Chapter 916 Meeting Again Part 2
Aika panicked and Flash Stepped out of the way. She was about to escape thinking that the Elf was hostile but immediately changed her mind when she suddenly called out her name, "Aika?"
Aika immediately turned around and stared at the Elf quietly.
"You can finally use that ridiculous technique. Does that mean you already regained your memories?" Riveria carelessly muttered after recalling what she heard from Kisuke regarding Aika's situation. Only when Aika kept staring at her without saying any word back that she found her reaction strange, "...Wait... Could it be that you haven't?"
However, Aika just continued staring at her from a distance.
"..." Riveria blinked. Aika also blinked back, '...I messed up.' Thought the former.
"I'm sorry. I got the wrong person." Riveria immediately turned around and wanted to pack up.
But Aika wouldn't just let this chance go and reappeared in front of Riveria, "Please tell me more."
Riveria wasn't surprised by her sudden appearance since she already felt where she would appear when she initiated her technique, 'Hmmm? But how? I shouldn't have the ability to see through that... At least not for now.'
It was her guest who answered her question, "You... Your eyes..." said Aika with a surprised tone.
"My eyes?" Riveria paused for a moment before running towards her tent and getting a mirror from her drawer. As soon as she lifted it in front of her face, Riveria's eyes widened as surprise and confusion took hold of her expression, "This is..."
Within her beautiful jade-colored eyes were very complicated and complex golden Magic Circles containing countless runes that transform each and every second, forming a new meaning behind the Magic Circles each time. Nevertheless, her confusion didn't last long as she intuitively understood what they meant, 'This is... the manifestation of my Demonic Power?'
Riveria already had an idea of how her new ability worked, but since she was alone, she couldn't confirm it. She looked through the entrance of her tent and saw Aika looking through it curiously, 'I already messed up but maybe I can use this situation to confirm things?'
After contemplating more about it, Riveria took out the crystal card for communication and sent a voice message, "Your amnesiac lover arrived at the place I'm staying at while using Flash Step."
She didn't attempt to conceal her voice and let Aika hear all of it, 'Now that she can use abilities that are beyond the normal people of this world, Kisuke's attempt of sending her back is as good as over.'
Kisuke, who had the same thoughts as her, immediately replied with a sigh, "There's no helping it. I'll leave the decision to you, but since she came there, it must be a coincidence that she found you. If she really had her memories back, she'd be coming after my head first."
Kisuke decided to give up. Not just because she'd already unlocked her abilities, but also the fact that he decided to flip this world upside down by introducing the mass-produced Soul Gears. It was only a matter of time before the Supernatural world and the Normal world melded together and stepped into their next advancement. At that time, Aika would inevitably come back no matter how many times he seals her memories since he knew that her Zanpakuto would only burst out again and again by being exposed to the Supernatural world, 'I hope that when she returns, she'll have a clearer answer to her questions. Else, this will be all for nothing.'
Aika, on the other hand, felt delighted that she'd finally found a clue and also became embarrassed while looking around her to confirm that she was the only one here aside from the Elf, 'Lover!? I have a boyfriend!?'
"Yes, you're the lover." said Riveria while keeping the crystal card and mirror, "But I'm sorry since that's everything I'll be able to tell you now."
Aika clutched her nodachi tightly and pleaded while stuttering, "C-could I at least see a picture of him?" Although she already had an idea who it was, she wanted to confirm it, 'It's that guy, right? Then why?'
"Sadly, I don't have any of those. Still, I can tell you a bit about him but only after you do me a favor."
"..." Aika swallowed a mouthful of saliva and replied, "What do I need to do?"
Riveria smiled and said, "That Flash Step, please show it to me several times."
"Do you mean that fast movement?"
"...You're using it despite not knowing what it's called?"
"I recalled how to use it yesterday."
Riveria walked out of the tent and went towards the direction of a large clearing, "So you have been practicing it and that carried you to this place?"
"That's precisely what happened. And whoever is on that other side of that magical communication device sure does know me well.", replied Aika as she followed her.
"Well... Although I've only known your group for a short while, it was a very tight-knit one that knows the ins and outs of one another." Riveria stopped walking before continuing, "Please do it here and I might ask you to do it multiple times until I'm satisfied."
Riveria's sudden clue drop caught Aika off-guard a bit but she didn't ask about it, 'These are things that I supposedly knew, so I can't get carried away with this information. What I need is the method of restoring my memories and nothing else.'
Aika took some distance from Riveria and was about to start when she thought of something, "By the way, you already knew my name but how should I call you?"
"Oh, right. Excuse my rudeness. I'm Riveria Ljos Alf. You can simply call me Riveria."
Aika nodded, "Okay, Riveria-san. I don't know what you're trying to achieve but please watch closely. I have no way of doing this slowly."
Riveria willed the Demonic Power within her and it instantly responded with the Magic Circles reappearing within her eyes in addition to a flat golden halo made out of rotating runes on top of her head.
Aika was shocked at this sight but focused on her task. A second later, Aika disappeared and reappeared a few meters away from her former spot.
"One more time, please." Riveria immediately requested.
Aika didn't say anything else and repeated it for Riveria several times until she heard her muttering under her breath, "I... I can really see it?"
Instead of requesting repetitions, Riveria instead took a step forward and the moment her foot landed, she disappeared from her spot and reappeared ten meters forward, with her face about to hit the ground.
