If I was doing this myself, I would have definitely ended up dead. I might have even killed or hurt the rest of the people around , and I wouldn't have been able to forgive myself if I had done that.
'But I did not have to worry…'
With Lucy taking the charge, even though I felt a strong pain throughout my body with each arrow shot at the snakes… with each dangerous snake that hissed at with their wide open maws flying at like a bee, I felt like I was going to shatter anyti.
If I was the one that had to do this, I would have been unable to do even half of what she was doing right now.
'Do you feel pain, Lucy?'
[{ *I may be a sentient entity, master, however the concept of emotions is different for . I feel, yes, however pain is sothing you feel when you have a physical body. And even though I share yours, I do not have a physical body of my own.* }]
'So you do feel pain through then, right?'
[{ *I do feel how you feel pain, however, it is not the sa, master.* }]
'Then… does it hurt?'
I had no idea why I was asking her these things at a ti like this. It was strange, but asking these things strangely comforted .
[{ *I know you are hurt right now, and that you are in pain. That is why I am trying my best to finish it as quickly as I can. If only I could focus…* }]
I was bothering her, haha.
'Apologies then…'
The pain was not the worst. It was great, but, seeing what I was seeing right now, feeling the various energies and feeling the purest of it getting extracted was a one of a kind experience.
[5:01 PM]
I did not have fun throughout the process. I was in pain.
[6:51 PM]
I did not know what was happening around as my eyes were now closed off due to what was going on inside .
[7:02 PM]
Perhaps, my whole body was glowing right now and I might even seem like I was on fire right now. I did not know what was happening out there but…
[7:32 PM]
I did know we had succeeded in the second part of the process as well.
[{ *It is complete, master.* }]
'Wow…'
An essence as pure as the purest form of soul, a pure fog like energy so pure that it might even put the noble elents to sha.
It was within right now, but its existence was so fleeting that without the encapsulation of Solnova, another pure energy thought of a very different nature, it would have leaked out into the atmosphere and dissipated into the world.
'The purer the thing, the harder it is to maintain its existence, and this silver fog before was no different.'

It was very reactive if we think about it, so we knew condensing it into a different form would be a great challenge. But, we had prepared for it.
[7:44 PM]
Though I could not see it myself, I knew this was the ti the moon reaches directly above our heads and covers the ceiling of this cave.
'Release it, Lucy."
[{ *Yes, master…* }]
The energy that the headmaster pulled apart was now as pure as the origin energies and, with its life essence, it was also one of its kind.
I felt my body moving for the first ti in a while, and, though the movent was automated, I could now feel my hands touching a cool tallic surface.
-OOOOOOOOOOONG!
When I opened my eyes, my hands were resting on the final artifact in the very centre of the room. The moon was right above us, and it looked much bigger than it ever had.
The hundreds of crystals that we had set all around the cave were now glowing in a dull white light.
They were not active just yet, but that was going to change…
-Zaaaaaaa…!
From this mont forth.
[{ *Releasing the energy into the condenser.* }]
All the filtered energy that I gathered after these hundreds of minutes of excruciating endurance was instantly moved from inside of my body to the inside of the artifact…
[{ *We ended up losing 72% of it, master. It's better than we predicted.* }]
'Better by 6% at that. It couldn't be an error now, so was it because of Solnova?'
[{ *We would have to do it a few more tis to confirm that, master.* }]
'Don't joke like that, Lucy dear.'
We had expected that energy loss.
The thing that we were dealing with was so delicate that even after taking all the precautions, even after having all the keys, and even with the state of the art techs, it was obvious we wouldn't even be able to keep a third of it.
Still, we obtained good results.
In fact…
[9:03 PM]
When the artifact was done processing the energy inside of it and had given it a new form, it had turned into sothing completely different from what it used to be.
[{ "Damn…" }]
"Look… at that…"
"It… it was possible…"
Though it was fluid, it seed like a crystal.
It was gathered inside a unique chamber that resembled a see-through jar it was one of the finest works of one of the finest living artisans in the world.
'Definition of ethereal…'
It had only begane.
The process had just started.
The hundreds of crystals around us were being used to focus the energy of the moon onto the condenser in order to accelerate the process, but while it might not be visible in the perceivable spectrum, in Rein's eyes, I had an idea what all this might be looking like…
Still…
What we were getting inside the product jar as the end result, was a floating piece of silver liquid that was beating like a heartbeat.
It was the first drop, so small it seed like the last drop of water that bounces off after a drop of water falls on a water surface…
It was bright, but not so much that we could not see it.
It was an unfathomable sight as well. But, more than amazing… this was a heartwarming sight.
'We succeeded, Lucy.'
[{ *We did, master.* }]
If it wasn't for her, I know it would not have been possible. So…
'Thanks, Lucy.'
My legs gave up and I fell to my knees, my eyes still locked on the results of our months of efforts, the first drop of the [Lifeblood] that gives rise to every single existing life.
Essence of all living…
The force that gives 'life' its concept.
The building block that constructs the mind, as well as that which we recognize as Soul.
[{ *I am happy to be of help, master-.
…!
Master!" }]
-Ooooooooong!
-Boooooooooooom!
[{( "Tsk." )}]
[{( "How can you miss sothing like that?" }]
We were entering into the realm of the divine with this…
But, it looks like the divine did not like mortals interfering with sothing they should never possess… much less created.
