Most who walked the Psychic Path were feared not for their spells, but for their minds.
Unlike other branches, the cultivation of Psychic Arts demanded constant intrusion into thoughts, emotions, and memories.
Practitioners learned early to manipulate, deceive, and bend others to their will.
Over time, this eroded empathy, turning many into cold manipulators… That was why Odessa called them Psychopaths.
The stronger their Mental Energy, the easier it became to dominate others… and the harder it became to resist the temptation.
What began as discipline often ended in obsession. That was the reason why more than ninety percent of Psychic Arts practitioners eventually lost themselves to cruelty or madness since their brilliance was twisted into psychopathy.
Odessa knew this truth well.
That was why Vale's interest in Cielo wasn't that surprising…
Cielo's principle was firm as if no outside influence could bend his sense of justice or righteousness.
