Capítulo 272: Focused Study

August stood quietly in his chamber, the weight of the situation pressing down on him. He noticed that the spiritual imprint embedded in Estefaria was inactive at the moment. It seemed that Great Sorcerer Limestone Shield had chosen to hold off on using it, likely to avoid alerting him to its presence. This was a tactical decision, one that August recognized as an attempt to maintain the element of surprise. However, he was determined not to be caught off guard.

In order to keep Limestone Shield in the dark about his awareness of the spiritual imprint, August decided to let Estefaria remain oblivious to the entire matter for now. There was no way that Limestone Shield would suspect that August had sensed the hidden imprint. No apprentice had intricate and absolute control over every inch of their spiritual sense other than him.
