614  Phenomenon and a butterfly [Zoe's POV: ]

My name was called just now but, we all were still hugging this poor little baby. I should go but… just a moment more.

[{ "You should go now Zoe." }]

The vice headmaster had alredy called my name the second time and was looking at all of us, actually, I knew everyone else was looking at us and how we were hugging the big egg.

The confused and curious looks they all had was funny in a way but more importantly, it was my turn now, and, everyone else was waiting because I was here, doing this strange thing that they all did not understand.

But, everyone around me, the people that were hugging the egg with us, understood my feelings and didn't push me. Even big brother who was telling me to go now didn't force me. He also understood just what kind of emotions I was feeling right now.

'Having to live alone for a long time…'

Mom had lived by herself for hundreds, perhaps thousands of years in that tower.

She was alone and spent her days all by herself doing things that anyone with an abundant spare time on their hands could think about. She had done anyone can think and beyond in that time and after that… she had nothing to do anymore.

She must have just… lived, all by herself in that lonely place until big brother came there. But before him, she had nothing to do, no one to talk to, or anything else other than just existing in that place.

She couldn't die, and even if she died, she would be reborn with all her memories. She would be the same person, just that she would be far weaker than she used to be.

It would be a new start for her but, she would still have to repeat everything the same way she had, and since there was nothing to do to beguin with, it must have been even more lonely for her.

'I don't have her memories but, just from what I have received from her, I can tell she had been in a constant pain caused by that eternal loneliness. I know just how difficult it must have been for her. That's why I can relate with all the pain big brother has, all the pain that big sister Elle has, as well as all the pain this unborn creature must have had to go through all by themselves.'

I know that, that's why I try my best to be nice to Heath, help them in any way I could, and do my best to heal that pain of theirs.

'I will do the same for this unique creature, but, even though I want to hug this cold egg forever and hive it my warmth, I couldn't let everyone wait just because of my selfish wish.'

I can continue hugging her after doing the summoning process and I don't think it will thke that long of a time anyway.

'Big brother said mom found her own familier after a very, very long time of searching all over the world. And just the fact that she found one was amazing since we divine beasts with a very pure and unique soul hardly ever find a creature whose soul resonates with us on any level.'

Summoning a creature that has the same soul resonance as me would be a near impossible task even for a summoning circle of that caliber. The chances were less than one percent anyway so I didn't have any high expectations.

For what we know, I will most probably end upsommmoning nothing at all… or perhaps the summoning circle will break because of my energy. I don't know.

'Still, everyone had to be waiting just because of me… and that wasn't right.'

[{ "I will be right back, little one." }]

"Wish me luck everyone~."

After giving everyone a warm smile and receiving their best wishes; Luna just waved at me with her two hands though, she was a uniquely cute person; I quickly went up to the stage.

"I apologise, vice headmaster!"

And the first thing I did after climbing the stage was to bow at the vice headmaster and the other people there. Some precious time was wasted because of me.

"It's alright now. Just, go there and get ready for the summoning."

The vice headmaster didn't seem to be angry about this incident. She was more interested in seeing just what kind of creature I was going to summon and was excited about that.

She was good at hiding that excitement though so, no one noticed it. And the same was true for the headmaster. He was excited but, his expression remained the same like it had been from the start of these summonings.

But, well, that expression contained a calm smile, sharp eyes, and positive body language. It was difficult to make out what was actually going on in that strange head of his.

"Alright everyone. We will start with the summonings- hmmm? What?"

I wanted to try a little and make out what was going on in that strange head though, but, as soon as I stood on my place on the end of the magic circle, for some unknown reason, atmospheric Mana started gathering around me and my own energy started flowing inside the summoning circle before us.

'Strange…'

The rate at which my energy was draining out of me wasn't alarming for me, but comparatively speaking, all the energy that was going inside that magic circle and seeing how it was activated on its own, it was obvious that the headmaster wasn't the one who activated the magic circle this time.

'At least, it was obvious to a few smart people, teachers, and some of the inteligent creatures. This was strange even to me.'

I didn't know why this was happening but, the magic circle was activated on its own and it wasn't even like it was summoning the creatures for all twelve people present on the magic circle.

Different from each turn, this time, the magic circle was glowing on its own in a single red-orange colour that resembled my hair perfectly.

The entire magic circle was glowing with that same colour and, I knew, I can tell from the unique feeling I suddenly had, that… something was coming.

Something was being summoned by this magic circle and though I had no idea what it was, I was pretty sure that whatever it was… it was nothing ordinary.

"No way…"

"T-this…!"

"A-a-a! An origin beast!"

"Something special is coming!"

And then the entire area we were all in, the garden of the ancient tree that we were in, was dyed in a unique red hue, as well as a bright red flame had covered the entire magic circle. Though, thankfully, it didn't hurt anyone.

The other students were safe and though there were flames, strong and pretty flames, there was no heat to this fire.

It almost seemed like an illusion, but, it was too real to be an illusion.

There was even Mana in these flames so they were at least real flames. Though, very strange.

'Hmmm… something fun is happening.'

I thought the chances were less than one percent but now that all of this was happening, it was clear that I was getting my own familiar.

I wasn't excited before but, this phenomenon, this strange thing where the summoning circle produces some unique phenomenon that only happens when an origin beast is summoned, increased my excitements many folds.

And, this magic circle had alredy sucked a third of my energy so, whoever was being summoned with this much power, was in no way anything simple.

Whatever it was, I was happy it was possibilities my own lifelong partner. But… even I wasn't expecting it to be…

'Haaaa. Wow.'

The magic circle stopped glowing after a few minutes and the flames vanished. After that, a tiny creature, which looked very simple, materialised above the magic circle, lifted its wings and, flew towards me.

'Beautiful…'

To others, I knew it must have looked like a simple colorless butterfly. However to my eyes, this creature was nowhere near the 'simple' that we knew about.

To my eyes that saw the true nature of everything, this creature… was one of the prettiest beings I had ever seen.

It was pretty, it was gorgeous, majestic as well. Not only it alredy knew most of the true about its own self, but, it was also a being of great strength.

It was an origin beast as well, and I can tell it had lived a very long life until now. However, even after being an origin beast… it currently belonged to nowhere.

'Pitiful one.'

It looked at me, and I looked back at it.

There was something about this creature that made it different from anything else. I could feel something just by looking at it.

It was a unique feeling. A strange one if I say so myself.

It was like we alredy knew each other for a very long time and that this wasn't our first time seeing each other in this manner.

It was very strange, different from how big brother or others discribed it, but, I could at least feel the belonging I felt by this one's side and perhaps, it felt the same so it flew towards me and landed on my arm.

"Hello."

[{ It is nice seeing you once again in this new form… master. }]

"Master…?"

It spoke back to me in a way that definely seemed like an old friend was greeting their best friend after a very very long time… no way.

"You…!"

[{ Haha, looks like you figured it out alredy. As expected of you… ah, right. You aren't my master yet. We should do the bonding first, right? }]

This was strange. Veryyyyy strange!

Big brother said it had died, but this…!

'New turn of events, haaaa… and the turn was sharp. So sharp even my head is spinning now…'

it was strange, but, well… let's see what happens now that we are together.
