Dark Souls

The Two Rings of the Spirit Aafreda

Aafreda stops running with Alex, Aafreda senses that the flying creature is disappearing all of a sudden. Aafreda takes her hand off Alex and runs back to Achiel's place.

"Ahh that Aafreda!! Hey wait" cried Alex who is now chasing Aafreda

Aafreda opened her mouth wide after seeing what was happening in front of her, countless spirit rings were shining brightly on the surface of the ground. In the middle of the place he looked at Achiel who was still silent in his place. Aafreda wanted to approach him but Alex held Aafreda's arm.

"Don't, stay here. I'm going to get closer" Alex said

Alex stepped forward slowly, he felt there was a strange scent on Achiel's body but Alex did not know what the scent was, which he knew that this scent was not good according to him.

"Achiel, are you okay?"

Achiel glanced at Alex and stepped past him. He stood before Aafreda and stroked Aafreda's face gently.

"I told you not to come here"

"A...I'm worried about brother"

Achiel smiled and looked back, he saw a spirit ring that shone brightly above the ground.

"Choose a spirit ring that suits you"

"What?" Aafreda asked confused

"That luminous thing is a spirit ring, you choose the one that is suitable for your spirit" Achiel replied

So, he's the one who found all these spirit rings. What exactly has he done? Thought Aafreda

Meanwhile Alex had already heard Achiel's words and excitedly he gathered all the spirit rings on the ground. He carefully inspected the spirit ring that was suitable for his spirit.

Aafreda stepped forward and stared at all those brightly shining spirit rings. He did not know how he knew the spirit ring was suitable for his spirit, after all his plant spirit was useless at all. He was useless in this exam from the beginning.

I didn't do anything but I easily got the spirit ring. I don't know why I don't feel comfortable with this.

"I didn't choose any brother, after all you have all these spirit rings. I didn't even fight at all and run"

Hearing Aafreda's words, Alex was self-conscious. He threw back the spirit ring he had collected and walked up to the two brothers.

" True this is yours, we can't take it" Alex said

"This is for you, I don't need it. Do you want the other kids to get it?" Ask Achiel

Aafreda and Alex look at each other and they quickly search for a spirit ring suitable for their spirits.

True Achiel is my brother so automatically this spirit ring is mine, who wants to share it with others. Thought Aafreda

Since Achiel is his brother Aafreda and Aafreda is my friend then I still have the right to get the spirit ring. Think Alex

While the two of them were busy finding the spirit ring, Achiel patted the sword that was on his waist quietly. The Dark Soul sword like his was thirsty killing.

Aafreda stared at that spirit ring with various shapes and colors, she did not know which ring matched her spirit. How do I know that? Suddenly Aafreda remembered something her teacher had said.

A Year Ago

"Look in front of you Aafreda, that red ring is the basic level of the plant spirit. This ring has a rose symbol in front of it, if you get this ring it's good enough to increase the defense of your plant spirit even though not much"

"Besides it with a yellow ring, it has no emblem at all. This ring is enough to add knowledge about the plant"

"The third ring with green color, has a jasmine flower symbol. This is a useful ring for healing"

"Fourth is a blue colored ring with an orchid flower emblem, this is a very useful ring to increase the power of spirit users in terms of speed"

"Last ring with a dark purple aura, has a lavender emblem. This is a ring that can make your opponent hypnotically affected, very useful for fighting in many opponents. Aafreda the more concentrated the purple color in the ring, the more concentrated the power they have, the more, if you find a ring that doesn't have a crest like I said never take that ring because it'll kill yourself later"

End

Right I should look for the spirit ring with all five symbols and colors. Thought Aafreda

Aafreda walked and traced every spirit ring that was on the ground. While Alex has already found a spirit ring that suits him, he only needs one. He did not want to be too greedy with all these spirit rings.

Aafreda was still struggling to find a spirit ring suitable for her, suddenly a ring shone brightly near her. The green-colored light twitched, Aafreda took the ring and looked at her seriously.

Coat of arms of jasmine flowers with green color, a ring that is useful for healing. This is what I need.

Aafreda again approached the two men but another spirit ring shone brightly and flew in front of Aafreda. Aafreda was very surprised, she did not know if the spirit ring could float like this.

Aafreda looked at the ring and found an emblem of three arrows in deep purple. Aafreda knew that this ring was a tool spirit ring, and she had no ability in spirit tools at all.

Aafreda walked past the ring but the ring floated back in front of Aafreda, a sight both men were sure to see. They also felt strange with the spirit ring that could suddenly float.

Does this ring want me to take it? But I don't have the ability in spirit tools. But....Master once gave me his arrow tool, since then I have never taken it out at all.

Aafreda decided to take the spirit ring and in an instant the spirit ring disappeared and entered Aafreda's body. Aafreda felt a strange sensation with her body, for some reason she felt very light.

Aafreda again approached Achiel and Alex, smiling happily. He had already obtained two spirit rings without any effort though.

The three of them walked out of the forest, how shocked Aafreda was when she saw that the students had been carried away by a stretcher and were being treated. She doesn't know what's going on right now?

"Ahhh you're back! Thank goodness, I thought you were dead" cried Miss Bella

"Is this Miss Bella?" Ask Alex

"You don't know if the test has been canceled, the horrible creature has returned and is trying to kill us all. Therefore now many of the students who were injured fortunately no one died. But... How come you're not hurt in the least?" Ask Miss Bella confused

"Miss Bella we don't know if the exam has been canceled but...we get the spirit ring, did we pass the exam?" Ask Aafreda

"Baa..How cana?!!?" Shouted Miss Bella who was heard by everyone in the place
