There were only tays to deal with a Shadow One, lay a trap for the Shadoo, deal with the employer behind the Shadow

But how could he lay a trap for Elaru Wayvin when he had no idea what she was after? Without knohat she was after, hoould he even find her potential employer?

The only thing he kneas that she was participating in Muni exams However, Muni wasn’t his turf He was limited hat kind of traps he could lay there

Venric grunted “Lawrence, send so you can about Elaru Wayvin including whether she is one of the Shadows And if she is, information about her employer”

He paused slightly before continuing “Also, post a high priority Shadow Lodge ents inside Muni I’d like to hire one of the a scene”

Venric’s sharp eyes landed on Lawrence “I don’t care about the cost Kiel Rroda needs to be stopped fro the exam”

Torandson froe A stain in the Rroda family name

Venric Rroda would spare no cost to wipe away that stain before it can sully the reputation of the Rroda family

“Yes, your grace”

Muni Exams: Day 3

Rau Eryey was cale of aabout as if carried by the wind

It was a device which looked like a large flower pot or a cauldron decorated with s If one spread their mind over the crystallizer, they would feel layers upon layers of co inside the thick walls of the cauldron

To use the crystallizer, the h mana enters the cauldron to support its activation, the enchant a mana crystal

Technically speaking, y itself Therefore, a “mana crystal” wasn’t actually a crystal made out of mana Rather, it was a special kind of crystal which could entrap drops of mana within it

The crystallizer transmuted some of the mana into crystals that would trap the remainder of the mana within them

The process of crystallization looked as if the water was being condensed from air directly into ice S and expanding to fill the entire cauldron,beautifully under the light

The crystals looked precious and hard like gems, but in truth, they were neither precious nor hard Like ice, they wouldtrapped mana with every shed layer

They were a co enchantical artifacts, however, they weren’t precious for there were countless people out there whoon mana farms

Like norrewup the le drop remained

Rau Eryey picked up the beautiful yellow crystal he had just formed and showed it to the exaaze and made him focus on it

Today, Kiel found it hard to focus on the de elsewhere

When Elaru and him checked their exam rooms today, they realized that coincidentally, Kiel’s exam was in the first timeslot of the day When they saw the timetable, they looked at each other briefly and then, without the need to exchange words, made haste to reach the classroom in time

They flew straight to his classroo their invisibility and Reflection barrier

Thankfully, when they arrived, Rau had just opened the classroo the the crowd

And then, Rau Eryey started his explanation, that was completely the same as the test Kiel had participated in last year Without a single change

Soaze shi+fted froround

Unlike the previous sunny days, today, not a single ray of sunshi+ne was allowed to pass through the thick curtain of gray clouds

Kiel didn’t need to read the Sibyl’s Weather Forecast to be able to tell what’s ahead of them
