Little Six’s residence is an independent courtyard. Upon entering, one can see a fountain adorned with statues, along with a beautiful small garden.
Within the garden, gardeners are trimming the plants, while servants are cleaning up fallen leaves. Naturally, these servants are ordinary people. According to Little Six herself, they had been employed since the time her parents were alive.
Following Little Six, they eventually made their way to the second floor and stopped in front of a room at the end of the corridor.
Little Six knocked on the door, and shortly after, it was opened. An elderly woman in a modest long dress stepped out. Upon seeing Little Six, she respectfully lowered her head and addressed her as “Miss.”
This kindly-faced old woman was a servant in Little Six’s household, now assigned to take care of Helen.
“How is Helen doing now?” Little Six inquired.
“Miss Helen woke up for a bit in the morning but didn’t speak a word. She has since gone back to sleep.” The old woman’s eyes held a hint of fondness. Helen’s temperament wasn’t like other transcendent individuals who are often arrogant; she was not only calm but also very polite, and the old woman held a deep affection for her.
Little Six sighed, “You may leave for now. We’ll take it from here.”
While Little Six and the old woman were conversing, Angel had already sensed the situation inside the room. As the old woman had described, Helen was currently lying on the bed resting.
After opening the door, both Angel and Little Six entered.
The room was small, with modest furnishings, but it was well-lit. The colors of dusk filtered in through the window, casting a warm hue. At that moment, the glow of the setting sun bathed Helen, who was lying on the bed, in a natural reddish hue.
Angel approached the bed, gazing at the slumbering Helen.
It had been several years since their last encounter. Angel only knew that Helen had followed Silkvine to Summer Dew Ridge, and after that, there had been no more news.
Meeting Angel again after such a time, there was a palpable sentiment of reunion.
Helen’s appearance hadn’t changed much. The blush of sunset slightly concealed Helen’s pale complexion, but her weariness and frailty were hard to hide.
Angel, using his mental power, attuned himself to Helen, preparing to delve deeper into her current condition.
A few minutes later, Angel withdrew his mental power.
Seeing this, Little Six anxiously inquired, “Lord, is Helen alright?”
Angel responded, “Her physical state is quite dire. However, you’ve taken good care of her. At least physically, she seems to be gradually recuperating. Nonetheless, she still requires extended rest.”
As Little Six heaved a sigh of relief, Angel interjected with a caveat.
“However, what’s most concerning isn’t her physical injuries, but the shock her sea of consciousness has sustained.”
Little Six was aware of this. When Helen had woken up, she mentioned her inability to harness any mental power, even her mental space seemed vague and blurry.
This clearly indicated that Helen’s mental power had been injured.
Little Six, being a librarian of the Dove Library, often read the books she arranged. She recalled reading a book on mental powers that described symptoms following mental injuries. More than 90% of such injuries only hinder the movement of mental power, not the sensing of the mental space.
Only in cases of extremely severe injuries, almost irreparable ones, would such a situation arise.
Helen’s condition might be due to such severe mental damage. Left with no other options, Little Six seized every opportunity to seek Angel’s assistance.
“Lord, can her mental injury be healed?” Little Six hesitantly asked.
“Why ask such a question?” Angel looked puzzled at Little Six, simply seeing it as a blow to her mental strength. The way she spoke of it seemed as though it was some incurable disease.
Little Six relayed the information she had discovered to Angel. Upon hearing her account, Angel grasped the situation.
He chuckled a bit, saying, “What’s written in the information is correct, but you need to consider the actual circumstances. If Helen suffered the kind of mental damage you mentioned, she wouldn’t occasionally wake up — she wouldn’t even be alive.”
Little Six paused, “Do you mean that Helen’s injury isn’t as severe as I thought? But why has her perception of the mental space become so blurry?”
Angel replied, “Her injury is indeed serious, but not to the extent you described. As for not sensing the mental space, it’s normal since her talent is derived from external factors.”
Angel was very clear; Helen was not naturally talented. Initially, aboard the Cloud Conch ship, he had tested her mental strength value, which registered at 9.3.
Thus, for Helen to be talented, she must have relied on an external force. If nothing went wrong, she probably took the Cold Night potion given by Silkvine, allowing her to cross the 10-point mental strength barrier and become talented.
Precisely because it’s the result of external influence, her mental fluctuations aren’t entirely stable. If she had several years to cultivate, reaching the second level apprentice or, say, a senior first level apprentice, she should be fine. But she suffered the injury when she was still in the early stages of a first level apprentice.
Getting hurt when her mental strength was fluctuating made the injury more pronounced. Coupled with her talented status due to external factors, the artificially increased value became unstable.
Under these circumstances, it’s normal for her perception of the mental space to blur.
After hearing Angel’s explanation, Little Six began to understand, but her expression remained serious, “Will Helen’s mental strength value drop below 10 points then?”
If Helen truly lost her mental power, it would be akin to her being demoted from a talented individual to an ordinary mortal. Moreover, the Cold Night Potion can only be consumed once; she won’t have the chance to drink it again in the future.
“Possibly.”
Upon hearing this, Little Six responded anxiously, “Is there any way to remedy the situation?”
Angel turned his gaze to Helen, who lay on the bed, and replied indifferently, “Yes.”
This is because Helen’s current situation is merely an instability in her mental power, and the metrics haven’t truly plummeted, so there still exists a method to counteract this.
There are two potential remedies: either take a specially crafted Mental Power Restoration Potion or assist Helen in organizing her mental power.
The first method is exceedingly expensive. Every single vial of the specialized Mental Power Restoration Potion isn’t a minor expenditure and certainly not something an apprentice can afford. The second approach sounds straightforward, but it’s challenging in execution. To organize someone else’s mental power, one’s mental strength must be formidable and capable of meticulous maneuvers.
For an apprentice, this is a towering challenge. Even an apprentice at the pinnacle of their abilities cannot achieve this.
However, for a formal wizard, this is relatively simple.
Hence, Little Six seeking out Angel is, in a way, was unintentionally A Lucky Coincidence. Angel doesn’t need others to help craft the Mental Power Restoration Potion. With his inherent capabilities, he can directly assist Helen in rectifying her chaotic mental power.
