The library they entered could even fight the libraries of her past world. Walls covered up to ten-meter high in the hall as big a couple football fields. In mid of the library stood table and few comfortable chairs that were prepared as it seems for all of them. Each chair had a name on it.Of course, Kendra"s and Isaa"s chairs were biggest and seemed as well most comfortable. Kendra already imagined herself sitting in that chair in all kind of comfortable positions. She touched the material as it was comfortable. She slowly sat down and was feeling like sitting on her cloud.
Whatever they used to make these chairs she doesn"t care. They are perfect for reading comfortably. She saw everyone sitting with huge smiles on their chairs and she knew everyone felt comfortable. They all had tables in front of them and on the paper, ink, and feathers.
Kendra went to the shelves they put behind the group of chairs and tables. Unfortunately, Isaa still needs to learn more words and couldn"t read fluently and others were not high enough with their powers to be able. So she had to do it. Isaa, Ada and Cian are copying the book she wrote before about water powers.
She needed a book of light and a book of fire. She needs to see what kind of powers Thalis has. And there are the girls, she still hoped they could fully trust her and tell her the truth. Not being able to control people is quite a lie. What about those people on the farm or the people they traveled with? She scrunched her face. Let"s hope they will behave, if not she won"t care that they are children.
Tyra could see sharp look coming at them from Kendra"s corner but when she raised her eyes she could see only Kendra looking at them as it seems empty shelves. She took out something out of shelves even those she couldn"t see what it was. She felt cold. Kendra"s level was so high that she could read special books, and she couldn"t even see what books she took out.
Should she trust her and tell her whole truth? She looked at Kendra with a smile and saw her just nodding at her as she sat down at the biggest chair. Kendra put something on the table and looked at her.
""I will read from these books and you write down. Later we will change some stuff. At first, you will learn these and then later I will read more for you. Now write."" said Kendra while opening the invisible book.
""Human mind is a special place. It has hundreds of layers of consciousness. For a cultivator with light energy, it"s easy to enter the layers." She looks at Tyra and coldly asked: " Is that true?"
Tyra unconsciously nodded but then suddenly looked at Kendra and saw a cold expression. Kendra ignored it and continued to read.
"Every layer of consciousness hold one emotion. And every emotion has its dark and light side. The winner of the constant fight between the light and darkness make the human soul. The light user can use its ability only to heal the light part and with that heal the human soul and body. If light user uses its power to harm someone"s mind it could deplete the sea of powers and could permanently cripple his ability turning into a normal human being."
Kendra continued to read about the basic stuff that she explained but in the book, there were too complicated. She still read them one after another explaining Tyra all the pictures.
Luckily the book has as well a bunch of pictures about so it was fast to read and explain. She put the book back to the shelf and saw Thalis coming in.
She waved at him and went to the bookcase. When he was near she asked him quietly. " What powers do you have" As she didn"t ask about just one he got surprised and looked at her. She calmly looked back.
"I can sense people with multiple powers but can"t see what powers they have and how strong they are. Just tell me so I can read the book for you."
He shook his head. "Actually last night after I used your way of cultivating, I broke trough second boundary and can see the books. But I still will tell you the powers. I have light, metal and lightning powers. But please let them know only about metal and lightning. Not even my subordinates know about my light ability. When you read to Tyra I was listening. And I will continue to listen and read. Luckily I learn fast so I will read as many of these light books before she hits the second boundary."
Kendra nodded and looked at Tyra that was still frozen stiff from getting told about the possibility of depletion of her sea of powers and complete loss of abilities.
She used it on those people to come here and then on the workers as well if she used it one more time to enter the consciousness she would become just commoner.
She started s.h.i.+vering. If there was no Kendra what would have happened. Ada saw her sister getting pale and furrowed brows. It seems there is something that worried her into that state. He looked at her and turned to the doors. Tyra followed her still shaking.
Servants stood in front of the door and looked at them smilingly. " His may we help you?"
