Five hundred

Standing right in front of the line of trees separating the beach from the proper forest, I made sure to keep the princess behind me as I created a single, one-meter long strand of entropy. I didn't even realise where using this destructive force that once almost killed me transformed into the first tool I would use in almost any situation as if my other forms of magic didn't exist.

While it was worrying that I lacked any creativity when it came to using my tools, it was a surprisingly good thing for now. WIth how I had no idea who and when would watch me working, limiting myself to just one form of extraordinary means could give them the wrong idea that it was all I was capable of!
