"Bang!"

  Once again, Leonard crashed on the floor hard; this time, it is a delicate hand made of very tiny colorful bubbles that had gripped him like a sandbag before crashing him down.

  "Its Grand Art, definitely a grand art," Leonard said weakly as he deactivated the armor and laid on the floor to rest.

  He needed it; for the past ten minutes, he been continuously taking the beating, even activated the power of his constitution, which drained him afterward. Even with using every bit of his power, he could not touch a single hair on Danielle's head.

  "Danielle, you have improved a lot since I saw you last time," I praised. The last time I saw her, she could barely fight peak Elite with the power of her art, and now, she could beat a peak leader like a sack of potatoes.

  "It is nothing compared to what you have achieved, Lord Dexter, not enough to fight even a Master," She said, not feeling much proud of her achievement.

  "Still, I have to thank you for the book you have provided to me; it is helping me immensely before I was blinding walking in my art, but with the book you have provided, I have some directions," She added.

  "Ive got the preliminary data on you guys, and we could start with my experiment," I said and took out two tubs.

  A second later, the air pen appeared on hands, and yellow-silver runes began to come out of it and flew to the tub on the left, and a few seconds later, a complex formation appeared on the left tub.

  As I finished with the left tub, I started with the right tub; this time, I used the different ink of purple-red color. The formations are different, and they will be for different level individuals, so how can the ink I use be different.

  With that done, I took out a palm-size blue runic bottle and started to fill the blue liquid into the left tub, the bottle may be small, but it contains a huge amount of liquid, enough to fill a couple of tubs.

  I filled the 70% of the tub with a blue solution before I stopped before I started adding one solution after another into the pool; I even added some raw plants, power, and a few other things, which gave a powerful medicinal fragrance and extremely rare.

  Some of the things inside were synthesized by an alchemist grandmaster; he did not even charge me since I had done a great favor to him by waking him up.

  Soon, I finished with the tub, which had changed the color from blue to turbit brown, with the left tub done. I moved to the right tub and started filling with completely different solutions and other ingredients that I had used in the left tub.

  Four minutes later, I finished with the right tub, which had a glowing while solution that looked like milk.

  "Danielle and Leonard, take off most of your clothes and enter the tubs," I said to both of them, but when they did not move after a second, I looked at them, only to see both of them looking at the tubs with shocked gazes.

  "What are you guys waiting for?" I asked a little loudly; this time, they have reacted instantly and started to take off their clothes.

  There was no hesitation and uncomfortableness in their actions; this is the thing they have done thousands of times since they began their practice, even before that for people like Danielle, who belong to supreme and is a member of a powerful family.

  "The solution is not mild; it will be quite painful," I said when both of them approached the tubs. They nodded and stepped into it.

  Drip Drip Drip

  As they laid into the tub, I took a small transparent bottle which has faint light water in it. I opened the bottle faintly and drop, a single drop of light green liquid on the left tub where Danielle is and dropped five drops into the right tub where Leonard is before activating the formations on the tub.

  The faint green drops are from erica's mutation, which I had purified. I had used the elemental nature part of the bloodline mutation; the solar element was useless for this solution.

  As I added the purified mutation and activated the formation, a great change occurred in the tubs and people sitting inside them. The colors of the solutions changed, and so are the expressions of those sitting in the tub.

  Both of them are now gritting their teeth and taking out faint noises of pain; I am quite impressed with them. To be honest, I had expected Danielle to scream, but it seemed like I had underestimated her a lot.

  I looked at them for a few seconds before I closed my eyes; as I did, I appeared in my core, and in front of me were two metaphysical bodies. My seed is spread into their bodies and gives me live information about them.

  The two formations and solutions had different purposes, which is why I had used different solutions for them.

  For Danielle, I want to see how much her art had started changing her constitution; Grand Arts do that, and the process expedite at a completely different level when one obtains a mark of Inheritance; I had observed my mother and was shocked to see, how many empires of mist is changing her.

  From what I had observed and read from the Hermes library, that the change in constitution began the moment when one started comprehending the grand art, but the change was so tiny that one could not observe it unless one went extremely deep.

  This solution and formation will help me go deep, and my seed will show me those changes during the formation strength, Danielle.

  My focus on Danielle would be helping her gain a mark of art and also the Inheritance core. My mother would be the best subject as her art, and her Inheritance is connected, and she said, once the host of Empire of Mist got their mark, it will help her in creating an Inheritance core.

  If the past records were right, then she will have her Inheritance core in a year; unfortunately, there is a very low chance I will see it happening, seeing mom will not be a pyramid.

  Her art makes her an extremely important asset of war, and Grand Commander will use it to its highest; she will be doing one assignment after another, just like a professor who had not returned to the academy ever since she went to the Pyramid, even now she is busy doing missions.

  There is also another reason, Danielle's art is more interesting to me than a mother's Empire of Mist, and I want to observe it from the nascent stage. I am sure it will help me immensely as I was able to study it till it formed the mark.

  Not to mention, mentoring someone with Grand Art is a rare feat, and if I am able to help her reach her full potential, I will be helping immensely in the war efforts.
