"I hadn't noticed this before, but now that I'm closer to you... are you unconsciously drawing mana from the atmosphere?" Seraphina asked, her curiosity evident. "Is that a benefit of having an Ethereal Pathway?"
Elion paused to consider her question before replying, "It seems so. I didn't realize it at first, but if this continues, I could break through to the mid Soul-Strengthening Realm within three years, even without consciously absorbing mana."
Seraphina raised an eyebrow in surprise, a playful smile forming on her lips. "Incredible. Even if you decide to slack off from now on, you're destined to be a powerhouse in the future. Honestly, I'm a little envious," she teased.
Elion laughed softly. "The princess of Alastor, envious of me? I'm not sure if I should be flattered or concerned."
Seraphina chuckled softly before shifting the conversation. "So, what's your plan for the rest of the vacation? We still have two weeks left."
