Duke's large basin of slime only used a little bit, most of it was still inside the Space Ring.
He knew that with his current abilities, it's challenging to fully utilize its potential.
That Shadow Water could integrate a slight bit was already a pleasant surprise; he still needs to wait until he becomes stronger to develop new uses.
Duke subsequently refined more than ten portions of Shadow Water containing a bit of Three-headed Dog slime and stored them in test tubes.
Because Shadow Water gets consumed, it's best to prepare some in advance.
…
Two days later.
Duke received a message from Hela asking him to come to the island to discuss some matters.
Hela was indeed a very good wizard, her appearance was intimidating, but her personality was quite gentle.
She never forced Duke to do anything; she always first consulted Duke's opinion.
It's rare in Black Sail for a Level 2 wizard to respect a wizard apprentice's personal wishes.
