Sitting on the damp ground in the basement, Michelle stared at the ice pillar for a long while. She was wondering how fast the humidity would return if she pulled back the ice element spirit energy she had sent into the pillar. And since all her ice element spirit energy was spent, she decided to test it.
Standing up, she walked over to the pillar and placed her hands on it. Then, she started drawing the spirit energy back into her body through her palms. She controlled the spirit energy within the ice pillar and let it melt down. But the ice that had formed on the pillar stayed in place, still leaving a big, tall ice tube behind.
After recovering most of her spirit energy, Michelle smiled a bit and sat back down.
"What are you planning now?" Alexander Terce asked, his voice lazy and playful.
