The Dragon'S Blue Gem
(S2) Chapter 79 [The Separate Soul]
AQUA POV
{ ......... Really deh. Don't make singles envious you already have a fiance, Aqua! }
I looked at the origin of the voice. The little elf who looked a bit transparent just walked into my house.
"Oh, Aure yes. Long time no see!" relax reply.
{ Long time no see... Your neck!!! Since you're not out, that's why I came again!!! How many people are waiting for you!!!!! }
Aure was furious once she arrived. I understand why he's angry, but he shouldn't have just met after all this time.
Without Aqua realizing it, Aure entered the dungeon with a feeling of worry because Aqua should have been out since 5-8 years ago if it went well. But despite the 10-year wait (dungeon time ), Aqua is not out-going. How could he not worry?!
{ I'm worried about you damn! But what the fuck is this?! It turns out that you are procrastinating out because you have a new lover!!!!! }
Aure's shrill voice pierced my ear. Mika just laughed a little at seeing the two of us.
"Don't get mad. I'm not delaying my exit because I want to play around. Right now Mika and I are doing research and training together."
{ Heh! Research said?! At least not important }
Aure underestimated me too much. Actually he was not pure so, it was just that for him any research would be trivial when compared to the feelings of Aqua's friends who were waiting for him to return.
"Yes, it's not important. Only unlimited mana experiments and the incorporation of races or elements over 2. Lately we have also been trying to use more useful non-element magic. It's not important, though."
I tried to make my words sound humble, but I seemed to be saying them with pride.
{ What?!!! Unlimited where?!! Race merger?!! A. a.. aa... }
Aure was speechless to her surprise. The research Mika and I conducted was considered impossible and taboo for most races in Demetria. No wonder his reaction was so.
"Well, like you said, it doesn't matter. Forget it, what do you mean fiancee?" ask me to divert the conversation. This is what made me curious.
Fiancee yes...
If Aure guessed because she saw me sleeping on Mika's lap, it could have been. But this elf is not a sensitive fairy, so it definitely isn't that. Is there another reason?
My only fiance is Ruby.
{ It matters!!!! Aghh!!! Nevermind!!! }
Aure folded both her hands on her chest. The little elf flew up to Mika and looked at her fixedly.
Mika was a little uncomfortable with that suspicious Aure gaze. He just smiled awkwardly.
{ Why are you asking such a thing? }
"?"
Mika and I don't understand what Aure means. Why is our engagement certain? Although I actually like Mika as the opposite sex, our relationship is not yet official. I don't want to shoot him before I clarify my situation. At least until I end my engagement to Ruby after her goal is achieved
{ Kan you yourself binding the engagement contract. Why even ask me? I know because the red thread of the contract is connected between you... }
"?!"
"What did you say?!!!" surprised me.
Waitaminute!? How can I try it!?
I woke up quickly and shook Aure's small body.
"Explain me!!! I only tied an engagement contract with one person. How can Mika too?!"
Aure's eyes twitched. His head was dizzy from this shock.
{ Stop!!! I... dizzy!!! }
"Ah, sorry."
I release Aure carefully. Spontaneously my body moved on its own. What Aure said was too shocking.
"So?! Why is that so?!!" I just can't believe it.
Though actually more than anyone, Mika is the most confused here.
"What did they actually talk about?"
{ Where do I know!! I can only see the contract thread that connects you to my eyes! That's aja!! }
That shouldn't be possible! My engagement to Ruby had nothing to do with Mika. Why is Mika getting engaged to me now?!
"Oi~ can you explain to me first? What were you talking about?" mika asked with a creepy smile.
How should I explain it?!
".......... Like you explaining your situation back then, I think you deserve to know my situation as well."
Not knowing where to explain, I told Mika everything since I left the orphanage. The only thing I cover up is the part of me that reincarnates into the game world.
Mika listened carefully to my story without interrupting at all. Mika's serious face like that had only been seen when she did the research. Since Aure was not interested, she left us to look around the 100th floor until my story was finished.
"That was all until I met you" I said, ending the story.
"......."
Was she upset that I agreed to an engagement with Ruby just like that?
No. He must be angry.

Meanwhile, in Michael's mind
MICA POV
My mouth is tightly closed. Right now I really don't know what to say to this kid in front of me.
Aqua seriously explained everything from the beginning, not just about the engagement. From there I knew that Aqua really appreciated me.
Hufth...
Engagement...
Airella and Tiara...
I am very similar to Tiara...
It took me a while to digest everything he explained.
Right now I really hope that I'm insensitive. As long as that person has the slightest sensitivity, he must be aware of what is really happening to us.
"You must have noticed it, too, right? All you want to do is make sure. Am I wrong?"
"!"
After a long while of thinking, I finally said something from my mouth. Aqua was startled for a moment, but instantly calmed back down.
"You're right in the corner of my mind, I realize that," Aqua replied somewhat hesitantly.
Yep. The explanation of this situation is only one.
"The "blood contract is the contract that binds the soul. The only reason I'm also connected to your contract is only because my soul has a relationship."
"Aqua. Right now my soul is incomplete, you know that. All this time I was thinking, if only my soul that was not with me would have a different body."
"It's funny.I don't think it's true."
"Mica..."
"But the most surprising thing is that my separate soul can also be related to you. Is fate playing us?"
I hold my head full of information.
It will take a lot of time until I can accept all of this.
Aqua put on a serious expression. He asked permission to go look for Aure. I allow it, besides I also need a little alone time.
I put my body on this cold hardwood floor.
I don't know with everything...
I'm weary...
Ah, I almost forgot. Something was bothering me. I know my relationship with Ruby, but what about Tiara? Aqua says she has memories of past lives and Tiara was her younger sister back then. I also know that every soul has a previous life. The reincarnation wheel was set directly by the God Dionysus, the God of reincarnation.
Tiara's... Aqua... Airella...
All things that should not be interconnected begin to approach each other.
Dewi... what are you that connects all of this?
If true... Can you explain to me everything?
.........
Ah... What am I thinking...?
Because it felt so heavy, these eyes began to shut.
"Is it possible that I was the reincarnation of Tiara, Aqua's younger brother first?" mummify slowly.
