Bab 1256: Ambush [7]

The whole world stopped for a moment.

There reached a point where the laws held more spirituality than those who wielded them. Because of how much they meant to the universe, they realized the ability to choose who was worthy of their power.

These laws were extremely esoteric. They became picky to the point where only a handful of people in the entirety of existence could be chosen to be their users.

Iris was one of those people, chosen at birth by her law.

But she had been unable to live up to its expectations.

It wasn't her fault, of course, but laws were objective. They did not hold emotions like living entities to look upon situations and understand why things turned out a certain way.

But, Iris was never abandoned.

She never abandoned her affinity, but because of her repressed memories, she refused to show it to the world.
