Chapter 158: Midnight Practice
Chapter 158: Midnight Practice
"Uh... Why all of a sudden, Ely?" Elena tilted her head slightly but also felt quite surprised by Elysia's proposal.
"There is no special reason, I just thought, something... Sometimes, it comes to my mind, don't you feel bored with 25 years of living only in the Soul Realm, Sister Elena?" Elysia spoke in a soft tone while playing with her own fingers. She was a little uneasy whenever it was imagined by her.
"Ahh... That, you know, Ely... Even though it's 25 years, my time when I woke up wasn't more than a fifth of that. This Soul Realm is like my home, I feel very comfortable here." Elena understood Elysia's concern, then she closed her eyes while enjoying the empty space that made it feel so pleasant.
"Home, huh... Can we build our house here, is that possible? Hmm..." Elysia put her hand on her chin, deep in thought.
"Eh? Yes, that's it! Ely, do you want to build our house here? Is this possible? How do you make something for here, or bring something here?" A light bulb suddenly flashed in Elena's imagination. She had a great idea.
"That, I didn't really know either... We are in spirit form, right? Whereas items are real and solid. Even though we can touch them, that doesn't mean they can be put into this Soul Realm..."
"Hmm... In that case, that looks like it is true... Can we use magic here? Ely, try making something for me, we'll find out about it hum, hum..." Elena floated right beside Elysia.
She tugged Elysia's white dress a little, so Elysia didn't overthink about difficult things.
As for Elysia, she immediately returned from her train of thought and nodded at the girl beside her. If her magic could also be used by her spirit, then that would be a big thing.
*poof*
A mass of warm energy that quickly became a tiny ball appeared in Elysia's hand, the fireball which had wholly become a ball.
"Woah, this is amazing! You can also use magic here! That way, we can make our own house!" Elena cheered with joy. She didn't hesitate to lightly poke the red ball in Elysia's hand to make sure.
"Sister Elena, how about you? You can use magic just like me, right? Now it's your turn." Feeling the same thing, Elysia smiled with pleasure.
"Ahh, about that one, Ely... Surprisingly, I can't use magic like you here. I've tried it a few times, and now, see? There's no reaction whatsoever." To ensure that, Elena practiced it, but no magic appeared in her hands.
"Uhh, this is weird... You can use magic while using my body, though... Ah! I remember something." Elysia scratched her head with a clueless expression, but an idea came after that.
"Hmm? What did you just remember, Ely?"
"Hhmm, hmm... Sister Elena, remember the story I told when I was first stranded in this world and spent the night in a cave?"
"Yes, I still remember that. There you met Jimmy, and because you were panicking and feeling very threatened, you accidentally came out of your body in your spirit form, right? Then..." Elena eloquently conveyed what she heard a few days ago.
However, the main point had been mentioned. Elysia gave a stop hand gesture with a smile and a nod. "Yes, let's try that first. We'll spend the night trying to find out, I'm sure there's something."
"Um, alright... We'll try that. It's something we've never tried before, I'm a little nervous." Excited and nervous at the same time, Elena was a bit complicated.
Shortly afterward, Elysia gave Elena assistance instructions to get her out of the Soul Realm and out of the body. It didn't work right away, but in the end, Elena managed to do it. She managed to get out of the Soul Realm in spirit form.
'Ely, Ely, I did it! Oh wow, I can also use magic when I'm out here! ' Elena happily wandered around the bedroom and used her magic, similar to telekinesis ability. She used it here and there to test her magic.
Luckily Evelyn and Ella were still fast asleep... Otherwise, they might scream in terror when they saw some objects floating around for no reason.
'Woah, that's a good thing.' Elysia clapped her hands from within the Soul Realm.
'Ely, you come out too, we fly around together like ghosts hovering around hehe...' Elena giggled with amusement. She couldn't help but laugh as she imagined what kind of prank she could do.
'Okay, wait a moment. 'Didn't linger any further, Elysia immediately tried the same thing.