Ada smiled back." Could you please show us the toilet or place where we could relieve ourselves. "
The servant showed with hand to follow her and not far from the library was a private room. She opened the door with a smile and stepped aside to let them pa.s.s."I will wait here, just in case you need something.""
Ada nodded and as soon the doors closed her face turned cold. She looked at her sister that started shaking. She looked around the beautiful room but the only thing that came into her eyes were the chairs that stood neat wall. She took Tyra"s hand and sat her on the chair.
"What is going on? Please, you have to be strong or our mission might fail. You know that those people hold our parents if you don"t want them to die to pull your heart together." she said while patting her back.
Tyra nodded and s.h.i.+vers started subduing. She knew how much was on stake. They are already inside the castle. The next thing is to get closer to the Lord but somehow when Kendra is around her ability doesn"t work.
""From one side its good we met Kendra and learned how to cultivate but when she is around I can"t control the Lord. We need to work faster. They will enter the city soon. If we don"t have him in our hand our whole tribe will be extinguished. I can"t let that happened. " she said with resolve and stood up.
They turned around and got shocked. Kendra, Xara, and Lord Ca.s.sian stood there. They didn"t even hear them entering the room. Kendra smirked and waved her hand. Suddenly they saw that everything was an illusion. Lilly came forward growling at them.
She belonged to the original dragons and as soon she hit the second boundary her basic skill got released. The illusion.
They actually stood still in the library and everyone looked at them. Tyra stepped back but Ada stepped in front of her sister. She narrowed her eyes and smiled evilly. "Whoever tries to hurt my sister will have to go through me."
Suddenly she was in the air. Water snake held her in her clutches as Isaa came forward. "We don"t want to hurt any of you two. Actually, I wanted to teach you the cloud method and let you travel with us around the world. But now I can"t anymore."
She sighed and slowly let her down to the floor. "We will help you two to rescue your parents and tribe but Kendra will destroy your ability to control the human mind. It will be forever erased from everyone from your tribe."
Ada looked at Kendra and understood why Tyra was horrified. She tried to concentrate at Isaa but it was all empty and blank. Kendra came closer and slapped her head. "Stupid
I did that to the two of you already at the farm. You didn"t use it on us, so you didn"t notice. If you did try, I would have killed you."
Kendra then pinched her cheeks with both hands and smiled evilly. " But you need to be punished for trying it out on my little sister."
She pinched and squeezed her face this it was all red and bruised. Ada pressed her lips together and let it happened not even realizing a sound. Kendra took a look at her and poked her head. "Stubborn and stupid, but cute tho. Too bad I am not into you. Tyra, I left your ability to heal. But you will never be able to enter exodus as I killed your ability to control humans. You will be able to go up to maybe sixth or seventh stage. Ada, your water ability has nothing to do with brain control. So you would be able to cultivate high. But how high it will be your own work. We will give you a temporary residence until your family arrives. After the school opens you two will be given the rooms by your strength."
She smiled at Ada and Tyra and turned around."Thalis, you need to help me with something. Isaa and Cian will stay here and learn a new ability. Cian, learn water snake. It will be helpful for you. "
Xara patted Ada"s head and smiled at Tyra." Kendra is worried that your ability might hurt you and your tribe. She did that only to protect you. It"s better this way."
She waved her hand and two servant girls took the sisters to their rooms that were ready since last night. Kendra was thinking about leaving them here already the night before but choose to teach them how to cultivate at least.
If they were the honest night before and didn"t plan to hurt Lord Ca.s.sian she might have given them so much, but their words clearly hurt her feelings. The servants explained to them as they let them into a simple room with comfortable beds.
One of the servants on the end of her explanations sighed." If you didn"t try to harm the Lord everything would be different. Kendra is disappointed that you didn"t trust her as much she did trust you. To be a friend of someone like Kendra would be a great honor to any one of us. You grew away your only chance. Anyway. This is your room. You have a side room with a bathroom and lavatory if you need it. For food, you need to go down and eat with all of us. We will come later and show you away. Don"t wander the castle. If soldiers find you anywhere else except the room or dining room they might just throw you into the dungeon. And that is no place to be. Trust me."
