"Little girl, don't resist. Empty your mind..."
A hazy, intermittent voice traveled along the energy vibrations of the Legendary projection. Ignoring the cat-eared maid's pleading eyes, Punk had already begun extending his perception deep into the "test subject's" soul.
According to the caster's calculations, if the gray energy that theoretically should not have existed here truly appeared within the maid warlock's soul, then finding proof with nothing more than a simple projection would take some time. After all, he had personally witnessed how well this gray energy concealed itself. Even for a Legendary spellcaster, locating gray energy at the Radiant Moon level without carefully examining it with a Legendary Level Divination Spell was no easy task. What stood in the Legendary Knight's palace now was merely a projection of Punk, so whether he discovered anything at all would partly depend on luck...
"Fortunately, the Telanxiu Perception Specialization Projection possesses perception nearly equal to a Legendary Level Divination Spell. Otherwise, this inspection would have been pointless. Even so, finding anything probably won't be... too easy?"
As he pondered, Punk used the deep-perception techniques he had practiced before to search the cat-eared maid's soul. At the same time, he considered whether he should continue searching if he found nothing, and whether he should firmly insist on it if Kane grew impatient.
