Chapter 4 - A familiar face

After the system started generating my Name of Echo I havent heard the systems voice since then

Why arent they saying my Name of Echo?

Is there a glitch in the system?

It did say analyzing my achievements but I dont have any achievements besides meeting a reverent

What action of mine did the system acknowledge?

Was it the meeting of a reverent?

Thats impossible. In my past life i've never achieved something from meeting a reverent

Though I've killed every reverents I met due to mathilda's murderer being a powerful reverent

Mathilda's death made me hate and resent every reverents to this day.

Even just few moments ago I wished to kill the police officer but it was obvious i had no power to do so

Anyways how did I even outpace a reverent in my current age?

In my past life I only awakened a year after my mothers death

maybe I awakened sooner than that due to my knowledge of this vast world

But I didnt feel the power surge inside me of an awakening, maybe I awakened after I passed out

Maybe I didnt awaken at all and I ran away by pure luck

But knowing my luck I wouldnt be lucky enough to do so

Well I dont care about any of these at all

Now that my mother is dead and I cant access my own home I need to survive in the streets

Or I can sell one of my kidneys, maybe that will do

But that can lead my body into a state that wont allow me to become a reverent

I'll just run until i find somewhere to stay, all these thinking is just making me more tired

Running—gasps of breath

I cant find anywhere to stay, I just keep on running and running, I feel so tired.

I just want to sleep, but I cant rest, I need to find some place

A place I can call home temporarily.

As I kept running my vision started to blur and all I heard was ringing in my ear

My pace started to slow down as time goes by

And suddenly the world collapsed before my eyes

Am I going insane?

Infront of me I see fragments of my memories, Is this a dream?

And suddenly all the fragments started to shatter as I finally woke up

My surroundings were a room of someone elses

I saw myself resting on another persons lap, it felt warm and familiar

I tried to look at the persons face but I was too tired and I passed out yet again

As time passes by I heard laughter, and alot more emotions near me

I suddenly wake up and I am still resting on a familiar lap, it seems the person that im resting on fell asleep.

I sit up and rub my eyes

I gaze upon the beautiful girl besides me

She seemed like a familiar face.

A face I knew by heart. A face I havent seen in decades

My eyes start tearing up.

Mathilda..?

I start reminiscing about the memories of her still being alive and well in my hands

While I was staring at her with tears running down my face she suddenly wakes up.

"Ah you are, awake!"

I hear an angelic voice saying that to me, it is of a voice i havent heard for decades

Where am I? Miss

You are at my home!

We saw you laying down on the streets, we thought you were a homeless boy so we took you in

Well my mother insisted that we take you in

It seemed like my mother knew you

Anyways what is your name?

Uh..

My name is Elias, Elias troum what is your name milady?

Haha.. you dont have to flatter me, my name is Mathilda Meier

I was right, I finally met you after so long, my dearest Mathilda

Anyways why are you crying Elias?

Oh, no reason Im just… Overjoyed!

Hmm I see, get comfortable because my mother wanted you to apply to an academy tomorrow

Preferably the same academy I go to

Oh.. I would love to go to the same academy that mathilda goes to.. but the problem is i've never attended an academy

Um.. Miss Mathilda, what academy do you go to?

She says proudly.
