Arthur watched her working with her brush. She dipped the brush into the cup she made before starting to draw.

Things seemed vague to him from his position. Plus he was totally focused on monitoring the energy output from the ore.

If the energy showed any signs of going berserk, he wouldn\'t hesitate to pull Sara out.

Contrary to his worries, and as time passed by, the purple aura coming from the ore didn\'t increase. Instead it showed marks of decrease. He watched the fiery aura coming from the ore getting dimmer with time.

"She is doing great," he couldn\'t help but commend in a pleased tone.

\'She knows what she is doing,\' the golden dragon said, \'I bet she\'ll be able to control the ore in one go.\'

"Are you confident in her ability or her beauty?" Arthur teased his golden dragon and the latter laughed.

\'It\'s because of the beginner\'s luck,\' the golden dragon said amidst his laughs, \'but after that I can\'t tell. Let\'s wait and see. But if you ask for my opinion, I\'ll bet on beauty everytime!\'

"I knew it," Arthur grinned before returning to watch Sara. As the golden dragon expected, the beginner\'s luck worked its magic and she finally managed to suppress all the aura of the ore.

In Arthur\'s eyes, that ore turned from a glowing piece of fire into a piece of cold ore. What was left from the old purple aura was the shining purple light that kept shining and fading like it was a beating heart.

"Finished," Sara turned to him and at this moment Arthur could see the dots of sweat covering her entire face. "I believe it\'s safe to use."

"Give it to me," Arthur walked in person inside the circle before catching the ore that Sara just threw. "You go out," he said before watching her shrug and move outside.

He held the ore in his hands and felt its aura. As expected it felt colder. Also the sense of danger he used to feel from it vanished.

"Time of truth," he took out his sword and without any hesitation crashed it over the ore. He didn\'t use physical force alone, as he knew it wouldn\'t be effective against the purple energy.

The purple energy was unique in that aspect. It only reacted to other forms of energies, and not physical force.

As he activated his sword technique and smashed over the ore with his sword, the ore got smashed into many pieces.

However at this moment Arthur\'s eyes shone brightly in blue light as he saw a scene he was familiar with.

"Take me out, now!" without waiting to know what went wrong he instantly vanished from the place using the portal next to him. And the next moment, an explosion occurred.

"Roar!"

It was like a captive beast got unleashed! The explosion was so mighty that it made Arthur doubt the effectiveness of the ore circle he laid before.

But the circle lasted and managed to contain even this berserk form of the purple energy.

"What… Did you do it?!!" Sara was shocked and startled by what just happened.

"I needed to make sure it won\'t explode when implying it inside the currency," Arthur simply said before adding, "and I was right. The sealing process of yours isn\'t bad, but it isn\'t perfect either."

"…"

It wasn\'t nice to stand like this, after succeeding in something this challenging, and hear such bad feedback about what you did.

So Sara remained silent and slightly dejected. However Arthur didn\'t have only negative comments for her.

"You did great," he said in praise, "you managed to tame the berserk energy and seal it strongly under many symbols. However the approach itself isn\'t enough to securely seal this purple ore."

"What… Do you mean by that?" after taking a deep breath, Sara asked while trying to forget what happened and what he just said earlier.

"I mean you are trying to suppress the nature of this ore."

"What\'s wrong with that?" Sara didn\'t follow his meaning so far.

"You need to change its nature, not suppress it," Arthur explained, "if you tried to suppress something, then at some point it would explode free from your prison. And that explosion would come with much worse damage than before. Just like what happened now."

"Changing its nature…" Sara couldn\'t help but frown while deeply thinking about his advice.

"Just think about it," Arthur said, "the nature of this ore is to react to any energy. If we changed that, then even without the need to suppress its powers, it would still be safe."

"Brilliant," Sara couldn\'t help but comment in sincerity, "but doing this… might change the nature of the ore itself. It might not be as explosive as you wanted it to be."

"It will cut a good piece of it, I admit that," Arthur shrugged before adding, "but it\'s a beast to begin with. Even if we cut half of its power, the remaining half will still be overbearing and pretty much useful to us."

Sara nodded in understanding before stepping inside the circle. The place was covered into black charcoal, giving an eerie feeling to anyone.

But she was already in another realm of her own. She was deeply thinking about Arthur\'s words and trying to find a proper way to do it.

And Arthur stood on the side, totally in silence, respecting her thinking. He waited for a long hour before she finally started to move.

\'Be ready to grab her out,\' he warned Gege, \'this time the ore might act unexpectedly fiercer than last time.\'

\'Got it!\'

Arthur wasn\'t exaggerating when he said that. He knew changing anything\'s nature wouldn\'t be this easy feat to make.

As expected, just after one minute the ore started to grow berserk.

"Take her out now!" Arthur didn\'t hesitate to give the order and Gege complied.

Just before Sara would appear next to him, a more violent explosion occurred.. This time the ores around seemed unable to contain the full outburst of the explosion.
