Chapitre 191: Soon...
Selena did not answer Beatrice's question and simply continued writing in the notebook, causing Beatrice to let out a sigh and sit down onto a chair, watching her.
After around five minutes, Selena finally finished writing, causing her to suddenly take out a small orb.
"I'm going to contact you when I need your help again," said Selena as she suddenly threw both the orb, and the notebook, towards Beatrice.
Then, before Beatrice could react in the slightest, Selena was gone.
After taking a few looks at the orb, which Beatrice discerned was a method for Selena to contact her, Beatrice was just about to open the notebook, when suddenly an ant head suddenly peaked at her from the corner.
...
As soon as she saw that the scary mage was gone, Antonia's eyes suddenly lit up, causing her to immediately run up to Beatrice and hug the latter's legs whilst shaking.
...
Looking at the ant that was currently glued to her leg, Beatrice couldn't help but lightly chuckle and stretch out her hand.
"Antonia, were you worried?" asked Beatrice with a smile on her face as she patted the head of the Ant Queen, causing the latter to slightly lower her Antennae.
"Yes Mistress, the entire colony was really worried while you were gone, you don't know how happy those little guys became when you came back," said Antonia as she stared straight up at Beatrice's eyes.
Hearing that, Beatrice lightly chuckled.
"That was quite a large overreaction, I was only gone for a few days," mumbled Beatrice as she turned her head at the small ant that had just climbed onto her shoulder.
As they heard Beatrice's words, both the small ant, and Antonia, couldn't help but slightly lower their heads.
...
Unlike the ants, who were really worried about her safety, Beatrice's own apprentice, Scythia, was much more calm and relaxed.
In fact, if not for the fact that Beatrice knew the young girl very well, she would have assumed the latter was actually happy that she was gone.
But after examining Scythia's situation for a few more seconds, Beatrice knew that the young witch still needed more time to learn, causing Beatrice tot turn her attention away from her, and onto the thing that she had obtained from all of this trouble.
...
As soon as she opened the notebook and began reading it, Beatrice's eyes gradually began brightening, as a single thought rang out through her mind.
'It was worth it...'
Although reading from a notebook was much, much less effective than soul devouring, what she had done not too long ago, compared to Ben's and Kiara's understanding of darkness, Selena's rang way closer to home to Beatrice.
As Beatrice read through the notebook, she realized that even though there was some difference between her and Selena's understanding of Darkness, in essence, both of them were based on the same thing, desire.
Even though Selena's notes were not very personal, and Beatrice did not know what that desire was directed towards, Selena's understanding of darkness was still filled with a deep desire, similar to that of Beatrice's, whose utmost desire was to live as long as possible.
Although Kiara's understanding of darkness was also tangentially linked with 'desire', it could not be named in the same sentence as Beatrice's and Selena's understandings, which were a whole different beast all together.
Thanks to this, and thanks to some notes depicting her understanding, which were a bit different from the rest, indicating that Selena had left them not too long ago, Beatrice was able to benefit quite a lot from reading the first part of the notebook, which contained Selena's understanding of Darkness.
Causing her to then begin reading the second part, which was what Beatrice was truly after, the knowledge about the Soul Transformation Stage.
...
Looking at Mistress Selena, who had just returned, Ighor, who had just finished the routine inspection of the Spatial Prism, couldn't help but bow his head.
"Mistress, You seem happy, I assume the mage has been eliminated?" asked Ighor as she slightly raised his head, causing Selena to nod her guess.
"I guess that's also true, Ighor, has there been any change in the Spatial Prism while I was gone?" asked Selena as she turned the conversation to something more important.
"No mistress, World Stability has slightly at 73.349%, same with Spatial Prism, which is operating at 93.843% of its peak power, the world has maintained its surplus of power thanks to the recovery of the Spatial Prism, I've continued pouring that power back into the world itself," said Ighor as he stared at the city below him.
Although right now the World inside the Flying City had not truly recovered, and could not power the city without outside help, things were currently much better than before.
Since the world now produced a surplus of energy, with Selena's help, it was only a matter of time before it could recover to its peak state.
By then, the Elemental Energy of the Mage World will probably recover fully, and Selena would be fully able to take advantage of that recovery thanks to the Flying City.
"Ighor, have the space mages shown any sort of growth whilst I was gone?" asked Selena, causing Ighor to sadly shake his head.
"The situation is the same, if we harvest them right now, we can help recover the Spatial Prism by roughly 2%, just like before, but with enough time, this amount should be able to grow nicely," said Ighor.
"I know that very well, you don't have to remind me, make sure to continue their mental scanning at all times," said Selena before suddenly disappearing.
...
As she stared at the beautiful continent below her, in which the concentration of Elemental Energy was currently over twenty times less than that of the Mage World, Selena couldn't help but shake her head.
Even though the continent below her was beautiful, in Selena's opinion, it couldn't compare to the ugliest parts of the Mage Worlds.
