After realizing the treasure in front of them, the group did not hesitate.

Because this meadow containing the lake was a hidden place, they didn't worry about the monsters attacking them, but for more security, Chris created a formation that covered the place to prevent anyone from seeing what was going on inside.

When they took all possible means of protection, the 3 took off all their clothes and belongings, they put them aside since they could be destroyed by the power of the lake and they entered the mystical lake.

*** *** *** Dawn *** *** ***

When Aurora heard Chris's explanation about the power of the lake at first she thought that he was just exaggerating a bit in order to imply the power of the lake, but once she entered the lake, the exaggeration that she believed was a bluff, it felt like he was underestimating the power of the side.

Upon entering the barrier of his magic power that could not exceed rank 4 was broken reaching rank 5 as if it were an extremely thin paper, but not only did it end in that, his body began to improve, while his magic power became more pure and denser according to this rhythm, she would be entering the 6th rank in about 6 hours.

For her who did not know that it would take her to enter the fifth rank of the manifestation, it would take her 1 or 2 months, she felt really complicated to achieve it in this way, Aurora had always been very diligent with all the work she did and had never neglected any of his responsibilities, making such an easy breakthrough made him feel like his hard efforts weren't enough after all his precious friends had made it without the help of the lake.

What Aurora didn't know is that with the help of the deity techniques they had if they didn't achieve 1/4 of the power, they had right now they would be no different than trash, what was amazing was Aurora that with her hard effort and without any external method achieved its current power.

Now that she was at rank 5, she could manifest her magic power more easily without any means.

When they fought against the bear, she created water barriers and cast fireballs manifesting her magical power, but what she used were not true manifestations as she transferred her magical power to her halberd which served as a means of manifesting spells, this method can be used with any magic power catalyst like beast cores, but this would drain more power, but now that he was a rank 5 he could do it directly without worrying about the excess consumption of being able to use magic directly.

While Aurora was happy about her progress, the halberd that was on the outskirts of the lake noticed the sudden changes in its current user, when she concentrated on the great energy that came from the lake, she did not hesitate anymore and headed towards the lake towards Aurora.

When Aurora realized that her prized halberd was next to her, she was surprised.

"What are you doing here"

Aurora said as she took it in her hands, but the moment she took it, she noticed that the energy she absorbed from the lake increased from a simple trickle to the descent of a waterfall.

This difference in power would have damaged her were it not for the halberd taking most of the power from her.

The halberd was not a normal item when Chris had checked it out, he was surprised as the material of the halberd was so precious that it would cause any upper world expert to covet since it had all the requirements of being a deity rank weapon. The only reason it was a mystical weapon is because the weapon was just an infant, its soul and consciousness hadn't developed and it needed its master to feed it his power in order for it to grow, which made him more confused because this type of weapon would be in the lower worlds, the reason why Chris informed Aurora of what she needed to become the master of the weapon is because she hoped that the weapon would choose her as its master so that when she went to the superior worlds Aurora could accompany them.

What Chris did not know is that when the weapon was created his first teacher was killed in an unexpected accident causing the weapon to lose its owner and that is why he was from one place to another going from person to person to look for a new teacher, but Since no one fulfilled its requirements, it ended up falling into the lower world, ending up on earth as a family heirloom since no one was able to see the true value of the weapon.

The reason why the halberd accepted Aurora as its user is because it was desperate since it had no other options, when the halberd saw Chris who met all its requirements, it tried to make the contract but a frightening aura that slept in the boy's body made her back, in addition to the fact that inside the boy there was a weapon already alive, despite the fact that this weapon seemed weaker than her, the sword was in a state of complete submission which allowed him to use the power of the child, which made her more depressed but seeing how the boy advised his user how to meet her minimum requirements, he decided to contribute for the girl, if she meets the minimum requirements he would form a partial teacher contract.

A partial contract is different from a full contract as the partial would make the user able to use the weapon as if they were the master and the weapon would not grow as large as a full contract as it could only take a small amount of power from the master, but in case her user disappoints her she could break the contract, in the case of the complete contract the weapon could not break the contract unless her master dies so she can find a new master, but in exchange for not being able to break the contract the weapon could take more of the master's power and grow faster.

When Aurora noticed the changes that surrounded her, a new power inside her began to appear, this was similar to the attribute of water that she controlled, but it was different, it was cold and icy, forming ice inside her, this change caused the body of Aurora will start to get colder as time goes on.

When she thought that she couldn't bear this new power inside her anymore, the power of the lake began to calm the cold in her body, causing the cold to slowly subside, even though the power of the ice did not disappear from her body, but that began to merge with her little by little.

And when I least expected it, before the fusion finished, the cryokinesis ability that I didn't possess appeared on her.

When the halberd in Aurora's hands, she noticed that the girl fulfilled her minimum requirements, she formed a partial contract with her, but when she did this, Aurora, who had already passed a great agony with the previous process, groaned in pain.

The halberd knew that this would make Aurora suffer, but it did because when he checked Aurora's new physique, he discovered that she could practice the same technique as her first teacher, the technique is called princess of purgatory according to her teacher it is a deity technique, but because its practice requirements, although not very high, the person will have to go through suffering as if in purgatory while learning the 1 chapter.

When Aurora saw the technique that the halberd had given her, she felt happy, but to see what would have to happen, she felt a little doubt if she should do it, but thinking about her best friends, that doubt did not last long.

"Those two, they will surely grow to the top, if I don't take this opportunity how am I going to be with them" thought Aurora as she gripped her halberd tighter and began to practice the new technique.

The next moment the enormous pain and agony that he had never experienced invaded his body to the point where even though he tried to scream no sound came out of his mouth without being able to release his cries.

After that her skin well cared for years began to crack, followed by her silky hair that lost its shine as if it turned gray looking like that of an old woman who never took care of it, her eyes little by little lost their shine as if it were to die at any moment.

Just when Aurora thought that everything was over and that she had made a bad decision, an unknown energy entered her body. She didn't know where it came from, but she felt familiar. It was colorless, but it had innumerable colored threads in it.

This energy began to calm the pain in her body and brought her back to her reason "Exactly what is this" Aurora asked, but instead of continuing to investigate she concentrated on following this energy that lured her.

Little by little the previous miserable state of hers began to reverse, her cracked skin began to fall off showing a new white skin as if it were the final porcelain, her hair regained its color, it became shinier and silkier than ever. what it was before.

After such a drastic change happened in Aurora, she noticed that she was already at rank 6, one step away from entering rank 7, in the same way she was at level 6 of chapter 1 of the princess of purgatory at a single level to complete the first chapter.

Seeing her enormous gains, Aurora once again gritted her teeth and continued to practice the technique once more, despite the fact that she no longer had the strange energy that helped her and the pain was much more horrible than before due to the increase in her physical strength and strength. mentally was much more tolerable than before.