The servant girls went out the door and slightly bowed towards them and then closed the doors. They didn"t lock the rooms or anything. Next to beds stood the copy of the cultivation books Kendra prepared beforehand. They looked stunned at each other and sat down to read. They are anyway captured and all they could do is cultivate.
But when they used the way the Kendra taught them they could see that their speed of cultivation slowed down. It seems that they can cultivate fast only when she is around.
Ada looked at Tyra and closed her eyes. It seems her sister really did something wrong last night. "What happened actually to make her so disappointed?" she asked
Tyra looked at her with a guilty face. " When we met I tried multiple times to attack her brain and take control of her. Actually, that is the reason I almost depleted all my powers. I felt faint before we left the farm and hoped to gain her trust when I healed that poisoned man."
Ada looked at her with big eyes. " You really did that. But she was not mean or pushy. At that time I really wanted her to be our friend. Why did you do that?"
Tyra sighed. "I was jealous. I still am actually. Kendra has such power, people that listen to her orders and even strong power. Why can"t I have it?" greed pa.s.sed her eyes." That person told us he can give us anything we want as long we control the Lord. Maybe I should try it differently. He and that woman are still not married maybe I could..."
Ada listened to what her sister sprout out and hit her with a water ball to clear her head. But unfortunately, the only thing that happened is that Tyra stopped talking and turned away from her. Ada shook her head. Tyra was always hotheaded.
"I don"t care what you plan. But knowing Kendra and the Lord they will help our tribe. If you try something that could hurt our parents or tribe I will become your enemy." Said Ada while she stood next Tyra"s bed.
Tyra snorted. " You are not even my real sister. If the tribe didn"t push you into our household to raise you, do you think you could even survive? You ate the reason why my parents don"t love me anymore and are always on your side. I hope that we won"t be in the same room at the school. I hate breathing the same air that you do.
Ada sighed." If that is your wish..." she turned around and started concentrating. She used Kendra"s way of cultivation. She was actually really grateful to Kendra. If she could save her tribe and parents, that would be the best.
Tyra from another side if room smirked and closed eyes while imagining how she became Lady of the house and ordered those incompetent servants. She got herself into such taught that she lost her connection to reality. Her eyes opened as she has a wide smile. She will definitely succeed, so she taught.
The servants stood in front of the doors as they planned to pick them up for lunch, but hesitated." I will take them to the dining hall, you go find Kendra, her Ladys.h.i.+p or the Lord. Any of them and tell them what we heard. That girl seems to have problems with her head."
The other girl nodded and silently run.
Kendra, on the other hand, stood in Lord"s office with Thalis, Xara and Lord Ca.s.sian.
" How did you do it?" asked Lord Ca.s.sian. Kendra shook her head and pointed at Lilly. "How is it even possible to control someone"s brain. It"s an illusion. We just depleted their powers and will do it again. Till their parents don"t come. If they try something weird we must definitely kill them all. If they can control someone"s brain, early or layer they will try to harm the King and the kingdom. But we first need to see what will really happen." she just finished talking about the plans for the school as there was a knock on the door.
"Enter" called the Lord. The door opened and the servant that was serving the two sisters came in and reported the happenings in the room.
Everyone was stunned by the stupidity of that girl and all the eyes turned to Lord Ca.s.sian that had furious expression. "Do I look like someone who is easy to control? She dares?"
Xara patted his hand to calm him down. "Let"s see what is actually behind the whole story. We need to be careful more and more."
He breathed deep in as his eyes turned icy. He smiled coldly. " Let them come. It seems they forgot all who I am and how dangerous I can become. "
He was a cute, foolish, silly, lovable, kind and funny man around people he loved but towards his enemies... His smile turned brighter as he looked through the window.
Kendra knew that whoever makes him angry ends up dead. She as well looked through the window. Father, mother, Isaa...I will protect you, let them come...
