”If thatʼs the case, then how did you plan to survive as my exclusive Pixie?” Wyatt asked Dredre in shock learning that the Pixie had such a law. If this was the case, then why did Zaltan send Dredre to him? 

”I did not think that far ahead. But everything is working out ainʼt it,” Dredre said as he continued to munch on expensive soul energy ingredients. 

”If no quality and quantity of foreign soul energy cannot satisfy your hunger why did you ask me to buy all this?” Wyatt had almost emptied the wealth the VR-Universe had gathered to buy Dredre high-quality soul energy food so he was aggrieved to learn that none of it would help satisfy Dredreʼs hunger. 

”Well, not all of it is waste. With this, I will be half-full. Besides you offered,” Dredre said but never stopped stuffing her face. She appeared to be addicted to eating the foreign soul energy food but it wasnʼt doing her any favor hunger-wise. Well, she was not wrong. Wyatt was the one who enthusiastically offered to buy this expensive shit. Well, he wanted to thank her for the pixie dust and for enlightening him about the true power. 

”How long can you survive without food, will it have any adverse effect on you?” Wyatt felt that considering Zaltanʼs love for pixies he would not have sent Dredre to him to starve her to death. There had to be a way around it or food was not necessary for the pixies. 

”Um…” For the first time, Dredre did not directly answer Wyatt but rather trailed on purpose, unexpected behavior from a Pixie, especially Dredre. 

”I promise to continue to buy you high-quality soul energy food,” Wyatt promised feeling that Dredre was worried if he knew the truth he would not buy her high-quality soul energy food. 

”Well, Pixie can feed on soul energy gathered from the spiritual plane but it is a very tedious and long process to do it by ourselves so we create forest spirits to do that for us,” Dredre confessed. It turns out there was more to why the pixies liked to create forests wherever they went.

Zaltan must have known this so he was not worried about Dredre starving to death following Wyatt around. However, this made sense to Wyatt, as he always wondered what incentive the Pixies have to build forests and if the legends were true, what incentive the Primordial Pixies have to build realms, It is because forest or realms were just their soul energy production house. Pixies were really like farmers planting crops. 

Listening to Dredre, Wyatt was not angry rather he was enlightened when heard her say that the pixies can gather the soul energy in the spiritual plane and feed on it. When he heard this, he could not help but think, ʼWhy did I not think of this?ʼ 

Wyattʼs spiritual body in the spiritual plane started to make use of soul energy manipulation in the spiritual plane to gather soul energy. Soon Wyatt understood what Dredre meant when she said that gathering soul energy in the spiritual plane was a tedious process. As the soul energy in the spiritual plane was like wind present everywhere, one can feel it but never catch it. 

Even with Wyatt running the soul energy manipulation to its max, he could barely gather soul energy at this rate it would be hours before he could gather sufficient soul energy. Wyatt wondered, why could the pixies not gather the soul energy easily but the forest or realms they created could. 

Celestial Force was the thing that helped the forest or realms gather soul energy from the spiritual plane. For some reason though Pixie could negate the strongest of the Celestial Forces with a flap of their wings but did not seem to possess Celestial however, the forests or realm created by them did. 

Thinking of this, Wyattʼs spiritual body in the spiritual plane mobilized its Celestial force with the soul energy manipulation and what do you know the time it took Wyatt to gather sufficient soul energy from the spiritual plane decreased by a large margin. So Wyatt thought, ʼNo wonder the Pixie relied on their forest or realm to gather the soul energy from the spiritual plane.ʼ

The forest created by Pixies in another realm did not possess the celestial force of their own but borrowed the spiritual force from the realm they were in, this was possible because the forest spirit was assimilated by the realmʼs will. As for the realms created by the pixies, the answer was obvious. 

Having learned to gather soul energy from the spiritual plane and with his gigamite physique, Wyatt could now even survive in the depths of the void devoid of life or soul energy. When the Viltronianʼs body entered the Earth, though his physique allowed him to survive the void he did not have the soul energy to be awake instead had to enter hibernation to save himself from dying of soul energy exhaustion. For the present Wyatt, in such a scenario, would not have to resort to hibernation to save the last of the soul energy in his system because now he could gather soul energy from spiritual energy for his use, he did not need to be dependent on a realm to do that for him. 

Take Card World or the Dark Realm for example, all the beings on both these worlds were dependent on these realms to gather soul energy from the spiritual plane and introduce it into the physical plane. However, now Wyatt who had his celestial force and could exist on both planes no longer had to rely on the realms to gather soul energy from the spiritual plane for him. 

Yet Wyatt was not yet fully independent as he still had to rely on the rules of the card world to comprehend the rules. Having explored the mystery of the soul energy to some extent Wyatt wondered what the rules were. How did the worldʼs will come to possess them?
