Last time:
"You know what would've happened if she didn't stop me...Buddy..."
She then leans back a bit, causing Guiche to clearly see her red Glowing eyes.
"You'd be dead where you stand..."
The Headmaster's Office
On top of one of the Academy towers lies the Headmasters Office. Inside, three figures are seen observing a Crystal ball, Professor Colbert, Headmaster Osmond, and the Headmaster's secretary, Miss Longueville. within the Crystal shows the Duel currently happening at the Vestri Court.
"I thought duels were forbidden on academy grounds." Miss Longueville exclaimed.
"W-well, yes i suppose so," Colbert coughed awkwardly into his hand before answering, "Specifically, the rules forbid aristocrats or any member of nobility to fight a serious duel due to the damage either would cause to themselves and the property. however," And this is where Colbert released another sigh, "A noble having a duel with a commoner...or familiar, as the case may be, technically isn't considered as illegal or rule breaking simply because it hasn't happened before."
Miss Longueville sucked in her tongue and gave an annoyed grunt. The professor and headmaster did so as well, at least inside their head, they had practice in holding in their reactions from many years of dealing with the inner nobility. They turned back to the crystal., and what they saw shocked them.
They watched with bated breath as they see Louise's Familiar weave through Guiche's valkyries easily, dodging all of their attack, before releasing small gasps of disbelief when they saw how she summoned two glowing knives unto her hand, seemingly using magic, and begin counterattacking the valkyries, warping before dispatching them with fluid and precise attacks, summoning more knives behind her and launching them towards the remaining Valkyries, effectively destroying them.
"She is quite skilled for a so called commoner..." Miss Longueville said.
They then see the Girl approach the cowering Guiche brandishing her knife before lifting him up with one hand, displaying a surprising amount of strength, and then proceeding to poke her knife to the nobles neck causing blood to flow through the small wound.
They were worried that the girl might actually kill him, before Sighing in relief when they saw Miss Valliere call out and approach the girl alongside one of the academy maids.
The girl let go of Guiche, causing him to fall on his behind before turning to miss Valliere and the maid and waving at them. the crystal ball stopped projecting.
"It seems your assumption might be true after all Mister Colbert." Osmond said.
"Still...A void mage after 6000 years, the opportunities for study this would ope-"
"I would like that the both of you to keep this information a secret." Osmond interrupted.
"Why sir? If i may ask." Asked Longueville.
"To keep miss Valliere save. many nobles will jump at the chance to acquire her powers to use for their advantage, be it to gain power or position, and so that if we are wrong about this, she would not be executed for heresy."
Colbert and Longueville nodded. Osmond then continue, "If it is possible i would like to inform Miss valliere of this development myself, So, Professor Colbert, if you can, please bring Miss valliere and her familiar here tommorow afternoon." He said.
"Understood sir." Colbert nodded in affirmation.
"I will also keep this a secret." Said Longueville.
Osmond nodded at them with a small smile.
It seems that interesting times are ahead.
After the Duel: at Louise's room.
After the duel at the Vestri court, Louise, Chara, And Siesta all went to Louise's room to talk. relief can be seen on both Siesta's and Louise's face, Siesta because she won't be fired and or be killed, and Louise because her familiar and friend didn't get hurt.
When they arrived at Louise's room, Siesta finally broke the silence, "Chara that was amazing! How were you able to do that?" She asked.
Chara shrugged, "Magic remember?" As if to remind her she summoned another knife and made it float above her hand, "And also, my mother was the Captain of the Royal Guard from where i came from, she always teaches me how to properly use my magic in combat." She explained.
"Oh, right you did mention that..." Louise said, "That explains how you fight so well, it looked liked those golems were nothing to you!"
"Meh, i'm used to dodging faster attacks." she shrugged, then a look of realization appeared on her face, "Oh, right i forgot, Siesta, i promised you i would teach you some of my worlds magic right?" She asked.
