《Kindred》Chapter 9 - Miss is a Genius?!
Advertisement
“Kindred Spirit Link.” When Miss skimmed through the book, her eyes were sparkling.
“Fufufu~” She starts grinning creepily. Miss is weird.
She closes the book and walks over to me.
Miss? Why do you look at me with such creepy smile? Miss?
Miss! You are scaring me!
I grab the hem of my skirt and close my eye.
Suddenly, I feel hands on the back of my head and with one quick motion my head collides with something soft.
“Awuuu~” Surprised, I let out a weird noise.
Instinctively I wanted to cover my face with hands, but instead of my face, my hands landed on something soft.
“Kyaa~”
Eh? I slowly open my eye to find myself in Miss’s embrace.
Then I look at the place my hands landed.
……
“Awawawa.” This is bad! This is bad I tell you! Of all places where I could place my hands, why that place? Latifa, just because you got a name you became arrogant? Are you seeking death?!
Awawawa. This is baaad. I’m so scared, my hands won’t moveee. Uwuuuu.
“Ah~ The Qi is flowing inside me.” Miss says quietly.
That’s not Qi, that’s me panicking!
Boom!
Suddenly, a sound resembling a thunderstorm echoed through the library.
“Awa!?” Uwa! What? What happened!?
“That felt good~” Miss says and falls to her knees, while still holding me.
“Awawa?!” Miss, are you okay? Is what I wanted to ask.
Miss looks at me with a gentle smile and says,
“I’m okay, no need to worry. Your useless Miss just became a Martial Acolyte~”
What! Miss admitted that she is useless what hap- Nonono? What was that? A Martial Acolyte? Miss? That Miss? That Miss who was rumored to have broken meridians?
“Awuu!” No way! I unconsciously said.
Miss raises her eyebrow and says “You don’t believe me?”

“Awawa!” Of course! Of course, I believe you! There’s no way dare not to!
“Ei! Then I will show you! Look at this!” Miss extends her hand and little black flames start dancing on her palm.
“Awuu!” No way! Miss has a rare element! Only the greatest geniuses like the 4th Prince and 11th Prince have a rare element!
From my understanding, people unlock their first Element when they become a Martial Acolyte, the second one when they become Martial Sage and third when they become a Martial Saint. However, there are some exceptions, for example, the Emperor gained two new elements when he broke into a Martial Sage realm.
The ordinary elements are Fire, Water, Earth, Wind and Lightning.
Some of the rares I heard about are Wood, Space, Holy.
However, I never heard about black flames. For Miss to unlock a rare element, is she perhaps a genius?… What are Heavens planning?!
“Fufufu~ Startled Latifa is also cute.” Miss says with one hand on her cheek.
I was brought back to the reality.
“Now do you believe me?” Miss says with smile.
“Awuu…” I’m sorry for doubting you…
Miss takes my hand and goes back to the first floor.
She moves towards the elder behind the counter.
“Elder, I will be borrowing this one.” Miss says respectfully.
The elder raises his eyebrow and looks at the book in Miss’s hand.
“You can keep that one, no need to return it.” He says casually.
“Many thanks, Elder. Meira will remember Elder’s kindness.” Miss bows and leaves the library.ey

Tethered Souls
All humans are connected to the ether, the realm of magic, by invisible, intangible tethers. Tethers are a reflection of humanity, and etheral magic resists what it is to be human. The more 'human' you are and display, the more your tether constricts, restricting the flow of ether. Utilizing ether draws out the human psych, making it extremely difficult to use ether dynamically and for long periods of time. Burning ether allows a person strength unlike any other, sharpens the mind more than any enhancement drug, and allows the person to directly influence the physical world around them.Hugh Perigrine is unique. Orphaned at the age of 1, Hugh is a ward of the Imperial Empire and an acolyte to the Imperial Library. For reasons unbeknownst to him, he does not experience the world in the same way as his peers. He doesn't care for the war with the rebel armies. He doesn't feel the need to vocalize complaints. He doesn't hunt for gossip and there is no object that he cares enough about to desire. He does not fantasize. He is simply unlike everyone else. But Hugh can see things that others cannot, and he understands impossible forces at work around him. Hugh's entire being is latent with etheral power, and he is at the forefront of what is thought of to be possible and impossible.There is however, something that Hugh covets - the meaning behind who he is, why he exists, and where he comes from.
