Zosia: Quick Transmigration System
Chapter 96 - 94- Arc 3

While asleep, Zosia suddenly finds herself in a white space.

"Huh? I am here again." Zosia muttered with a despondent sigh.

She decided not to move, crossing her leg and sitting down. Spreading her spiritual consciousness, she decided to check what is actually going on.

She noticed that the place flickered in and out like an illusion. Zosia frowned, she decided to use her illusion power to test the place out.

Melding her gift with the space, she closed her eyes in meditation.

She didn't know how long it has been, but the moment she opened her eyes, she was met with a sleeping beauty lying down beside her, no... A cracked beauty.

"You are finally done?" A hoarse shrill voice sounded.

'Seems like her vocal cords never recovered.' Zosia thought inwardly as she stared at the original host figure....err a spirit.

"So why did you bring me here? I thought you should be gone?" Zosia asked the question that was bothering her.

"I can't go till my wish is fulfilled and so far, you have been doing well. Please take care of my father. This is my obsession. Even if you don't get revenge, please."

Zosia stared at her pleading eyes. "You don't need to worry about that, it's something I will do anyway."

"Thank you." The spirit bent her body in a bow, "Thank you, I am really grateful."

"I know I wouldn't be able to live after you are done, but I hope to get to know you better." The spirit sat down in a lotus position as she sat across from Zosia who was still wondering how possible this was.

If it was possible for the spirit or ghost— whichever one she currently was to be able to meet the task taker in—, she looked around the place, she didn't know what to call the illusion like landscape she currently is in.

"This place, what is it called and where is it?"

"I don't know. I just wanted to speak to you and I kept trying and then this happened. I almost disappeared by trying to bring you in, your soul is very strong.

If you hadn't allowed yourself to.come in, it would be impossible for me." She commented.

So that's why she kept dreaming about the original host.

Zosia nodded, she had indeed felt a miniscule pull, and allowed herself to be pulled in.

"Is her intention really to just beg me to take care of her father?" Zosia didn't think so.

Nobody in the Imperial palace big or small had a naive mind. Staying in the palace taints a person mind. It forces you to do something in order to protect yourself, and sometimes, it ends up being extreme.

Zosia didn't think someone whose mother ignored and has been bullied without being able to fight back had a good heart.

She could either be selfish or have the mentality of wanting the world to burn with her.

She decided to use Analyze on her.

"Um... Can I get to know you better?" The spirit asked again, this time around, her statement becoming a question with her voice lower than before.

"Why do you want to know me. My work is to fulfill your wish and let your body rest in peace in the mortal world. If you end up knowing me, what good does it bring you?" Zosia said fiercely, scaring the spirit that she cowered.

Zosia frowned, seeing how she cowered easily, it made her look like a spineless coward.

Zosia wasn't wrong in feeling that things weren't that simple, maybe if it was another person, she would have been right.

"Give me a moment." Zosia took a deep breath to calm herself before opening the result she got.

"Sigh, I judged wrongly." Zosia muttered. "I shouldn't use my narrow mindset to judge."

Opening her eyes, she stared at the somewhat naive spirit, who even has an occupation.

"Usually, I am not meant to tell any soul anything about myself, but you already know about the soul world and you are also a taskee."

Nora looked at Zosia with a happy gleam in her eyes. She finally saw someone to talk to.

She was getting bored out of her mind in there and decided to follow the thread she kept seeing and was led to Zosia.

"I will call you Nora while we talk, since you are my namesake."

Nora nodded her head like a chicken pecking on grains.

"I am Zosia Meave Branden. Meave Branden was the name I gave myself when I was applying for a household registration. Zosia was given to me by my master."

"Master? Where you like a martial artist or those immortals described in books." Nora asked, her eyes filled with curiosity.

"No. I was an assassin and I died at 25 due to a scheme. I found myself in the soul world by chance."

"Then, can I be your little sister." Nora asked.

Zosia thought for a moment, then reached into her space. Two black bracelet appeared in her hand.

"Sure." She gave a bracelet to Nora and put on one.

It was something she had done during her free time and it had no magical use whatsoever.

Nora giggled, playing with the bracelet, she put it on her hand. After admiring it for sometime, she turned towards Zosia.

"Thank you. I was getting bored to death, I had to come out of that enclosed space they put me in. Then I noticed a thread and followed it to meet you." She shrugged. Placing her hands under her chin, she had a bored look on her face.

"I wonder if I can come to the soul world?" She asked Zosia who was just staring at her.

Zosia was still digesting the information she got.

So those souls were usually kept in an enclosed room and they had Karma threads linking them to the task taker.

Zosia looked at Nora, "And she could leave the place with ease. " She thought.

"I don't know, I am just a newbie in the soul world. Barely able to make any wave."

"Sigh!" Nora sighed despondently.

"Can I stay with you and at least talk to you anytime?" Nora asked. She didn't want to go back there. She might end up being suffocated to death with boredom.

"Can you see what I do outside?" Zosia asked.

"No, except you let me." Nora shook her head in response.

"Tell me. Do you know why the Emperor only had you as his daughter?" Zosia asked the question that has been on her mind since she found out that the Emperor only had one child.

"Well, it's the curse. It took effect during Dad's time but funny how it didn't affect his other brothers only him who is sitting on the throne."

"Tell me more."

"I should start with, it's a long story. Actually my grandfather had an engagement with a lady but fell for her friend instead, who is my Dad's mother.

There were a group of uprisers who infiltrated the palace in a guise to get a stone which up till today, I don't believe it has the kind of power accorded to it.

The Emperor found out the traitor when she was in search of it, and in a bid to silence the Emperor stabbed him with a poisoned dagger.

The person happens to be Uncle Adrian's lover, so he hates himself for it, feeling that it was through him she was able to enter the palace.

They didn't understand what was going on and to remove the poison they had to first find out where the stone they are looking for is and ended up inviting a Female monk who happens to be my grandfather engaged lover.

She woke him up and he spoke about what happened but cursed his descendants that they will vanish from the face of the earth.

Luckily for my Dad, he was able to get, you know who pregnant though I ended up loosing my brother and hence came my title as the black star."

Zosia could tell that Nora just summarized everything for her. She could see the hurt in her eyes.

Zosia kept quiet, unsure of how to comfort her.

"No need to feel for me. Thanks to you, I no longer feel that hurt or obsessed with them. Apart from my father who cherished me and the only person I want to protect, I don't really care about the rest."

"Are you sure you are okay?" Zosia asked, she could see tears brimming in the young girl's naive eyes already.

Scooting closer to her, she patted her at her back.

Nora burst into tears. Burying her head into Zosia bossom, she suddenly felt the sense of security she had never felt before.

Feeling safe, her cries got louder. She knew the world was bad and not everything was in black and white either.

Even as naive as she is, she still knew that somethings are not easily found. It's either by fate or luck.

Nora suddenly felt that, maybe it's fate that connected her to Zosia.

"Thank you." She muttered as she snuggled in Zosia's embrace.

Zosia chuckled. "It's okay." She patted her back rhythmically.

Remembering that she has her lessons tomorrow, she held Nora by her shoulder and raised her up.

"I don't know if they will notice that you are gone, but you can meet me here every night. For now, we should each go back."

Nora nodded her head and wiped her tears.

"Thank you sister." She smoothly called out with a smile.

Zosia nodded her head and waved at her before leaving the space. She opened her eyes to see the ceiling of her new courtyard.

"What a day." She muttered and drifted off to sleep.

=========

Sigh!

School would be beginning in Monday. I pray I would still be able to maintain the daily updates. Thank you for your support so far.

I am really grateful.
