Dredre juggled between taking care of her floating forest and Wyatt, she was not new to a heavy workload. After all, she worked at the Infinity Library, which was busy 24/7. However, there was something different today, she was happy. She was genuinely happy to be able to care for her forest and her friend. This was what Pixie's traditional role was. However, as a Library Guide, she barely got this feeling.
At first, when she arrived, Dredre was happy to meet her friend in the physical plane for a change but now she was happy that she was doing what the Pixie race had evolved to do. With evolution, every species finds its place in its ecosystem. In the case of the Pixie race, their ecosystem was at a larger scale than that of humans and dark races, the entire cosmos was their playing field and they had evolved to be its caregivers.
The librarian might have stripped the Pixies of their identity and brainwashed them into adopting a new identity for over a millennium but the real identity of Pixies was a part of them and never left them. Unless the librarian somehow gets them to reverse-evolve.
"Is this Wyatt's real form?" Dredre uttered as she flew around all twelve giant heads and twelve giant pairs of arms showering them with her pixie dust. The eyes of all twelve heads were shut tight as if they were in a deep penance.
"Wow," Dredre exclaimed as Wyatt's giant body suddenly began to emit a force, that was similar to the gravitational force of a world. However, her tiny wings had the ability to resist such forces otherwise she would have fallen on one of Wyatt's giant head's forehead.
Dredre looked at Wyatt intently to analyze the changes in his body and found that the change in his body was similar to that of the forest she creates rather than the change seen in the beasts. Dredre knew the effects of her pixie dust better than anyone, it affected animate and inanimate beings differently. Card Apprentices were more evolved than beasts, but they were still in the same category. So she wondered why Wyatt was emitting the celestial force like her forests instead of growing a higher level of sentience like the beasts occupying it.
What Dredre did not know about her pixie dust was that though at the start her pixie dust affected the animate and inanimate beings differently the end result was the same, with enough pixie dust and time they all could achieve transcendence. The reason Dredre had no idea of this was that she had never come across a being that had been able to evolve past its mortal constraints, until Wyatt.
Wyatt, himself, was not aware that all the Pixie Dust he snorted was enough to erase his own existence as a being by dispersing his spiritual body in the spiritual plane and physical body in the physical plane. Fortunately for him, his gigamite body and his calamity soul gems were strong enough to keep him alive.
Had it been any other card apprentice, even if they were a genius card apprentice born once a millennium they would have ultimately become one with the spiritual and physical plane. The only reason Wyatt did not such a desperate end despite snorting nearly half a kilo of pixie dust in the past few hours was because of the dungeon calamity seed that he had turned into his core.
Not all beings in a species were made the same, let alone all the species. So not all could achieve higher realms the same way, they had to find their own to break through to higher realms but some were never meant to achieve higher realms. That was the truth, the faster one understands that the less disappointed they will be when life constantly keeps reminding them of that truth. n(-OveLB1n
"The force is getting stronger," Dredre who was showering her pixie dust on Wyatt could feel the celestial force being emitted by Wyatt's body getting stronger.
Did Dredre know that high about of her pixie dust can cause a being to lose their existence to the physical and spiritual plane? No, as there was a difference in ingestion into pixie dust. First was the direct injection through their wings and the second was the indirect injection that was by collecting pixie dust and snorting it.
Earlier when Dredre was showering her pixie dust on the floating forest and the beasts in it, Wyatt tried to grab a little of the pixie dust and test it but it elusively escaped his grasp and reached its destination as if it had a mind of its own. Even when the pixie dust reaches its destination it will only help the being but never harm it, the extra pixie dust that the being cannot handle will just disperse in the surroundings. Such was a miracle of the pixie dust. When directly catered by the pixie themselves the pixie dust was more beneficial than storing it and using it.
It can be seen that the pixie dust of Dredre knew the unlimited potential of Wyatt when at first Dredre showered Wyatt with a handful of the pixie dust and he experienced the mysterious state for the first time. In case, Wyatt was not able to handle the pixie dust then the extra pixie dust would have dispersed in the surroundings. This was why Dredre was not so keen about the quantity of pixie dust she used, she never had to as she did not even know that a lot of pixie dust could cause the being to lose its existence to the two planes.
Not to forget the fact that the pixie dust created by Dredre who currently had the realm of a card emperor was of higher purity and concentration compared to the one she would have created in the lower realm. Wyatt had snorted almost half a kilo of this powerful stuff in a few hours. If not for the dungeon calamity seed, even his gigamite physique would have given up by now.
Though Wyatt was able to increase his synchronization rate unlimitedly with the help of the pixie dust that might not be the case for the other card apprentice. There might be a limit to how pixie dust each card apprentice can withstand. The boost they gain by ingesting the pixie dust might not be the same. Pixie dust was miraculous but it was not omnipotent, otherwise, the pixie would not be enslaved to begin with.
