Chapitre 51: Advancement

Lassim approached Master Ferrum. The afternoon light cast long shadows across the ground.

"Master," Lassim stated, hesitantly to slowly awaken his master.

Master Ferrum's sharp eyes opened and met Lassim's. "Your progress is commendable, Lassim. You've done well under Elder Valeria's tutelage. I can sense you still have regrets about what happened to Lustria, but the past cannot be rewritten. You've done well to channel that into your training, and I've seen it all. With your increase in strength, I will have a special task for you."

Lassim absorbed his master's words, finding a measure of peace in them. "Yes Master?"

Master Ferrum shifted the topic to Lassim's cultivation progress. "You've reached Spirit Incubation 7, Lassim. It's an unheard of feat in the usual cultivation here in Nexaria to not be held back by the cultivation bottlenecks that would restrict your level by age. I'm still quite puzzled by it."

Lassim listening, tilted his head.
