Capítulo 239: Headmaster Ashcroft's visit

"Silas? What happened to you? How did you lose your arms?" A concerned elderly man abruptly entered the room, his expression a mix of shock and sorrow upon witnessing Silas's condition.

Silas, renowned as one of the kingdom's finest magic combat instructors, was revered by many at the magic academy. New instructors aspired to emulate his skill and expertise.

"Headmaster Ashcroft...?" Silas's eyes widened in surprise at the unexpected visitor. He looked to the elderly man, a sense of gratitude mixed with curiosity.

"I've heard about your condition for some time now, from Teacher Rowena, Instructor Silas." Headmaster Ashcroft nodded solemnly, taking a seat beside Silas, who lay on the bed, his face etched with sadness. He continued, "Upon returning from that distant place, both of you recounted much of what transpired during your journey... including the grievous injury that left you incapacitated."
