Lily wrapped her wet hair in a towel and went back to the room.
Although she had previously accused the Prince of pursuing pleasure too much, she had to say that the bathroom was really … great. She enjoyed the cold well water under the shower, sweeping away the heat and stickiness brought by the scorching sun. After a busy day, her body felt as if it had been reborn.
However, after a carefree shower, she felt a little guilty. That day, I couldn't hold back my words, should I apologize to His Highness?
"Traitor!"
"What?" Lily lifted the hair stuck in front of her forehead.
"You obviously said that you don't believe in the ball theory, but now you are the first to evolve a new ability," Mystery Moon knelt on the bed, her upper body upright, and pointed her finger at her, "You are a big liar!"
Lily rolled her eyes, "I still don't believe it, everything is made of a ball … how is that possible?"
"But sister Nightingale said that your magic has condensed."
"It has nothing to do with the ball," she shrugged, climbed onto the bed and pressed Mystery Moon's hand down, "His Highness said that evolution doesn't necessarily have to accept the ball theory, as long as you can deeply understand your own ability, you can also make a qualitative change in your magic."
"Really?" Mystery Moon pouted.
"Anyway, that's what he said."
When Mystery Moon was in the Witch Cooperation Association, she was not valued, so she always lacked self-confidence, Lily thought. Unlike herself, food preservation was a very important ability for the Witch Cooperation Association, which was short of food. And she could understand the other's feelings, because after coming to Border Town, her own ability had become useless. She was also afraid that she would be kicked out of Border Town, but the result was the opposite of her worries. Although His Highness didn't give her any additional tasks, his attitude towards her wasn't much different from the other witches.
Maybe this was also the reason why Mystery Moon had become bolder and bolder, instead of being so reserved and self-abased. Her cowardice was mostly because Cara had never looked at her in the eye, and even forbade her to use her ability in the camp.
"Then …" Mystery Moon frowned, "How can I understand my own ability? His Highness said that the magnetic field can't be seen or touched, and the microscope is useless. "
"Don't ask me, I don't understand," Lily yawned. "In fact, I only know what my ability looks like. His Royal Highness is talking about cells, bacteria, fungi … I don't understand. He even said that he would write a textbook for me, "she said helplessly." Spare me, I don't even know how to read. "
"I also want to become more powerful." Mystery Moon rolled on the bed. "I also want to do more things for His Highness!"
Lily sighed. He was obviously older than her, but he acted younger than her. Really … "You can ask Sister Anna."
"Ask her?" The rolling stopped.
"Yes, aren't you afraid of wasting His Highness' time? Then ask Sister Anna," Lily said, "In the entire town, apart from His Highness Roland, she's the only one who knows the most."
"But Anna is also very busy. I heard that all the machines in the town are made by her," Mystery Moon hesitated.
"So, you can find some free time to ask her, such as after dinner, or ask her to heat up the bathwater, or simply invite her to take a bath together. Won't you have a lot of time to ask?" The little girl suggested.
"What you said … seems to make sense." Her eyes lit up.
"Then go to sleep, we have to get up early tomorrow." Lily untied the towel on her head, wiped it twice, and then fell on the pillow. "You go blow out the candles."
"Well, okay." She climbed to the end of the bed and blew out the candles. "Good night."
…
The next day, Lily didn't go to the kitchen or the wheat warehouse to practice her ability as usual. Instead, she sat at the table and began to learn how to use a microscope.
This was a new task assigned by His Highness. Before the textbook arrived, she had to fully understand the types and shapes of various cells and fungi, and record their differences. It didn't matter if she couldn't write, she could just draw.
Moreover, according to His Highness, Anna was still trying to make a microscope with a higher magnification. If she could achieve a magnification of four hundred times, she would be able to see even finer microorganisms.
From now on, the content of her practice would no longer be about keeping things fresh, but to try to diversify the uses of the mother and the clone. Regarding this point, Lily found it somewhat difficult to understand. Fortunately, His Highness had proposed several practice directions, such as ordering them to simulate the appearance of a single cell, or using her consciousness to instruct them to destroy or improve cells. Of course, this must be based on a sufficient understanding of all kinds of subtle life forms. Although Lily didn't know whether she could achieve that step, she still had to try.
Not to mention, exploring the unknown world itself was a very interesting thing.
In the evening, Mystery Moon came back with a depressed face.
"What's wrong?" She asked curiously, "Did sister Anna say anything?"
"She said a lot," Mystery Moon threw herself on the bed. "But I didn't understand a single word. She said that the magnetic field is everywhere, and that the compass can point the way because we are in a huge magnetic field. Does this mean that my ability is basically useless? Not to mention the principle of the magnetic field, that the moving charged ball and the magnetic force are interdependent, and that the magnetic field can also produce electric current … Sure enough, if I don't understand the ball theory, I can't make progress? "She muttered in a low voice," You say, am I too stupid? "
"A little bit," Lily said while holding her forehead.
"Traitor!"
…
Another sister of the Witch Union had gained a new ability, which made Vendy feel very happy.
Moreover, Lily's evolution made the other witches very enthusiastic about learning. After the end of tonight's class, there were still people constantly pestering Scroll with questions. Even Maggie, after hearing that learning could increase her ability, obediently squatted on the chandelier and listened to the lecture.
Except for one person.
When she returned to her room with the "Natural Science Theoretical Foundation", Nightingale was lying in front of the table, concentrating on organizing something.
Vendy knew that it definitely had nothing to do with learning.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
"Dividing the dried fish slices, do you want to eat?" Nightingale held a piece of dried fish in her mouth and said vaguely, "I just got it from the kitchen."
"So much?" Vendy was surprised to see the pile of golden grilled fish on the table, a rich honey aroma assailing her nose.
"Well, the chef saw that I come every day, so he simply roasted the rest of the fish. Anyway, this thing can be stored for a long time." She took out a small cloth bag and put the food inside. There were also five or six similar cloth bags on the table, each one bulging.
Vendy suddenly understood what she was doing, she was preparing dry food. Every time the Witch Cooperation Association was ready to leave the town, they had to divide the dry food according to the amount and put it into the cloth bag they carried with them. Along the way, no matter how hungry they were, they could only eat the prescribed amount, lest they ran out of food. Since coming to Border Town, with a stable supply of three meals, plus the frequent afternoon tea, the sisters no longer did this.
Of course, for Nightingale, rather than saying that they were preparing dry food, it would be more appropriate to say that they were preparing snacks.
"Don't you read?"
"Anyway, I don't understand, just listening to those theories and theorems makes me dizzy," Nightingale swallowed the dried fish and said with a smile, "Moreover, my ability is enough, it doesn't matter whether I evolve or not."
So that's how it is.
Compared to before, at this moment, Nightingale's eyes were sparkling, there was no reluctance or hesitation, only incomparably natural. It's impossible for a confused person to show such an expression, Vendy thought, she has found her goal.
When Nightingale understood the path she wanted to take, she would show her firm side. It was like this when she left her noble family, it was like this when she faced Cara, and it was the same now.
