The mysterious guy and his friends. Part 2

Is he an unknown Hybrid class? He looks like an Arch Wizard and a Jester, or something else. He looks scary but he doesn't look like a bad guy, just plain scary. Even Vivi is hiding on my back. Edith says,

"Stop playing with our foo- I mean our little friends here"

I don't know if she's joking or not because I recently heard a rumor about the cannibalism cult or something like that around Bulark's Kingdom, but if she is joking, that's still scary. Shive says,

"They're just messing with you both, don't worry about it"

Shive, even though she seems like she hates me and Vivi, she's very understanding. I wish her personality is like Marie. A few minutes later when we're talking with each other, a woman is greetings us from the distance with silver hair and bright green eyes, and a gorgeous smile. I took my words back. This woman is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my whole life, way more beautiful than Edith. With her harp on her hands and the beautiful voice she has, it melts my heart. Then Vivi jumped and approached her and says,

"Excuse me, are those spirits yours?! This is the first time I see hundreds of spirits on someone's body, and these are not any normal spirits, these all are high spirits! NO! Some of them are the Elders! Ohh I'm sorry for being rude. My name is Leyhem, Viviette Leyhem and that's Belliot, Val Belliot."

Vivi's eyes are glimmering with beams of excitement. The Bard replies,

"Oh my, what a lovely surprise to hear that from you, so are you a half-elf? Let me introduce myself, my name is Secra, and yes these Spirits are mine."

I can't see Spirits, only Elves, Beast Kin, and those who have spirit on their body. If what's Vivi says was right. Again, I don't know why these people still a Tier 1 class, Are they lying about it? Are they hiding from someone? When I'm questioning myself about it, I noticed that Shive staring at me for quite a long time. Then she whispers in my ear and says,

"We're not lying nor hiding from someone, we are who we are."

Then she smiles at me. How did she know what I'm thinking!! Who is she?! Who are these people?! Then Vivi taps my shoulder and asked me what's wrong. I can't tell her here, maybe later when we're alone. She is still waiting for my answer, and I said to her that it's nothing. We're on our way back to Gyne to meet with Zee, I'm still thinking about it. But looking at them and Vivi is having fun and laughing with them, is not a bad thing they didn't seem like bad people. As Shive said, they are who they are. Again, Shive is staring at me, like she knows what I'm thinking. Maybe I'm just overthinking about it, Vivi did the same thing when I was curious about her age, maybe this is not their first time someone questioning who they are, and I made the same expression with those who question them. When we arrived at Gyne, Marie greet us and took the carts, and left. I think Marie knew who these people are. Maybe I'll ask Marie a little about them. Then we go upstairs, and there he is, yawning. I think he fell asleep and just woke up, he just noticed that we're here and he waves at us. As he promised, he gave us Gold, but instead of giving us 1 Gold, he gave us 2 Gold, He said 1 Gold but for each of us. We thanked him and then he goes back to his table with his friends. They look like the best party in Gyne, like people you can depend on. Maybe I'll ask them for advice if I found any problem.

We said goodbye to them and now Vivi and I are going to find the inn. When we're walking downstairs, Marie standing there with my sword, also my money, and Vivi's money, when I asked Marie how did she has our belongings, she told us to look upstairs. Up there we see Zee with his smile and waving at us, we thank him again and he just keeps smiling at us. When we about to leave Gyne, Edith shout to us, and everyone is there are looking at her,

"Val, Vivi. Come back here tonight for the party. As we promised, you're part of the guild now. Don't miss it, we're going to wait for you both! See you later!"

Everyone in Gyne screaming with joy and happiness, and welcomed us, this is the best feeling so far. One thing for sure, I made the right choice to come here. Vivi and I arrived at the inn when we're waiting for the innkeeper. I ask Vivi,

"Hey Vivi"

She replies,

"Yes, what is it, Val?"

I say,

"Since we're new here, do you want to party up with me?"

She replies,

"I would love to, Val."

She smiled. I say,

"Great! Let's work together to the top!"

She nods and smiles.

After we rent a room, we go our separate ways and I go to my room. It's been a long day, I jump on the bed and I fell asleep instantly. Someone is knocking on the door, I heard Vivi's voice. Oh, it must be time for us to go to Gyne. I opened the door and let Vivi in. I say,

"Is it time to go to Gyne?"

Vivi replies,

"Yeah, shall we get going?"

I nod and we go to Gyne.

As we arrived at Gyne, we see Secra is alone sitting on the rock at the riverside in front of Gyne. She is playing her Harp and singing in an unknown language, I asked Vivi if she knows what language is that, but she doesn't know either. Then Secra noticed that we're here, and told us to come. Secra says,

"Were you listening to the melody I played?"

Vivi says,

"Yeah, it's beautiful. It's so calming and relaxing".

Secra replies,

"Oh my, thank you."

I ask,

"Miss Secra, what language was that? We never heard that language before."

She replies,

"Oh, that's Spirit's language. I played every night for them, they loved it. You both want to listen some more?"

Vivi and I nod, and Secra start to play the melody. Vivi is starting to cry, I'm surprised and asked Vivi what's wrong. She said, all the Spirits are dancing, and more Spirits are coming from all directions. I don't know what spirit looks like, but looking at Vivi's expression, I'm sure it's the most beautiful thing in the world for her. Although I can't see them, the melody Secra is playing makes me feel calm, happy, and sad at the same time. We are listening for a while, suddenly Zee, Den, Edith, Vex, and Shive approached us, bringing food and drinks and sit around Secra. Edith asks,

"Enjoying so much?"

Vivi is still crying and smiling at the same time. I reply,

"Yeah, this is the most beautiful and peaceful melody we have ever heard. Vivi said the Spirits are dancing and coming from all directions, I wish I can see Spirits and see what Vivi sees."

Edith smile and says,

"Sure thing, I'll cast a spell on you so you can see the spirits."

Before I can answer, suddenly a bright light appears. A spirit, I can see them!! They're so small but I can see their faces, smiling and laughing, hundreds of them with hundreds of different colors, flying and circling Secra. My tears are running on their own, my lips smiling on their own, I feel so calm. So this is what Vivi saw, no wonder she's so excited back then when we saw Secra for the first time. We are enjoying the night, Zee and Edith talking and laughing, Shive staring at the sky, Vex on top of the tree dancing and singing to Secra's song, Den is eating and drinking a beer while watching Secra. A few hours have passed, the sun is almost up, for some reason we're not tired or sleepy. Edith is sleeping on Zee's lap, Vex went to the market. Den and Shive are going to the training ground. Vivi fell asleep beside Secra, and Secra still playing with her Harp, smiling at me. Secra asks,

"Val, do you like the village so far?"

I reply,

"Very much, no wonder people are coming here. The rumor about Crude village is no lie, I love it so much."

Secra smile and says,

"Glad to hear that, anyway Val…"

Suddenly her expression a little bit more serious and continue,

"Can you keep it a secret from anyone about us? I know you have so many questions. We just want to enjoy our moments right now. You both are adventurers now. Your path will become hard and difficult. But, if you need our help, you can ask us anytime and we would like to help you out with that, you both are not a stranger to us. So remember that."

I nod and for some reason, I understand what she meant, I promise her that I'll keep it a secret from anyone. She smiled and went to the market to help the villager. I woke Vivi up and we are planning to go back to the inn, so we said goodbye to Zee. He wants to stay there for a moment with Edith. As soon as we arrived at the inn, my body became heavy and tired, so after I said goodbye to Vivi, I go to my room and go to sleep.
