"Is there still no news from him?" Fulwood asked an old man from the spirit tree race with a dark expression.
Unlike another servant, this old man has been Fulwood's personal protector since his birth, a privilege enjoyed only by the Dark Duke's direct line.
The old man stoically replied, "No, my lord, we've been keeping an eye on the Dark Earl for six months now, not to ntion him seeking us out. He didn't even leave the estate. My n from the inside told that he had been cooped up in the darkroom since he received your gift, and an unknown party paid him a visit, which most likely suspected to be a ssenger from the Star Hackers."
Fulwood's expression turned ugly, "But we were still not able to find what was inside that box, right?"
"Yes, the maid had her eyes closed at that ti, so we don't know what he received that day. I've also inquired about his purchases before he went underground. It seed he was planning on doing so alchemy project." The old man stated with uncertainty.
"Just what the hell is this guy doing? Send six more bottles of Spirit Tree Nectar that I've prepared for him!" Fulwood ordered grimly.
'Father told to wait patiently, yet it's been six months since I've given him those diluted bottles, and he didn't respond at all. Could it be that nectar wasn't enough to make him addicted, or does the life dicine have little effect on him?
'But there is definitely sothing wrong. After he received that box, there was no attack or movent from the star hackers. Don't tell he had already sold his secret for his life?
'If he didn't respond after this, then there's a chance he didn't even drink the nectar. So, I'll have to use another thod to make him submit!' Fulwood eyes flashed with callousness.

At this mont, within the Dark Room, Jacob seems to be sound asleep on the bed, while in reality, he is within the nightmare dreamscape realm, looking at Nyx with astonishnt.
Nyx's figure was surrounded by ethereal dark threads like a giant cocoon, and this abrupt change had only started a few seconds ago. Jacob had to hurry over.
"What is this?" Jacob quickly asked as he could feel a strange power rising in the nightmare realm.
"I think I'm about to evolve! I just received the nightmare conqueror seed from the Wyvern, and it seed we had underestimated the strength of his soul. Anyhow, I don't know what will happen after this since I'm feeling exhausted and want to sleep.
"I quickly called you because you might not be able to enter the nightmare realm after this. I'm also about to transfer your portion of his dreamscape realm to your soul, so don't be alard after whatever happens; this power is too strong.
"N—now… wa…wait for…" Nyx's voice suddenly beca extrely faint before completely vanishing as that ethereal cocoon completed.
Before Jacob could react, he suddenly felt a torrent of icy power break into his mind. His vision blanked as a mysterious change suddenly started to take place in his mind.
This abrupt change was out of Jacob's calculations, and now he was in slumber without any protection. But since he was in the Dark Room, no one could enter without altering the entire city or sothing like the Star Hackers attack happened again.
After an unknown ti, Jacob finally opened his eyes, but there was sothing different about them now. His amber irises were now turned completely golden, and there seed to be a strange power in them that could make anyone with a weak mind fall into a deadly illusion.
Jacob also felt sowhat different; he felt extrely calm and could see more colors in his surroundings now.
'Sothing has changed after Nyx injected the soul vitality of Fla Calamity into my soul. It's completely different from before…'
Jacob sat up and looked around the ssy lab. To his astonishnt, he saw a faint wisp of particles emitting from the alchemy equipnt and almost everything related to magic.
'This is…' Jacob clearly knew he hadn't used the Eyes of Judge, yet he could still vaguely see those color spectrum particles from the magic devices.
Although they were not completely clear, like when he used the Eyes of Judge and couldn't see them in the environnt, he knew this was so kind of breakthrough.
At this mont, Jacob suddenly felt so tangible power in his brain and then focused the Rune Artificer Brush on the table. He felt as if he was touching it with his hands and instinctively tried to lift it.
Sothing astonishing happened as the brush suddenly lifted by an invisible force, and with Jacob's will, it directly pulled towards him!
Jacob grabbed the brush and confird it wasn't a dream, his eyes shimring with shock.
'T-telekinesis! This has to be telekinesis!'
To confirm his guess, he looked at another item and tried to lift it again. Just like before, he could easily lift it and manipulate it with his will!
Ecstatic, Jacob tried to lift the furnace, which was around 500 kg, but this ti, he wasn't able to lift it and only made it slightly tremble before his grip on it broke.
'So, there is a limit to what I can lift?' Jacob mused, not discouraged at all, and began fiddling with this new power more.
However, after just five minutes, he felt exhausted and lethargic and could no longer use the Telekinesis to lift any object.
"Cursed Immorality!" Jacob quickly summoned Immortika while fighting the urge to sleep. He wanted to grasp the true changes that had happened after he fell into slumber.
"Can you be so kind as to tell if this ability is related to my soul or my eyes? Any clue would be helpful," Jacob asked as nicely as possible.
Immortika burst into usual laughter before finally writing, "Well, since you've already reached this point and asking so sincerely, I can divulge so information.
"First, your Eyes of Judge just entered the Initial Stage of their awakening, which gave you the passive ability of Judgnt Gaze, which can allow you to see True and False.
"The second thing, 'Telekinesis,' is the innate ability a person awakens when they reach the Fable Legendary Rank, and it is called the Soul Force!
"Oh, and since you've already awakened the Soul Force, you are ready to know that the Eyes of Judge is also a connate ability that uses the Soul Force. Before you were using your Soul Vitality to use the Eyes of Judge, which is akin to burning your life.
"Still, if you exhaust your soul force, you will again start to use it with your soul vitality, so I suggest you don't be reckless. Although you have awakened sothing that only a Fable Legendary should have, the amount of soul force you possess is 1/10,000 of what a Fable Legendary Rank possessed, and you don't have the…
"Oh, look at . I was about to break a rule; I guess I was too emotional about your progress…hahahahha. This is the limit of what I can tell you now. But knowing you, I think this much should be enough, hehehehe!"
