Capítulo 63: Elias

Several hours later,

For these past few hours, Beatrice continually poured her mana into Elias's brain, slowly but surely shaping it to her liking.

But contrary to her expectations, Ellias seemed much more resistant to her control than expected, even though Beatrice had a much more thorough grasp of him than her prior servants, he still took more mana to enslave.

Thankfully though, by now Beatrice was at least somewhat experienced in the Dark Manipulation spell and could slow down her loss of mana by refining mana as she cast the spell.

Of course, as she could not put all of her attention on refining mana, after around three hours, Beatrice still drank the potion that she had obtained from her teacher, replenishing her depleted mana pool.

At this moment, Beatrice's eyes suddenly opened as she breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's finally over," mumbled Beatrice as she looked at the boy sleeping on her lap with a somewhat weird expression on her face.

After she had finished casting the spell, and controlling Elias, Beatrice couldn't help but fall into deep thought, trying to find the reason why the boy was so much more resistant to her mana.

'He's not any stronger than the average boy, so I can cross that off, and his willpower is not particularly strong as well,' thought Beatrice as she touched the cheek of the young boy with a smile on her face.

As she felt the white and tender skin on the boy's face, Beatrice's eyes couldn't help but narrow, as thoughts bubbled into her mind.

"Maybe he has talent for becoming a mage, that could play some part in this," mumbled Beatrice, prompting the figure sitting behind her to nod, a small smile appearing on her face.

"That's right this little guy does have the talent to become a mage," said Selena Watford as she suddenly appeared behind Beatrice, touching the latter's shoulders as she spoke.

Hearing her teacher's words, Beatrice could not help but fall into thought once again.

The fact that those with magic talent were more resistant to the Dark Manipulation spell made some sense, after all, those with magic talent, no matter how weak they were, had some resistance against mana and elemental energy.

In fact, this was one of the reasons those with higher talent could absorb mana faster, as their increased resistance allowed their bodies to be damaged much less than those with worse talent.

'Did she give me someone with magic talent on purpose, just so that she could test me?' thought Beatrice as she felt her teacher touch her cheek.

"Don't worry, I have no reason to test my little disciple," said Selena as she suddenly moved her body closer to Beatrice, staring at her and Elias somewhat weirdly.

Feeling her teacher's gaze, a thought couldn't help but suddenly enter Beatrice's mind.

'She just thought something incredibly weird,' thought Beatrice, feeling as if her teacher had just made an unfounded assumption about her.

At this moment, Beatrice did not know just how right her stray thought actually was, nor did she know how wrong her teacher's assumption was.

As she looked at her disciple, Selena couldn't help but feel that the way Beatrice looked at the little boy was somewhat weird.

Still, Selena did not pursue this matter, as she left after speaking with her disciple for a few moments, not before remembering to leave her disciple a small crystal ball.

"You can use this for now and give it back to me once I come back," said Selena, not bothering to explain what the crystal ball did.

...

Looking at her teacher's departing figure, Beatrice still couldn't help but feel weird, but even so, she ignored that feeling, shaking her head as she turned her attention toward Elias.

"Wake up," said Beatrice in a relatively cold tone as she looked at Elias, tapping him on the forehead with her nail, feeling somewhat annoyed as she looked at the little boy, as if he had caused her some trouble.

After that Beatrice got up, still feeling annoyed at the little boy for some reason, leaving Elias on the floor.

Thankfully for Elias, he woke up only a few moments later, just as Beatrice was about to go personally wake him up.

"Mistress," mumbled Elias, saying his first word after waking up from his sleep.

Hearing that, a small smile couldn't help but appear on Beatrice's face, feeling quite satisfied with the obedience Elias showed.

"Good boy," mumbled Beatrice as she patted Elias on the head, feeling quite satisfied with her new servant.

At the same time, Beatrice turned her attention toward the crystal ball her teacher had left behind, with a smile on her face.

'At least she is somewhat generous,' thought Beatrice as she picked up the crystal ball into her hands, isolating them with her mana so that her bare hands didn't touch it.

"Put your hands on this crystal ball," said Beatrice as she turned her head to her new slave.

The moment Elias placed his hands on the crystal ball, the ball suddenly changed color, becoming black.

...

At the same time in another location,

Looking at the city gate in front of her, Ella couldn't help but take in a deep breath.

It had been over a year since Ella had stepped into Deasdon city, a year since she had escaped from that hell, but even so, she still came back.

But right now, things were different compared to before, things were so much different, right now, Ella had power.

Without any hesitation, Ella stepped into the city before walking in a particular direction.

Soon after that, the nice houses around Ella began disappearing, being replaced by things that almost looked like shacks.

In only a few minutes, Ella had stepped into the slave market, beginning her search for a certain someone.

...

Looking at the unfamiliar lady before him, the fat slave trader, who was sitting on his chair felt somewhat worried as he spoke.

"Elias, we sold him half a month ago," said the slave trader, but sadly for him, these were his last words, as his body then began melting, turning into liquid as it dropped to the floor.

