Chapter 135
The clone began another sweep of the formation as her true self considered all the options before her. She was halfway through another sweep when she froze, feeling the power and much more powerful mind of her true self descend. Usually, her aura would fill up any room she descended into. This time, however, she was doing all she could to restrain it. She didn't want to taint any of the insights she could glean from the aura of the law of desire. It was a gamble, but eons of life had made one thing clear to her, power was not gained in safety. If you wish to be safe, then give up any ambitions of power. That option wasn't open for her. She hadn't risen to the heights that she had by playing it safe and she wasn't about to start now. Given her past experiences, there was an almost ninety percent chance that one of them would betray the other and they'd end up as mortal enemies. She was already preparing herself for that day. But until it came, she planned to make full use of this oppo

Not surprisingly, his question was met with silence. Despite her displeasure, even Olivia seemed to recognize the fact that the healer was the most powerful member of their group. Short of bringing Morpheus or her true self into the fight, they would be signing up for a beating if not worse if they decided to take on the healer. "You could refuse to help push her mana to the third tier," Olivia finally found her voice after a pause. "And she could refuse to guide me through the use of the Maelstrom ascension manual," Greg countered. "Then you could refuse to give her the layers of the Maelstrom ascension manual that follow the first," Olivia immediately shot back, her tone unyielding. "And I will have lost a close friend," Greg answered calmly without missing a beat. Olivia had opened her mouth to raise some counterpoint. She, however, came up short, not having expected Greg to turn the discussion away from bargaining chips to a more sentimental direction. "If I manage to climb

The Arcana Institute is perfect for you, a beginner on the road of magic. But for me, it's an excuse. There is no reason for me to be at the institute other than as a way of staying close to you. And that... that scares me Roka. I feel like I am betraying myself! That by not pursuing vengeance with everything I have, I'm quietly accepting what happened to me. That just like my friends turned their backs on me, I am turning my back on myself," she gave voice to her fears and doubts. "And that fear is what the aura from the law of desire latched on to. It made you want to be rid of the source of the uncertainty," Greg said, connecting the dots as to where the desire to kill him stemmed from. The healer quietly nodded clear shame in her gaze at the confession. "You're not wrong," Greg said much to his teacher's surprise. "I've always known that we would eventually have to part ways. I am walking this path for the first time whereas you are retracing your steps back to where you were. Ev

The air at the table they were at immediately turned frigid. Just a second ago, everything had been calm, even cordial, and now, Greg found himself tensing up, ready for a fight. From the corner of his eyes, he could see the two curved blades that had appeared in Olivia's hands. He didn't have to turn to his familiar to feel the cold killing intent coming off her in waves. Morpheus, who had thus far been completely uninterested in their reunion also seemed to be jolted by the comment as Greg could now feel the deity's attention turn to the healer across from him. The table transformed into a room full of propane, even a single spark would be enough to set the situation off.In the end, Greg let out a sigh as he let the tension drain out of him and he leaned back on his chair in a relaxed manner. A brow arched on the healer's face as she noted the change in his demeanor. "What? You think me incapable of harming you?" She asked, keeping her voice level even though Olivia seemed ready to

"Do you have any idea how valuable the information you've just given me is?" The silence that had engulfed the table for the past ten minutes was broken as the healer finally found her voice once more.A warm smile crossed Greg's lips. "Valuable enough that I had to share it with you," he replied. The smile straightened a bit as Greg remembered something else. "It's also very dangerous," he warned, unable to help the weight in his tone of voice. "According to Morpheus, the vast majority of beings, human or otherwise, live and die in the life order tier they were born in. Rising to the demi tier the correct way is infinitely harder than doing it the way all other mages have been doing it. It might even be arrogant of either one of us to believe ourselves capable of it," he voiced the warning Morpheus had given him about how hard the path ahead would be.An amused smile crossed his teacher's face as she replied. "If humility were the price for power, then no mage would ever be able to a

A sigh left Greg, enraptured by the almost picturesque beauty of the view before him. The white sands of the beach stretched on for miles making it easy to see from the airship. Even from here, he could see rice-grain-sized figures moving about on the beach, probably enjoying a relaxing day at the beach. Contrasted to the beach that looked like it had popped out of a photo, was the vast blue ocean. Greg caught sight of a few figures moving slowly in the water. He couldn't help but the awe and a bit of dread looking at the behemoths. While the humans looked like little more than ants from this distance, the creatures in the water, were about the size of a housecat. Greg dreaded to imagine what their size would be from up close. Greg's gaze turned in the direction of the beach once more and he couldn't help but smile at the fact that they were moving toward it and not away. Apparently, they had been sailing above the waters for the past three months as they crossed from the continent
