Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

"That's… not a bad theory, I guess," Eleonora said. "Although, I thought the afterlife was… fake. I don't know why I think that though, even when I was reborn."

"I believe its real. Not because I was reincarnated, but because my system said Souls exist and leave a body after they die. I dont think afterlife exists in the same way as heaven and hell do as most people believe, but just as a stationary place where the souls are kept," Ning said.

"Hmm, if what you say happens to be correct, then it would make sense why we were born in different times despite being dead around the same," Elenora said. "So… where do you think the souls go after death?"

"I… let me look it up," Ning said.

"You can look up anything? Don't tell me you have a search engine in there," Eleonora asked with a chuckle.

"Pretty much," Ning said while focusing on the task at hand.

"Wait, seriously? Damn, my system is a joke by comparison then," Eleonora said.

"It can help me find anything aside from information on Energies itself. For example, I can't look up the types of different Energies, or best sources of said energy."

"On that note, soul is a form of energy too. So, the system has nothing on our question," Ning thought and closed the interface.

"Oh, that's disappointing," Eleonora said.

"Yeah, so… uh, are you not leaving?" Ning asked.

"You want me to leave?" Eleonora asked inquisitively.

"I mean, is there something else you want to talk about?" Ning asked.

"Of course! I finally met a person from earth. I want to talk all night long. Tell me, what year you were born in?" Eleonora asked questions after questions.

Ning smiled as the nostalgia of it all got to him too. He asked her some questions too.

The talked for a few hours, telling each other their depressing daily lives, and soon that talk came to an end too.

Then Eleonora started asking about his time on Kumia. Ning laughed and started the tale of his journey from when he met Freya.

He talked about Klavis, and how he foolishly acted as a god. Eleonora laughed hard when she heard how he nearly screwed it all up by not keeping his emotions in check.

Ning found it rude of her to laugh like that, but soon he was laughing at himself too.

He talked about his time in the Scattered Isles and how he became a physician. Then he talked about going to Vilmore, which truly surprised her.

"Wait, there is a planet that you can go to through the northern continent? I would like to visit there someday," Eleonora said.

"Yeah… but, if you go there you can't come back," Ning said. "Its a one way trip mostly."

"Aw, that sucks," she said with a disappointed face. "I don't want to leave my family. Tell me more."

Ning smiled and continued talking about his travels through the southern continent. He told her the beauty, the weirdness and everything in between in the southern continent.

"Wait, my brother was the first person you met in the Central continent?" Eleonora asked.

"Uh… technically not, but you wouldn't be wrong to say that," Ning said. "Now it's your turn, tell me about your life."

Eleonora described her life as well. Compared to Ning's it was simple and boring.

Ever since she was born, she had been different. It took her some time to get accustomed to the language, and once she was, all she did was try and learn stuff from the library to better her knowledge.

The only problem was, her parents were relatively poor at the time, so she couldn't really afford a lot of stuffs. It was only after she started making artifacts and secretly selling it through her father's merchant business did they grow.

Her family was given a noble title from the Emperor and the rest was history. Once the family grew to a sufficient level, they no longer needed her help to grow, and she could finally focus on making stuff for her own.

She started creating new designs and earned points. She got a decent cultivation method from the system and other handy tools.

Unfortunately, it was all for herself and couldn't give it to her brother. If she could, he would probably have a lot higher cultivation base by now.

"I see. I'm quite surprised you got the gold star so fast," Ning said.

"Yeah, my teaching methods were just… different, and it seemed it worked a lot better for the students. So they kept joining more and more," Eleonora said as she shook her head..

"Sigh, anyway. I will be leaving now."

She touched the base plate on the ground and the rods that were flying around them stopped projecting the white film of barrier. They came together and fell onto the plate, which then closed to form the oval artifact once again.

She got up to grab the artifact when suddenly a divine sense entered the room and washed over the two of them.

"Shit!" the two of them said in unison. Suddenly, they could hear a storm brewing outside as the loud footsteps got closer.

"Sigh, this is going to be a problem," Eleonora said.

The door slammed open as the lock on it flew everywhere. "Sister Ely, did this guy force you to stay here all night? Tell me what he did; I will kill him," Bradley shouted loudly.

"Go back brother Bradley, we were just talking," Eleonora said.

"Talking about what? Why was there a formation up such that my divine sense couldn't even enter?" Bradley asked.

"Because it was a secret talk," Eleonora said.

"Secret? With this Silver? That's a lie. From what I can see, you two are having an affair, aren't you?" Bradley loudly asked.

"Yes," Ning said without hesitation.

Eleonora looked back shocked, but then she heard his voice in her head. "Don't worry, I will make sure he leaves you alone."

"You…" Bradley started getting angry. "I demand a duel right now."
