Zosia: Quick Transmigration System

Lysel looked at Mirabel whom he hadn't seen in a few days. She was looking refreshed but despite that, he could feel her underlying tiredness.

He wasn't the only one that noticed it. He turned to look at Kent whom he realized had some feelings towards this cousin sister of his. He hadn't thought of how to face her yet, especially after finding out that his mother was her father white moonlight and her father had taken her own mother as a substitute. If he was the one in her shoes, he would feel so uncomfortable that he might even hate that person.

But, this cousin's sister of his didn't, she doesn't hate him. She was willingly teaching them how to survive. For the past few days, his mood has improved, he was no longer being bullied and had rather become the object of envy to his classmates. Coming down from the luxurious car every morning, wearing a well ironed uniform everyday. He was slowly integrating himself in the luxury, that he was even starting to order the servants like they were his.

Turning his gaze to Ariana, Inwardly, he couldn't help but whistle. Her figure was well sculpted and her pure eyes, which held worry as she looked at her daughter. He was beginning to fantasize about some dirty thoughts. Thinking about those thoughts his eyes got darker and a bulge was rising from within him.

"Keep thinking about that and you will lose your head." Zosia's voice, low and dangerous cut through his thoughts like a knife.

Startled, Lysel snapped his head towards her, his face flushing with embarrassment. Zosia stood there, her expression stern and unyielding. Her eyes held a warning that he dared not ignore.

"Continue thinking about that and forgetting why you are here and watch yourself being sliced through like butter," she continued, her voice cold as ice. "We have more important matters to attend to, so Focus."

Lysel swallowed hard and nodded, trying to push aside his inappropriate thoughts. Her warning alone sent shivers up his spine. He realized how dangerous his cousin's sister could be. Right now, he was aware of the gravity of their situation demanded his full attention, and he couldn't afford to let his mind wander. The more wandering, just like she had said, the easier it was for him to die.

Ariana, seemingly oblivious to the exchange, addressed the group. "We need to strengthen our defenses. The threats are increasing, and we can't afford to be caught off guard." Her voice was calm but firm, her authority undeniable. But she still had to listen to her daughter.

"We would start with some light trainings." The projector in the room light up, a video began playing. We would be following this routine and it would be an intense one. But before that, you all should drink this." She said bringing out three vials.

"I have already drank mine, it would help strengthen your muscles and clean your meridians while also maintaining your muscles tone. It has other effects but these are the most pronounced for the current situation. " She turned to look at Ariana's limping leg and continued, "As well as take care of injuries and diseases, depending on the range."

Kent and Ariana were surprised. Taking the vial with a mixture of caution, curiousity and suspicion. They watched as Lysel took it and gulped it down immediately.

The last one he took, he had noticed that not only had his internal and external injuries be healed, it had also made his skin smoother and more milkier, it also increase the length of his lollipop by some extent. It wasn't that noticeable.

Seeing that Lysel gulped it down without hesitation and even seemed to be longing for more, they quickly downed theirs as well.

Kent looked at Lysel and it immediately occured to him that it might have been what Lysel had drank, that made those life threatening injuries disappear like it was never there in the first place.

His eyes flashed with a hint of contemplation. He could even feel that force within him reacting to it.

"You can feel the changes within you."

Ariana stared at her daughter in surprise. Right now, she was 100% sure this wasn't her daughter. Her heart, gripped in fear and guilt. She tried not to let those emotions appear but they still couldn't escape Zosia's eyes.

Zosia sighed inwardly, she didn't also want to do this, but she kept on meddling. Since, this was within her capacity, she decided to do it. If she left them, then all her efforts would have gone to waste.

Ariana could feel that the pain she felt was no longer there. She had wondered how her daughter said, she would treat her leg, but now she understood. Her eyes flashed with a hint of contemplation and aversion.

"Could, Mirabel or whoever was occupying her daughter, use it on Keira? Maybe it would stop Kael from taking her daughter away." The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to give it a try.

As for the talk she had been postponing and thinking of how to approach it, she decided to approach it today.

