章 57: Blood Blade

"Fine, I can see what you mean, but that is just one spell, and I could have defended against it if I had been prepared," Listenia said, and I sighed.

"There are multiple spells that could land you in trouble if three or more people ganged up on you. Magic beats out strength every time; that's just the way it is. You can always bring more people to use magic, and there is only so far that natural resistance goes," I explained, and Listenia looked down.

"Why do I feel like a child sitting next to you?" Listenia asked without looking up.

"Because I am much older than I look, in experience. I have lived countless lives, yet I remember none of them. I am connected to Tallia somehow, but I don't understand how, nor will she say. The only memories that I do have are in my muscles. I have knowledge of everything that I have learned at the tips of my fingers. I still have to train to catch my body up to what I am capable of," I explained, and Listenia looked up at me wide-eyed.
