Ouroboros's Soul

Alexis continued to ride her bike, not knowing that behind her there were monsters chasing her, they followed her home.

"Damn it!"- Etham

He held out his hand and the symbol glowed on the back of his hand.

Before the monsters were about to reach Alexis, suddenly an illusion of a black wolf with some blue fire jumped out and grabbed the monsters in one shot.

Etham was shocked at what just happened, was it a soul tarot?

But it seemed that the owner of the tarot soul did not understand what had just happened, it made him feel very strange. Is that girl "blind" or what?

The girl turned around and Etham jumped up and stood watching from above.

Alexis felt like someone was following her just now, maybe it was her imagination.

"Wiro?"- Alexis

The little puppy appeared in front of her. She saw that there was a black stain on the corner of its mouth.

"Did you just go eat something?" - Alexis

"Just some prey for me to enjoy. Normally we tarot souls are fed when given energy by our master, I could drain energy from you but I don't want to"- Wiro

"Why?" - Alexis

"Because it's not necessary, moreover, I don't like it" - Wiro

After entering the house, Alexis stood under the shower to feel comfortable as warm water sprayed on her. After taking a bath, Alexis' spirit became completely alert. She saw Wiro lying on the bed sleeping very soundly.

But Alexis still felt like someone was watching her, which made her a little uncomfortable.

Etham sat in the tree opposite her house, luckily the leaves here hid him so he was not detected by the other girl. The phone in his pocket vibrated, Etham took it out to answer.

"What happened? Fita said you found the "Tree of Life" but it's not a "tree" but a "person"? And monsters are attacking her?!"- Ryu

"Yeah that's true but I don't think we should worry too much. Because that girl is a tarot soul, that thing protected her from monsters" - Etham

"What? Does she have a deck of tarot cards? So what's there to worry about?" - Ryu

"The problem here is...that girl doesn't seem to be able to see. When they chased her, she didn't sense the danger" - Etham

"...Meet me at the same place"- Ryu

Etham put the phone away to continue observing. As soon as he raised his head, in front of him was the wolf Wiro, which had transformed into the huge form of a wolf.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?" - Wiro

"Wait a minute, buddy, let's talk calmly, okay?" - Etham

"Talking? Are you kidding me? You're watching me and that girl"- Wiro

"Wait, it's just a misunderstanding!"- Etham

"As if I trust you!"- Wiro

The wolf rushed forward, Etham threw his body back to avoid it and landed on the ground, he immediately ran away from there. Not letting his prey escape, Wiro immediately chased him from behind.

The wolf's speed was so fast that it was almost chasing him.

"There is no other way, I have to use him" - Etham

Taking it out of his pocket, it was a rather bulky cloth bag and inside was a deck of cards with a back shaped like a symbol of light.

"Ringan!"- Etham

A flash of light knocked Wiro back, it was a large beam of light similar to a light bulb, a voice rang out.

"A tarot soul? Besides, can it still show its true form?" - Ringan

"That thing was just created, so it's still very strong" - Etham

"So it's a wild soul tarot" - Ringan

"Don't look down on me there, I can kill you with these teeth" - Wiro

"Yeah, dude. You better not act so thoughtlessly. We're just observing, we're not doing anything" - Ringan

"See? Even my soul tarot says so. Anyway, we swear to do no harm to your master. But we have an invitation for both you and your master" - Etham

"Isn't that too early?" - Ringan

"I think that's the best way to make her aware of the situation" - Etham

Ringan said nothing but a sigh came from him.

Wiro returned home and saw Alexis sitting at the desk, her hands continuously typing on the keyboard.

"Are you writing a novel?" - Wiro

"Yeah, you know too?" - Alexis

"I've been by your side long enough to know what your life is like, but I don't necessarily know your life completely" - Wiro

"I'm sorry for leaving you alone for so long..."- Alexis

"I don't need your apology...there is someone following us. And he invite us"- Wiro

"What?!"- Alexis

In the afternoon, Alexis walked out of the house to prepare for the cat cafe. She looked out at the street from left to right. It seems everything is normal.

Indeed, since yesterday, Alexis was a little afraid if she accidentally ended up in that world again. Just the thought of being chased by monsters made her shiver.

