"So what I think is happening is that when the diary somehow has gathered enough of your miko energy, it condenses and manifests into something I have so desired for decades, a body, to which I can extend my soul into. The energy, and thus the body, is anchored to the diary, but, unfortunately, the energy is hard to keep condensed and easily evaporates so I cannot hold form for long."
The girl nodded but I noted her glassy eyes. I would not be very surprised if I was merely meditating ideas "out loud" to myself.
"That is why I think that burst of power from you in the field allowed me to appear before you. It goes to follow that another show of great miko power would cause it to happen again."
"So Tom-san want me use lots of miko ki? I not good. I am not good at using it. Maybe it not, won't work though. I need danger usually."
"Surely trying wouldn't hurt right?" As strong of a personality as this girl had, she sometimes lacked confidence in her abilities. I haven't exactly seen other miko in action to compare her to but if her powers were giving me new life, she had to be somewhat remarkable.
"Okay….if Tom-san really wants me to…." Then the girl took up a nearby arrow and brought it downwards at an alarming speed onto the diary.
"WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT!" Thank Merlin her reaction speed was quick enough to stop before she caused too much damage. The point of the arrow merely pricked me but still I winced as if she ran me through with a sword. It was probably just the image of the scene that made me feel more pain than I should have.
"That was not what I had in mind. Do you not have a priestess school or something of the like around here that you can attend first?"
