DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommentedAnd now she's the one who will be smart enough to save them!
A thought sprang to mind as she watched the scene in horror. Her eyes flew to the light spilling from the rune. All at once, she understood the rune's complicated mechanisms. Though there were slight differences, she realized it was similar to the golem rune she had spent months researching.- DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
Oh no, I called it in the last chapter once she said the rune was familiar!
Streaks of light branched out of the rune-like cobwebs, seeping into the statues scattered through the room. Maxi felt her blood run cold. Imbued with mana, the stone sculptures clattered to life and slowly began to move. Immediately recognizing the danger, one of the Temple Knights swung his sword. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
Familiar?! To the girl who was studying runes to make golems? In a room full of weirdly accurate monster statues?!
Having already crouched to trace it with her finger, Maxi slowly rose. The rune felt strangely familiar. After following its patterns, she summoned a light in her hand and raised it to illuminate the parts masked in shadow. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
I just love how far they've come as a couple, they may be fighting right now but she used to be so afraid that he would hit her.
Eyes widening, Maxi furiously shook her head. "O-Of course not! R-Riftan would never do such a thing!" - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
Ugh, he's startled out of his anger seeing her trauma response, that instinctive fear to be grabbed that way đ˘
Maxi recoiled as he clenched her forearm. Riftan promptly released her, looking deeply ashamed. After scrubbing his face as if scraping up the last of his patience, he backed away from her. She could see him trying to smother his emotions again. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
I KNEW IT!! I KNEW THEY WERE RELATED!! They have the same last name!!
"Uncle." - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
Wait wait wait, Ruth's last name is Serbel. Was Calto's last name referenced before and I missed it?? Are those two related??
Prodded on by Anton, Calto Serbel dismounted from his horse and replied in a curt but civil tone, "Thank you for your welcome. I am Calto Serbel, leader of this expedition, and these are the mages under my command." - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
When did Talon get here? He had a horse with an A name before, and I've been keeping an eye out for mention of Talon
He inhaled a lungful of the damp, icy wind and sheathed his sword. Talon appeared to be similarly exhausted from the constant march. The horse stood irritably stomping his hooves. After pacifying him, Riftan once again set out with his men. The soldiers silently followed behind. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
It's the call to the dragon campaign, isn't it??
The knight pulled a letter bearing the royal seal of Dristan. A servant swiftly accepted the letter and proffered it to the duke. As the Duke of Croyso slowly read, creases formed on his forehead. Clearly, he was not pleased with the terms. A long and uncomfortable silence ensued. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
There's the dude you'll bust a MF chair over someday!
The duke was not a large man, but his slim frame had a dignified bearing that he draped in garments of unbelievable opulence. Though the dark auburn curls Riftan remembered were now flecked with white, his austere face was the same. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
from what I remember, I don't think she actually is there. she didn't get to go out much at all, I think it's just her younger sister.
Though he was listening, Riftan could not pry his eyes away from the carriages. His mouth went dry, and his heart began to pound. Was she here? Overcome with the need to find out, he kept his eyes fixed on the covered window. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
Sounds kinda like Anatol tbh
Outside, the earth was frozen and silvery. The northwestern part of Balto was covered in snow and frost all year round, so much so that it astounded Riftan that people were able to settle and eke out a living in such a harsh environment. Though there was a vast meadow further east, even that was buried under white snow during Paxias. Furthermore, when the nomads moved south with their horses and sheep, the region became a no-man's-land teeming with monsters. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
He may not be crying, but I'M CRYING
Strangely enough, Riftan did not shed a single tear. He stood paralyzed, and it was only at the urging of his stepfather that he finally laid a flower in front of the shoddy headstone. When the humble ceremony ended, the mourners took turns offering their condolences. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
No wonder she was so mysteriously kind to him... She was saying goodbye.
Black hair, once enviably full of shine as if treated with oil, clung like a spider web to a pallid human face. It took a while for him to realize that the face was his mother's. - DaoistEUOHcl1yrCommented
The one day he had any happiness... This. And wreath was ruined. Our poor bb.
He stumbled back. His foot caught on the leg of a fallen chair, sending him crashing onto the floor. The wreath he had carried with such care lay squashed beneath him, but it was the last thing on his mind. Riftan blinked up in bewilderment. His mind could not grasp what he was seeing.
