Life After Prison

Many looked on enviously at the colossal flying sword. When they thought of how easily the Gregories‘ had been killed just a few
days ago, their impulses were promptly quelled. While such a treasure was undoubtedly very desirable, anyone who wished to
seize it would need to be stronger than its owner.
our flying sword is truly remarkable. It can expand to such a colossal size in addition to maintaining such an impressive speed. I
never imagined I’d have the opportunity to ride something like this. It’s an anecdote I’ll brag about for lifetimes to come,” the
second elder of Sus Hall remarked while standing on it
Severin smiled wryly and replied. “It can travel at a rather decent speed, but its increased size makes it heavier. This, in turn,
required more spiritual energy and mental energy, particularly when there’s a sizable number of people riding it.”
“Won’t we need to take plenty of breaks along the way then?” Diane asked concernedly.
Severin smiled and assured her, “Not necessarily. As long as we follow the same approach we used when we came here, I can
manage the increased energy consumption without issue. A bit of rest on a deserted island during the night would do just fine.”
Diane nodded in understanding
Three days later, Severin and his companions arrived back in. Larry, Rachel, and others were already waiting outside South
County Mansion.
When Luke and his group arrived, Severin had everyone introduce themselves to the others. He then instructed Larry and the
others to arrange some accommodation for Luke’s party.
“Mom! Dad! You’re finally back!” Selene exclaimed with excitement. She rushed over and immediately threw herself into her
parents‘ arms.
“You’ve made a lot of progress, Selene! You’re now a level seven profound master,” Diane praised as she discerned Selene’s
attainment. “Was my assessment correct this time?” she then asked
Severin.
Severin nodded in affirmation. “Very much so. It appears you’ve grown incredibly skilled in utilizing the Mind’s Eye technique.
Selene has reached the attainment of a level seven profound master. She secured this breakthrough during our absence, which
shows just how remarkable her

Diane felt elated. That’s fantastic! My mastery of the Mind’s Eye technique has improved so much compared to before.”
“Really? Let me give it a try too!” Sheila immediately attempted to assess her own proficiency. Her expression soon sank as she
said, “Looks like I’ll need further practice. My reading gives Selene’s attainment as being that of a level nine profound master.”
Severin offered a subtle smile and reassured her. “The difference isn’t that great, so that’s an indication of good progress on your
part. Your mastery of the Mind’s Eye technique will improve further, and when that happens, your assessments of others
attainments won’t be that far off anymore.”
Sofia stood to one side and remarked with a pout, “You Te already far better than I am. I’m only at the level of a grandmaster
when it comes to this technique. There’s still much for me to catch up to all of you.” As soon as she said that, she immediately
realized that she had misspoken.
Sheila promptly caught on and exclaimed, “When did you learn the Mind’s Eye technique?”
Diane, too, was taken aback for a moment. However, she soon covered her mouth and giggled. ”
Looks like you couldn’t resist the allure of it.”
Sofia realized her secret had been revealed and smiled awkwardly. “Well, both of you learned it already anyway, so I thought I
should follow suit too. I can’t be the only one who never learned it,
right?”
“We have only four months left. I asked Rachel and the others, but they did not have any news yet about Lepus Hall and Simia
Hall. These are the only two halls remaining. I’m not sure if we’ll be
able to find them,” Diane said.
