Then let's wish each other good luck!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two chatted for a while longer before bidding each other farewell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel returned to the forge and started thinking. Earlier, he had given Betsy a nail clipper as a gift. He couldn't play favorites, so what should he give Ed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An ear-pick, perhaps?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the so-called Enlightenment Competition…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was there even anything he needed to prepare for?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whatever he did would be more than enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That evening, Veya sat in her room, gazing out the window and occasionally letting out a silly laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her maid stood nearby, confused and a little alarmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss, you've been sitting there daydreaming for hours. Why don't you get some sleep already?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moon had been up for quite a while, yet Veya was still sitting there, smiling like a fool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her maid's voice, Veya snapped out of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? What did you say? Hours? It's only been a little while!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss, what are you talking about? You've been out of it since you came back this afternoon. I think someone's bewitched you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop talking nonsense! Sleep? No, I'm going to cultivate!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya waved off the suggestion, pulling out the Magic Array Core Daniel had repaired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was something Daniel had personally fixed, so it felt special to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She held the Core in her hand for a moment before beginning her cultivation practice—a special training focused on enhancing comprehension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trying to empty her mind of distractions, Veya activated the Magic Array Core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, as soon as she started using it, something felt… strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not wrong, exactly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More like things were going too smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even when the Magic Array Core had been brand new, it hadn't produced such extraordinary effects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if her mind had entered an unprecedented state of clarity. Problems she had struggled with before suddenly seemed trivial, their solutions immediately obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The questions and obstacles she had faced in her cultivation all seemed to resolve themselves effortlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And, inexplicably, she couldn't help but wonder:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why had I been so foolish before? How did I not think of this sooner?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya abruptly stopped cultivating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something about this state felt… off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this really her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had she really achieved all this herself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her mind was filled with doubt and uncertainty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was happening to her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After attempting to resume cultivation several times, Veya's attention was finally drawn to the Magic Array Core in her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only explanation she could think of… was the Core itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss, are you alright? You seem restless today, like you can't settle into your cultivation,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>her maid asked, noticing her unease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya looked at the Magic Array Core in her hand, her expression conflicted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew that the Core she had purchased shouldn't be capable of producing effects like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only possibility… was that something had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of hesitation, she turned to her maid and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait here for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she left her room, still holding the Magic Array Core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid watched her leave, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What's gotten into her today? She's been acting strange since she got back this afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did someone… charm her or something?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya went to another room, where her mentor—a middle-aged woman—was staying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, can you take a look at my Magic Array Core?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya placed the Core on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It feels… off somehow. I'm not sure what's going on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I told you, didn't I? This is just a small city. How could anyone here repair a Magic Array Core properly? Of course, there's going to be a problem! You should've just used your backup Core—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reached for the Core, intending to set it aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, Master, that's not it! This Magic Array Core seems to be working better than before. Please, take a closer look!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman frowned but reluctantly agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, I'll take a look…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She picked up the Magic Array Core again and examined it closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Continue your adventure with My Virtual Library Empire\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then, her expression changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was stunned to discover that the Core's grade had been elevated by an entire level!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn't just a repair; it was an upgrade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya might even have a chance to break through again before the Enlightenment Competition started!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? Who repaired this for you? This Magic Array Core has been upgraded by an entire tier!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged woman had completely abandoned her usual composed demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She urgently questioned Veya, because she understood what this meant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To not only repair the Core but also enhance it to such a degree required skill far beyond that of the Core's original creator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This level of craftsmanship was practically unheard of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that there was truly a hidden master living in Greenstone City?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her mind, Veya saw Daniel's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the end, she chose not to reveal his identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She simply said that she had encountered a peculiar man who had repaired the Core for her free of charge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged woman could only sigh in amazement at Veya's good fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed this opportunity was meant for Veya alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, Veya returned to her own room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again, she seemed lost in thought, her mood oscillating between joy and melancholy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss, what's wrong with you today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>her maid asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing. I'm going to sleep now. You should rest, too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya dismissed her, signaling that she wanted to be left alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid could only retreat to her own quarters, baffled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sigh… What's wrong with Miss today? Did someone steal her heart?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her room, Veya stared at the Magic Array Core in her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As her mentor had said, this was no ordinary item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the person who had modified it to this level…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of extraordinary individual must they be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya wasn't naïve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She understood the implications.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To repair a Magic Array Core while elevating its grade required mastery beyond even what most artisans at the Artisan's Sanctuary could achieve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a person would be considered a core disciple there, if not more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet, here they were, quietly working in a small forge in Greenstone City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if she performed well at the Enlightenment Competition and caught the attention of the powerful faction behind Thousand Suns Hall…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She and Daniel were destined to walk different paths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gap between them would only grow wider—so wide that they'd eventually be worlds apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the only thing connecting them would be the memory of their shared carriage ride outside Greenstone City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel was already so brilliant, so extraordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya knew there was no way she could ever match him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She liked him, but she also understood that her feelings were futile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were people from entirely different worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>",1155,"2026-06-06T15:56:16.256Z",1,"novelbin.me","d4caf80a8db3a266b1e14f3c82885b086dbdf07ff64e8249e5e6b0fcf5814e15","imprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-chapter-387","imprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-chapter-385",734,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-cover.jpg"]
