Chapter 2830 More than Flesh (Part 2)

'That's for sure.' Dusk replied. 'You need it in your everyday life. If you have more time, instead, suggestion is a powerful tool especially when your host is asleep. Unlike us, all creatures lower their guard while they rest, even the undead. _{freёwebnovel.com}

'During their slumber, their mind is helpless and whatever you tell them, they'll mistake it for their own thoughts. Over time, the seed of doubt you plant will turn into a strong belief that you can nurture or prune as it develops.

'Another way to bend your host's will is to amplify and suppress their feelings while they are awake. This way…'

Kelia was supposed to study the power core of the Wayfinder while Dusk instructed Solus but she was too shocked to do anything but listen.

She was pretty sure that Dusk hadn't done anything like that to her. They rarely fused their minds and when they did it was always limited to a specific topic. Also, she didn't remember any dream that had changed her way of thinking.

The few she recalled, were just nonsense.

'If I don't stop overhearing their conversation, I'm not going to sleep for weeks.' Kelia shuddered, moving her focus on her breathing technique and from there, on the enchantments surrounding them.

Away from Lith's wagon, there was less information about the power core but also fewer cloaking runes. Kelia took notes of everything she could grasp past the Royal Forgemasters' workings as they reached the last car of the Wayfinder and then moved back.

'Shit! Gravity magic, Dimensional Magic, Light Mastery, several unknown Forgemastering spells, and many more belonging to every single element aside from Spirit Magic.' Kelia couldn't read the enchantments due to the cloaking runes but she could still recognize the different energy flows.

'This thing is more than a masterpiece. Unless we get our hands on a copy of the blueprints, reverse engineering the Wayfinder will be a long and difficult process. The worst part is that without a Light Master, the Empire won't be capable of making any improvements, only to replicate it as is.

'Unless we strike a deal with the Eclipsed Lands and Dawn gives us a hand.' A light smile appeared on Kelia's face.

She was proud of herself for being able to garner so much during the walk and also of her ability to plan ahead.

'Maybe Dusk is right. Maybe I'm more than a lump of flesh carrying a powerful artifact.'

The rest of the day passed uneventfully and so did the first part of the night.

"What the heck is going on? Why are we stopping?" Lith stood up and moved to the secret panel behind which the power core of the Wayfinder was secured.

The Royal Forgemasters had placed it in the safest place on Mogar. Inside Lith's compartment, under the crib where the babies slept.

Lith needed to input a code even to move the crib away and reveal the panel.

"Is everything okay?" Kamila sat up on the bed, checking on Elysia and Valeron first.

'I know that Tyris must be here somewhere but I can't relax until I'm sure they are alright.' The peaceful breathing of the babies and a touch of Abyssal Gaze reassured her of the babies' condition and warned her that they were about to get peckish in ten minutes or so.

"Peachy." Lith replied. "I have no idea how the Royal Forgemasters did it, but we have just reached half the autonomy."
