Chapter 154 [Bonus ] Catching Up With Ava

"Master! Master! You're back!"

"Ava has been so worried about you"

Opening his eyes, the first thing Elric realised was that he wasn't back in reality yet

Contrary to his expectation of waking up back in Hogwarts, Elric unknowingly found himself back in his Small world

Only this time, the little world fairy Ava was currently fluttering all around him as she expressed her worry.

"Master, do you know how scared Ava was!?"

"Back then when the master was fighting against those bad guys outside, you suddenly fainted after making your last move"

"Not only that, your consciousness suddenly disappeared from your body"

"Ava thought the master was gone forever"

With tears in her big eyes, Ava began to use her little hands to pull Elric's hair to yo express her dissatisfaction

And Elric watching her go on could only smile helplessly. After all, she was only just caring about him

Also, he couldn't imagine himself getting angry at someone so cute

Looking at her puffed cheeks, Elric let out a light chuckle

"Haha, it seems that goblin didn't lie to me, I'm finally out of that depressing place"

Feeling the familiarity of the world below his feet, and looking at the lively Ava, Elric knew that this was his world.

Not some subspace some creepy goblin trapped his consciousness

Not Elias a world which he inexplicably travelled to

Not the blue star which he came from.

This was Avalon, a world born from his soul, his world!

Taking a minute to admire Avalon, Elric nodded in satisfaction.

It seemed that while he was away Ava was busy.

Now the trees had been spread all over the continent, and the volcanoes and oceans rearranged.

All in all, under Ava's efforts, the whole of Avalon had gotten an orderly feel to it.

"Oh? Ava, it seems like you worked hard while I was away"

Patting her head, Elric spoke slightly as he tried to appease her anger.

"Hehehe"

Feeling Elric's pat, she narrowed her eyes in enjoyment.

However, realising that he could see her, Ava quickly swatted his hand away.

"Humph"

"Of course, I worked hard, obviously I am Ava!"

Turning around, he raised her chin sky high as humphed to Elric's attempt,

Obviously, her anger could not be swept away by a mere head pat.

Seeing this, Elric knew he had to use his secret weapon

"Oh no! It seems that Ava is still angry at me, should I just leave and let her cool off?"

Shouting exaggeratedly, Elric pretended to go while peeking at Ava from time to time.

And sure enough just like Elric expected, hearing that he was about to leave Ava's expression quickly turned to worry.

"No! Don't go master, Ava was just joking!'

Flying into his chest, Ava quickly tried to stop him.

Ava, a world spirit born from Elric, unknowingly the more time passed, the greater her attachment towards him would increase

However, neither Elric nor Ava knew this fact, only Elric knew that her loyalty was at full level as soon as she was born.

Looking down at the little fairy on his chest, Elric decided not to tease her anymore.

"Alright Ava, why don't I tell you everything that happened while I disappeared and you let me know everything that happened in the outside world?"

Finally calming her down, Elric decided to get some information from her before heading outside.

As the spirit of the world born out of his soul, it was no exaggeration to say she was part of him

Things like observing the outside world should be easily possible for her, same with the A.I. chip.

And Ava hearing Elric's suggestion instantly agreed, after all, she too was curious where her master's consciousness disappeared too.

Thinking of this, she immediately started telling all the things that had happened this past week.

"Alright master, Ava has been watching your body for a while now, and unfortunately the state of your body is quite weird"

"Oh! And that human, the one that's friends with the young master"

"George was it? He and some other humans have been taking turns watching the young master's body"

Taking turns?

Hearing Ava say this, Elirc realised the time his consciousness was a way was probably a long period.

Maybe days, weeks, months, or even years.

Although back then the goblin said that only one week would have passed, but Elric still had to confirm from Ava

"Ava, could you pause for a bit?"

"Quick question, how long has my body been unconscious?"

Looking at the little fairy in his palms, Elric asked nervously hoping that it wouldn't have been too long.

"Um… that? I'm not sure master"

"However, I think it was about a week."

Hearing Ava say this, Elric's tense mood calmed down.

"It seems there's some bit of truth in that goblin's words"

"Once my main body is up, I should really try and confirm the rest of his words"

"Oh and study divine power while I'm at it, if what the goblin said was true, the potential of faith is huge, maybe not less than mana"

Making a mental note of these things, Elric was relieved that only one week had gone.

Now the mood of most of the students should still be low because the sudden war, hopefully, his appearance can change that a bit

However, before going out Ekric still needed to hear on all the things that had happened this past week from Ava

"Oh yes master, this also happened…..".

"And that…"

"Also that thing went boom!...."

Soon, in the empty small world, a strange scene of a young white-haired man sitting cross-legged with a fairy on his shoulder was staged.

Not caring about the time, both Elric and Ava talked about their experiences this past week, with an occasional ooh and ahh livening up the mood.

For the first time in a long time, Elric felt free of worries.

Soon the time passed, and Elric and Ava had finished their recap session

"Alright Ava, I have to wake up now. "

"I'll see you again once I've sorted everything on the outside world"

Waving at Ava's reluctant figure, Elric's figure slowly disappeared from the small world.
