28 The Start of Mystery
Nora sat witness to several minutes of discussion between the two Great Mages. Eventually, they reached a conclusion. They had discussed several things, such as, where they would teach Nora and where they could avoid the Lightcrows influence. They had a few ideas such as going to the Mage tower in which Great Mage Mirlie received her post-academy education, the Crimson Flame Tower, but they eventually decided on going to Sev's now personal Mage Tower. The secluded Mage Tower which once housed him and his friends during his younger years was rather well hidden and nearly impenetrable.
Yet, before they could continue their discussion, Nora budded in, "What about Percy? Can he come too?" Great Mage Mirlie couldn't help but think to herself, 'My, my, this girl really wants the world...'
"Well," before Great Mage Mirlie could respond Sev spoke, "that'll be up to him to decide if he wants to come along" he made sure to not let Mirlie turn the request down. He knew the value that a good friend could carry, and the feeling of loneliness the lack of one created.
"Before we inform the Academy, we should figure everything out..." Great Mage Mirlie begrudgingly replied
"Do you two mind if I figure some things out while you two discuss?"
"It's fine, just don't leave the room quite yet..." Sev replied
Nora immediately called upon her 'Status'

Nora scanned through the status. As she reached the 'Species' section she noticed the change from 'Human' to Human (98%)'. Naturally, Nora thought to herself, 'How can someone be 98% of a species? That just doesn't make any sense. Whatever that mysterious being did to her wasn't normal. This was by far something new to her. Just the feeling of new things to discover made her excited. She continued to go down the status until she realized the bloodline had once again changed. She knew she hadn't reached the next stage of Demonic Witchgod Transformations, whatever the being did was far more of a lateral progression than a vertical one. So this bloodline hadn't been from cultivation but rather granted to her by the mysterious being.

Suddenly the massive leap in accuracy made sense. This bloodline truly was a godsend. Having taken note of the numerical change in her power she began to delve into her new nine cores. Nora swore that she hadn't read anything about the nine cores, she had only ever read about of a single core.
She began to circulate her Mana in the same fashion she previously had to cultivate Demonic Witchgod Transformations and found that the nine cores were intricately connected. All working together to grow stronger and empower Nora. Through some form of amplification, Nora felt that she was progressing at a far faster pace than she previously had.
Since she was just testing things out she didn't want to delve completely into cultivation. She made sure to keep track of her cultivation and not to lose herself in cultivation. At least not for now.
While making sure she didn't fall into deep cultivation she could vaguely sense that the nine cores within her were somehow dilating time. Something so faint that only through vast experience in her previous life and personal experience manipulating the principles of time and space did sense the dilation.
Wanting to fully explore her cultivation she began to circulate 'Dragon King Incarnation'. Only to find that following the four dragons circulating within her, nine shadows involuntarily followed the four dragons around her body. They too, mysteriously tied to the nine cores.
She instantly knew that her encounter with the mysterious being was very beneficial towards her. She could barely contain the excitement within her.
Nora now with many future prospects and many things to look forward too, Nora with a smile wide across her face thought to herself,
'Everything seems to just keep getting better'
