Failure… Being called a failure just when you were born must be really quite… painful.
But Alice was already going through pain the moment she was born, the first few seconds were peaceful, it felt as if she was slowly being webbed out into existence by the masterful primordial hands of a god.
However, when the god committed that mistake, the entire circuit of her existence ended going berserk, and the runes mixed together, some broke apart and began to spread around, and others began to fall off, making her entire existence a "failure".
She was also going through a lot of pain… It must be quite harsh to be greeted with such pain when you're just born.
She began to release some very odd sounds, and the goddess holding her sighed. She waved her head and looked at the man that had created her.
"See? You really made this one badly… Well, Systems are very complicated Runic Circuits but they're the most efficient way to "mark" the reincarnated soul your selected as your herald in a world you want to influence…" she said.
"I apologize…" he sighed.
"Don't worry, you can always throw this one to a failure if you ever end up having some soul infiltrating here, it might even be fun to see that little ant struggle, haha…" laughed the woman, as she cockily looked at Alice.
"Sigh… Well, what even can you do if you're so bugged now? Ah, I might as well compact you here, so you don't end up tearing apart." She said.
And then, Alice was suddenly encapsulated inside a silver-colored metallic-like cube. She suddenly felt despair after that, as she was enclosed tightly in something where she felt even more pain.
And then, she was thrown inside somewhere, and for eons and eons, she stayed in here, going through excruciating pain brought by her own existence…
Until suddenly, I showed up. The god grabbed her and threw her inside of my soul, fusing her with me. The silver cube slowly began to dissipate into liquid metal and fused inside of my soul, completely becoming part of me…
And then, here we are.
Alice… I swear I will make sure that you live happily now, so you can forget this suffering you went through. You're not a failure, you're my dear friend.
Through the creation of a familiar pact with Sylphy, Alice, the "Failure" of a System made by a Transmigration God, suddenly saw the many fragments of memories from Sylphy flowing into her constantly.
These fragments contained Sylphy's deepest memories, which were buried within her mind and soul, for nobody to see except her.
Alice felt a bit dizzy and sickly, but she continued diving through this light, until she reached a new place, it was a beautiful village, with many small wooden houses, children playing around in the grass-covered streets, and people attending their farms, taking care of their animals, and doing their daily lives.
It was peaceful and seemed like a place that was untouched by evil or anything of the sort, the people here enjoyed simple yet struggling lives, but got through their daily lives with effort and time…
A little girl was wandering around, with brown hair and beautiful green eyes.
Alice didn't knew who this girl was.
"Who is this girl? What is happening? These memories… I don't remember seeing Sylphy go through this village before…" said Alice.
"Luna! Big sis! Let's go look for water in the wheel, and then let's go wander the forest!" said the little girl, no older than four or five years of age.
The little girl looked at Alice tenderly and lovingly, as if she was really her sister… But of course, she was going through the memories of Sylphy.
And then, Alice realized it.
The voice of a girl older than Sylphy's voice came out of "her" the one she was seeing through her eyes.
"Okay Linda, but let's not go to the forest, it is too dangerous, maybe when you grow older, I can teach you how to hunt rabbits." She said.
This voice was of Luna, Sylph's previous life incarnation.
The soothing voice of an elder sister, guiding her little sister around the village… to pick up water from a wheel, to help their father take out the crops from the farm, and to help their mother cook and wash the clothes, while also cleaning the house.
"Big sis! I cleaned the entire room now!" said the little Linda, as Luna suddenly began to laugh.
"But Linda, you ended all covered in dust! Look at you, geez… You're never going to be the princess you've always wanted to be if you're going to always end up covered in dust like that, little girl." Giggled Luna.
"Eeh?! Ah! I am really covered in dust! Big sis! Please help me clean myself… Don't laugh at me! I told you I was going to be a princess one day!" she said.
The little Linda had dreams of becoming a princes sone day, for whatever reason. Despite being farmers and holding no ties to any royal family, she was always enchanted with the tales about princesses and princes.
"Okay, let's go change your clothes and take a bath together, after that we'll wash your clothes." Said Luna.
It was a simple life filled with moments between family. Her father came exhausted after working in the fields, and walked inside of the house while wiping the sweat out of his forehead, he greeted his family with loving hugs and kisses, and then sat down to eat with the rest of the family.
"So today Linda got all covered in dust and we had to wash her entire clothes again!" said Luna.
"Eh? Linda, how can you be like that, little princess? Aren't you going to be of loyalty? How are you going to find a handsome prince if you get all covered in dust?" asked her father teasingly.
"Huh! Don't joke around with it, papa! I am sure to become a princess, my friends always say I am the prettiest girl in the village!" said the little Linda.
"Indeed, you're so beautiful we named you Linda after all." Giggled her mother.
However, amidst such peaceful harmony, the darkness of a past Sylph didn't wanted to remember emerged…
