I Transmigrated into the Wrong Body

Date with Akimitsu (19)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ellery notified the relevant people about Darya moving into his childhood home, making sure they knew and understood so she wouldn't be harassed for living there even after he moved out.

With that settled, he had Seth clean up the guest room, which was originally his brother's room. It was the only room available for her to sleep in.

Finishing that, he ordered some food and waited for Darya to arrive with her things. They didn't live too far from each other, but she had a lot of things to pack, so it took her a few hours to get all of her stuff to the house. Whatever was left in the apartment was maintained by a housekeeping robot that she already had.

The place would be used as storage while she waited for Orin to come back.

Ellery talked about the arrangements with Aster, who didn't mind. Darya was Ellery's family, even if they weren't biologically related. They were still related legally, and they only had each other in a sense. Plus, they wouldn't be living in this house after a couple of weeks, so he had no reason to be upset.

Aster didn't want to resume control any time soon, so Ellery had control of their body for the time being.

It was strange, now that Aster and Ellery's souls were situated in their body, it felt like they both had equal control of the body. It was almost like an identity disorder, but they had much more control over it.

When Aster first came into the body, Ellery felt like his own soul would detach from his body at any given time. That wasn't the case now. This felt like his body again, which was a strange feeling.

Though, he did feel that he would have to make sure Aster came back to the forefront from time to time or the man would never leave their consciousness...

Maybe they really should figure out how to separate their souls. How would they do that if they only had one body, though? It was something he needed to think about.

Once Darya got situated in Ellery's childhood home, Ellery felt more relieved to go on his date with Adjutant Ito.

Ito Akimitsu arrived at Ellery's house and, for the first time, felt anxious. Even though he was Marshal Caecius' Adjutant, he had never been on a date before. Everyone who approached him had ulterior motives toward his boss, so in the end, he felt like it was impossible to find someone who liked him for who he was.

Then he met Ellery. Confident, beautiful, and intelligent. The only problem was that he was sharing his body with another soul who was extremely compatible with Marshal Caecius...

He didn't hold any resentment toward his best friend. He loved, respected, and looked up to his friend, he just didn't want to fight his friend to be with someone.

He wished they were in two separate bodies, so they would be able to be a couple without it being complicated.

Akimitsu sighed and thought he should see if there was anything he could do in this situation.

As he was thinking, Ellery walked out to see Akimitsu pacing in front of the door. He looked like he was thinking about something serious because he didn't even notice Ellery walk out.

"Hello, Adjutant Ito, I'm here." Ellery did his best to get his attention.

Akimitsu finally snapped out of it and almost got his breath taken away with what Ellery was wearing. "You... You can just call me Akimitsu."
