Nature

After a few moments, Beatrice moved on, ignoring the feeling of being peeped on, and turning her neck backward, looking at her teacher.

As she looked at the smile on her teacher's face, a weird feeling emerged in Beatrice's mind.

"Not again," mumbled Beatrice as her body once again fell to the ground.

Looking at her unconscious apprentice, Selena Watford fell into her thoughts for a few moments before walking up to Beatrice, who was now floating in the air.

Then, Selena placed her hand on Beatrice's forehead before closing her eyes for a few moments, causing a frown to appear on her face.

"Her body and mind are in sync, so no possession," mumbled Selena as she then conducted a few more tests on her new apprentice, going as far as even checking for soul parasites, but in the end, she did not manage to find anything noteworthy.

The only thing she had roughly felt was the fact that Batrice's spiritual power was much stronger than expected, but she did really care much for this fact as long as she did not have anything she was searching for.

"Reincarnation no, spirit no, system no," mumbled Selena as she continued testing Beatrice, but after around thirty minutes of different tests, including her own personal method to see if someone is part of the reincarnation space, Selena gave up, placing Beatrice on the ground as well as tapping her forehead so as to wake her up.

Right now, Selena had a smile on her face, one much different than the one from before, as right now, Selena was really sure that she had found a nice helper.

Of course, if Beatrice was helpful to her, Selena did not mind teaching her some things in the process.

Looking at the sleeping Beatrice, especially her pure white hair, Selena couldn't help but slightly smile.

"We'll meet soon," mumbled Selena before noticing that Beatrice was just about to wake up.

...

The moment Beatrice regained consciousness, she had a weird feeling, feeling as though she was completely naked.

As the worst possible outcome briefly flashed through her eyes, Beatrice suddenly opened her eyes before breathing a sigh of relief.

"Are you feeling better now, you looked like you were tired after casting those spells, so I helped you take a nap," said Selena as she looked at her disciple with a cheeky smile on her face, being in an extremely good mood right now.

Hearing the words that came out of her teacher's mouth, Beatrice felt like she wanted to begin launching a dark bolt at her.

As she took in a deep breath and calmed herself down, Beatrice suddenly noticed something, her mana pool, which was previously only around sixty percent full, since she had cast those two dark bolts had once again been filled up.

Realizing this, a weird feeling seemed to emerge in Beatrice as she looked at her teacher for a fraction of a moment.

'Really professional,' thought Beatrice as she began following her teacher, who had just walked out of the room while Beatrice was thinking.

After walking through the corridor, Beatrice arrived in a large hall, following her teacher towards a certain corner, where a young boy lay on a metal bed.

"I need to do something, take out his heart, I need it, but make sure it's in the best condition possible, as for the rest of the major organs, you can put them in there," said Selena, pointing at a certain box, even though Beatrice was quite a distance away, she could still feel the cold emanating from the box, causing her to suddenly become curious.

After saying that, Selena disappeared, seemingly no longer paying attention to Beatrice.

'So it uses a spell,' thought Beatrice as she stared at the box, noticing a faint amount of elemental energy occasionally going into the box, before turning her attention to the meat bag on the table

As she looked at the young boy laying on the table, some thought's appeared inside of Beatrice's mind.

"Did she know I am very familiar with human experimentation, or did she simply want to test me," thought Beatrice as she looked at the set of surgical tools laying on another table next to the boy

Although human experimentation was really quite relaxing, at least in Beatrice's opinion, for some reason, even many Dark Mages refuse to do it.

Not knowing when her teacher would return, Beatrice quickly got to work, as she began cutting the chest of the boy open with extreme precision and speed, showcasing her large amounts of experience in this topic.

...

Staring at her disciple, who was going above and beyond her expectations, quickly dissecting the young boy, another smile appeared on the face of Selena Watford.

"Teaching a good apprentice is really quite a satisfying endeavor," mumbled Selena as she looked at her disciple with a smile on her face as she shameless proclaimed that she had in fact taught Beatrice anything.

As this thought entered her mind, Selena couldn't help but think about her last apprentice, who she had killed after the latter had annoyed her.

Of course, Selena would not kill without reason, as her last apprentice really was quite weakling, refusing to just kill some people to save his life, causing Selena to just torture those people for a little bit before killing him as well.

Suddenly, Selena broke out of her trance and disappeared.

...

Looking at the set of pristine organs in the box, a slight smile appeared on Beatrice's face as she took off the now bloodied gloves from her hands.

Suddenly, Beatrice felt a pair of hands land on her shoulder.

"Hm, it looks like you did a good job," mumbled Selena as the heart of the young boy suddenly floated in front of her face.

As Selena opened her mouth, seemingly preparing to eat a mouthful of the heart, a somewhat surprised expression appeared on Beatrice's face.

"Don't worry, I won't eat this, after all, I'm not some savage," said Selena as she looked at her disciple with a smile on her face.
