many events and things, it had all come to this…
Her Mana Core resonated with divine power… she had become so strong not even she could still believe it.
"I want to go to the swamp…" she muttered while harboring her powers.
"Eh?"
Frank was suddenly left speechless… What was Clishya talking about now?
Go to the swamp? What?
"Erm… Clishya?" What are you talking about…?"
Clishya glanced at Frank with determination in her big eyes.
"I want to go back to my village… So… I have to end this already!"
FLASH!
By using her simple wish, which also brought her a lot of unexpected resolves, which left Frank rather shocked, Clishya braced herself!
Her Mana Core shined even brighter than previous times, the power given to her by it was outstanding, so outstanding that it was leaving her in shock!
Frank quickly realized that this was it! This was the last struggle!
He touched her shoulder as he gave Clishya the last little push.
"Do it!"
"Okay!"
FLAAASH!
Her Mana Core flashed with aquamarine colors of oceanic water, as the divine energies fused together into her body and soul, being infused into her mana core like a spiral of ethereal brilliance!
Her Mana Core began to glow with bright azure colors, and began to slowly meld into the soul, slowly turning itself into pure energy, pure mana!
Her Mana Core slowly fused completely with Clishya's soul, as she felt a strange feeling, something very strange…
There was something very strange happening, indeed!
This was… the stage of Mana Core and Soul Fusion! This was the Rank 8 Initial Stage!
"Uwaaahh?!"
Clishya was surprised by what was happening, she had only ever imagined this in her wildest of dreams, but not in here!
What was happening, however, was real! Her Mana Core and her soul were fusing, as it dissolved into a sea of divinity, both became one, yet her cultivation was somehow still there… she needed to develop her soul next!
"So much power…" muttered Clishya, feeling dizzy as her mana core completely fused with her soul, she fell over the ground, glancing at the ceiling.
"What did you mean by going to the village?" asked Frank curiously.
"Oh? Ah! D-Did I really just said that?!" asked Clishya nervously.
"Yes… Is it a place of your origins? Maybe where you came from? I am interested in hearing a bit of it, after all, I bet you'll want to bring me with you whenever you go…" sighed Frank.
Clishya smiled cutely at Frank's interest over her hometown, as she rested over the floor.
"Yes! I want to bring you there, Frank-kun! So you can meet my siblings from the orphanage and the auntie! Ah, I can't wait to get there… Uwah… I am overflowing with divine mana now… I feel a bit dizzy…" muttered Clishya, as her emerald eyes seemed fuzzy.
"Here, relax for now," said Frank, as he made Clishya sit down while he gave her a massage while using his Lifeblood Bestowal Skill, giving out small sparks of vitality and spreading them through tensed-up muscles, relaxing her.
"Phew… Y-You don't have to do this, you know? I feel like I am taking advantage of you…" sighed Clishya.
"What? Why would you be taking advantage of me? I am doing this all on my own accord. I like to massage my wives- Ah, I mean… My friends," said Frank. His little mistake only made Clishya grow redder, like a tomato…
"W-Wife?" she asked timidly.
"F-Forget what I said…" sighed Frank.
"Well, we have dated for a while now… It is quite obvious how… I feel about you…" said Clishya.
"But… How do you feel about me, Frank-kun?" asked Clishya, as she glanced at Frank's eyes, both of their faces were way too close to one another…
