Chương 40: Lady Isabella

Isabella stood in a lavishly furnished chamber, the soft glow of candlelight illuminating the room. She was entranced as she gazed at herself in the mirror, which reflected a woman exuding both seductiveness and maturity.

When she was still young, her father passed away, leaving behind a noble title that Isabella inherited. This granted her a position of power, which was a rarity for women in this strength-oriented world.

Due to her newfound status, despite being thirty years old, Isabella remained unmarried. She devoted herself primarily to managing her territory and studying the arcane arts. This dedication had propelled her to achieve the rank of Tier 2 Great Mage at such a young age, aided by her inherent talent and abundant resources.

However, after reaching such a pinnacle of strength, she found herself unable to advance further. She originally planned to go to the central continent, renowned as the birthplace of arcane arts, to further her magic.
