CHAPTER 12

AURORA'S POV

I finally learned how to shield my though from Tom.

That means my thought are private now, which is a good thing.

Based on what I saw in Tom's memories, this whole world, everything we live through was just a mere novel, a fiction in Tom's original world.

My knowledge as a phoenix helped me to understand this better, since as phoenixes we already know that we are living in a multiverse.

Our world is only one out of many others.

And interactions between worlds are very rare occurrences.

Something that cannot be a mere coincidence.

Just like Arthur came to this world because of Agrona's plan.

There is a reason why Rom came here, there has to be something or someone behind it.

But, that's all what I know.

This something or someone is still unknown to me.

Unknown to Tom, to everybody.

But one thing is clear, as the time passes everything would be discovered.

All what I have to do is to get stronger, stronger to help Tom, stronger to change the fate of this world with my bond.

My bond, a human child, a nerd, that was reincarnated in my world, and was in the right place during the right time to save me.

It was our fate to bond with each other, to bond with this otaku.

Fate is really a complex notion.

Tom is really a good person, he really wants to help everyone, but he tries too much to carry everything on his own, that's why I have to get stronger to help my princess.

"Auro, how about we go spar a little bit?" Tom asked.

"in the Bat cave, right now?" "I asked.

" Yeah, right now, I left a clone here, and it's not really that late " Tom said.

"Ok, but don't exhaust yourself, you had just learned how to use the phoenix fire art, it might be difficult to fight with it" I said.

"" It took me 6 months to learn it, I really want to try it, " Tom said.

"You look like a child who had just acquired a new toy, hh" I said.

"what's wrong with that?" Ton said.

"Nothing, nothing at all, you sussy baka" Auro said.

"the number of memes you seem to retain from my memory is impressive, did you learn anything useful at all" I asked.

"b square \= a square + c square" I said jokingly.

"Very useful indeed, " Tom replied.

"" Okay let's go, you stupid gay"

"You're the gay not me, I love women" Tom said angrily.

"Prove It then" I said laughing.

"Just wait until I get a girlfriend" Tom said while heading towards the Bat cave.

"Let the spar being" some clone declared.

I was still in my animal form, looking like a big red bird,

I flew immediately as the spar begun, since Tom has an advantage on ground.

Tom on the other hand knew that this was coming so he manipulated gravity to pull me down, but this wasn't enough to put me down, it was pretty challenging to escape his grasp, but it was possible.

Tom was shocked to see this, that left me an opening I sent a fire spell towards him, he blocked it using a water barrier, the fog that appeared following his block, made him disappear from my sight.

I was using the fire spell as a trap, as I was following it, I knew he was going to block it, but then I would be able to attack him.

We clashed inside the fog, our clash was more than enough to cancel it.

And then a series of blows came from Tom I was avoiding each one of them.

Tom started augmenting his punches with fire.

That was dealing damage, but my regeneration was healing everything.

I used this for my sake and I sent him flying to the wall, he was damaged pretty badly, but he could manage that much, I hope.

I could see lighting sparks leaving his body, he's using thunderclap impulse.

Rasengans and Rasenshuriken variants were sent towards me, I avoided most of them, but a gravity enhanced one hit me all of a sudden.

I was stuck in my place for a few seconds, and a few seconds are more than enough for Tom to deal some damage.

He hit me multiple times using a rasenshuriken that has been enhanced with asuran fire.

And then he stopped the spar, to avoid hurting me more.

"You have got some powerful techniques up your sleeve Tom, but you have to be careful, that hit you have received from me, could have been a killer one, if I was your enemy, you are strong, but you must never underestimate your opponent" I said.

"Thanks Auro, I hope you didn't get hurt that bad" Tom said.

"Nah, I am not that hurt" I said.

"I'm excited to hear that, what do you think of my Rasengans mixed with the asuran fire" Tom asked.

"Those are some strong techniques" I told him.

"Nice!" Tom said.

"Now let's go eat something in your restairant Tom, I think you're starving right now"

TOM'S POV

After eating out, with my mother, father, Vincent, Tabitha, Auro, Ellie and Lilia.

As for why we were there.

Well, the whole family eats in the restaurant, they are Gojo's special guests.

My special guests.

We had great time together.

Mom and Tabitha kept gossiping, my father and Vincent kept talking about ways to enhance the security system.

Lilia and I kept talking about how close she is to awaken.

And we spoke about going to Xyrus Academy.

Aurora kept saying some jokes in my mind.

She was teasing me, mostly.

My beast will mastery has improved significantly, in the last year and a half.

My relationship with my family is good too.

I never really had fun with any of my previous *family*, Arthur's training is probably going well.

This means I haven't changed something important in the timeline.
