Bab 80: 079 ※ Meddling Imperials [X]

"It makes sense," I said rougher than I intended and she looked at me confused.

"What makes sense?" What else?

"That you didn't know about it!"

"What do you mean by that?" What does she think I mean?

"I started swordsmanship because my parents realized that I was magic-less, Adelyn," actually, it was two weeks after I had my magic stolen away from me. "My family was pissed with me, saying that I was a disgrace, the biggest error to have been born is such a privileged House. Plus all of that fuss about the prophecy grandma had. But then, Master Thorin asked my father to let him take me under his wing to train me..." The memory of it made me laugh acidly.

When it all happened, everybody was against me. They all acted as if I was a freak. Even Asher. And in the very beginning, Master also treated me like a freak, although that was the reason why he liked me. He thought I was cute.
