Modern Warfare (3)

"I have an idea. Why don't we just turn it into pure energy using the magic? It'll be like we're puryfying the bio-energy, making it more powerful and effective"

"That sounds great"

"You've thought of this before?"

"Um...yes"

"Why haven't you tried it?"

"Haven't had the time to. Since you have a bigger lab, it'll work better"

"Let's start then"

All of them put on safety equipment and prepared for the experiment.

"Have you thought of how to contain the energy?"

"Well, Chronos has thought about that and we produced the strongest and most durable alloy, made it into a container, and packed it along. He's really useful"

"Ah, your majesty, anything for you" Chronos said with stars in his eyes. Irilium smiled at him.

"Your highness, is something wrong?" Ava asked Olivia when she saw her stalling and staring into space.

"Ah, it's nothing. I just thought Irilium is so smart, he doesn't need my help. In fact, all of you don't need my help"

Ava took a deep breath.

"Your highness, if I may be impudent, I won't say for sure Prince Irilium is so smart that he's smarter than you. I won't say you're useless here. You are so much more than you realize. You won a war even with your memory loss. You stood up against the council and you found a spy. You deserve so much more credit, my princess"

"Ava.....Thank you"

"You're welcome. Let's get to work now. Time is of the essence"

"Yes"

Meanwhile, with Irilium and Rie, Irilium was smiling so much.

"Your cheeks would burst brother"

"I don't care. She's so smart....ahhh" Irilium put his hands against his cheeks, swooning. Rie looked at her and couldn't find anything interesting about her.

"You....like....her?"

"Eh, yes. Is it a crime?"

"No...it's just.....it's unlike you. I thought it was basic interest but you're deeply fascinated"

"Now's not the time for this Rie. We have work to do"

"Okay"

Irilium left Rie's side and hurried to Olivia's side. Rie watched them talk with a thoughtful look. Truthfully, he didn't know if it was a good or bad thing they got together. He just hoped nothing would happen to his cute little brother.

"Mirel would help purify the bio-energy. It is being contained in the Compressor. Mirel, if you would..."

She stood from the table and walked towards the compressor. The rest stayed back, in fear of an explosion.

"Supply low energy first" Irilium instructs. She nods and did as told. She put her hand on the compressor and a blue light enveloped it. A magic circle appeared on the compressor, channeling Mirel's magic inside the Compressor. She did so for five minutes and stopped as she was asked.

Irilium went closer to check.

"Nothing has happened. Say, Olivia, do you think we would produce nuclear energy? It's magic after all and magic is advanced science. Do you think it'll go that bad?"

"I doubt it. You said it yourself. it's advanced science. It might produce am energy or element never seen before. It'll be groundbreaking"

"I guess so. Mirel, channel more energy for 5 minutes again. We'll take it slow"

Mirel nodded and a double magic circle appeared on the compressor. When the five minutes were up, something drastic happened.
