I groaned, leaning back on the chair, staring at the office ceiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why is Cecily dating that fucker?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This doesn't make any sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'No, that's not the problem.' The real problem is that Cecily is already too far gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the trigger event happens, she'll turn into the Villainess—the kind who'll burn the world down for Killian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Elijah said they started dating last year.' Apparently, during that school trip to Lumina, they were ambushed by the Demiurge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Killian saved Cecily, risking his life in the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, she confessed, and they started dating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'But nothing like that happened in the game.' I frowned, rubbing my temples, exhaustion creeping into every corner of my mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There's a memory—something Christina mentioned once—about the elves' deteriorating conditions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe this event was somehow tied to that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'This is so tiring.' Well, at least I know Uzume Highbloods have a higher chance of facing total annihilation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is... fascinating,\" Mariam muttered, snapping me out of my thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She held the pages I'd written—the ones with answers to Lirien's questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are those answers correct?\" I asked in confirmation, looking at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I won't say correct,\" she mumbled, placing the pages down. \"But they sure are thought-provoking.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good,\" I replied, reaching out. \"Now hand them back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced at me, reluctant. \"Can I keep them for—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nope.\" I snatched them out of her grasp. \"Not sharing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked regretful but just nodded, respecting my choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anyway, will this theory work?\" I asked, leaning back in the chair. \"Combining mana and Ruah?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't say for sure.\" She shook her head. \"In theory, it sounds plausible. But practically? Almost impossible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are the problems you see in it?\" I asked, nodding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She raised a finger, and the space beside her rippled as a tree branch materialized from thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ruah and mana are fundamentally different,\" she explained, the branch lightly patting my head. \"If you want to merge them, you'll need a medium.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I slapped the branch away. \"And what kind of medium are we talking about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't know.\" She replied, retracting the branch. \"In fact, no one knows about it—not even the first head of Segyal Highbloods.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I groaned, rubbing my eyes as I didn't get my desired answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Segyal's first head did conduct some research on it, but he wasn't successful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in his research, he couldn't find anything that can merge both of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'A medium, huh?' I thought, letting out a tired sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This will be a lot more problematic than I thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting back, I placed my hand on the desk as I stared at Mariam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" she asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I met Nymeria,\" I said bluntly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression instantly hardened. \"She threatened you, didn't she?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mariam let out a tired sigh, her expression turned sad as if she had aged a few years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I gave a short, bitter laugh. \"She told me to 'take care of Segyal Highbloods.' Then said she'd take it back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She fell silent, staring at her desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I did not disturb her as I leaned back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know,\" she began after a while, her voice wistful, \"Nymeria is special. So special that the World Tree itself blessed her at birth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I quietly nodded, letting her continue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are so many things different from the game that every little piece of information is welcome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My husband and Nymeria's grandfather, Hazar, were like brothers,\" she mumbled with a sad smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With Nymeria's birth, they thought that elves would once again be the strongest after the reign of the first Segyal head.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'But nothing like that happened.' Segyal Highbloods was massacred...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...And Ragnar killed Hazar—his own master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How strong is she?\" I asked as Mariam kept her silence for a long while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She condensed her mana years ago,\" she replied, coming out of her daze. \"I don't know how strong she is now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I nodded my head in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Condensing mana is the condition for reaching the Overlord rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Limiter—my current rank—is the best time for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From what I know, Nymeria is high Overlord, if not peak Overlord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that's her base rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have no idea how strong she is in Anastasia's Avatar form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'She is a tricky one,' I thought as I stood up from my seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where are you going?\" Mariam asked as I walked towards the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do I need to tell you that?\" I asked, glancing over my shoulder. \"Classes are already over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gave me a subtle nod, mumbling, \"Fine, but be careful about Gerald Highbloods.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know,\" I replied, glancing back at her. \"I need to be careful of every elf.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will protect you if necessary,\" she assured me with a gentle smile. \"So don't be on edge and enjoy your life—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I slammed the door of her office as I walked out, ignoring her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She really wants me dead in two years, doesn't she? Cursing my bad luck, I swiftly made my way out of the headmaster's building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The classes have already ended for today, and my first day in the academy wasn't the best.