Chapter 336: Miranda Is Cute...?!
Chapter 336: Miranda Is Cute…?!
—–
I’ve always pondered and wondered what it would feel like to have a body from zero after having experienced an entire life without one.
Miranda in front of me was now experiencing this. apparently, she had utilized a spell named [Summon Mold Familiar] to come out, she inserted her own consciousness into a Mold Familiar and inserted a large part of Benladann’s mana into her own new shape, summoning herself.
Through special means, she even shapeshifted her body through magic and ended looking just as if she was made of flesh despite being made of Mold. It was a strange yet intriguing technique but magically came in all shapes and sizes, and all wonders and dangers. There wasn’t anything magic couldn’t do, but there were not many that could make magic do anything they wanted.
Nonetheless, Miranda had reached the state where she could summon herself as a Familiar and emerge out of Benladann. I immediately felt the curiosity of something, checking her Status.
She was after all just a Familiar and still shared soul with Benladann, so she couldn’t possibly be a different being if she was like this, right? Therefore, her stats and abilities might end up being just the same as Benladann at the end…
Well, I was wrong. Apparently, Miranda had become something of her own already, while still being part of Benladann.

I had just checked her status and she was indeed a being of her own in all of its rights. The only different thing is that she shared her soul with Benladann and therefore their Mana Reserves were shared. Anything than that, many of her Skills were unique to her, and she only shared mold-related stuff with Benladann and something like Chaos’ Divine Protection.
She also had Skills that Undead Mold monsters had, which I had forgotten about from way back then. They looked honestly terrifying in power, and through them, she was a tireless Mold entity with a pretty fine stat spread despite her being around 1/3 of Benladann’s power except for her Mana.
She could pull out her own weight rather decently, but she lacked a Mana Core to continue growing stronger. Maybe we could find a way for her to get her own Mana Core, but seeing how she’s just a Familiar that could unsummon itself and disappear, she would be reborn each time she’s summoned as a Familiar, and perhaps having a Mana Core might only get in the way of her constant revivals… but maybe I am wrong, and she is more than that?
She had way too many details in her Abilities to not simply be a being of her own! No matter how much you disliked the idea, you had to admit that she was cute and in fact, quite probably Benladann herself was there, no-I mean, she was Benladann but not? Erm, well, it was hard to think about it.
Maybe she even shared Benladann’s thoughts to an extent, and even her memories and the like, but she was still a brand new being here and had her own personality and the like, so I had to see what she could do after this, perhaps a fighting spar or just asking her to showcase me her abilities might suffice, anything would do at this point to satisfy my curiosity over what she was now currently. I glared at her down as she greeted me shyly.
“G-Good morning…” she said shyly while averting her gaze from me.
I felt as if she was the cutest girl I’ve seen after Benladann. I don’t know why, but something within me was telling me she was cute. Perhaps because to an extent, she is also Benladann?
It feels as if Benladann came included with a cute sister.
“W-Why are you looking at me so much, idiot? Am I that pretty or something?” she sighed while constantly stuttering. She was indeed the Tsundere type of girl, but maybe she can open up some more like all Tsundere.
“Well, yeah, Benladann’s previous life appearance is not ugly at all, she was indeed very cute,” I said.
“E-Eh? Y-You’re calling me cute?” she asked shyly, although I could feel she grew excited.
“Indeed, you’re very cute, Miranda. How have you been? How does it feel to come out?” I asked.
“I’ve already come out before, nothing new t-to me…” she said.
“Oh really?” I asked.
“Every time Benladann conjures mold, I come with it and I can see the outside world and everything within it… It’s not as if I had never seen this place before…” she said.”
“I see… How about a challenge?” I asked.
“C-Challenge?!” she asked.
“I challenge you to stay in here without going back to Benladann’s soul… and in exchange, I can do whatever you want me to do. The longer you stay here without going back, the greater the reward I can give you…” I said.
“H-Huh?! What kind of stupid challenge is that?” she asked angrily, but she was glowing red like a tomato.
“So?” I asked teasingly.
“…Fine.” She sighed.
“Ooh! So you’re staying then?” I asked.
“Y-Yeah, I guess! Ugh, okay, wake up already, Benladann! You’ve been pretending to sleep for too long already!” said Miranda, as Benladann began to chuckle.
“Wait, she was pretending to sleep?!” I asked.
“Hahaha! It was fun to listen to you two interact… Both of you are so cute…” said Benladann teasingly.
In the end, we went to have breakfast.
