Chapter 15 Not Chalk
After sharing a heartfelt moment, the two girls separated and resumed their previous activities. Kailey recalled her plan before being interrupted by Aleshia's scolding. She believed that if she found the object that must have fallen during her crisis, she could do something with the remaining soul residue. Kailey was confident with Aleshia helping her search. They could find it faster because two people searching would be more effective than one.
However, When Kailey saw Aleshia holding a fragment of her soul, she knew they didn't need to search for it anymore. She changed her plan and approached Aleshia, asking how she obtained the soul fragment. Aleshia explained from the beginning, not wanting to be misunderstood, stating that she was worried about Kailey's situation and had kept a close eye on her. Aleshia described seeing what looked like flakes falling from Kailey's glowing body. She kept a careful watch on it while observing Kailey. After Kailey stopped looking pained, the soul dust that had fallen from her body merged and solidified into the chalk Aleshia was now holding in her hand.
Kailey felt touched by Aleshia's concern and thanked her with a hug. After finishing up, she got to business and asked Aleshia for the soul fragment. When Aleshia handed it over to her, there was an audible crack. When Kailey turned the chalk over, she found out that the chalk was a mini capsule resembling a piece of chalk. Suddenly, a revelation hit Kailey. Realizing she had to put the contract into the tiny capsule, Kailey approached the table, grabbed the large scroll, and began rolling it up in a feeble attempt to make it fit into the capsule. To her surprise, when she finished rolling it up, the scroll started to shrink the size of the capsule.
When Kailey put the now-tiny contract into the capsule, nothing happened. After waiting a few more moments, there was still no activity. Confused by the lack of activity, Aleshia approached Kailey and whacked her on the head. "You dunce, what are you doing just staring at the thing? Now that I think about it, knowing that there is something inside the capsule, it reminds me of a pill container, a storage implement that apothecaries prescribe to the rich folk." After being given an indirect suggestion from Aleshia, Kailey tried consuming the capsule. As she tried to swallow, the entire space around her began to tremble.
