章 159: Her Worries

"Why would you say no?" Desmond asked.

He was the first to speak up at Leonor's words. 

His tone was confused, but he was trying to be supportive. The way she lit up whenever magic was merely mentioned made him believe what King Stephano was organizing would be a dream for her. 

Since it would likely not happen immediately, he thought she would be able to get a better handle on her duties to Montclair before being able to pursue this endeavor. He couldn't think of a downside at that moment. 

Quinn spoke up shortly after Desmond, feeling he knew of Leonor's life with magic better than anyone. 

"As one of the top mages of your graduating class, it would be a waste of your talents to remain stagnant and never put them to good use," the silver-haired mage explained. "Your abilities will lose their strength and your mana pool will decrease if it goes unused. The strength of your mana is what makes you an adept defensive magic user."
