Chapter 16: Attachment
It had been six months since he came to this world.
Was it because of the mana he now possessed? His soul, which had grown stronger and recovered considerably? Or perhaps the effects of his ability, Ephemeral Soul Rebirth?
Ellis didn't know. But one thing was certain... he had already learned the language of this world.
He could even speak now, at least simple words, despite his small tongue making articulation somewhat difficult.
And what about his body? He could walk... though clumsily.
His progress over these past six months had been rapid. Not only in adapting to this new world, its language, and his surroundings, but also in his physical development. More than that, he had made advancements in his mana sensing and skill creation.
There were many things.
But beyond all these developments, there was one thing he never expected to happen.
Yet, it did.
... And it was related to Silas, his maid.
He had grown too attached to her, something he truly hadn't expected.
