"This is…" the student gasped, finding the log that Nathan asked earlier. There were a lot of words inscribed in it.

"I'm sorry, Rudeus. I can't afford to do everything as you said. Even though I can burn the side of the island opposite to yours, I don't want to burn the only water source on this island.

You've truly forced me to become the villain of the class, Rudeus. I'm disappointed."
