Seeing the notifications Levi uood what happened and was gd that he had that sort of prote just in case, he of course didn't select the purge option, he didn't know what would happen to the poon if he did so.

  After seleg the “NO” option Levi felt his vision go bnk for a sed even though his eyes were closed, he felt as if his while body was going through a metamorphosis, he didn't know how long it sted, but it seemed it wasn't that long as he noticed that not much had ged when he opened his eyes.

  That is oside world at least, on the inside he felt like he was a pletely different person, he could feel himself stronger, faster, and mile.

  He could also feel Aologia’s shoside of him, it was a weird feeling that will defiake both of them a while to get used to.

  It also seemed that Levi could now sense Aologia’s location, like now he could feel his precise location was where he was standing, he felt that no matter how far Aologia was he would still be able to feel it, and it seemed to be the same for Aologia as well, ‘So that's the power of a spiritual bond.’ thought Levi in amazement.

  ‘What kind of sorcery is this?.’ Aologia seemed to say which Levi uood through their ablished link, Aologia didn't speak or word that out but Levi Uood it heless, it was magical.

  This was also another bonus aside from feeling each other's location, from now on he didn't o interpret Aologia's expressions or anything, he just uood him right away.

  After that Levi noticed the ges to his own body, he could feel immerength and vitality flowing through his entire being . And he could especially feel his Chi reserves, it felt like he had endless Chi at his bed call, so mu fact that it was making him intoxicated.

  And not just that, Levi could feel ara limb on his back etg at him to use it, trying to stretch that extra limb, a pair of beautiful big bck dragon wings sprouted from his back shog both Levi and Aologia -who seemed to be able to observe what was happening outside- senselessly.

  “Holy shit.” cursed Levi, not able to stop himself due to his shock as he started twisting and turning trying to feel ahe new addition on his back, “Buddy are you seeing this.” he asked Aologia in disbelief, who gave him an affirmative answer.

  (An: for people who are fused about how they're talking just think of it as telepathy)

  It was a weird feeling both talking to Aologia like that and the ges all around his body, deg to get a more accurate judgment of his current self he pulled up his states.

  Seeing his updated states Levi was at a loss of words he didn't know how to react, saying he was happy would be an uatement, especially when he saw his chi state.

  ‘With so much Chi I switch bay physical form at any time.’ he excimed in his head iement.

  Levi couldn't help but be ecstatic, he was getting stronger day by day aing closer to going bae, and it seemed Aologia had also gotten stronger sihe st time he checked his states.

  With this, one of the two major problems that were keeping him from returning to his home were fixed, now he only o focus on finding a way back.

  “Ha-ah, thank you buddy.” said Levi, sighing, addressing Aologia who was fused. He was really thankful for his scaly panion, the dragon thought seemed like he didn't prehend what all this meant and the full implications of it.

  ‘Sometimes I fet he's just a child.’ Thought Levi smiling wearily and hoping that Aologia didn't hear him, which seemed to be the case as he didn't get any reply.

  ‘So he only hear me if I wish for him to do so?’ wondered Levi in his head, ‘And it seemed that he didn't see the system tap earlier, whi hindsight was kind of stupid pulling it like that without making sure that he 't see it.’ thought Levi embarrassed by his rash decision.

  It isn't that he didn’t trust Aologia, the opposite actually he trusted him a lot more than some of his tribesmen, which was a weird thing to say about a dragon of all things, that he only met like a month ago and they were trying to kill each other but that's how he felt, and now that he was bound to him he trusted him even more.

  But, the system was his greatest support and greatest secret, he wouldn't reveal its existeo a now or ever, and with Gamer’s mind nobody dig into his mind and see his secrets.

  Levi suddenly got a curious prompt from Aologia, he could even imagine him tilting his head in curiosity, it seemed that he was standing around and thinking for far too long.

  “Sorry about that buddy, I was just too shocked with the ges.” said Levi, which seemed to satisfy Aologia as he too was a little startled by it.

  Closing his eyes and trying to feel any new ges to his body Levi felt a weird feeling in his throat going all the way down to his stomach, he was a little fused by what it was at first before he had an idea.

  Opening his eyes and looking straight forward Levi took a deep breath in filling his lungs with air, and just as he was about to exhale he trated on that strange feeling on his throat and stomach before exhaling.

  What came out of Levi’s mouth wasn't a normal breath but a huge breath of fire that stretched to the far end of the cliff he was on and scorched it bck wherever it passed, scarring the parrots that were close by senseless as they backup and observed him from afar while trembling with fearful look on their faces.

  ‘Oops.’ thought Levi feeling really guilty as he hurriedly closed his mouth, stopping the fire breath.

  The birds had invited him into their home, took care of him and Aologia, and treated him really well and now he had just gone and burned a part of their home, ‘At least there were no casualties.’ thought Levi, trying to fort and cheer himself up.

  Looking at the burning grass and scorched ground Levi couldn't help but feel a little depressed, he really miss his bending powers, if he had his water bending right now he could have just extinguished that fire with a wave of his hand, thankfully it wasn't that serious and would just flicker out in no time.

  He remembered the system notification when he had first arrived to the spirit world, it said that his bending wasn't strong enough to fight against the spirit world suppression, not that he couldn't use his bending in the spirit world. Sadly he couldn't think of a way to train his bending to make it strong enough to fight against the suppression without being able to use it.

  ‘Ha-ah, it seems I will have to wait till I am back to the physical world.’ sighed Levi regretfully, thankfully that goal did not seem as impossible now.

  “Sage should be doh his….” said Levi pausing to find the right word before tinuing , “Escapades.”

  “Why don't we pay him a visit, what do you say?.” asked Levi as he willed for Aologia to separate from him, which he instantly did as a bright light appeared on his chest from which Aologia came out head first nding on his feet and shaking himself off like a dog that just got out of water.

  Levi immediately felt his body being weaker and his absurd Chi reserves plummeting to almost ent -in parison to how they were before- It also put into perspective how weak he actually was pared some beings out there, he had beeing full of himself retly aing a little cocky but this experience had shattered all of that.

  He noticed something that made him shudder when he had been bond with Aologia just seds ago, ‘If he knew how to use his Chi reserves I wouldn't have sted a sed in our first enter.’ he thought wearily as he looked at his scaly friend who was now chasing a spirit butterfly around, blissfully unaware of the incredible power his body was holding.

  He felt like he did that day when he fought the por bear, he felt weak and helpless, except the ehis time wasn't as obvious, it was the hidden dangers of the spirit world and its inhabitants, he had been safe all this while but the moment he left the parrots territory he didn't know what he might face.

  What if he entered a spirit as strong or strohan Aologia who DID know how to use its full power?

  ‘I am still weak, I o get stronger, much much stronger, strong enough that I protect myself, my friends and my family from all threats that might e our way.’ thought Levi iermination while g his fists, before turning around and walking towards sage’s Thorne room, it was time to say goodbye.

  Seeing him go, Aologia looked between him and the spirit butterfly, seemingly making the most difficult decision in his life before finally turning arouantly and running after Levi.

  ‘At least I am not alohought Levi, feeling warmth envelop him as he looked at the small dragon walking and hopping alongside him.
