Magic's Return: I Can See The Spirits

Chapter 9 Astra's Decision.



Vaan tightly closed his eyes as he prepared his mind for more fragments of memories that were about to be flooded into his brain.

'I am Christopher! I am from Earth! I am 31 years old! I am Christopher! I am from...'

He continued to chant these sentences in his mind, the white light continued to heal his body, his body was practically bathing in comfort, it was so relaxing that Vaan almost lost control over his body and was about to sleep.

However, he quickly bit his lips to keep himself conscious.

He wouldn't fall for it.

Soon, his body got used to this comforting feeling, no, something was wrong. There was no way this sense of comfort would suddenly feel weak just because his body got used to it.

Vaan opened his eyes and noticed that the intensity of the white light had decreased a lot.

The white-robed men sitting in front of him opened their eyes, then, they glanced at Astra and,

"Young Master Vaan should be perfectly alright now."

'Huh?'

Vaan frowned in confusion.

It was over?

But the fragments of memories that he was so scared about never appeared? Only a part of them appeared, but he still does not recall everything. So how did it end? Did the magic fail? No, the expressions the 3 white-robed men were making weren't of people who had failed and were trying to con their clients.

"Vaan, how do you feel?"

Astra questioned.

"I… I do not…

I only recall a few things, I think the magic stopped midway." Vaan answered honestly.

"That is incorrect, Young Master Vaan. If the magic had stopped midway as you said, your body wouldn't have healed completely either. The Magic related to memory and the mind can be complicated.

If we flood your mind with all the memories together, it might harm you. You will automatically recall everything in parts after some time. I recommend you read books and broaden your horizons. Reading is a good way to train your brain, the stronger your brain is, the smoother the process of memory recovery will be."

One of the white robbed men spoke.

"Then… does that mean I will get to keep my current personality if I read and train my brain?" Vaan questioned after a moment of hesitation.

He wanted to figure things out on his own, however, right now, the stakes were too high. A chance to stay with his mother in a completely new world, he couldn't take any risks.

"That is difficult, Young Master Vaan."

The white robbed man, however, didn't have a clear answer.

"The memory you want you recover is the memories of the time you spent in the past 20 years, the personality you created in all those years would definitely be more powerful than your current personality that has only been created for at most a day."

"So it all depends on the amount of memory I have in my mind, the higher one wins?"

"Well, that's a crude way to put it. There are some other theories and things to consider but in the main essence, you are not wrong."

The white robbed man nodded.

Vaan smiled inwardly.

Heh, to think he would be this lucky.

This body was only 20 years old, he, on the other hand, had 31 years of memory in his mind, his personality, it should be stronger than the 20-year-old personality.

ραΠdαsΝοvel Vaan then glanced at his reflection in the nearby mirror, then, he looked into his golden eyes and,

'I do not know how I got into your body, but,

I will be taking over your life now.

I apologize, but you can only blame yourself for getting entangled with a selfish jerk.'

Vaan's decision was now stronger than ever.

"Of course, if you do train and strengthen your brain to a certain extent, there is still a decent chance that you will get to keep a part of your current personality."

The white-haired man who thought the Vaan was disappointed because of the lost expression that had appeared on his face, replied.

"I understand. Thank you for your help, Sir Healer."

Vaan nodded.

Hearing those words, the 3 Healers seemed quite surprised. Soon, however, their expressions returned to normal. They all nodded, then, they left the room after saying their goodbyes to Astra.

"Mother."

Vaan called out the moment the healers left the room.

"We have a library in our Mansion, correct? I want to read more books."

"You seem pretty determined."

"I promised you, didn't I? I will not change even after I get my memories back. You are now stuck with me, mother."

Astra chuckled as she patted Vaan's head.

She didn't know if what she was doing was correct or not.

Her son lost all his memories and now had a completely different personality than before. It wasn't wrong to say that the child in front of her was not her son but someone else. As a mother, she should be wishing for her son to regain his previous personality, the personality of her own, actual son.

However, these past few hours that she had spent with her son… honestly, these past few hours had filled her heart with so much warmth that she couldn't even describe it.

The look in Vaan's eyes as he glanced at her. That love and longing in his eyes, it was something she had never seen in Vaan's eyes before.

Honestly, it didn't feel like Vaan was a child who had lost his memories and had a completely blank mind, it felt like Vaan's new personality was someone else, a someone who was filled with nothing but love and longing for her and not only that, she felt a strange bond with this 'someone else', a bond that shouldn't have been formed in mere few hours.

It was as if… she had been raising this child for ages but they somehow got separated from each other.

Astra didn't know what to do,

It was a battle between heart and brain.

But after long consideration, her heart won,

"There is a better way to strengthen your brain and keep your personality."
