Chapter 774
“Come in,” Ben yelled out at the knock on the door, with it opening to Sachel and Delair, the latter looking like a ball of energy while the first spoke up.
“Thanks again for this Ben.”
“Don’t worry about it, but Delair, remember I can be a tough teacher. You wanted to learn from me during a busy time which means I’m going to make you learn as much as physically possible. You ready?”
“I am!”
“Perfect. In that case, put this on.”
He tossed her a circlet and Sachel immediately knew its point, with Ben’s unsold stock of them still infamous in town even with everything else going on while his student did as he said, placing it on her head and feeling as her mind split.
She didn’t immediately heave like Sachel had been expecting though. Ben had plenty of experience with experimenting on the minds of others by that point and even if splitting one was never going to be comfortable, he’d long learned how to keep it manageable, at least to a point. The more he tried to split the worse it would be but there’d be no harm leaving the girl with three.
A flash of discomfort passed her face but she quickly got used to it, even if it didn’t go uncommented on. “This feels weird.”
“Ha, you’re going to get used to it, you’ll be wearing that a lot while you work. Now it’s just going to get a little weirder.”
