Love can defeat logic

While Helen and Francis where thinking about their own cultivation, Madel was busy thinking how she could hold Henry's hands. It was not like she can simply grab it. The Kidons will soon come near at their table to send her friends home.

Then a brilliant idea came to her mind. She immediately raised her hand and a bird landed on her hand. She requested for Imary to come. Imary was a celestial King Vicilous Groner (a winged beast with broad back and wide wings.) She also informed the bird to tell her beast friends that she will accompany Henry and the rest to the edges of the forest together with the bird.

As their talk concluded, Imary landed on the ground triggering more frays. Henry and the rest once again looked at the beauty of the surroundings.

Cheska flicked her finger and placed the manual in her storage ring and appreciated the surroundings with hope in her eyes.

The fruits, flowers and some of the leaves where glowing. There where frays which were suspended in the air and the starry night was adorable.

When they rode the winged beast, Madel sat closer to Henry just enough for their arms to touch. His shoulders were warm and soft caressing her heart. Imary flew slowly, letting them enjoy the scenery below. There were groups of glowing blue butterflies which passed by them. The beauty of the dark forest somehow alleviated their heart which was in turmoil. Some of the beasts created a movement which triggered the frays to move up.

From above, as they saw the slowly rising silver frays they were astounded. It was the first time for Madel to witness the beauty of her home. For the past 17 years, all she saw were the layer of seven realms in each object. It was like looking to cells, atoms, kishas, and so on. She called it heavens below. Because surely there would still be layers of heavens above.

Madel gasped in astonishment. All the glowing frays below were slowly rising to the ground. The glowing sprites which were accompanying them saw her amazed expression and one of them dived down on the dark forest. Imary continued to fly slowly as if sensing the amazement of the humans on its back. Soon a harmonious melody can be heard from the dark forest. It was the natures tune which could bring delight into a human soul.

Then, there was a strange energy which filled their entire body. The feeling was pleasantly overwhelming. Then, fireflies and other insects started to fly up wards. Those insects where carrying a fray on their back. Soon. On a synchronized motion, they simultaneously dropped the frays creating a fireworks-like display.

"Wow!!!" Helen and Francis both exclaimed. If Henry knew what those two people were thinking, he would be very surprised. Both were thinking about physics of falling frays, the rules of gravity in planet Rosetha and the effect of such actions in nature. Before they could finish speaking, the minds of those young geniuses had already calculated the number of glowing algae that will grow and its covered area.

Numbers of Frays lighted the night sky. For Henry, it was like a light show (Came from light magic of light wielders), for Cheska it looked like a firework display and for Madel it was a magical and precious sight. The human mind is difficult to understand. The same scenery could be interpreted differently by each perception.

Their visit into the dark forest was a roller coaster ride of emotions. They felt frightened, delighted, surprised, stunned, scared, pleased and so on. At the end of the day, it was so overwhelming that if they did not meditate to process everything, they might be traumatized.

Helen, Cheska and Henry all went to meditate that night. They collected numerous celestial tier herbs which could help them to increase their level of cultivation. If they weren't scared from the celestial beasts residing in the forest, they could have cultivated on that very forest. There was a rich and pure spiritual energy from it.

However, their meditation was aimed to calm their heart and find meaning with their experience and not to rise their strength.

Rising their cultivation means that they needed to circulate their zhenqi according to one of the techniques or aspects that they wanted to enhance.

Indeed, meditation helped them to process the overwhelming information that they encountered earlier. They were able to sort out the problems that needs to address, which was urgent and which was not. They were able to assimilate what they witnessed in the dark forest in their life in the city and evaluate life as a whole. Such precious experience could have been wasted if they did not take time to contemplate on it. This time, for all of them, emotions needs to be sorted out as well.

Madel on the other hand was thinking of a completely different thing. While closing her eyes, she tried to analyze her feelings towards Henry. Bearing a heavy burden on her shoulder, she must select the right person to pass on the celestial artifact in her possession (The path of king). Her heart was telling to give it to Henry, but her mind was telling her that he was not the right one. Because she loved him, it was only natural that she wanted him to be safe. The path of king wielded immense power yet heavy responsibility. If she gives the artifact to Henry he would surely be safe even if apocalypse comes. But, love is truly blind. That was the scary part about it.

Not being able to see through Henry gave her the largest reason to doubt. What if he was defiled? What if he was unpure? He would not be qualified to hold the artifact. But even if he was not the one who was destined, her heart wanted to give it to him. It was simply too illogical. Love is to powerful that even logic could be defeated
