Shadow Monastery 2
Feeling his student's curious gaze, Mr. Errol smiled.
"That's Anne, one of three students that signed up to help me with experiments, a while ago," said Errol as he continued walking.
Hearing the word 'experiments', and remembering the state of Anne's body, Beatrice couldn't help but imagine what kinds of experiments she participated in.
But as she thought about that, a morbid curiosity appeared inside of Beatrice, back in her former laboratory, if any one of her subjects had such things done to them, they would have died thousands of times over. Still, remembering how Anne seemed alright even with the state of her body, Beatrice couldn't help but want to begin experimenting.
As Beatrice was still deep in thought, they had already arrived at a door.
"This is where you will live, at least for the foreseeable future," said Mr. Errol of he pushed open the door, revealing a normal room.
"After making yourself comfortable you should go and receive your elemental stones, you can go get them at the mission counter in this hall, I don't think you need a map," said Mr. Errol as he then gave Beatrice a small sheet of metal.
"You can use this to lock or unlock your door, don't lose it or you will need to pay half an elemental stone to have it replaced," said Mr. Errol as began walking away.
"Understood," said Beatrice as she held the small sheet of metal in her hands, feeling it's tiny dents and curves that gave it a unique flair, when suddenly, another piece of luggage appeared next to Beatrice's feet, alongside a small note on top of it.
'Come to my office in two weeks, there is a map inside' said the note, presumably written by Mr. Errol, causing Beatrice to wonder if he was preparing this while he was talking to her, otherwise how could he have enough time to prepare all this?
After reading the note, Beatrice stuffed it into one of her pockets before entering the room.
"Some sort of way to gather elemental energy?" mumbled Beatrice as she felt the density of elemental energy increase substantially when she entered the room.
Even though it was not that small, the room was quite empty, being comprised of a bed, a desk, a drawer, and a separate room that looked like a bathroom.
As she put down her luggage on the side of her bed, Beatrice actually noticed another side room, this one being obscured by the drawer and not visible when she entered it.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Beatrice's face as she swiftly opened one of the pockets from her luggage and took out a small sack, and almost sprinted towards the side room.
"This place really is nice," mumbled Beatrice as she looked at the bed standing in the middle of the room, although compared to normal beds, this one had a few distinguishing features, for example, it was much less wide and somewhat less tall, only being the size of a normal human, but the second most obvious things were the eight metal straps on it.
Built out of solid metal, there were four straps for the four limbs, with one for the neck and three for the torso.
As Beatrice slightly touched the metal straps with her fingers she suddenly felt her strength leave her body, causing her to quickly take it off.
"This should even be able to restrain a Royal Knight," thought Beatrice as suddenly, keeping one of these pinnacles of human might captive suddenly became possible.
After this Beatrice turned to the table on the side of the bed, and upon making sure that it was clean, Beatrice took out a bunch of things from her pouch.
In merely a few moments dozens of scissors, knives, saws, needs, and other equipment appeared on it.
After going back to her luggage, Beatrice even brought back a small axe, which should be used in case there is a need for rapid termination of all experiments.
"This already feels like home," mumbled Beatrice as she looked at her newly created experimental room.
After this, Beatrice returned to her own room before taking a look at what her teacher had given her.
As she opened the backpack given to her, the first thing Beatrice noticed was the pitch-black robe, which was promptly thrown on the bed.
The next item Beatrice picked up was a map, and as she unfolded it, Beatrice couldn't help but suck in a cold breath of air.
"This place is really huge," mumbled Beatrice as she looked at the multi-kilometer large area represented on the map in front of her.
After taking another look in the backpack and seeing that it was just another set of experimental tools, Beatrice picked them up and placed them under the bed before picking up her new robe and wearing it.
"This is really not as loose as I expected," mumbled Beatrice as she felt the black robe fit right around her body.
Merely a few moments after that, Beatrice exited her room before walking back to where she came from, the large hall.
Upon entering the hall, Beatrice noticed a stream of novice apprentices coming in, but Beatrice ignored them before walking towards the counter.
"I want to receive my monthly elemental stones," said Beatrice as she looked at the female apprentice sitting opposite of her with a blank expression on her face, hearing what Beatrice had to say the girl stretched out her hand.
Seeing this, Beatrice took out a golden token from under her robe, she then handed it to the girl.
After this, the female apprentice took Beatrice's token and pressed it against the counter, causing a small bag to appear next to it.
"Automated?" thought Beatrice as she looked at the scene in front of her, but even so, she was not too, surprised as this was still extremely believable for mages to create.
Suddenly a small stack of booklets that were sitting on the counter caught Beatrice's eye.
And as soon as Beatrice picked one up and opened it, an extremely surprised expression appeared on her face.