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Well, at least I wasn't ganged up by a group of randoms.' That's a relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if there's anything that I want to complain about, it's my mana-overdosed body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I really hate the feeling of my body getting molested by mana every time it's depleted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'That's exactly what's happening though.' I groaned at her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time I lose even a sliver of mana, the surrounding mana rushes in to refill it, overwhelming my body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with the filter handcuffs, it's too much for my body to handle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I need a solution, and fast.' It's funny how in just over a year, my problem had turned from mana deprivation to mana overdose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's so fucked up that I can't even train properly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Why are you stupid, Inna?' I grumbled as I reached the tube elevator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She replied, and I could imagine her pouting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'How can you be so old and still not know much about runes?' []\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Okay, geez, you are so sensitive about your age.' []\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'But you are not a girl—' I bit my tongue midway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her anger-filled voice echoed in my head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Nothing.' I replied, walking inside as the door of the elevator opened up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'To meet someone who more knowledge about the runes than you.' *******\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are a total of eight buildings out of thirty-four buildings of the academy that are dedicated to the teaching staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each one of them is huge, containing every facility a professor needs for their research—state-of-the-art facilities, private libraries, and experimental labs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They have everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite having a lot of advancements in technology, there are always things that aren't discovered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And those who want to leave their name in history always try to discover new things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knock! Knock!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I knocked twice in front of a professor's office before I took a step back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a few seconds, the door opened up, and a head peeked out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, Aunt,\" I said, waving my hand towards the black-haired woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Himmel?\" Aunt Hannah's dark eyes blinked in surprise as she opened the door wider. \"What are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Um, is Professor Yenna—effer here?\" I asked with a polite smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah looked at me weirdly before she moved aside. \"Come in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I smiled, walking inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is Aimar?\" she questioned, closing the door behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With Elijah,\" I replied as she walked beside me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You seem familiar with him and me,\" she said, narrowing her eyes. \"Do I know you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right, she doesn't know I am Azariah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know Aimar from back in Lumina,\" I replied, keeping the same smile. \"We aren't the bestest friends, but he does tell me about his family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I see,\" she mumbled. \"You do seem familiar.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I simply smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She might suspect, but she couldn't confirm anything unless I outright told her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There isn't any record of me being a person anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My mother had erased everything about my existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hannah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A familiar voice echoed within the place, making me look forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yennefer's office was enormous—easily twice the size of a lecture hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Runes and intricate diagrams were scrawled across the walls, glowing faintly under dim light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long tables were covered in organized chaos: papers stacked high, scattered vials, faint scorch marks, and half-finished projects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Coming,\" Hannah said as she rushed towards Yennefer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I looked at Yennefer curiously, making a complex rune on a large sheet of paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A marker,\" Yennefer said, extending her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here,\" Hannah passed the marker to her as she remained engrossed in her work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't even glance at me, even though I stood close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah looked at me apologetically, but I just smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I already know Yennefer takes her work seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her busy, I started to wander around the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The place was a heaven for me, who had ancient knowledge about runes from El.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can try to match my knowledge with the current time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed, and before I knew it, I'd settled into a corner, flipping through a book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SLAM!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door slammed open, startling me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mummmmmy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A girl with her hair tied in twin buns walked inside, rushing towards Yennefer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yennefer quickly stopped whatever she was doing as she smiled towards the girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What happened to my baby?\" she asked, embracing Zenith in her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A bad day,\" Zenith mumbled, resting her head on her mother's chest. \"A very bad guy joined my class.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh,\" Yennefer said, glancing at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had already noticed my presence, but Zenith hadn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, Aunt Hannah,\" she said without looking, waving absently in her direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah just chuckled and shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is he the boy who tried to propose to me today?\" Yennefer asked, taking a seat on a chair and making her daughter sit on her lap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, him,\" Zenith exclaimed, getting comfortable. \"I feel like strangling him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yennefer chuckled softly. \"He isn't that bad, is he?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He is,\" she said without raising her head. \"You don't know how infuriating it is to be around him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yennefer gently patted her daughter as she whispered, \"Well, I don't think he is bad.
