William could tell that Alice was trying to show off her new skill in front of him: the water surface suspension technique.
Yes, the water surface suspension technique!
After her recent practice in alchemy, Alice had achieved unprecedented control over her mental power, reaching the peak of advanced Soulmancer level.
In just twenty days, she had progressed from an intermediate to the peak of advanced Soulmancer level, a feat that would qualify her as a genius in any era.
But...
Showing off water surface suspension as a Soulmancer at the peak of advanced level?
That's really not something to brag about!
Aren't advanced level Soulmancers usually capable of flying, moving mountains, and altering landscapes?
Yet, after such a significant improvement in her abilities, Alice still couldn't manage to fly.
