After a heartfelt farewell to Rosalinda and Aitio, Lanci and Tata left the magnificent office.
"Tata, change back to your original form."
Lanci said to Talia beside him.
Earlier this afternoon, Talia had been taking the Platinum Level Card Maker exam; once she was recalled, Lanci could slowly recover his mana.
Talia glanced at him but did not speak.
Still, she vanished on the spot, merging into Lanci's Soul Space.
She felt that this guy seemed to really start treating her as if she was one of his Magic Cards.
After rounding a staircase corner, Lanci was left alone.
He walked along the corridor, with walls on both sides lined with murals of the Lost Empire and ancient plaster niches that stretched for tens of meters; his footsteps were swallowed by the thick carpet, leaving the hallway eerily silent.
"I'm going to rest now, call me if you need anything."
The thought from Talia came.
"Alright, alright, go and rest."
Lanci replied in his mind.
