42 – Ungrateful

  Immediately he felt the blood flowing inside his and Aologia’s bodies, as well as the blood of some of the spirit animals close to him

  Taking a deep breath in again and exhaling it out Levi closed his eyes and trated on his blood without trying to move it, he had one hour in this state and he wasn't in a hurry to try anything.

  First, he noticed how his blood moved around his body, how fast it moved, and the amount of blood that spread around every er, it would be really idiotic to try bending his own blood and move it too fast or send too much of it to a specific body part and kill himself right then and there.

  ‘That would be an unfortunate ending to the one who is supposed to rise to the top of this world.’ thought Levi sarcastically, shaking his head in amusement at his own self-procimed title

  For fifteen minutes Levi stayed like that trying to remember everything about his own blood and how it behaved, after the fifteen-minute mark, Levi finally decided to try his theory.

  Moving his hands up and dowried to reach for his own blood and trol it, he decided that the safest way for now was to try slowing it down, even just a little, even if he messed up somehow or bcked out it shouldn't be too serious, his body could just resume its previous funs normally without his interference.

  Sadly for him, none of his attempts seemed to be w, but he didn't despair, he only had a one-hour window of opportunity every month to do this and he wasn't going to waste it, and so Levi kept at it, again and again moving his hands in blood bending motions, motions that he got from memories from the system.

  He was so engrossed in his attempts that he didn't notice Aologia who was staring at him for a while in curiosity before losing i, seemingly not g about his human friend's antiy longer.

  Turning around and the meadow they were on, Aologia's eyes shone as he ran his tongue around his mouth, his saliva dropping to the ground soaking it wet, it was time to feast.

  Lunging forward faster than any of the poor animals around could react, Aologia started his hunt. Levi although noticed Aologia getting further and further away through their shared bond but he didn't care too much.

  He knew his friend’s habits, it was a surprise that he even waited till now to start his hunt, and it didn't matter how far he went, with their bond he could talk to him and know his location at any time he wanted.

  And so for the forty minutes Levi tried every trid he could think of going at it for the entire forty minutes not stopping for even a sed, but sadly for him, he didn’t succeed and his one-hour window of opportunity .

  He wasn't disced though, he didn't pn to succeed on his first try, not even his sed one or third actually, he would just keep at it till it bore fruit, he'd only have to do it once a month for one hour so it didn't bother him much.

  Plus, he might have just imagi but he could swear that he felt his blood slow for barely a fra of its speed, sadly for him there was no way to firm it as even when he asked the system it said it didn't deteything.

  Opening his eyes and standing up Levi looked to the west, that was where Aologia was, Levi didn’t know if it was just a ce or if it was iional on his part so he wouldn't slow them down but Aologia was actually heading towards Koh territory, it was still a month journey away so Levi wasn't too worried.

  Shaking his head Levi looked around, he had one more spirit slot and there was no reason not to use it right away, if he didn't like the bond spirit he could always ge it, but if he had to choose one Levi would rather choose a spirit capable of flight.

  During his time practig flight he had grown rather fond of that ability and he would love to stantly have it at his disposal, not just when he was merged with Aologia.

  Looking up, it was no surprise to Levi that he could see a lot of birds flying around the sky, ‘This will be easy.’ thought Levi grinning from ear to ear.

  Stretg his right hand towards the sky a golden bow materialized in it followed by a golden arrow on his left hand that he put on the bow string and pulled.

  Taking a deep breath in and holding it Levi zoomed in on a spirit bird that looked like an eagle, the only differeween it and a normal one was that this one had blue feathers c its entire body.

  Following it as it flew in the sky cirg around, likely searg for prey not realizing that the roles were reversed and that it was the prey now, Levi loosened his left hand on the arrow releasing it.

  *Puish*

  The sound of the arrow tearing through the air was heard as it travelled at insane speeds impaling the spirit animal right in its wing, avoiding any possible lethal spots but taking its ability to fly which was Levi’s goal all along.

  Disabling the bow, Levi sped towards where the eagle was falling, reag it just as the eagle was about to hit the ground and catg it by its healthy wing, upon closer iion Levi noticed that the eagle was actually way much bigger than he had realized.

  Not hesitating for a sed longer in case it might retaliate Levi immediately activated spiritual bond, a light enveloped the eagle as it was instantly sucked into Levi’s body, there was a all, that's how big the strength differeween them was.

