"Master, she’s ready."
Luna said after administering the anesthesia. I looked at the sleeping elf, and she looked absolutely gorgeous lying there, her eyes closed, sleeping peacefully.
"I’ll be extracting her mories since I’m sure she must have missed sothing in her explanations."
The mory stone floated in the air above her head as a translucent spell floated above it. This was a spell specifically used when using the mory spell, a sort of anchor.
’Extract ’
The mory stone started to glow as it rotated above her head. Different kinds of small images started to appear inside the stone. They were too small to see exactly, but I knew they were Kianah’s mories.
Below, Kianah’s body twitched occasionally as the mories were forcefully pulled off. It was a sha there wasn’t a spell to search the mories without the use of stones. There were just too many restrictions on the matter of mind and soul.
"Done."
The mory crystal floated into my hand. The mories inside had sort of organised themselves in a kaleidoscope of colors.
"Let’s start from her first mory. "
This was when she was a year or so old when her mind had developed enough to rember. What stood out from those childhood mories was the female dark elf who was beside her and caring for her. There weren’t any other elves around which made her statent true.
What was still weird as we moved on through her mories was that the woman’s face remained blurry; it was as though sothing was preventing us from seeing it. That just made my curiosity bigger. I moved on until I ca to her mory of planting most of the poisons and Zelph understanding them.
It was unfortunate that all of them required the help of a dark elf. When I reached the first mory of myself, I paused; it had been when I was ten. That had been the ti I started to leave the duchy occasionally.
"She seems to have lived near the city for a while."
Luna, who was beside , looking at the mories, said. I nodded. From her mories, she was just looking for ingredients for spells and potions.
"We should erase that."
I said the mont we reached the drawing I had left at the cave. Luna nodded. The mory square broke into pieces. That mory is gone.
"And that one."
"Master, if I could make a suggestion?"
Luna asked cautiously and pointed at her mory of the castle.
"You may."
"You can make it into a friendly fight and then remove all the mories about the first operation."
I nodded her suggestion was better than mine.
"You’re right, I had thought of erasing everything about or our eting, but making into a friend would make her trust easily ."
Luna nodded. We did just that, erasing all mories that seed extrely negative and modifying so to make us look friendly and loving.
This would alter most of her personality, but as long as she was able to plant and remain fully committed, I couldn’t care less.
"This should be enough, let’s not ss with a lot of her core mories. "
"You seem to have forgotten sothing young master. "
Luna said. I was just about to put the mory stone down.
"She said her guardian forbade her from ever telling anyone, you haven’t erased that."
"Ooh, yes, how could I have forgotten that?"
I ran a hand through my hair. That was a mory that could dismantle almost everything. We hurriedly went through it and found it. She had been told during her first teaching when she was five years old.
"Let’s begin the operation then."
Luna nodded and stepped back. She organised the tool table and gave the scalpel. The mory stone only copies mories , i had to destroy her mory storage part of the brain first.
"Won’t she turn into Isis at first?"
Luna asked curiously whole wiping my sweat. I liked talking during these straining operations, which kept more engaged, and Luna knew that.
"No, this is different. For Isis, I basically destroyed a lot of her mory, emotions, personality, and anything that would associate her with a slave. They always carry resentnt. "
Luna nodded and leaned in to suction the gathering blood. I continued talking after the small pause.
"This one we are just replacing her mory. She doesn’t need to learn anything at all."
We pulled through the operation with small talk as I pulled out small pieces of her brain, then started replacent and reconstruction.
I added the spell used to return her mory and another spell to destroy them if it ever backfires. I wasn’t really sure if the mory stone was foolproof.
The process took four sand glasses since I needed to pick a small, specific part. It was delicate enough, and I didn’t want to touch another part.
"Bring the stone"
I said to Luna, extending my arm towards her, I wanted to put her mory back before Luna stitches her up. The stone floated above her forehead and the color drained from it as it flowed into her head.
The mories couldn’t be seen physically after they drained from the stone. The only way to know was to look at the colour.
Looking at the process, a question flashed through my mind, and I pushed it to the back. That would be for another ti.
"Stitch her up."
I said to Luna the mont the stone drained all its colour. I stepped back and she took over . Now the only thing we had to do was to wait for her to wake up so that I could see if my impulsive research had paid off.
I had never done this to any other slaves. The only thing I did was just create re dolls for students and teachers who asked. I can say that it beca quite the business in the academy.
Unlike Luna’s worries, I had not faced any trouble for that yet.
"She feels like a half-made doll since she has most of her mories. "
I said in amusent to luna who was finishing her stitches. Right now I was sitting by the operation bed since I had to be the first person she saw when she woke up.
It was a hassle on its own but it was part of the process.
"I’m done master."
Luna’s voice took out of my musings. She had started to clean the blood in the operating room.
"Master, she’s starting to wake up."
Luna said. I stood up and looked down at Kianah. Her eyes moved beneath her lips as her eyelashes flustered before her eyes opened.
Grey eyes looked at in confusion. She glanced around before she turned to look at again.
"Do you know who I am?"
I asked with a smile on my face. She blinked before a smile curved on her face.
"Young master Lucian. "
I chuckled. It had worked perfectly.
"Yes, dear Kianah, it’s young master Lucian."
She giggled. As long as she rembers , it ans the mory change worked. I couldn’t care less about any side effects.
"Why am I here?"
She asked after a mont of silence as she looked around. I help her sit up slowly. She swayed a little as a spell of dizziness hit her.
That was to be expected since her brain had to adapt to the mory erasure.
"You got attacked."
She looked at in surprise as she tried to recall what I was saying.
"What, but I don’t rember anything."
She said doubtfully as she touched her body hesitantly looking for injuries.
"I’m not really sure, but I found you at the estate gates unconscious. There was no one around. I apologise for not arriving on ti. I healed most of the injuries on your body but the main wound on your head will take a day or two."
She looked distressed before she took my hand into hers and started to play with my fingers.
"It’s okay, as long as the young master saved my life. I owe you my life."
A sad smile was on her face. I pulled her into a soft hug as tears started to drip down her cheeks. She burst out into full sobs the mont I held her.
"I .... I don’t know....why ... I...crying.."
She said between sobs. This was probably her body’s traumatic response and a warning to her. The brain was really complex. It was still trying to save her.
"Probably just tired, crying helps relax the body."
She nodded against my shoulders. She cried until sleep took her.
"Let’s take her to the annex."
Luna nodded and followed behind as I carried her out of the room. The annex was a smaller house separate from the main house.
Since it was empty, Jeneviv had taken to staying there. She will be a good friend to Kianah since she is naive and overly friendly.
Jeneviv ward up to us after experiencing the full benefits of staying with .
"The sun has already set? Ti sure flies."
I said the mont we stepped out of the laboratory.