Siesta visibly brightened at this, "Yes you did! Are we going to try it now?"
"Wait, you can teach her how to use your 'soul magic'?" Louise asked, "Can you teach me too?"
Chara is then reminded of Louise's inaptitude with her magic, the reason why she is dubbed 'Louise the Zero'
"Sure, here, hold my hand, we're gonna need somewhere secluded for this." She lends her hands to Louise and Siesta.
Louise grabbed her hand, while Siesta only looked at it in confusion, "What are you about to do?" She asked.
Chara smirked, "Grab my hand and i'll show you."
Siesta grabbed her hand, "Alright, here we go!"
Suddenly, it was like the world around them was spinning, all went black before they blinked and find themselves at a clearing of the forest surrounding the academy.
"W-what was that? why am i so dizzy?" Siesta asked while steadying herself.
"It's one of her abilities, Kind of like teleportation." Said Louise, "It still makes me dizzy for a while."
"I told you, you'll get used to it." Chara said nonchalantly, "Alright, now i'm going to try something my mother told me when teaching me how to manifest my soul." She closed her eyes and focused on the warm feeling of her soul, when she finds it, she wills it to appear.
Louise and Siesta looked in astonishment as a red light came out from Chara's chest, an outline of a heart can be seen in it. "See this light? This is my soul. the very culmination of my being." She explained.
"There are several colors when it comes to a human's soul, this colors determine the soul's trait*, as you can see the color of my soul is red, red signifies the Trait of determination."
"What other colors are there?" Louise asked.
"Well aside from red, there are: Green, Which is kindness, the kind of magic associated with this trait is Healing and Support magic. allowing the user to create barriers and heals wounds.
Cyan, which is Patience, This trait can form ropes or strings made out of their magic to bind their enemies, this ropes are able to stick on to the enemy and is able to cut through them like a sword if they move or if it's yanked. and under extremely rare circumstances, can slow down the time of people and objects around them.
Purple, which is Perseverance, this trait allows it's user to amplify their strength, fire a beam of energy made of their magic, or if the user is skilled enough, form a weapon made of their magic.
Blue which is Integrity, A person with this trait could spawn weapons to use in battle, similar to the Perseverance trait, but mastering the powers of this trait is the hardest.
There is also Yellow, which is Justice, This Trait has the ability to summon any ranged weapons that is suitable for the person like bows or a rifle or even projectiles which can be launched at the enemy, acting similarly like high-speed bullets.
Orange, which is Bravery, This trait can also allow the user to form a weapon using magic, and also spawn magic and throw it at their enemies as a blast, similar to a bomb."
Finishing her explanation she noticed the Looks of awe on Siesta's and Louise's face. Then Louise spoke up, "Wait, you haven't told us your traits powers."
"Hold on, i'm getting there." Chara said.
"Then there is Red, Which is, as i said, Determination, arguably the strongest soul trait there is, although users of this trait are very rare, aside from me, the only people i know that has a Determination trait is myself, And another person whose name should be forgotten." She said that last part with a hint of venom in her voice.
Both Louise and Siesta shared a concerned look at each other. "Chara...Are you alright?" Siesta asked softly.
"No, it's nothing, just a very bad memory." She answered.
"Anyway, the user of this trait has the abilties to Create weapons made of magic, They also have the ability of regeneration, meaning that any wound they got from battle can heal itself almost instantly. Even if the user is at the edge of death, they could return to battle with max health if they are determined enough. They could also imbue their body with magic, greatly enhancing their strength. for example," Chara lifted her hand and willed her magic to flow into it, causing her hand to glow a bright red.
"Here my hand is coated with my magic, if i were to punch a tree right now, i would be able to destroy it easily." She proceeds to punch a tree with her bare hands.
Louise expected the tree to remain standing, but to her shock, Chara's fist punched a straight hole through the tree.
"See?"
"That's amazing!" Siesta exclaimed, "And you say that we could learn to do this?!"