"First we would start with basic exercises and understanding our foundations." Zosia said, bringing everyone's thoughts to a halt.

As the group dispersed to begin their preparations, Lysel found himself standing alone for a moment, reflecting on the changes in his life. He realized that despite the luxury and the newfound status, there were responsibilities and dangers that came with it. He couldn't let himself be distracted by petty desires or personal grudges. The stakes were too high. His life was on that stake.

Determined to prove himself and to protect those he cared about, Lysel took a deep breath and joined the others, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead. But was he actually ready?

Kent on the other hand, did not go but walked towards Zosia.

"Where did you get it from?" He asked, his tone, curious.

"It's not for you to know, Kent. Knowing too much can be your death."

"At least can I get three vials,.... no five?" His eyes held silent plea as he stared at her.

"Sigh! For what Kent?" She asked, hesitant.

"Will tell you at the end of everything. Please!"

"Give me time to think about it. It's very dangerous to get it and I have only few." She said. Lying easily was one of the deception skill one should have. It can save you sometimes but can also throw you into a Quagmire. It's very necessary to know when to do it and have a good reason for doing it.

"Thanks." Kent said and left with twinkle in his eyes. Despite Zosia saying she would think about it, he was still happy, believing that he could convince her with time. He may even tell her about it, if she was willing to tell him how to get it. As for what he would tell her, that was known only to him.

After Kent left, Ariana halted in her training and walked up to her. The her was the person hearing her daughter's body.

"I want to talk to you." Her icy voice entered into Zosia's ears. She looked at Ariana's eyes which no longer regarded her with concern and love.

Sighing inwardly, she nodded her head.

"Let's talk outside." She muttered, turning towards Kent and Lysel, "Continue training, I am coming."

She led Ariana out of the basement. Yup, after that night, she had completely refurbished the basement that it now looked like a training room for elites. Thinking about the resources she had spent on it, she immediately felt happy when she remembered that the money she used was the one she had snatched from Kael's account as well as those bullies and the ones behind the scenes. If she could get her hand on some of Dawn's resources, it would be better.

Closing the soundproofed doors behind her, she looked at Ariana. She wasn't sure if to hypnotize her and tell her that all she was seeing was a lie, but thinking about Kevin, the first being she had pushed out despite it not being her own body, she didn't have the heart to do it. Where had all her decisiveness gone?

Her eyes flickered, she decided to erase her memory of certain things, the moment she was leaving this world.

"Who are you?" Ariana hands extended like claws, clutching her neck. She could escape it but didn't.

"Release me first. We can talk in a better way but I definitely won't be answering you in this situation."

Ariana thought for a moment and let go. "Talk."

"I can't say much but just know I am here to help. In a few weeks time, I would be gone and you would have your daughter back."

"So you agree that you aren't my daughter?"

Zosia shrugged not answering her question, that was for her to guess.

"How exactly.... Like give me an exact time when you would be leaving."

"Give me your phone."

Ariana eyes her suspiciously and gave her the phone. Despite having the relief that her daughter was still around somewhere and not replaced, she still wasn't settled.

Zosia keyed in the exact time, including the minutes and seconds left in the countdown timer.

"You don't have to worry, I won't do anything to her body."

Ariana finally nodded and decided to swallow back the questions she wanted to ask.

Looking at Zosia's eyes, she knew she wouldn't get anymore answer.

"What is your name? And what are you?" Since the person was unwilling to answer anything related to her daughter, she hoped to gleam more clues from this at least.

Zosia who had turned to open the door, halted in her steps. Turning to Ariana who still maintained her composure, which she was glad for.

"Those are unnecessary. No need to bother yourself with those questions."

She turned an opened the door, entering back into the bright training room.

Ariana stared at her back, glancing at the timer that was continuously ticking, she controlled her breathing and tried to calm herself despite how she felt inside.

"Soon, my daughter would be back. Other questions are unnecessary. But now, how do I treat her?" She thought Inwardly, unable to answer the question.

Let's just go with the flow.
