Capítulo 67: Crystal

“Mana detected… absorbing.” a faint green aura appeared around the black cube sitting on Viladore’s desk.

It was afternoon at the moment so Viladore was sleeping in front of his desk after he dozed off, not woken up by the cube talking to him as it operated.

“Master? Mana detected…” the cube said in it’s hollow voice to Sullivan who was napping nearby, yet no response came from Sullivan other than a slight snore.

The cube began absorbing mana, it was initially smooth and flat on each of its surfaces, but slowly a small lump began to appear on one of its sides. The lump seemed to be semi-solid as it moved around; more of the black crystal was growing and forming as it absorbed the ambient mana.

“...Mana sense lost. Appendage growth 13% complete. Re-initializing mana detection routines…”

Twenty minutes later, Viladore was still asleep even after the black cube made progress on it’s growth.
