"This Belizean was really hard to find and I even had to complete the value, look how beautiful she is, that greedy shit wizard was negotiating with me for over an hour. I hate to be in that kind of unfavorable situation, but now I have this dark storm fairy."
The mistress is admiring her precious elemental fairy as if she were her own daughter, I admit that this elemental fairy is very different from the fire element fairy that was used to exchange for this one. She is not entirely purple but has several black marks all over her body and her wings are black and oddly shaped, and like a black cape rather than a type of wing.
The name dark storm fairy really suits this fairy sealed in this clear crystal; her elemental energy is also very dark. A dark purple color and it moves like a whirlwind inside the elemental fairy's body, the fire fairy also had an energy moving that way, but with the color red to gold it was like a mine sol.
Maybe her name is solar fairy or something, I wonder how long it would take the mistress to absorb this elemental fairy. Will it end before the war starts? Mistress said that it is quite complicated to absorb an elemental fairy of that level.
"Are you going to absorb her now?"
All the happiness on the face of the mistress who was caressing the crystal that holds the fairy as if she was petting a pet disappeared completely.
"Unfortunately, no, it is very risky to absorb it and it would be a long and painful process so I have a very different plan, pay close attention Ulric, sometimes take it easy and not proceed recklessly because you feel pressured and a difficult decision to make. do, but the chance of her being the best choice for you is always pretty good."
"I will lock myself in a matrix in a secret and very protected place to sweat this elemental fairy, but I will not absorb her. I will only use her elemental energy to temper my body, the two main reasons for putting off her absorption until after the war."
"The first is that at my current level it is difficult to absorb this elemental fairy without losing too much of its elemental energy and running a great risk of dying in the process, I explained to you before how difficult it is to absorb a fairy of this level. The second reason is that it would take a long time to absorb it so I decided to leave it until after the war."
"And there would also be some negative effects if I absorbed it, so all the more reason to avoid doing that, my two elemental energies are already pretty misaligned because my advances with my lightning element have been pretty good over the last few years. With the lightning elemental fairy adding to my elemental seed my lightning element will become very strong and it can suppress my death element."
"After the war my death element will have advanced enough so that it won't happen after absorbing the elemental fairy, but I'll probably try to advance to the blue core before absorbing the elemental fairy."
"So, today's lesson is don't be suicidal by trying to eat more than you can handle, I think it would be better that way. Patience is the key to steady progress; rapid advances are a trap that can kill you and waste resources or opportunities."
"Um, I liked this sentence I will use it as mine later, but it seems you understood the lesson I really want to absorb this elemental fairy and as I dream of having her in my hands this is very difficult to resist, but at the end of the day I have to control it my greed. This is not only important in situations like this, during the missions you are going to do in a few months will be complicated, being greedy and taking too much risk could be the reason you die."
"This time you won't have a safety net like last time, your missions will be based on incomplete information or even guesswork. And there will be elite units from the enemy kingdom wanting to kill you because it would be profitable for them, don't die."
"I'll try, mistress, I think this is goodbye since you're going to be doing a very long training now?"
"Yes, most of the resources are available for you to send to your friends is to use, and just talk to Balder or Kevin who will replace me in the direction of the institute. He is an employee of my family, he has orders to help you so don't worry about resources, just ask him, I've left a list of what you can get from him."
"So, is this goodbye?"
"Yea."
"Goodbye."
" Really? That's how you'll get rid of me, you heartless boy."
"Sorry."
Before I knew it the mistress was already in front of me and hugged me.
"Be careful."
"You are going to enter the battlefield to fight many enemies, probably most of them will be stronger, and your strongest is someone who can clear the battlefield alone."
"That's true, but I have more experience staying alive in that kind of situation than you do. And I'm luckier than you are in that kind of situation. Be careful."
I felt her lips on my forehead, it's been a long time since I felt this feeling of being taken care of by a 'mother'. I wonder where my mother is, is she going to join the war too?
"Goodbye."
The mistress walked away while she was playing with the elemental fairy, she really shouldn't be throwing that elemental fairy in the air like she was a toy ball.
After being in the room alone for a while I went back to my training, there's nothing better for me to do now than get as strong as possible before I'm summoned.
The mistress didn't even stay at the institute for a week, the guy Kevin showed up at the institute one day talking to several professors and started working on the pile of papers they accumulated during the director's trip. I only spoke to him once for a short period of time, he has a very formal and professional air which is not something you would expect from someone who has been appointed to replace the mistress.
He gave me a list and said that he has already submitted several articles that match the part of the profit from the 'sale' of the elemental fairy. He uses the temple of wealth to send these materials to my team members, I was somewhat surprised by his initiative and his comments about a rare ice element material that was delivered to Hilda.
Pure Soul Glacial Ice, that's a pretty big name for a very unique material. A chunk of ice that withstands an enormous amount of heat and has purifying properties for both the body and the soul, it is a very useful material for anyone. But the part that surprised me the most was Kevi's comment that this material will be very useful for Hilda's weapon.
For some reason I felt his comment had a hidden content, he was talking about the spear that Hilda is going to forge that will be bonded to her body which should be a secret, he really emphasized the ice purifying feature and adding to that being the only material he commented on. I really feel uncomfortable with this comment, I feel that the more people know about Hilda's spear the greater the danger she is in, any enemy of Hilda would aim for her spear if they can't kill her directly.
With the list of all the gifts and payments the mistress left available for me to spend as much of it as possible, it doesn't make much sense to store them for use after the war. So, I went to see Calen and Lofar to see what could be used to improve my chances of surviving the next year, I doubt this war will end quickly.
I didn't have much hope that I could spend all the materials because it's very difficult to improve my current equipment, it doesn't make much sense to order a level four equipment because it's a burden on my body and it's extremely difficult to improve my current one. Upgrading a ready-made equipment is extremely difficult and as mine is already a high-quality equipment it is even more difficult to improve them.
But Calen had his way, she was impressed with the articles on the list. Avia many rare natural treasures with sonic properties that allowed her to make my armor stronger and more compatible with my elemental energies, unfortunately my bow couldn't be improved but not only did she give me some special level four arrow options for her to manufacture, as she told me there were many materials to use in my blades.
She may not tinker with many metals, but Calen can easily point me to materials Lofar might want to use. She has already assured me that the materials she decided to use wouldn't be very useful for Lofar to use, the materials she would use in my armor would be handed over to her later, so there's no point in me leaving my armor with her now as the materials are just empty. be given to her later.
When I talked to Lofar he didn't even explain to me what he intended to do with my weapons, the moment he saw the list of subjects that had a lot of crossed out items he was fascinated and excited which is great news for me. But when I told him that the articles weren't with me and would only arrive later for him, his enthusiasm diminished a lot, he still discouraged, he circled the materials he wanted on the list.
After saying goodbye to my despondent friend, I looked at my list of subjects, but seventy percent of the names on it were crossed out or circled. As for unused materials I have no idea if any of them are useful for my cultivation other than the two types of fruit that are on the list.
When I get back to the institute, I'm going to ask Kevin to send the materials to Lofar and Calen. I hope nothing's wrong with my gear, it would suck to have to replace them now.
