The Moonlight Swordsman

Aizel turned around to see a tiny girl about 4 feet tall with a flat chest dressed in a pink frock.

Her pink hair cascaded down her back, complemented by the rosy cheeks that sat atop a small, pointed nose, and big pink eyes that shone brightly with intelligence.

"Loli" was the first thought that came to Aizel.

"Are you going to stare at me like an idiot or kiss my feet and praise me?" the loli joked.

"First, tell me how you got into my apartment, kid." The air around Loli began to thicken, just as Aizel had asked.

"Who are you calling a kid? If it hadn't been for the vow I made a long time ago, I would have killed you by now." Aizel could easily sense that the loli was enraged and could clearly feel that, if she wished, she could kill him with a mere thought.

"I'll simply share a few things with you that are within your current capacity to understand. Is that clear?" Aizel nodded without thinking as the loli spoke.

"My name is Alora; and who am I? You do not deserve to know at this time. You could formerly move between the worlds while sleeping thanks to my power." Alora spoke as Aizel understood the gravity of the situation.

"Why only now, and why am I assisting you? You will understand when the time comes."

"I will live in your apartment starting today, while you can now travel the world with just a thought in your mind," Alora spoke proudly.

"Wow, that was a lot to take in, so may I ask you a question first?" Aizel inquired clearly that was a lot of information to take, and Alora responded with a nod.

"When and where did you begin using your power until now?" Evidently having never seen her before, Aizel inquired.

"The first time at the lake because I assumed you were ready, and from where?" Alora pointed to his head.

"From inside my head?" Aizel inquired as Alora nodded once more.

"When the time comes, you'll know everything; for now, you've got a lot to learn, and I'm sure someone is waiting for you on the other side," Aizel remembered his conversation with Daisy as Alora winked at him.

"OK, but first let me sleep; I'll go there tomorrow after speaking with Doctor Shelly." As he lay down on his bed to sleep, Aizle waved his hand. He didn't know how to respond in that situation, there were all the strange things happening around him, first travel between the fantasy world where he can use mana, they were magic and a monster now a loli who suddenly appeared saying that she will live with him.

He knows he didn't say no because he also wanted to know all the secrets about him and he didn't have the power to kick her out of the apartment.

"This kid is exactly like her," Alora grumbled to herself as she walked down the hall to turn on the television.

Aizel slept happily until morning when Alora abruptly kicked him out of bed.

"Oi.oi.oi.oi...wake up and make me breakfast," Alora spoke as Aizel sat down to comprehend what had just happened.

"You know you could have woken me up normally," Aizel grumbled as he began walking towards the bathroom to take a bath.

When he returned from the bath, he was dressed in a sports tee and black trousers and proceeded into the kitchen to cook breakfast.

"What should I tell Dr. Shelly—that I'm leaving town to travel or something?" While preparing eggs and sandwiches, Aizel mulls over the best excuse he can think of for Dr. Shelly.

"Can you tell me about the magic core, Alora?" Aizel inquired as he served Alora breakfast while sitting next to her to eat his own.

"Are you not going to learn something about that world today?" Alora inquired.

"Yeah, but you'd know more and could explain things to me in a better way," Aizel responded, knowing that the loli in front of him was far more powerful than he could have imagined.

"My work is done; now it is up to you; I will not assist you in any manner. There is a lot of risk in that." While eating the sandwiches, Alora said.

"What risk?"

"That is not the appropriate moment for you to know; I will tell you everything when the time comes. For the time being, take it slowly and try to enjoy your life more." Alora replied.

Aizel nodded, apparently unable to do anything else; clearly, Alora knows a lot about him and the world, but getting answers from her will be difficult.

"Well, I guess I should simply take it slowly and attempt to learn about the magic core and more about that world first." While eating his breakfast and searching for his cell phone, Aizel thought.

Aizel texted Dr. Shelly a lengthy message in which he stated that he was OK and that he had thought about the trip she mentioned and informed her that he would be leaving town for a few days.

"So I guess I should go back. Alisha also told me that she would arrive in the morning to help me sell the corpses."

Aizel returned to his room, carrying a cigarette box with him, and lying down on his bed.

As Alora indicated, he envisioned that world, and images came to him as though floating in his head; these were all the places he had spent his time in the other world.

"Now that's a cool feature; it means I can teleport to wherever I choose from these images." While imagining his inn room, Aizel thought.

And with that, Aizel was teleported back to his inn room, as Alora spoke again while glancing towards his room.

"The idiot had no idea he was using his own magic."

"So, now that he's gone and I'm finally free, what should I do? Should I try the local foods?" While licking her lips, Alora thought.

"Well then, let's go."
