Ed watched the earthen statue with excitement. The consciousness of lofty successfully went into the body which was half the battle. It wasn't like he could insert things into everything and anything after all.
'It's taking a bit…' Ed was starting to worry. Yet he could only wait.
But wait as he might nothing happened. This was a usual occurrence so he was not discouraged. If he could succeed on his first try every time he wouldn't even be a genius, he would be a cheat. Simply put, that was impossible.
Since after waiting for five minutes the result was nothing at all, Ed approached the statue once more and tried to retrieve the consciousness. Unexpectedly, he failed.
'Why is nothing happening!?' Ed's whirlpool of clouds continued to suck at the sculpture but Ed never felt as if he had received anything. This caused him to frown intently.