"Yep." Chara said simply, "Alright, i'm gonna try to manifest your soul, so we could see what kind of trait you have."
"Louise, come here." She beckoned Louise forward, "I'm gonna use my soul to try and usher yours to come out." She explained.
She then manifested the red light that represented her soul, she then held it closer to Louise's chest.
"Close your eyes and try to search for your soul, when you find it you should feel something like warmth spreading around your body, my own soul should be able to guide you." Chara said.
Louise closed her eyes and focused, she looked inside herself, after a few minutes, she almost stopped, when she suddenly felt a warm feeling similar to the warmth that came from Chara's soul in her chest.
"Chara! i think i can feel it!" Louise said excitedly.
"Alright, focus on that feeling, and imagine pushing it out of your chest."
Louise then willed the feeling forward and held her hand out, after that she opened her eyes and saw a light hovering on her hand, glowing a mix of bright purple and red, with a hint of magenta in the centre.
"Nice work, you sucessfully manifested your soul!" Chara said cheerfully. and then she looked at the light in Louise's hand.
"It seems to me that you have two soul traits, Perseverance and...Determination?!" Chara exclaimed in shock, having two soul traits is rare by itself, but to also having Determination as one of it is even more so.
"Wait, didn't you say that Determination is the strongest soul trait?" Siesta asked.
Louise is astonished, "Does this mean i can do the same things you do? sumoning my own weapons and all that?" She asked.
"Yes, and you having the same soul trait as mine will make it easier to train you." Chara said.
"Well Siesta, your turn." She beckoned Siesta forward.
"Remember what i said to Louise, close your eyes and search for your souls warmth, tell me once you find it." Chara said.
Siesta did the same thing Louise did, she closed her eyes and with the help of Chara's soul found a warm sensation in her chest, "i feel something..." She said.
"Alright, focus on that feeling, and try to imagine pushing it out of your chest."
She willed the warm feeling in her chest to appear in front of her, and with the help of Chara's soul, a bright green light mixed with cyan formed in her hands, "Is this my soul?" She asked.
"Yep, and...Wow really? what are the chances..." Chara slowly shook her head, "Looks like you also got two soul traits, which is...Patience and Kindness, that's actually pretty fitting for you." She said.
Siesta look at the bright light in her hand with astonishment, "This means that i can do 'soul magic' right?"
"Yep, actually..." Chara looked to both Louise and Siesta, "With the two of you having two soul traits, your magical capabilities should be stronger than average, especially you Louise, having Determination as one of your soul trait."
Louise then realized something, she has the -Arguably, according to Chara- strongest soul trait there is, that means when she masters it, no one will be able to call her a zero anymore!
"So how do we start?" She asked excitedly.
Chara let a small smile show on her face, "Alright, let's start with a basic spell called 'soul barrier'*, This is a defensive spell that can be used by all traits, so it should be easy for you two to handle."
"How does this barrier work?" Siesta asked.
"It works sorta like an invisible shield, it should be able to protect you from any damages for a limited time," Chara then gathered her souls magical energy and made it so it covered her entire body, causing it to give a faint crimson glow.
"See this small glow?" Both Siesta and Louise nodded, "Okay, Siesta, grab that pebble near your feet and throw it at me." She ordered.
Siesta did so, and then she throws the pebble straight at her head, only to watch as a small flash of light was emitted from the pebbles point of impact, before seeing the pebble bounce off Chara's head with the girl not showing any signs of pain.
Chara smirks, "As you can see, my barrier managed to protect me," Then her expression turns serious, "But this doesn't mean it will negate every damage that hits you, a strong enough attack can still break through it." She explained.
"Okay now follow my instructions, remember that the warm feeling your soul gave out in your chest? that is your souls magic, now imagine it spreading all over your body, and then picture that energy forming a layer above your skin."
