"So this is the platform that holds the magic array?" Greya didn't know much about runes, but she could tell that the runes on the crystal plate were a magic array made up of several runes.
"Yes." Angor nodded and asked Greya to try activating the magic array.
Greya followed Angor's instructions and reached out a finger to touch the center of the crystal plate. A small amount of energy flowed out from her fingertip.
As soon as the energy entered the crystal plate, the runes on it began to glow brightly. At the same time, their surroundings suddenly darkened, turning from day to night.
A huge, flowing magic array pattern appeared out of thin air under everyone's feet.
The world around them was completely dark. The only source of light was the magic array under their feet.
When they stood at the center of the magic array, they could hear all kinds of rustling noises in their ears. It sounded like wind blowing through the forest, clouds circling around the mountains, waves crashing on the shore, or thunderclaps.
It felt as if they had just walked through a narrow tunnel and arrived at a vast world. It was like listening to a piano song that praised fate. It was a feeling that came from the depths of one's heart.
While Greya and Shirley were still immersed in their thoughts, Angor spoke in a low voice, "So this is the 'Zeal of Fate'."
After a while, Shirley came back to her senses.
"I can feel a flame dancing in my chest." She put a hand on her chest and stared at Angor in disbelief.
"This flame represents your innate ability." Angor looked at Shirley. "Activate it with a corresponding Bloodstone, and the flame in your chest will release the most beautiful sparks in the song."
"So this is the effect of 'Zeal of Fate'." Greya chuckled. "Come to think of it, I haven't used my talent ability for a long time after becoming a wizard. In this magic array, it reminds me of the feeling of using my innate gift frequently when I was an apprentice. "
The effect of "Zeal of Fate" was to enhance one's talent ability. It wasn't fully activated yet, but it was enough to let people feel their own talent.
"What's your talent?" Angor asked curiously.
Greya chuckled. "It's a talent related to food. It doesn't really affect one's strength. However, I relied on this talent to catch the eye of Madam Candy, who was in charge of Candy House at that time, and she took me in as her student.
"What about you? What's your talent? Don't tell me you don't have talent. I don't believe you. "
Greya's question made Shirley, who was still trying to feel the fire in her chest, perk up her ears. Everyone knew about Angor's feats. He became a wizard from a mortal in only a few years. Everyone was wondering what kind of talent Angor had. She was also very curious about this.
"It's hard to tell how talented I am. At least, I don't feel anything strange inside this magic array. There were no flames leaping in his chest, nor was there a flash of inspiration from his talent. It was no different from usual. "
"Nothing happened in the 'Zeal of Fate'?"
"Yes." Greya didn't use Word of Truth, but she could tell that Angor wasn't lying.
"If what you said is true, there are only two possibilities. Either you don't have talent, or your talent is too special to be detected by the magic array. "Greya's eyes glinted." Which one do you think it is? "
"Is that important?" Angor asked again after a moment of silence.
Greya chuckled. "It's not important. I'm just curious. Since you don't want to talk about it, let's get back to business. "
Shalee was a little disappointed when Greya gave up. She already prepared herself for gossip.
Still, she believed that Angor must have a talent. Perhaps Greya was right. Either his talent was special, or it was beyond the "Melody of Fate".
Greya changed the topic. "Now that we have the 'Zeal of Fate' and the Demon Flower Spirit's Bloodstone, can we begin the experiment you mentioned?"
Greya looked curious. She didn't participate in Angor's experiment, so she wasn't sure if it would work. She also suspected that Angor was hiding something important from her. But since Angor didn't want to tell her, and Toby was on his side, there was nothing she could do.
Still, if Toby could experience the feeling of fighting against the Grudge Spirit in his dream, perhaps Toby would be able to deal with the Grudge Spirit after accumulating enough experience.
Greya didn't have any better ideas. She didn't know the details of Angor's experiment, but she believed that Angor wouldn't harm Toby, so she was willing to play dumb and cooperate with Angor's strange experiment.
"Yes, we can begin now." Angor nodded and looked at Toby.
Greya didn't train Toby too intensely while Angor was crafting. Instead, Toby enjoyed two days of leisure. But from today onward, Toby's comfortable days would come to an end.
Angor reached out a hand, and Toby flew to him and landed on his palm.
"Are you ready?" Angor stroked Toby's feathers and asked in a low voice.
Back in the dream wasteland, Angor already told Toby what he was going to do next. Toby knew that it would be very difficult, but as long as he could get through it, he would become stronger and no longer be threatened by the Grudge Spirit.
This was a path that Toby had to take.
Toby always complained about the harsh training, but he never avoided Greya's training. He knew that the training was meant to make him stronger.
Only by becoming stronger would he be able to protect the people most important to him.
With this in mind, Toby nodded without hesitation.
…
Soon, Toby's first attempt was made.
Greya was probably the one who had the easiest time in this trial. All she needed to do was to stand outside the range of the "Zeal of Fate" and wait for the experiment to end.
Next to her was Shayleigh. She only needed to do one thing. When Toby began to lose control of his emotions in the House of Heart, she would crush the Demon Flower Spirit Bloodstone given to her by Angor to strengthen her talent and suppress Toby's uncontrollable emotions.
Apart from Toby, Angor was the busiest one.
Since this was his first attempt, he wasn't sure if Shirley would be able to control Toby's emotions. Therefore, he had to keep switching back and forth between the dream wasteland and reality to keep an eye on Toby so that he could pull Toby out of the "Room of Heart" as soon as Shirley lost control of her emotions.
If this experiment worked, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble in the future. But at the very least, he couldn't do it so easily this time.
While Angor kept switching between reality and dream, Toby had already arrived at the space door inside the House of Heart. He was about to face his greatest enemy — the Grudge Spirit.
