Looking at back at her parents, who were standing on a balcony, staring at her, Beatrice couldn't help but faintly smile as she waved her hand.
A few moments later, under the rather sad eyes of her parent's, Beatrice began walking away, as she slowly began picking up speed.
In the last four days she had spent in the Lyon Kingdom, Beatrice had completely wrapped up her experiments.
As she did not have much time, and could not accomplish anything major, for the first three days, Beatrice simply practised some basic things, and didn't try to learn anything new.
From erasing memories, to inserting new ones, to creating memories and influencing people using their souls, in those three days Beatrice practised all of those things.
After doing so, and using all of her remaining experimental subjects, on the last day, Beatrice had cleaned up the old estate, and removed any traces of her activity there.
From the more obvious things like cleaning up any remaining bodies, and all the tools that she had used.
To less obvious things, like removing all the Torment which had accumulated in the walls of the estate from her stay in it.
Although Beatrice did not believe there was anyone on this island who could use that torment to track her, she decided to still be careful, after all, in the future, her parents might decide to use the old estate for something else.
After all, Beatrice did not want anything to happen to her parents because of her experiments.
...
Inside an unknown location,
"Mistress, the spatial stability is currently is 87.6 percent, up from 84.3," said Ighor as he looked at Selena, who was sitting down on a desk, tinkering with something.
"That's much better than I expected, especially after so many years have passed, it looks as though our work hasn't been in vain," mumbled Selena before looking at Ighor.
"Even so, we need to get to work, as long as we can get the stability up to over 90 percent, the production of elemental energy should start up again," mumbled Selena as she tapped her fingers on the desk, deep in thought.
Hearing this, Ighor faintly nodded, and was just about to leave, when suddenly, a small crystal appeared in front of him.
"Ighor, go back to my hideout and use this key, back there, I have kept some captured mortals with Space Affinity, they could be useful in aiding us," said Selena before waving her hand.
"Understood."
As she watched Ighor leave the room, Selena couldn't help but fall into thought.
"It would be so much better If I could bring the Tower here, but If I were to do that, those guys would surely notice this place," mumbled Selena as she shook her head.
Unbeknownst to Beatrice, and everyone else other than herself, Selena's hideout was actually an underground Mage Tower from the distant past, which she had discovered and repaired.
Although the tower was being powered by the elemental energy flowing within the ground, if Selena desired to, she could bring it over here.
Sadly though, as soon as Selena did that, this place would be found out by the Magic Council, who would not want Selena to get her hands on a Flying City, and would do nearly everything to stop it.
In truth, if this was the ancient past, Selena would not have been able to have a Mage Tower whilst being only an Official Mage.
Based on some records she had found in the tower, back then, Mage Towers represented Archmages, whilst Flying Cities were under the control of Legendary Mages.
Sadly though, with the decline in Elemental Energy after that ancient war, the number of rare materials and resources quickly dwindled, preventing Archmages from creating Mage Towers.
"Since I'm an Archmage, I should be able to take control of the city, as this one is not powered by a god," mumbled Selena as she got up from her desk.
...
A few moments later, Selena walked out of the house that she was currently inhabiting in the city, and began walking down a large road.
After only a few moments of walking, Selena moved to the left, and began walking on a side road, before reaching a certain house, that was hidden in a certain corner of the city.
Only a moment later, Selena opened the door to the house and walked inside.
...
Looking at the boundless world in front of her, a faint smile appeared on Selena's face.
Compared to a few months ago, when she had first discovered the Flying City, Selena could feel that the spatial stability of this world had increased.
"With the help of those space mages, I should be able to get the spatial stability of this world over 90 percent in about a year," mumbled Selena as she sat down on a rock.
Of course, with her current resources and power, getting the spatial stability up to 100 percent was impossible, and it would remain impossible up until Selena became a Legendary Mage.
...
Unaware of the things that her teacher was doing at the moment, currently, Beatrice was currently on a ship, staring at the peaceful ocean around herself.
It seemed as though Beatrice had been quite lucky in regard to sea travel, as both when she went to Golwall Island, and when she left it, she encountered no bad weather.
Of course, when she first began travelling to the island, Beatrice had encountered some rain, but compared to the fierce storms that can sometimes plague this place, this was nothing to worry about.
...
One day later,
After around one day of ship travel, Beatrice could now see her destination, Nanrath Island, in the distance.
"I really did have some good luck," mumbled Beatrice as she looked behind her at the dark storm clouds that were gathering.
Even on the ship that Beatrice was travelling on, which was not near the centre of the storm, one could feel the terrifying storm that was quickly approaching.
Thankfully though, Beatrice was now extremely close to Nanrath Island, and didn't have to worry about the storm.
