Inside a luxurious room filled with exquisite decor, three figures could be seen. Two of them seed to be conversing with each other, while the last one was laying on top of a table, no motions were seen.
At the mont, the stunning pale-skinned Grand Magus Zenoia was staring at the person in front of her, a disciple of her, "Did you do exactly like what I instructed you to do, Xion?" The grand magus said with a sharp glint in her eyes.
Facing his grand master, Magus Xion tried to calm his nervous state and answered, "Yes, master… He actually took two pills instead of one…"
"Two Spirit Foundation pills? And he survive those?" Grand Magus Zenoia asked with disbelief. But as he nodded his head as a sign of confirmation, Magus Xion was sure he could see traces of elation in his ntor's expression.
The gorgeous grand magus turned even more excited the mont she saw the confirmation. While Magus Xion was a little taken back by the reaction of his ntor, he still voiced the thing that he worried the most.
"Master… Is he going to be alright?" Magus Xion asked, pointing his finger at the figure laying on the table.
Grand Magus Zenoia was silent for a mont, "I don't know, Xion. Probably not." The grand magus chuckled, as she heard the words coming out of her own mouth.
Upon hearing the last words spoken out, the expression on Magus Xion changed as he pleaded, "Master, he is a good kid. Can you help him?"
"Of course I can, Xion.. but I can only do half the process. The rest of it will be depending on him. Let's see if this kid has the will to succeed."
After she said that, Grand Magus Zenoia raised her hand. In an instant, Ery's body, who had laid unconscious on the table, started to float into the air.
Several seconds passed, as the grand magus chanted and casted a spell. Imdiately after, the shadow beneath grand magus' figure suddenly moved by itself and unexpectedly rose to the air towards the floating Ery.
In the blink of an eye, the shadow went into Ery's body, covering his entire body with a layer of impenetrable darkness.
Due to the spell, Ery was slowly awakened from his unconscious state. Still in half-conscious condition, Ery was startled when he realized he couldn't see anything around him, only pitch black darkness. Thanks to the spell that encompassed his body, Ery could not see past the layer of darkness, but he could still faintly hear sounds outside of it.
While he tried to perk up his ears, catching anything that could help him identify where he was, Ery suddenly felt a strange sensation in his entire being, as if hundreds of small ants were crawling all over his body. The sensation was both painful and soothing at the sa ti.
"A Dark Core is truly a fascinating matter…" Grand Magus Zenoia mumbled, causing Magus Xion's face to change. "The way the ancients cultivated... Hmm… I wonder if the kid thought of this or if it was because of an accident."
A perturbed expression appeared on Magus Xion's face, as Grand Magus Zenoia worked on Ery's body. Well, his worry was not without reason, as his esteed master currently didn't look like treating Ery at all. Instead, it looked more like an experint.
Monts later, the focused Grand Magus finally spoke again, "Yes. As expected... There are bits and pieces of the three different elents stuck inside his dark core, causing it to turn chaotic, as it is unable to filter the energy of the three elents correctly."
Grand Magus Zenoia then flipped her hand and casted another spell. The layer of darkness around Ery's body swiftly waved all around, creating a swirling black vortex.
Inside the vortex, the now fully-awakened Ery felt the spell slowly made his chaotic spirit core relaxed, as it slowly released the tension it held. At the mont, Ery felt as if a tight blockade within him had been destroyed without traces, he could suddenly breathe the air seamlessly.
Still excitingly examining the changes occurring inside Ery's body, the grand magus didn't leave Magus Xion in the dark, as she proceeded to explain her findings, "The pain was coming because he was unable to absorb all those surging energies from the pill."
But then, Grand Magus Zenonia was suddenly startled, as she delved deeper into Ery's dark core. The expression on her face indicated she had found sothing unexpected. Whatever it was, it must be extraordinary to make even an esteed grand magus surprised.
Grand Magus Zenoia found a particular dark energy lingering in the depth of Ery's dark core. Curiosity filled her, the grand magus casted another spell, trying to reach deeper. Alas, she was frozen in shock as the mysterious energy bounced her probe back.
On the other hand, Ery could feel sothing slowly brewing inside him, right in his spirit core. A sphere of energy was growing and then, in an instant, an explosion occurred within his spirit core. Ery felt a rush of spirit energy flowing through his body. His spirit core was once again undergoing the evolution to the next stage.
[Spirit core of Darkness - stage 4]
[Your spirit force had increased trendously]
[Spirit force 185].
Ery was astounded as he saw the notification that appeared inside his mind. That was an imdiate increase of 30 points! He suddenly felt refreshed, as if he was reborn. Ery felt as if his whole body was being lifted up full of energy.
The mont Grand Magus Zenoia retracted her spells, Ery finally realized the situation he was in. He quickly got off the table and knelt in front of the grand magus. "Thank you for your kindness, grand magus." Ery said with a hint of gratitude in his voice.
Ery was silent for a few seconds, waiting for the grand magus' response. Alas, it seed the grand magus was sohow lost in her thought. Magus Xion, who noticed his master's condition, asked with a worried tone, "Master... Are you alright?"
That was the exact mont the grand magus returned to her senses. And the next thing she did was staring at Ery. A disbelief was seen on her face, before it suddenly turned into laughter.
"kid… you can go now..."
Not only Ery, but even Magus Xion also found the reaction the grand magus showed to be very strange. But the two of them surely didn't have the guts to ask why. Hence, Ery quickly gave another gratitude and excused himself together with Magus Xion.
When the two of them left the room, leaving Grand Magus Zenoia alone in there, the grand magus finally returned to her composed self. She walked towards one of the information cube floating in the room and searched for sothing in the academy database.
Browsing through the database, Grand Magus Zenoia opened the profile list of the academy's second year acolytes. She then accessed the profile of one of those acolytes, to be more precise, Ery's. As the grand magus read through the file from his recent accomplishnt to his first year history, her eyes suddenly glowed the mont they landed on a certain incident that happened in the first year.
