'Holyshit, I did not think pixies could be angry. However, I can't take her anger seriously with her chibi body,' Wyatt thought looking at the fuming Dredre. He did not hurry to explain himself. Rather he waited for Dredre to throw her fit and once she was done, exhausted, and mentally stable enough to hear him out, then he could talk some sense into her. 

Was Wyatt being selfish? Was he as greedy as the Librarian for Dredre's pixie dust? If Dredre wanted to eat foreign soul energy ingredients for her diet, then who was he to stop her? Her body, her choice. 

Wyatt did not care if his actions were the same as that of the Librarian or Belphegor, he believed there was more to the side effects of Dredre consuming foreign soul energy ingredients than the decrease in the quality of the soul energy she produced and the exorbitant cost of the ingredients. 

These side-effects might be obvious in the short term and there might be side-effects that could only surface after a long term. Not to forget the change in her. The forest guide or book guide Dredre would never raise her voice or get mad at Wyatt. Wyatt felt that the foreign soul energy to the pixie was like booze to humans. 

"You have done," Wyatt asked Dredre who was huffing and puffing unable to think of words she hadn't already used to yell at him in anger. She was like that kid, high on sugar, whose parents just confiscated her Halloween haul. So cute! To Wyatt's surprise, Dredre's pink translucent dragonfly-like wings were very expressive when she was angry, proving that they were meant for attack rather than defense. 

"..." Dredre cutely glared at Wyatt, she was more expressive and real now than when he met her first time at the infinity library. He did not mind Dredre being a brat and spoiled on that. He knew it would be a mistake but he could afford it. 

"Well, I was wondering if you could borrow my celestial force to gather soul energy from the spiritual plane faster," Wyatt knew Dredre was not in the mood to her a lecture on what she should and not do, so instead he decided to involve her in one of the experiments that he had thought of once he knew that he could use soul energy manipulation and celestial force in combination to gather soul energy from the spiritual plane. 

"I don't see why not, I do the same with celestial force the forest spirits borrow from their realm," Dredre was surprised that Wyatt did not lecture but she did not forget that he had confiscated her stash. She was about to ask him to return it but listening to him she began to wonder if what he proposed was possible and lost track of her thoughts before unknowingly becoming invested in Wyatt's project. 

"Come on, let us give it a try, tell me what I need to do," Wyatt said with high enthusiasm which infected Dredre. 

Pixies were able to make use of their bond with their forests to help themselves and their forests gather soul energy from the spiritual plane at a faster and more efficient rate. Wyatt's experiment involved him replacing the forests from this equation. Wyatt had no idea how pixies and forest spirits worked together but If he was able to assist Dredre with his celestial force then he would be able to directly benefit from the various buffs the pixies would normally give to their forests. 

"Well, you do not have to do anything, just feed your celestial force to my wings when I ask. I do not know if we will get the same results but it is worth a try," Dredre was excited to try using Wyatt's celestial force to gather soul energy from the spiritual plane that forgot about what led to this. She was happy to be able to play with her friend. The ugliness earlier had only brought them closer. 

"Okay, then do your thing," Wyatt nodded, understanding his role was that of a celestial force battery for Dredre. 

Dredre flew on top of Wyatt, back in the spiritual plane on top of Wyatt's spiritual body Dredre's petite spiritual body became visible. The soul energy in the spiritual plane automatically began to gather around Dredre, her wings had yet to show their magic, they already attracted more soul energy than Wyatt's spiritual body did with soul energy manipulation. 

This was when Wyatt knew the cosmos loved Pixies and he should upgrade his soul energy manipulation skill, even with baptism its effects were very disappointing when compared to that of Dredre's. It wasn't fair of him to compare the Darling of the Myriad Realms with the Unknown neglected ones, but the truth was Wyatt's soul energy manipulation skill could be better for its present rank. 

When Dredre's spiritual body's wings began to vibrate the soul energy gathering it drastically increased. The density of the soul energy around Dredre was comparable to that of the card world. Witnessing this, Wyatt could only further laminate that his soul energy manipulation skill was seriously lacking and desperately needed an upgrade. 

"Wyatt now," Dredre signaled. Wyatt then mobilized his measly celestial force into Dredre's wings as a result the density of the soul energy in her surroundings increased exponentially. So much so that it spread to Wyatt's spiritual body and surrounded it. 

This result was way better than Wyatt could achieve when using the soul energy manipulation and his celestial force in a combo. However, this was far from satisfactory for Dredre. So she did not stop, back in the physical plane, her physical wings began to shower pixie dust atop Wyatt. Under the influence of the pixie dust, the quantity and quality of Wyatt's Celestial force directly increased, giving her wings in the spiritual plane an improved and increased Celestial force. Allowing it to gather so much soul energy that it was denser than water. But that did not last long as Dredre consumed it all to quench her hunger and concluded the experiment. 

"Wyatt, I am sorry. I hope you can forgive me for my behavior earlier," In the physical plane, Dredre directly flew next to Wyatt and hurriedly apologized to him. Now that her hunger was no more the effect of her addiction to the foreign soul energy decreased drastically and she returned to her old professional self. 

"Dredre, you are apologizing for the wrong reasons," Wyatt was not surprised by Dredre regaining her old self. He liked her work ethic, he thought she resembled a mini Susan. 

"..." Dredre went over the events in her brain trying to figure out what Wyatt was talking about but she couldn't so she looked at him in confusion and self-blame. 

Noticing that Dredre was blaming herself for what happened, Wyatt shook his head and did not drag it long said, "I liked the Dredre from earlier, she was fun and she felt like the real you. I know you are here on a job and need to maintain some professional standards but Dredre, it is me. We are friends, right? If you consider me as a friend you have to be 100% with me just like I am with you."

"Wyatt, this is the real me, the one you so earlier just an unwound version of me," Dredre spoke, she was happy had Wyatt did not seem to mind her behavior. 

"Well, then it seems I need to give you some foreign soul energy ingredients more often," Wyatt said. 

"No, I no longer need to rely on those. Since I can gather enough soul energy for myself with the help of your celestial force," Dredre responded while vigorously shaking her head. She acted like a colleague who was ashamed to have got drunk at the office party and embarrassed herself. Well, all sides of Dredre were cute. Wyatt could not be mad at her, his celestial force covered Dredre and carried atop his shoulder speaking his heart, "Dredre, remember one thing I can never get angry at you." 

Feeling cringe, Wyatt hurriedly changed the topic asking, "Dredre, let us try gathering soul energy from the spiritual plane but this time let us use it to form Soul Jades in the physical plane and then see if we can make liquid soul energy. What do you say?" 

"Wyatt, there is no need to do that. The soul energy I gathered earlier was enough to make low-quality liquid soul energy in the physical plane. As otherwise it would not be enough to satisfy my hunger. If your celestial forces get stronger we have no problem creating top-quality liquid soul energy," Dredre rejected Wyatt's request feeling it was pointless as she already knew the answer. Instead, shared her conclusion with him. 

"I see. Dredre, can't you directly borrow the celestial force from the realm just like you did with me why go through the trouble of creating a forest spirit?" Wyatt asked in confusion. If Dredre could borrow anyone's celestial force then why not borrow from the realm she was in instead of building a forest and have it borrow the celestial force of the realm for her? 

"There are two reasons for that…"
