[Day Ninety-Six.]
I discovered a similar spell in a to about souls. It is extrely difficult to cultivate, and I am unsure if it will be effective, but having it is better than nothing.
The fate seems can now make the outside ignore the crux of the problem, so at any ti, it could expose my intentions to Ansel. I must possess the ability to control the situation... The cultivation of ancient soul spells must also be prioritized.
[Day Two Hundred Eighty-Nine.]
I have found the core key to etheric armor, but my current abilities are insufficient to forge it independently. Perhaps once I leave here, I will have the capability to fully create it.
But this may still not be enough... The third stage, the third stage of chanical armor that only Lord Flalle can achieve, can I accomplish it?
The soul spells have also shown so rudintary results... It seems that the outside and I indeed share the sa soul but are absolutely independent individuals. I can hardly influence the outside through most of the spells in that to. Our connection... seems will only beco closer as the soul fragnts are increasingly consud, becoming fewer, and finally start craving my own soul.
Thus, I must wait.
[Day Three Hundred Twenty-Seven.]
As expected... the outside has already fallen into the quagmire of violence. The Tower of Babel is gradually becoming a workshop for Evora to manufacture violence. I did not foresee this flaw at the ti, and the outside has no other choice.
The design of the floating cannon is indeed sothing only I could create, and she has hidden it well... She has not exposed the chanical armor but is secretly researching it. Is she preparing a fallback for herself?
...That is indeed sothing I would do. The talents and gifts the outside possesses are no different from mine. Perhaps if Ansel returns later, that will have already figured out how to create etheric armor.
[Day Four Hundred Forty-Six.]
The outside has beco accustod to manufacturing violence, and the proliferation of firearms is a foregone conclusion... Both of us believe this is a necessary sacrifice to maintain the Tower of Babel.
There will be many such sacrifices in the future.
If Ansel's problem can be solved, we would not need to take these detours.
Do not slack off, Ravenna, for Ansel, and for... that future.
[Day Four Hundred Ninety-Seven.]
Four hundred ninety-seven days, I have visited my grandfather's grave four tis. Each ti, I encounter beneficiaries of the Tower of Babel's alchemical devices around the cetery, all ordinary people.
Even through the projection, I am sowhat moved... But is this really normal?
The existence of fate makes doubt this is a coincidence. If IT arranged it this way, what is its purpose? To make more humane?
Yes, I have always been like this, focusing only on the value of things, always able to make choices and sacrifices, but I do not see a problem with that, and neither does the outside .
If I speak coldly... Is it because Ansel is more valuable than that I want to save him? ...Perhaps. I am not sure, but in any case, Ansel should not be the one to be sacrificed.
But why does fate want to make more humane? If IT truly exists, it knows that I am watching everything here. Does making the outside more humane have any aning?
No... the outside will not beco more humane because of such trivial matters. What must be sacrificed will still be sacrificed.
[Day Six Hundred And Six.]
The onslaught from the Etheric Academy is becoming increasingly fierce, and the situation for the Tower of Babel is worsening. I am not adept at creating sheer violence; the developnt of mass-produced floating cannons might be the last resort to continue gaining protection from Evora for another six months to a year.
Does this an Ansel might have to return to the imperial capital? I cannot stand by and watch the Tower of Babel collapse like this. I hope the outside can handle everything—no, she will handle everything.
On my end, I should be able to advance to the fourth stage in about six months. Ansel has been exceedingly kind to ... He does not hinder my advancent in the extraordinary ranks, but there are still restrictions on alchemical tools, which confines all my current creations to re fantasies—this is too fatal.
Unstable tools cannot be used; I will need more ti after I get out to turn what I have accumulated over these three years into actual power.
Will Ansel give this ti?
[Day Seven Hundred and Twenty Three.]
It has been almost two years since I last saw Ansel. I think of him not out of loneliness, but out of concern for his current state.
Compared to , he has endured even more unbearable pain in solitude for two years... What has he gone through? What changes have occurred? Has his madness alleviated, or has it deepened?
...It seems I do not have the leisure to worry about him now. By perceiving myself from this angle day and night, I can see so much more clearly. I have also fallen into a colder and more indifferent mindset. More dangerously, both the outside and the here are self-aware, but... neither intends to change.
The only difference between Ansel and is this "self-awareness"; in other aspects... there is truly no difference.
The good news is, this version of undoubtedly fits the unfeeling image Ansel has in his mind. As long as nothing unexpected happens, Ansel will not suspect that .
But the bad news...
The bad news is, if this continues, one day I will truly, coldly weigh Ansel's value on a scale like a machine.
Experience tales with empire
I will truly beco the image he sees.
I must resolve Ansel's issue before I fall into such indifference.
I do not wish to change, but Ansel... does he not wish to change, or is he unable to change?