After calming herself down, as if she had entered a sacred state, she tried to break herself out of the Soul Realm.
However, the expectations didn't always match the reality that really happened. As if there was a wall holding Elysia out from there, she was still inside the Soul Realm, pitifully crashing into the invisible wall.
'Ow, it hurts...' Elysia hovered aimlessly in the Soul Realm while holding her head with an anguish expression. She felt quite dizzy, and the world around her was spinning.
'Awh, Ely, are you okay?' As if feeling the same sense of urgency, Elena immediately returned to Elysia's body. She entered the Soul Realm without waiting for an answer.
"No, I feel dizzy. There's an invisible wall holding me out. It seems like only one of us can get out of the Soul Realm for some reason." Elysia immediately closed her eyes, worried about vomiting because of the dizziness she suffered.
"Oh my pitiful little sister of mine, hush-hush, the pain will go away, and you will get better soon..." Elena floated closer, gently stroking the dizzy girl's head.
It only took no more than two seconds. The dizziness had disappeared. "Hum, I'm feeling better already, I'm fine."
"Phew, thank goodness... I've never tried to get out of the Soul Realm at all. Fortunately, I haven't tried that, or I might end up hitting that invisible wall too." Elena sighed in relief.
"It's because you never tried that... Okay, so our spirits can go out and roam out there, but only one of us is the limit. But I'm sure there is more to it, given Earth's supernatural abilities about the spirit that can leave the body. "With that, Elysia was able to draw her first conclusion.
"Ah! I know that one. Regarding people who can make their spirits come out of their bodies. It has a distance limit, and conditions such as the body cannot be moved, or the spirit cannot return to the body." Elena, the almost all-knowing encyclopedia, explained it cheerfully.
"Um, yes, like that." Elysia nodded in agreement.
After that, they did some things that really made them curious, their next practice. So strange but true, Elysia and Elena could even use their magic in the world around the body as well.
As a result, Elena hugged Elysia with great satisfaction. Apparently, she could also use her magic even though she was still in the Soul Realm, but that was only for things toward the real world.
However, that was more than enough. Elena could do some divine punishment with this, for anyone who dared to bully her sweet little sister.
"Sister Elena, don't you feel sleepy? You usually sleep a lot..." Elysia glanced slightly upward at the girl who was hugging her in merriment. From any angle, Elena was always bigger and taller than her.
"I don't know, I'm not feeling too sleepy... Ah, no way, it's one o'clock now... Ely, we better go to bed first. I'm afraid we'll be sleepy tomorrow." Elena was a little surprised when she saw the clock on the table near the bed.
The body that fell to a particular state did not prevent her or Elysia from knowing the body's surroundings.
"Bed? But there isn't a bed here."
"Then, try making one for me? Is your unique magic able to do that, hmm... Let's see, we still have a house to build." Elena muttered softly, letting go of the innocent girl who had a blushing face.
"So, what should I do?"
"A supernatural bed? Ethereal bed? Subtle bed? Bed in spirit form? Take your choice and give it a try hehe..."
Listening to Elena's pleasant chuckle, Elysia giggled too. Afterward, she immediately tried what she could do about earlier suggestions.
They were in a world of magic, where some logical things were sometimes not enforced by the world's laws. Perhaps, with her unique magic, Elysia could manifest something Elena yearned with the help of her colorful imagination.
Gradually appearing, the golden magic energy immediately formed a mass of magic energy and accumulated until it became a bed as expected.
"Woah, wow! A canopy bed! Look, Ely, as I said before, your magic is so special, you can do almost anything as long as you know what it is like or how it happened." As soon as the bed appeared and became real, Elena immediately threw herself onto the soft bed.
"Hehe... Yes, that's right, phew... Dear me, I managed to do it... So, how about our earlier discussion Sister Elena? Would you like to take over my body for some time? Tomorrow is a holiday and Blessing Day, I think that's great." Elysia came and lay beside Elena, bringing up the things she had asked earlier but not yet got a definite answer.
