Chapter 491: Living Shadow

Enjoying their time on the bench, Selen glanced up at the sky.

"How do you think I should improve? Even if I'm good at controlling stuff, there's still a limit to what I can do. It kind of worked on the Lord of the Forge but he broke out of it quickly and basically disarmed me." Selen asked, hugging her knees. 

"Wait what?" Egil blinked.

Since he had gone for a walk to clear his mind after seeing his mother, he didn't know that Alice and Selen had gone to meet the Lord.

Not only that, but she also used her skill on him? And it worked?!?!

"Well the Lord wanted to see what I was capable of so he asked me to demonstrate everything I know. After I did, he said I was holding back since I didn't use my new skill. Once I showed it to him, he blanked out for a moment. Just a moment and not long enough for me to do anything with that time." Selen explained, showing Egil the ring.
