Anise passes Xania the memory cube as Xania infuses it with divinity, causing it to crack open as a bright light starts shining out of the cracks.
The surroundings, unlike before, don't change as Xania and Anise watch themselves a couple minutes ago as the memory ends.
“Hmm, I suppose it's still a work in progress,” Anise said as Xania nodded in agreement.
“I swear, I came here for another reason…” Xania said softly to herself.
“If you forgot then it probably wasn't important,” Anise said as Xania kept thinking for a moment before shrugging, “guess not,” Xania said, not bothering to think about it any further.
“I’ll keep trying, you should probably go first unless you want to stay here?” Anise asked, fully expecting Xania to go, which she did, teleporting back into their bedroom.
As Xania lies on the bed, she keeps thinking about what she forgot, unable to stop thinking about it, “come on… what was it?” Xania said softly to herself before remembering.
“Oh come on! I just came back!” Xania teleports back to Anise, confusing her.
“Anise, give me the magic circle for absorbing divinity!” Xania quickly grabs Anise's shoulders, shaking her.
“Alright alright, I got it, stop the shaking!” Anise pushes Xania off of her as she uses mana to make an imitation of the magic circle for divinity.
Xania memorizes the formula, checking multiple times as she gives a thumbs up before teleporting away again.
Xania ends up in a grass field as she uses the magic circle, absorbing in the nearby divinity as the nearby plants start wilting slowly.
Xania walks into the center of it, absorbing as much divinity as she is about to, repeating this process nonstop as her capacity very slowly increases.
Xania suddenly feels a small moving fluctuation behind her as she notices a phantom behind her.
“Oh, hi? I assume you were created from my still not great control and my constant divinity usage?” Xania said to the phantom as she waved bye to it, turning around to do her own things as it suddenly attacked her.
“What?” Xania said, dodging its attacks, “I thought these things couldn't attack? Why is it suddenly attacked with divinity, a small hole appearing in its body as it slowly gets patched up.
Xania blocks the attack with 3 layers of shield, the first 2 layers getting destroyed easily as the third barely holds.

“Oh yea right, divinity is a lot stronger than mana,” Xania starts sending attacks at it, using mana non-stop as it attacks back with beams of divinity, each beam causing a small hole to appear in its body as it slowly regenerates it, causing the surround plants to wilt immediately.
“This isn't fair,” Xania thinks, copying it to some extent as she starts shooting beams of divinity, making up for the lack in control with her higher quantity of divinity, mixed with some mana to increase its strength.
Xania keeps sending beams of divinity, some cyan, some blue and some black due to her unstable control over divinity and inability to properly mix them both together.
Xania suddenly gets hit by an unexpected attack from the side as the phantom prepares another attack, not strong enough to hurt Xania seriously but enough to cause some damage as Xania prepares to shield it.
As it tries to fire its attack, it dissipates due to using too much of its divinity, the very substance its body is also made of.
“What the hell was that? I'm gonna need answers from Davien since he seems to know quite a bit about divinity,” Xania teleports to her room as Davien appears there at the same time.
“Ah Davien, I was just about to—” Xania said as she got interrupted.
“Miss Xania, I can guess what happened due to the sudden fluctuations of divinity,”
“Oh, then what happened?” Xania asked, watching as Davien sighs.
“You wasted too much divinity due to your terrible control so the phantom had enough divinity to gain a slight bit of intelligence,” Davien said as Xania tried to create a phantom with intelligence.
Davien stops Xania just in time, grabbing her wrist.
“Are you crazy? If you purposely create one and make it too strong, it could escape due to you being too inexperienced with divinity to restrain it!” Davien scolds as Xania pulls her arm away annoyed.
“Fine, I got it, stop the shouting, it's icy so annoying,” Xania said as Davien grabs her wrist again, somehow grabbing it tight enough to the point Xania can't pull away.
“Don't even think about creating phantoms even if Miss Anise asks you to do so, it's too dangerous,” Daniel said as he let go of her wrist, disappearing quickly.
“What an irritating guy,” Xania mutters as she looks down at her wrist, still slightly surprised that Davien was physically stronger than her.
“I'll complain this time Anise!” Xania shouts out despite Davien probably being nowhere near enough to hear it.
“What's the problem anyways? They seem easy enough to deal with,” Xania complains softly under her breath again as she creates a small magic circle using some mana, the one made for absorbing divinity.
Xania starts adding modifications to it before creating a version with divinity to test its effects before finding a combination she's satisfied with.
“And this is why I love divinity and mana, they can do absolutely crazy things,” Xania smirks to herself, intending to use it on Davien as revenge.
Xania teleports back to Anise, excited to show her findings to her as she finds Anise on the ground, quickly running to her as she checks for signs of breathing, breathing a sigh of relief as she finds Anise simply fainted due to overuse of divinity.
Xania shakes Anise awake as she slowly stands up, her body partially weak from the lack of divinity.
“Anise! Don't do that again you idiot!” Xania shouts as she violently shakes Anise before getting pushed off.
“My lord, calm down okay? The only reason I fainted was due to an error, apparently the barrier had a hole in it, I could have sworn I patched it up when I entered,” Anise said as she started to think of possible causes by herself.
“Well… I may have forgotten?” Xania admits, looking ridiculously guilty as she does so, annoying Anise.
“Then what did you shake me for?!” Anise shouts, shaking Xania as she does so.
“Accident, sorry?” Xania said with a sheepish expression.