Louise tried to do as she's told, she pictured her soul and willed it to spread, and forming a layer of energy on her skin, after a few more seconds, a faint magenta light begin to appear, spreading from her chest across her body.
"Is it working?" She asked.
Chara shrugged, "Well one way to find out." She then lifted a decent sized rock and throws it straight at Louise.
"Wait - Wait!" Louise Shielded her face with her arms, expecting the rocks impact to injure her, but to her surprise, she only felt a slight tap on her forearm.
"Well, looks like you did it, you successfully formed a barrier using soul magic." She congratulated her, then they both turned to siesta, "Siesta! did you do-"
Chara stopped mid sentence, because in front of them Siesta stood,and instead of having a the magic acting as another layer of protective skin, she was instead surrounded by a very bright dome like green barrier.
"Did i do it correctly? this seem different..." She asked confusedly.
"Siesta...How the heck did you...?"
"I did exactly what you said, but the light just keep expanding outward!" She said.
Chara then punched the dome barrier a few times to test it's strength, "This is very sturdy, and on your first try! Nice work." she said cheerfully.
Louise pouted a bit, "Oh come on! How come i only managed to get a small barrier while she gets that!"
"Well...I did say that the Kindness trait's primary ability is barrier making, maybe it's got something to do with that."
Suddenly the dome surrounding Siesta's body begin to flicker, With the maid herself swaying inside it, "I feel a bit lightheaded..."
"Whoa there!" Chara helped her steady herself, "Looked like you overexerted your self, i guess that's enough for today, where do you usually sleep at Siesta?"
"At the Servant's quarters..." She said before finnaly fainting.
"What's wrong with her?" Louise asked.
"Well, when you strain your souls magic too much, this sort of thing happens, when i trained back with mother this used to happen to me too, She just needs some rest and she'll be fine." Chara explained, "Alright, grab my hand cause we're gonna take a shortcut."
Louise groaned, "Can't we just walk normally...?" Even though she said this she still grabs her hand.
Chara chuckled, "Hehe, nope."
And then the familiar sight of the world begining to spin around them appeared before they suddenly fin themselves directly in front of the Servant's quarters door.
"Ugh..." Louise groaned out, "I think i'm going to go to my room ahead of you, i need some rest too..."
"Sure go ahead, i'll there." Louise then turned and went ahead to her room.
Chara turned back to the door and knocked on it. She waited a few second before an older brown haired maid opened the door.
"Oh my! Siesta! Young miss what happened to her?" The maid asked her.
"You don't need to worry about it, she just overexerted herself, she should be find with a little rest" Chara reassured the maid.
"Very well then, thank you for bringing her here miss...?"
"Chara, Chara Dreemurr."
"Alright Miss Dreemurr, thank you for bringing her here, i'll make sure she gets enough sleep."
With that Chara lend Siesta to the older maid, who then brought her inside and closed the door, Chara managed to faintly hear the maids voice before the door closed.
"Oh Siesta, you always push yourself too hard..."
Chara then turned around and decided to take another shortcut to Louise's room, When she got there she went inside, and found a small mattress instead of the hay pile she slept in yesterday, She smiled a little at this.
She turned and faced the sleeping face of Louise, "Thanks for the bed Louise." She whispered to her ears.
She then undressed her jacket and laid down on the mattress, "Hopefully there won't be anymore nightmares..."
She then closed her eyes and falls asleep.
A/N: Well That's done, Professor Colbert, Headmaster Osmond, and the Secretary Longueville learns of Louise's true affinity, Siesta and Louise manifested their souls and found their traits, and Chara finally gets a bed :D
*Imagine something like aura from RWBY, also if anyone asks why Chara still get's killed by Genocide frisk even though she has this ability, Frisk's attack deals 999999999 -something damage, i'm pretty sure that would break through any barrier.
Yes, you might have noticed that i used Glitchtale's -Which is created by the extremely talented Camila Cuevas -Interpretation of soul traits and their individual abilities, all credit on that goes to her.