"There's no need to worry about that. You already have me by your side" - Wiro

The puppy perched on her head patting its owner's head with his paw. Alexis took a deep breath, she took one step out of the house,

Nothing happened.

It's true that nothing happened, so she feels more secure.

Go to the cafe where she meets the person who read her tarot cards. Opening the door, the scent of cat fur and coffee rose, calming her spirit.

"I want to order a drink, a cup of cocoa" - Alexis

"There will be right here, so do you want to give your puppy an energy kick?"

Alexis was surprised, she raised her head and saw the friendly smile of the staff.

"How..."- Alexis

"She is a witch, not only that, the staff in the shop are also witches" - Wiro

"?!"- Alexis

"Don't worry, we didn't do anything to you. Go to the second floor, there's someone waiting for you."

Alexis was a bit surprised, she took the drink and a blue quartz stone, which Wiro happily accepted and chewed happily.

"Can you eat that? What does it taste like?" - Alexis was surprised

"It tastes like blueberry. But you can't taste that" - Wiro

Alexis grabbed her drink and went upstairs, there were three cats lounging on the steps, as she passed by they didn't seem to care at all.

Arriving at the room on the second floor, Alexis grabbed the door handle and opened it slightly when she seemed to feel energy sources of different colors leaking out from behind the door.

She looked inside and saw a group of four people sitting together, seemingly not paying attention to the person entering. So she quietly walked inside without making any noise, looking for a place to sit when she saw in that group of people sitting and watching Lyra read tarot cards.

Lyra was very happy when she saw Alexis.

"Alexis!"- Lyra

The people around immediately turned their eyes towards her, startling Alexis. Among them was the young man who teased Wiro, so the wolf cub growled at him.

"Good afternoon Lyra" - Alexis smiled wryly

"Please sit down with us. Everyone, it's Alexis Wood, my friend I just met yesterday" - Lyra

Alexis was a bit confused, because she had never interacted with many strangers before. Normally it's hard to get to know someone, but now suddenly there are so many people here, making her a bit nervous.

"Lyra, you never told me there would be a new friend of yours coming here."

A deep female voice rang out. It was a girl with shoulder-length black hair and pearly black eyes. That girl had a certain aura that made Alexis feel attracted.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. I should have asked Yahkam about this" - Lyra

"It's best that you don't abuse the deck too much, it won't be good."

"You don't need to worry about that, brother Ryu. Yahkam will not harm me, because I am the one who owns him" - Lyra

"Yahkam?"- Lyra

"That's her soul tarot. Just like yours" - Ryu

The wolf cub jumped from Alexis's head to the ground. He sat proudly like a wolf.

"I am her tarot soul, my me is Wiro"- Wiro

"A puppy?"- Ryu

"Actually I am a wolf" - Wiro

"No matter how you look at it, you look more like a puppy" - Etham

"I'll bite you now!"- Wiro

Alexis just had time to pick up Wiro and place him on her lap to comfort the wolf cub.

"Hm, you should look at yourself. You are currently in your immature form, how can you harm me" - Etham

"That's enough, Etham. We came here to talk, luckily the person we need to talk to is already here. I'm really sorry, for Etham's actions, he often has a hobby of bullying newbies I hope you understand" - Ryu

"It's okay. Anyway, I'm sorry for not being able to manage my soul tarot"- Alexis

"Actually, you don't need to control your tarot souls too tightly. They are all free souls, no one can stop them, unless in some cases they are too naughty."

The girl sitting next to Ryu explained to Alexis, her body was plump with a cute oval face, radiating quite a positive energy.

"I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Ryu Fira. Just call me Brother Ryu. The person next to me is Fita Nerai, my girlfriend" - Ryu

"Hello" - Fita

"And this is..."- Ryu

"Etham Bright, that's all you need to know" - Etham

"And of course we have "them" like you"- Ryu

The other three took a cloth bag and placed it on the ground, then an illusion appeared from inside those bags. A beautiful fairy with glass wings, a middle-aged gentleman dressed like an Englishman, and a young man dressed like a sage.

Lyra also collected her deck of cards when an illusion from the tarot deck appeared, which was a young man wearing a crow's hat dressed like an Egyptian.

They all looked at Alexis and Wiro and bowed politely.

"Woah..." - Alexis
