《The Summon》Chapter 39 - We have not done that

Advertisement

While Elise had managed to identify the voices, she still was unable to understand what they were saying.

But she became better and better at identifying single words and getting a more and more coherent meaning out of them.

She took another sip from her glass of water. While the first gulp she took helped with an immediate need, because of how dry her mouth had been, it had not been refreshing. But this one was. Oh, it was glorious, as the cold water slid down her throat. After she recovered from how refreshing this was, as well as after she emptied the glass, she reconcetrated to the task at hand.

Of course, this task was understanding what the Archmage and her summon where saying. This was also strange, why where they here?

Jonathan was at least somewhat understandable, he was her summon, but he did not like her very much, so there was that.

But the Archmage should have far better and more important things to do than sitting in that room, seemingly waiting for her to not only wake up, but also to become coherent enough to hold a conversation with him.

At least that was what she thought, but she might be wrong. For all she knew, the Archmage was sitting there to funnel magic into some device and wanted to speak with Jonathan about the summon’s home, and Jonathan, for some strange reason was waiting for her to wake up.

But that was very unlikely, for several reasons. So why were they here?

She would not find that out while not understanding a word, so she continued to try and decipher what was being spoken.

After some time passed, did she ask for another glass of water, her voice sounding far clearer this time around.

But she also realized something strange. While she could not understand much of what the Archmage and Jonathan were speaking about, she could clearly speak herself, and if she could trust her senses and memory, which was not a given, admittedly, clearly.

But after some more time, she finally managed to understand a whole sentence. And soon thereafter, she managed to understand them more and more clearly, until she had, finally no trouble at decoding the spoken word anymore.

Jonathan and Heinrich Tablos were speaking about how great the wheel was, of all things they could talk about.

After a while of listening, she finally decided to interrupt: ”Does anyone here know what happened to me? And where am I exactly? I am pretty sure that this is not my room.”

Tablos laughed and answered: ”Special kind of magical feedback loop, we forgot a few things about the summoning spell. The good news about that is that we have finally found out what was wrong with Jonathan, and fixing that is not to difficult, we believe at least. The details of that can come later. You are in the school hospital. The reason for that is not the best. We thought you would wake up pretty soon after you fell unconscious, but after around three course began to become concerned and brought you here. You slept for nearly 20 hours by now, so we are happy that you are awake and coherent. What do you want to eat?”

Elise did not know what to say? But she did realize something very interesting, Jonathan was not happy about what the Archmage was talking about, especially whenever the word ”we” had been said by the aforementioned.
