Chapter 248: Awakening Second Bloodline

Eleanor regained consciousness shortly after she had been brought to the healer’s pavilion. The healer on night duty examined her and found nothing amiss. Her body bore no visible injuries.

Hearing that, Professor Sylpha finally allowed herself a breath of relief, though her voice carried a trace of annoyance.

"I told you not to reach for powers beyond your limit. But you never learn to keep your greed in check. Well then, what happened? Did you receive your item?"

Eleanor managed a faint smile. "Believe me, Professor, I wasn’t tempted by power. I chose what seemed like a rather ordinary one. But I was sent into a trial with a very difficult riddle. I became so invested in solving it that I overexerted myself."

The professor regarded her impassively. "Fine, fine. At least you succeeded in receiving your gift. Stay here for the night. The healers will examine you again in the morning, and you’ll go directly to homeroom after that."

"Thank you, Professor," Eleanor said sincerely.

Once the professor had left, Eleanor lay back on the bed, her thoughts drifting towards what had happened.

"I didn’t receive a weapon or tool," she mused silently, "but the power I gained might be far more useful. Nora, I remember seeing some kind of system window. Can you bring it up for me?"

"No, Master," Nora replied gently. "It was an information window that appeared only at that moment. I did not see it directly... I found it through your memory. But I can recreate a copy for you. I also examined your third eye. There really is an eye hidden beneath the skin of your forehead. It lacks lashes or any outer features... it is only an eye. But I cannot probe it further; an energy field surrounding it blocks my scan."

Eleanor took the revelation in stride. "Alright, then. Show me the window."

A translucent panel shimmered into view before her mind’s eye:
