Chương 389: Durazmarn's Beasts

Despite the short duration, Adam smiled as he wrenched the grimoire out of Shepard's firming hand. Until the end, his mentor clutched it, refusing to let go.

"You can't leave college during that week, either. Even better, don't leave your room at all."

Shepard's lips quivered as his voice cracked. Let him wander with his prised grimoire in the wild? Out of the question!

He only reluctantly agreed to lend it because of the shocking elemental display that shook his heart, making him consider a wild idea. What if he could become a second sky guardian after learning Vivian's tricks? Even if he couldn't, it would still help him win the inter-academy tournament, so everything should be fine as long as he returned the book in perfect condition.

Meanwhile, a triumphant smirk stretched on Adam's lips as he tucked the thick grimoire under his arm. Then, he heard the dean sigh with a tormented grimace before he changed the subject entirely.