Capítulo 64: When you gaze into the Abyss

The moment the slave trader began melting, his guards suddenly took action, five of them took out their sword and lunged toward Ella, attacking her, while at the same time, the other five surrounded their master, as if to protect him.

But sadly for these guards, all of their struggles was meaningless, as merely a moment after they took action, they too began melting.

Only a fraction of a moment later, the slave trader, as well as his ten guards were all dead, leaving only Ella standing in the middle of the room, with no emotion visible in her eyes.

After a few moments, Ella walked out of the room, seemingly determined to continue her search.

...

At this moment, Beatrice was sitting on her bed with a large book in her hands, occasionally flipping to the next page.

But as Beatrice once again read quickly read through an entire page of the book, taking in a deep breath before flipping to another page, her hand suddenly stopped in mid air, just as it was flipping to the next page.

Although Beatrice did not have to use her hands to flip to the next pages of books, she still did so, as using her mind to do so was seemingly not as convenient for her.

After Beatrice's hand froze in the air for a few more moments, Beatrice then took in another deep breath, then, Beatrice slowly placed the book on the bed before sitting cross-legged next to it as an surprised expression could be seen on her face.

'It's quite early,' thought Beatrice as she then closed her eyes and began steadily breathing.

Then, Beatrice finally let go, as her breaths became more and more frequent, causing her body to slowly but surely begin convulsing.

Slowly but surely, a transformation began taking place inside of Beatrice's body.

Although Beatrice had lost her body from her past life, and as such, was merely an Offical Knight right now, she still had the mastery of her Knight breathing technique from her past life.

As such, in the background and without spending any time truly focusing on it, Beatrice's knight training quickly flew by, strengthening her body, letting her come closer and closer to becoming a Grand Knight as soon as possible.

Even though Beatrice expected to become a Grand Knight sooner rather than later, her estimates did not predict that she would do so this early.

Ignoring these protruding thoughts, Beatrice focused on the transformation of her body, as her breaths slowly began stabilizing.

Over thirty minutes later,

In these past thirty minutes, Beatrice carefully felt her transformation to becoming a Grand Knight, not moving her body in the slightest, in fear of disturbing it or causing some adverse side effects for herself.

Right now, over thirty minutes after her transformation began, Beatrice suddenly opened her eyes, some disappointment flashing through them.

"As expected, compared to the transformation caused by advancing as a Mage, this is way too shallow," mumbled Beatrice as she tightened her fist, feeling the large power contained in it.

But even though becoming a Grand Knight increased the power of her body, Beatrice was still disappointed.

Suddenly a knock was heard on the door.

"Come in," said Beatrice as she got up from the bed, no longer sitting cross-legged.

A moment after that, Elias walked in with two plates filled with food in his hands, causing some weird thoughts to appear in Beatrice's mind.

Looking at Elias and then at the unappetizing food in his hands, a scene suddenly appeared in Beatrice's mind, Elias sitting on a table with his organs taken out.

As she thought about that scene, Beatrice couldn't help but unconsciously bite her lips, causing her gaze towards Elias to subtly change.

"Leave them on a table and leave," said Beatrice as she walked into the bathroom with a weird look on her face, leaving Elias behind.

"Yes mistress," said Elias, quickly leaving both the plates and the cutlery on a table before quickly exiting the room.

...

Feeling the hot water from the shower wash over her body, Beatrice let out a soft sigh, feeling quite annoyed with her current body.

Although the power of her current body was not that bad, compared with her previous one from when she had become a Peak Mage Apprentice, the rest of it's qualities were too far off.

The thing that annoyed Beatrice the most was by far sleeping, in her past life at her peak, Beatrice could sustain herself with an incredibly reduced amount of sleep.

"I will find you," mumbled Beatrice as she suddenly walked out from under the shower an annoyed look appearing on her face once again as her thoughts about sleeping caused her to once again think about her death.

After a few more moments, Beatrice dressed up a little before putting on a robe and walking out of the bathroom and back into her room.

Feeling the tasteless food but nutritious food that was entering her mouth, a look of annoyance couldn't help but flash on Beatrice's face once again.

But then, a few moments after that, a thought couldn't help but flash through Beatrice's mind.

'Have I become easier to annoy after my death?' thought Beatrice, as slowly but surely, a true frown appeared on her face.

...

As Beatrice was sitting on her bed, she began looking through all of her memories since she had been reincarnated, eventually landing on a certain memory that had happened today.

Ever since Beatrice was reborn, she had never been truly annoyed.

Back when she was at the Shadow Monastery, Beatrice had no time to be annoyed, as she had to think of a plan of escape.

And as she became the apprentice of the Witch of Death, not only did her teacher treat her pretty well, contrary to her expectations, but even if did not treat her well, Beatrice could do nothing about it.

As Beatrice thought about it, the fact that today was the first time since Beatrice had been reborn that she was annoyed rang alarm bells in her mind.

"If I was in my past life, would I have ever thought about killing someone still useful to me if I was annoyed?" asked Beatrice, already knowing the answer.

Although Beatrice had killed for fun in the past, she did not even think about killing those useful to her.

At this moment, a certain scene hidden in Beatrice's mind slowly revealed itself to her.
