Elemental Energy
Looking at the boundless ocean below her, even Beatrice's calm mind slightly shook.
In every direction, no matter where she looked all Beatrice saw was water and more water, the last time Beatrice had seen even a bit of land was half a month ago, when she managed to spot a tiny uninhabited island in the distance while gazing at the sea.
After gazing at the sea for a while, Beatrice turned her eyes to the two people next to her as well.
"Couldn't you have dragged someone else here? I already told I don't like the ocean," said prince James as he looked at Susan, compared to a month ago, James seemed to find it much less necessary to hide his emotion's as his true personality shines through.
"I don't know many people on the ship, and I already talked with everyone I know, only you and Beatrice are left, don't you feel anything when looking at the beautiful ocean surrounding us," asked Susan, who seemed like she had gained new life when above the ocean.
"I feel only frustration, I can't wait until we get to land," said James as he shook his head and managed to make the slightly sick look on his face disappear.
Suddenly, Beatrice turned towards the two of them and smiled.
"You need to go inside, It's almost dark," said Beatrice as she noticed that the sun was almost at the equator, causing the color of Susan's face to visibly change.
"Yea, let's go," said Susan as she quickly began walking to her room while urging the other two along as well.
Even though not scared, unlike Susan, the two of them quickly moved to their respective rooms, as they had already learned that being active on a ship created by the Shadow Monastery at night was not a good idea from the first night they came here.
Susan remembered the screams one of the teens made when his body was being healed by the mage, she let out a shudder, feeling something like that was not something Susan even entertained of doing, as such, when even a hint of Darkness approached, she fled to her room, where she knew she was safe.
As the mages did not tell the teens any information, they did not know what this 'Shadow Monastery' that made the ship was, but they did not want anything to do with it, of course, based on the way the mages looked and were dressed some of them already had some ideas.
Looking at the piece of paper on her desk, Beatrice wanted to tear her hair out, but as she slowly took a deep breath, she only crumpled up the piece of paper and threw it at her wall.
"There's no preparations I can do," mumbled Beatrice as she looked at another blank piece of paper on her desk.
At first, as to gain a foothold in Mage school, Beatrice wanted to gain an underling, and thus began the plan of slowly making Susan into one, but once she managed to learn that the magic schools were not only separated on talent, but also on the type of talent, Beatrice scrapped turning Susan into an underling.
Based on Susan's state above the ocean, Beatrice theorized the fact that she had talent in water magic, and even though Beatrice didn't know for sure, she was almost certain she didn't have any talent in water magic, or rather, she theorized she had talent in fire magic, because of just how sick she felt while at sea.
But of course, after spending some more time, Beatrice eliminated that theory and predicted she had talent in some sort of Dark magic.
Upon this discovery, Beatrice began attempting to learn information from the mages from the Shadow Monastery, but of course, that failed as well.
And as neither Beatrice's Mage nor Knight training seemed to have much effect right now, Beatrice was stuck with nothing to do, the only thing left for her to do was an attempt to sense the elemental energies around her, which she seemed to fail miserably at.
Today was the day Beatrice gave up attempting to extract information from the mages, and right now, she did not have a better plan at all.
Of course, this month was not a complete failure, as she further strengthened her relationships with the other magically gifted students and managed to not make a single enemy.
The only thing posibly wrong was that James seemed to have seen through her plot, of course, If these two do not go to the same magic school there will be problems.
Just as Beatrice was in deep thought, she suddenly sensed something around her.
Feeling the extremely huge amount of elemental energy that seemingly just appeared around her, Beatrice was shocked.
Even though she sensed the elemental energies around her, Beatrice did not do anything rash, she did not dare absorb it at all, as the basic Meditation technique did not record this part at all.
But even though she did not dare absorb it, Beatrice still felt somewhat different, it seemed as, compared to before, Beatrice had more energy, although not much more, she still felt the diference with her control over her body.
Even so, Beatrice did not stay up later to do more tests on it's effects, as sleep was something she took very seriously.
Before learning about mages, Beatrice took sleep, knight training and her diet even more seriously, as she wanted to live as long as possible, but even though she was about to become a mage, Beatrice still took her old habits with her.
...
"This diference..." mumbled Beatrice as she got up from her bed and washed her face, even though Beatrice had just woken up at three in the morning, half an hour earlier than usual, she felt extremely refreshed from her sleep.
As she felt the effects of living in a place with large amounts of elemental energies, Beatrice couldn't help but think of her family.
"I will take you here next time," mumbled Beatrice as if making a promise to herself.
