Staring at the leather notebook in her hands, a surprised expression couldn't help but appear on Beatrice's face.

Quickly, the scene that had just happened a few moments ago flashed through Beatrice's mind, causing her to once again stare at the soul inside of the notebook with a gaping mouth.

Without any warning, Beatrice suddenly dropped the notebook in her hands as she suddenly felt a shock in her spirit.

"No peeking," Selena's voice, coming out straight from the notebook now sitting on the ground.

"She really placed a piece of her soul inside of the notebook," mumbled Beatrice, still feeling shocked at the enormous difference between her and her teacher.

As she thought about how she had almost destroyed a soul by trying to read it's memories not long ago, and how her teacher could posibly split her soul into multiple pieces, a somewhat shameful expression appeared on Beatrice's face, replacing her shock.

After a few moments, Beatrice suddenly bent down, picking up the notebook from the ground, no longer daring to stare at the soul inside of it.

Beatrice then made sure that the notebook had no damage done to it before quickly moving toward her desk, and sitting down as she began writing things down into the Information cube.

Not long after that, Guinevere walked into the room, holding a cup of tea in her hands, causing Beatrice to raise her head, and stare at her.

Looking at Guinevere's cute face, Beatrice couldn't help but slightly smile, as she then stretched out her hand towards the cup of tea, taking it into her hand.

"You can bring me another cup in a few hours, other than that you are free to do whatever you want," said Beatrice as she turned her attention back to the information cube, as she quickly took it apart, with far more dexterity than her previous self from two weeks ago.

After over two weeks of practice, Beatrice had become much more confident in handling the Information cube.

Unlike usual, Beatrice did not turn her attention to the Logic Core of the information cube, but rather, she focused on the mana checker, wanting to see if she could make some slight modifications to it.

Two weeks later,

As Beatrice stared at the few ant eggs in front of her, a small smile couldn't help but appear on her face, causing her to suddenly type something into the Information cube.

"Now that I've got the Earth Ant Egg, I can finally begin moving," mumbled Beatrice as she suddenly cast the ant control spell on the little bugs.

Although the ant had more resistance than the normal ants, whilst they were still in their egg, they could not give Beatrice a challenge, as she quickly took control of them

Over the past two weeks, nothing major really happened, as Beatrice had already progressed past the stage where such a short amount of time could give her much progress, as most of her research had borne fruit.

As for how Beatrice moved on after obtaining the fruit, this took much more time to figure out.

Of course, Beatrice's progress in refining mana had not stopped in the slightest, as she continued refining every day, slowly but surely accumulating more and more mana.

After making sure that the Ant Egg was fine, Beatrice then walked out of the room, some disappointment clearly visible on her face.

Although Beatrice knew that expecting ants which had not even hatched from their eggs to do something was unreasonable, she still felt some disappointment.

Quickly, Beatrice walked into her room, where Guinivere was packing up a bag.

"Have you made sure that nothing is missing?" asked Beatrice as she looked at the bag in the hands of the little girl, causing the latter to nod.

"Yes mistress, everything is in order, you can rest assured, I have packed everything for your journey," said Guinevere as she closed the bag before getting up from her seat.

After Beatrice mastered the use of the Information Cube, the amount of luggage that she needed to keep around abruptly decreased, as she replaced the many large notebooks previously in her collection with the light and convenient cube.

Hearing this, a faint smile couldn't help but appear on Beatrice's face.

"That's good," mumbled Beatrice as she stretched forward, grabbed the bag, and weighed it in her hands.

Although Beatrice slightly neglected her knight training, rather desiring to focus on other things, as she progressed as a mage, not only did her body not decrease in strength, but she also became more and more powerful.

Perhaps sometime later, Beatrice could even become a Royal Knight without doing anything, of course, that could only happen if Beatrice stayed in the same realm as Knights.

"Have you read the list I have given you?" asked Beatrice as she stared at Guinevere, causing the latter to suddenly gulp.

"Don't worry mistress, I have read it, I will take care of everything on my own in your absence," said the young Guinvere, causing Beatrice to faintly smile.

"That's good," mumbled Beatrice as she suddenly walked up to her desk and picked up a few objects, walking out of her room not long after that.

...

Sometime later, in a deep swamp hidden in a corner of the world,

Feeling the weird smell lingering in the air of the swamp her teacher's home resided in, Beatrice couldn't help but shake her head.

"Making your home in such a place is really too inconvenient," mumbled Beatrice as she suddenly began moving at a low speed.

At first, Beatrice was walking, but as time passed, Beatrice began slowly but surely walking faster and faster, warming up her legs as she eventually began running, her legs occasionally going over water as she used her mana to support herself on it.

After a few moments, Beatrice seemingly turned into a dark shadow, as she her speed increased more and more as thoughts of her home filled her mind.

Although Beatrice enjoyed practicing magic very much, as such, if asked the question, Beatrice would choose to practice magic one hundred times out of a hundred, but since she could do both, Beatrice had no reason not to go back home.

As the thought of arriving back at her own home appeared in Beatrice's mind, a faint smile couldn't help but appear on her face.