  Ohing that Levi instantly noticed was that the eagle seemed more of a puppet, or an inanimate object than a spirit animal, unlike when he and Aologia merged with each other, it seemed to not have any sciousness at all and could only follow basiands, which was fine by Levi.

  “I guess that's the difference when it's sensual versus when it's forceful.” muttered Levi as he stroked his shin.

  Deg to test any other differeer Levi trated on the familiar sensation on his back as two big blue beautiful feathery wings sprouted from his back, looking like those of an angel.

  “Thankfully they're big enough or the ple might have died for nothing.” said Levi awkwardly as he only now noticed that his feathers were way bigger than those of the eagles, if he had received the eagle ones he would have killed the poor avian for nothing.

  Running forward Levi jumped before he fpped his wings which carried him even higher as he flew in the dire in which he felt Aologia.

  Aologia pov

  *Num* *Num* *num*

  Aologia could be seen sitting on both four of his legs, and butt as he bite and chew the parts of dead spirit animals lying all around him, he even had a few fruits lying on the side, probably for dessert.

  Aologia couldn't help but think of how tasty this meal was, he had worked hard for it and it was totally worth it, if only Levi ate like him every time that would be amazing, they could go hunting whehey wanted.

  Sadly Levi spent most of his time sitting around and doing nothing, and when he did eat he would only nitpick at some fruits making Aologia despair, sometimes he even thought that his friend didn't need food at all before scraping that thought entirely.

  He shuddered even thinking about that, ‘A life without food? I would rather die.’ thought Aologia shaking his head from side to side to get rid of that harrowing thought.

  That is why he always went out aloo hunt from time to time, he even brought bae souvenirs to his friend on a while but he always rejected them with an awkward look on his face.

  ‘Humph, Su ungrateful friend, to reject the gifts of Aologia the great.’ thought Aologia taking another bite from his meal before looki.

  He could feel his friend had started moving closer towards him through this amazing ability he had created, ‘No matter his eating habits, but when it es to his intellect he's almost as smart as me‘ thought Aologia proudly, his head held high before he started eating his food even faster.

  Levi usually e this kind of food, but what if he ged his mind today and wao try it out?

  “Humph, this is my prey. He go hunt his own if he's hungry.’ thought Aologia before feeling a little bit guilty and stopped eating.

  Looking at the remaining body parts Aologia had a relut expression as though he was making a life-altering decision before he went to the side and started eating some fruits.

  ‘Whatever, I'll leave him some food, just this oime, he's my friend after all and I o take care of him.’

  ***

  Flying so high up in the sky that the ground was barely visible was Levi, enjoying his new abilities, the ground may be invisible to most people but for him? It was as if it was right in front of him. That was one of the perks he received from his eagle spirit aside from its wings and it was definitely worth it. He even started having sed thoughts about ging this spirit for another one iure, he didn't think it was worth it.

  ‘I just wait until I unlock more slots, but for now I'll be keeping it.’ thought Levi nodding happily.

  Before long he could see Aologia on the ground surrounded by body parts of all types of animals making Levi's eyebrow twitch.

  He could see his scaly frie some of them before stopping for a sed and going for the fruits, ‘Ha-ah, At least he seems to have had enough.’ thought Levi sighing.

  Landing on the ground he could see Aologia staring at him as if waiting for him to say something, ‘Does he think I will get angry at this?’ thought Levi as he looked around before shaking his head in amusement at his scaly friend and deg to be a good role model.

  “Let's go buddy, we have a long way ahead of us and the sooner we're on our way the better.” said Levi with a smile as he shot straight up.

  ‘That should put him at ease. I am really such a good friend, why would he even think I'd care about some random spirit animals.’ thought Levi, yes he cared about his friends, family, and the people who helped him and are close to him, but he was no saint, and Aologia should have figured that out by now.

  ‘I always fet he's just a kid, maybe that's why, no use trying to make sense of his every a.’ thought Levi decided that that was most likely the reason for his friend's behaviour.

  Seeing him take off Aologia was shocked for a sed before his shock turned inte and he spit fire on all the remaining body parts he saved for Levi burning them bck, a look of beirayed was on his face.

  ‘Humph, ungrateful, I'll never share my food with him ever again.' thought Aologia before flying after Levi, deg to give him another round of silent treatment.
