"Why don't you purify yourself?" - asked aiden confused by the situation.
His most powerful seal, or rather his only seal, failed to purify the ghost in front of him, it only managed to almost freeze him.
That's an effect he can't control by doing the seals with vision of him, he has a chance to freeze the target.
"I don't know..." - Answered the ghost girl as she shivered from the cold.
In that, strong footsteps were heard outside the room as if someone was running.
"WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?!" - Chitose yelled as she looked around the room and what she found was Aiden with a confused face and the half-frozen ghost.
"I was purifying the ghost..." - Aiden answered as he thought that his first attempt to purify a ghost failed miserably.
Chitose just stared at them for a moment before going to the ghost and checking if she's okay, Aiden stared at this a bit confused.
"For now... I'm going to help yuuna to warm up, then we can talk, I see that you have questions to ask like me...". - Chitose said as she led the frozen ghost or Yuuna out of the room leaving aiden in his thoughts.
--xXx--
"..."
Some time later, aiden, chitose and the ghost yuuna were in the dining room looking at each other without saying anything.
"Are... are you better now?" - Aiden asked Yuna trying to get out of the uncomfortable silence that was in the room.
"Mmm .. Yes, I'm not so cold anymore ..." - Yuuna answered while she was wrapped in a few coats to cool off the cold.
"Mmmm, I'm really sorry, even though my plan was to purify you, I didn't think you could resist long enough to end up frozen like this…" - Aiden replied feeling a little bad for her, he wanted to purify her, but not hurt her.
He didn't know that by forcibly purifying a strong ghost he would hurt it, he might know several things from the anime. but aiden's not a fan of spirit series and such, so he really didn't know.
"(Sigh) for now, better because we don't introduce ourselves well, I'll start... As you already know, my name is Nakai Chitose and I'm a Zashiki-warashi, nice to meet you." - Chitose said as she introduced herself.
"And I, I am Yunohana Yuuna and I am the ghost of yuragi-sou... nice to meet you." - Said yuuna, seeming to try to introduce herself amicably, but it's clear that she's still trembling both from cold and from a little fear.
"(Sigh) well... my name is Honton Aiden, but you can call me aiden, I'm a normal boy who not long ago found out that the supernatural exists...". - Aiden introduced himself as she sighed.
"Mmmm... can I, can I ask aiden-san something?" - Yuuna said as she raised her hand for permission.
"Sure..." - Aiden agreed.
"If aiden-san got the spiritual powers from him not long ago, how do you see me?" - Yuna asked.
"Mmmm, well I see you as a beautiful girl with long white hair and red eyes... why?" - Aiden answered while he smiled and thought- 'the good thing about meeting new people is that they don't know who you are and you can pretend more easily...'
Yes, aiden, what he is trying to do is make us forget about his fiasco in trying to purify yuuna. since he can't purify her he will befriend her, at least while he gathers information about her and the other people living here in yuragi-sou.
"Ah, well... it's just that people who have come here and have a bit of spirit energy, usually see me as a white silhouette that has a weird voice, or so I've heard..." - Said yuuna as she looked sad about that.
"Mmmm, it must be difficult" - Said aiden while he looked at her with a little pity.
"But it is surprising, that you said that not long ago you obtained your spiritual powers and you can see yuuna-san well…" - Chitose said in a voice that sounds to Aiden like he's hinting at something.
"Well, it's true that he got them recently, but somehow I have a lot of energy...". - Aiden said as he nodded, and it's not even 10% of his true energy, rather it wasn't even 1% of his true energy.
Both chitose and yuuna were silent for a while before chitose was the first to speak.
"... well, if you'll excuse me, I have to get on with my chores, I'll see you later" - Chitose said as she got up and left, but not before giving Aiden a discreet look.
And so, aiden was left alone with yuuna...
"Well... I'll go to my room..." - Aiden said as he got up and began to walk.
"Ah, me too..." - Said yuuna as she began to float towards aiden.
Aiden noticed this, but he didn't say anything, he didn't want to... but until he got to the door of his room and saw that yuuna was still behind him, he couldn't take it anymore.
"Tell me yuuna, which is your room?" - Aiden asked as he stopped at the door.
"Mmmm, well, I am a ghost that is bound to a place and that place is the yuragi-sou, well to be more specific I am the ghost that is bound to room 204...". - Yuuna replied a little embarrassed by the situation.
"..." - Aiden was silent for a moment before sighing and opening the door.
'It doesn't bother me, it's a ghost so it doesn't matter much... I just hope it doesn't possess me... I need a countermeasure for that...' - Thought Aiden as he entered and let Yuuna pass.
Yuuna was going to speak, but Aiden looking at her sad face decided to cut her off and speak first.
"It's alright yuuna, I don't mind living in a room with such a pretty girl... 'Even though she's a ghost'..." - Said aiden as he gave yuuna a smile.
"Thank you very much, I promise not to cause you problems" - Yuuna answered happily when she heard Aiden.
"Well, since we'll be living together from now on, I hope we'll be good friends" - said aiden as he smiled and shook yuuna's hand.
"Ah, yes, I hope we can be good friends too" - Said yuuna happily as she grabbed aiden's hand with both of her hands and shook it strongly.
They stared at each other for a moment not knowing how to continue, since aiden isn't exactly a good conversationalist and yuuna isn't in a condition to hold a conversation, so aiden decided to leave it like that for now.
"Well... if you'll excuse me, I'm going to train, please don't bother me until it's lunch time...". - Aiden said as he went to a corner of the room and sat in a meditative position.
He needs to be able to get into his mind and start with the second requirement.
"Ah, yes" - Yuuna answered as she looked at aiden for a bit before going to a part of the room to return her body to normal temperature.
Yuuna doesn't know... but, the ice made by aiden's energy is not normal, so yuuna will have to wait a long time to be well.
