"A new spell?" David's eyes lit up with interest.
Amy shyly nodded and, after freeing herself from the lord's embrace, quickly dressed.
Then, with flushed cheeks, she began to feel the new ability she had gained.
Following this breakthrough, she could clearly sense a stronger mastery over her ice powers.
In addition, a true spell imprint appeared in her mind.
By channeling this spell imprint with her mental energy, she could instantly summon ice in her hand, forming an ice spike.
A large amount of magical energy continued to converge into the ice spike, causing it to quiver slightly, releasing an extraordinarily powerful magical aura.
Though it was just a simple ice spike, David could sense its extraordinary nature.
This magically condensed ice spike's power far surpassed that of an ice spike formed using elemental affinity alone.
"Try it out the window," David suggested.
Amy nodded, maintaining a forward-pushing stance as she turned toward the window.
The ice spike floated in front of her, moving along with her, soon aligned with the open window.
Whoosh—
The ice spike shot out suddenly.
Under the night sky, it flew like an arrow, disappearing into the horizon in an instant.
The speed was comparable to an arrow shot by a third-stage knight with a powerful bow.
Moreover, the presence of strong magic and ice power made this ice arrow far more potent than a regular arrow.
"Let's go take a look," David said.
Amy nodded happily, checking her clothes.
David already moved forward, lifting the young witch into his arms, and jumped out the window, swiftly heading towards Frostwolf Forest behind the castle.
Soon, they reached the spot where the ice spike had struck, finding a large tree shattered and frozen by the spike's terrifying power.
Not only that, but the ground around the tree was also frozen.
David assessed the scene seriously, concluding that Amy's spell's power was nearly equivalent to an attack from a typical fourth-stage earth knight!
Amy was equally astonished, hardly believing the attack effect was from her own conjured ice spike.
"What do you call this?"
"Ice... Ice Arrow."
"That name suits it."
David nodded with a smile. It seemed to be the simplest ice spell.
In terms of wizard spell levels, it was akin to a zero-ring cantrip, not even a true spell, yet it was already quite powerful.
In comparison, his abilities, such as Frost Breath, Winter's Curse, and Ice Control, were more like spell-like abilities.
Of course, determining whether spell-like abilities were stronger or weaker than zero-ring cantrips was uncertain, as many cantrips evolved from spell-like abilities.
"Thank you, my lord," Amy said sincerely, knowing she wouldn't be who she was without him, nor would she have the meditation method to become an ice witch.
"Oh?"
"So how will you thank me?"
David chuckled, placing a hand on a tree.
The young witch leaned against the tree, her heart racing after being pinned.
Seeing the lord's mischievous smile, she recalled the sounds from when the lord and Sister Rena were on the rooftop.
Her face reddened even more, eyes filled with panic.
Here...?
The naïve young witch glanced around, unsure.
"Teacher..."
"Can we... can we go back to the classroom first?" she whispered.
David felt a moment of disappointment, knowing Amy was shy and not pressing further. Role-playing seemed fine to him, making him feel a bit warm again.
Soon, he carried Amy back to the study, noticing her fatigue, deciding not to proceed with dual cultivation immediately.
"Come, rest for a bit."
"I'll tell you more about water molecules."
David smiled and began teaching again.

With Amy's breakthrough, the practice effect improved significantly, now comparable to Rena's results.
Unexpectedly, he had directly acquired the Ice Arrow cantrip through dual cultivation with Amy!
"It really works!" David felt instant joy.
Having witnessed the power of Ice Arrow, he knew his ice affinity and control would enhance its potency further.
He believed he could use Ice Arrow to directly eliminate a fourth-stage earth knight!
Acquiring the Ice Arrow spell through dual cultivation thrilled him, as it meant he could gain other spells this way too.
"Amy, I truly love you."
Hearing this, Amy, though tired, smiled sweetly.
"Amy, can you continue?"
"Yes, my lord."
David moved closer again, gently cherishing the adorable young witch.

After a night of delight, David held the young witch in his arms as they drifted to sleep.
"My lord, if you're still not satisfied, you can find Cynthia," Amy said apologetically.
She sensed the lord's desire but couldn't fulfill her duties as a wife, feeling deeply guilty.
"What are you saying?"
"Tonight, I just want to be with you, hold you."
David gently stroked the young witch's hair, full of affection.
Though his body wasn't fully satisfied, his heart was immensely content, feeling utterly relaxed while holding the young witch.
