New Element

The nobles were looking at Henry, and several of the women were sending him flirty teases. He, on the other hand, remained calm and serious.

"Riel, how can I get stronger?" Looking down at his hand, Henry inquired. His hand had a little vine sprouting out of it.

I could see him sweating heavily; I'm sure even forming a modest vine was difficult for him because he had just received his element.

But it was his inquiry that piqued my interest. I've known him for a few months, but he's never been serious about growing stronger.

He said he would work hard because of his father, but he never did. So why is he so serious now?

"That is not typical of you. In any case, we'll discuss it afterwards. It's my turn now." As I walked towards the crystal ball, I remarked.

The official did not pay attention to me when he called out my number. I was the first commoner to take the exam.

And no one expects much from a commoner, much less from someone as ordinary as myself.
