Chapter 184

Stepping into Drake’s study, Winnie felt a sense of clarity wash over her.

She was familiar with the almost tangible energy in the air of the study, a sensation that pulled a barely noticeable twitch at the corner of her mouth.

Winnie knew Drake had an uncanny ability to soak up the energy from her Spirit Gathering Array, but she hadn’t expected him to use it not for himself, but as a decorative feature for the room!

What really got her goat was that the vibe in this study was almost as charged as the room where she had set up her own Spirit Gathering Array…

It felt like she was getting ripped off without realizing it.

Drake, catching her complex expression since she walked in, gave her a side glance and asked, “Something off about my study?”

Winnie turned to him, her eyes barely concealing a flicker of envy, “Nope, nothing at all.”

There wasn’t just nothing wrong; the place was brimming with energy.

Her mentor had once praised her as a prodigy, but she felt like, no matter her talent, she couldn’t hold a candle to Drake who seemed to be the favored child of fortune.

He just stood there, and the energies of the universe seemed to gravitate towards him, his aura as golden and impenetrable as Fort Knox.

She couldn’t compete, not by a long shot.

Winnie consoled herself silently and got to work without further ado. Setting up the Isolation Array wasn’t particularly tough, but it was a drain on her energy reserves.

She was running low on talismans too, which meant she had to draw them on the spot.

As she took out her tools, Winnie recalled how the energy she gathered for her talismans had previously drifted towards Drake, making her hesitate.

But it wasn’t like she could kick him out of his own house, so she steeled herself and started drawing.

Surprisingly, the anticipated siphoning of energy didn’t happen. As her pen touched the paper, it glided smoothly, brimming with a purified energy that made her work feel effortless.

It reminded her of the time she drew talismans in that old chapel, attributing the ease to the divine ambience. Now, she wasn’t so sure.
