In the realm of her consciousness, Noa found herself puzzled by her ancestor’s actions.

“Why are you doing this? Didn’t you once say I shouldn’t tell anyone about you residing in my mind?”

The ancestor had explained her reasoning back then: @@novelbin@@

“If your family found out there was an ancient spirit from ten thousand years ago residing in your mind, even if I meant no harm, they would try every possible means to drive me out. That would undo all the efforts we’ve made together.

Furthermore, I worried that such knowledge might attract remnants of the Dark Sect. Among them, there are extremists who, upon learning of my existence, would go to any lengths to eliminate you, hoping to aid their master’s return.”

And so, for all this time, both Noa and her ancestor had acted in secrecy, keeping their connection hidden from everyone.

But now, with her ancestor openly revealing herself to her two younger sisters, Noa naturally felt curious.

“The efficiency of gathering primordial power has been slow lately. Beyond your physical limitations and the lack of support from the Night Spirit Crystal, there’s another reason. Do you know what it is?” the ancestor asked.

Noa thought for a moment, then shook her head.

“External distractions.”

The ancestor explained, “Over these past few months, we’ve been gathering primordial power every night after your training, which requires absolute focus. But we’ve had to remain vigilant, careful not to alert others to what we were doing. This division of attention inevitably reduces the efficiency.”

“You understand, the ‘others’ I’m referring to are mostly your two younger sisters.”

“I wouldn’t be so concerned about Moon; she’s gentle and harmless. But that pink-haired one… she causes more trouble than the entire Dragon Clan civil war.”

Listening to her ancestor’s complaints, Noa scratched her head.

“Is it really that exaggerated?”

“You don’t realize it because, most of the time, I have to keep an eye on your surroundings while aiding your gathering of primordial power.”

The ancestor sighed.

“Hmph. You can just focus on condensing your primordial power, but I have to think about everything else.”
