Sabina peered her head up from her book to look around confused. "Hey, where is everyone?"
"Probably still in one of the private potions room." Melissa answered while tutoring. "Amaryllis is busy with something. Nathaniel, Theseus and probably Violet decided to come visit her."
"But they wouldn't take this long right? I figured they might be training by now. The sun is already down and the training hall is empty." She noted.
Rufus and Leon who are studying look up upon hearing that but upon seeing Melissa's intense stare, they continued studying.
"What on earth are they up to?" Leon groaned. "They must be having a better time than us."
Rufus's expression shows that he shares the same sentiment.
"What the hell are they up to?" Rufus murmured to himself.

It took a while to finish transcribing the scriptures. Eight pages on both sides worth of words in three written languages.
"Thanks guys." Amy says satisfied after checking the scriptures for any mistakes.
"Writing in Infernus is not easy." Nathaniel complained as he twirls his sore wrist.
"Same with Jophiel." Viola agrees, "No wonder you agree to our help so quickly."
"At least Amaryllis helps you both out with sharing the work." Theseus says while stretching his fingers. "I'm the one who has to write two pages of Silvia on both sides alone."
"Don't complain about that." Nathaniel shot back, "Silvia is the easiest to write."
"You guys can go now. I promise to pay you back!" Amy says happily.
Seeing Amy being so happy, Theseus decides to immediately say his price. "Can I copy all your homework?"
Amy nodded in happiness, still living her own world while cleaning the room.
"Thank you!"
In response, Viola didn't looked pleased and Nathaniel shook his head in disappointment.
After she finished packing, she noticed the other two didn't say anything. "What about you two?"
"I guess I would like your opinion about something." Nathaniel murmured, "I am still working on finding a way to preserve my magic. I need some help with that."
"Sure," she answered.
Viola shrugged. "I would like some more help in my spell casting. I always have trouble with current flows."
Amy stared at her in surprise. Viola is best in spell casting than most but she nodded and heads out the door with her arms full.
The rest of the fairy blood is now in a smaller container that she made using the huge jar. She made sure to get every drop because if left alone, it will be extremely dangerous. Amy initially thought of disposing of it but stopped herself from doing so. This blood has many uses that the magic community has not yet discover. It will be wise to keep it in the future.
"Amaryllis!" She looked to see Selim and Rana heading towards her. Rana is a shy slumpy girl who always has her head down wherever she goes but Amy could see that if she straightens her back, she is actually quite tall.
Rana is a girl that Selim recently befriended. She is quite introverted and rarely speaks so she communicates nonverbally through body language which only Selim can understand.
"Sorry!" Amy says, "There's something I have to do tonight!" She finishes apologetically and quickly heads to the circle room where she can finally get this blood ritual done.

"Well that is interesting." Theseus said while looking around the room.
"What are you doing?" Nathaniel disapprovingly asked.
"That ink looks so beautiful. I have never see such a translucent liquid and the ink looks pretty on paper."
Viola shrugged. "Amy likes to make interesting things without using magic. One time, she made a contraption that could move by itself."
"Your sister is quite the inventor." Theseus beamed.
"Don't bother." Viola said, "They are all for her own personal use and she keeps it secret. Most of the stuff she makes that are useful are only to help with the servant work. She wouldn't even tell me."
Nathaniel had a sudden thought. The substance is not ink. It is blood but it felt like ink. Whatever she is making, he can't help feeling suspicious. He trusts Amaryllis's character, but he can't help but wonder if she is going to get herself into trouble.

It was nighttime. Amy finished tracing the outline of her magic circle which she wasted all the blood on. The scriptures are in its place, circling the magic circle. She opened her mouth to recite the words.
To the Great Silvanus, the protector of the woods
The blood and the Silvia scriptures glowed an emerald green.
I present my life so that I would find my destiny.
Amy looked at the Silvia scriptures to see that the words disappeared. It worked. Then she spoke in a different language.
To the Great Inferno, the flame that shines brightest
The circle and the Infernus scriptures began glowing scarlet.
I present my vices so that I would be led a virtuous path.
Amy then watched as the Infernus scriptures disappeared form the paper. Then she spoke the final language; the hardest of the three.
To the Great Jophiel, the wise
The circle and the final scriptures started glowing white.
I present my vows so that I would walk the life of a sage.
The scriptures all disappeared from the pages.
She then waited for the circle to change color again. This time the script all appeared in the circle.
May your blessings guide me well.
She finished that one in her original language.
The circle glowed brightly and illuminated the room. This is it. Hecate is finally complete.

For the past few hours, Viola decided to trail Amy and decided to wait for her. She spent her time practicing with her wand. Then she saw a bright light coming out of the window. She is close to panicking upon seeing it. This light is far different than when they use their purification ability so she immediately could tell something happened.
"Amy!"
Fearing an accident, she tried to open the door but it was locked. She then grabbed her wand, pointed at the door handle and yelled, "Apire!"
The lock clicked and she flung it wide open.
But instead of seeing either damages, or worse, a bloody mess, Amy was just standing in the middle of the room staring at Viola with a blank expression.
"Oh? What's up?"
