Noticing where my eyes had rested, Eirwen Penrose glowered at me with visible disdain. "Have you seen enough?"
"Ah, not quite. Maybe you can give me a better look?" I blurted out."William Floyd!"Eirwen's voice was cold enough to ice over a pond. She stood up, clearly peeved by what I had just said. "How can you do something so shameful!""Uh… what did I do, exactly?"I was genuinely confused.When I saw Eirwen's violently heaving chest, though, I eventuaLatest Chapter

"Master, why… why do you know the Netherfrost School's secret spell?"Nestor looked at me with candid amazement."Wanna learn them?" I replied with a nonchalant shrug. "I can teach it to you if you want.""No! I will not allow you to teach him anything!" Trenton wailed from his position on the floor. "The secrets of the Netherfrost School cannot be divulged to outsiders!""I learned these spells myself fair and square," I chuckled. "Who's going to stop me from teaching them, huh?"Having been helped by his student to his feet, Trenton glared at me indignantly. "Don't you think you're going too far? If you steal Nether Frost without permission, my peers will surely hunt you down. Teaching the spell to others would only bring harm to them in the long run!""I haven't stolen anything. In fact, I learned it from you – and you saw me doing it." I shook my head slowly. "If this Netherfrost School of yours stays out of my way, that's all well and

"Careful, teacher!""Mr. Floyd!"I could hear the panicked cries of Cory and Nestor by my ear. However, they had nothing they needed to worry about.The golden mist and black droplet in my mind simultaneously stirred to life.The mist roiled down from my head all through my body, then expelled itself through my pores. I was covered in an aureate shell that seemed able to protect me from anything.Certainly, dispelling the cold blast was nothing at all for its abilities despite its proximity.The black droplet, on the contrary, tore out from my mouth like a hungry beast. It swallowed the incoming spell whole, draining the cold into my body and converting it into part of itself.Their jobs done, the mist and the droplet both returned to the safety of my mind. The temperature in the living room had also gone back to normal."You… you ate my Sealing Cold whole?"Trenton stared at me in disbelief.The other guests were astonished,

"The Netherine Sorcerer, huh? What a coincidence. I just taught his son a lesson, and now I've found his student. I'd like to have a good and proper chat with him after all this."I narrowed my eyes thoughtfully after hearing Dennis' story.Cory, on the other hand, focused on the mentioned woman far more. "Do you know what that woman's name is?""I'm afraid not." Dennis shook his head."You know what she looks like, at least? You've seen her in person yourself?"Cory pressed further."I have, yes," affirmed Dennis. "She was in her early thirties, blonde, lovely features, teardrop face. Had a defined nose… rosy mouth… amazing curves? I don't know – I thought she was really hot. A sort of mature beauty, you know?""None of those are defining characteristics! You haven't told me anything useful.""Defining characteristics…" Dennis became pensive. "Aha!" he yelped. "She had a mole at the corner of her mouth. A beauty mar

A dress went missing?Nestor and I traded a knowing look at this piece of unexpected news.If the dress had disappeared after the nanny's grocery trip… There is obviously a problem with that nanny!"How long has it been since she left?" Cory asked with furrowed brows.Mrs. Alden thought about it for a moment. "About half an hour or so.""That long? I don't think we're going to catch up to her, then. We can only wait for her to come home."A hint of disappointment flickered across Cory's face. He invited Nestor and me to rest inside for a drink while we waited.After we sat down, he formally introduced the middle-aged woman to us: as I had expected, she was Mrs. Ruth Alden.Mrs. Alden became intensely distressed upon hearing the possibility that the lost dress could be used to harm her daughter again. She seemed to feel like it was her own fault. Though Cory did not join in her fretting, his own troubled visage gave everything away.

Smack!The blow sent the young man flying before he could even react.He collided with several others in his backward trajectory, sending them crashing to the concrete.There was instantly a rash of anguished screams.The one I had hit directly had the worst of it. He spat out a mouthful of red blood and white debris."My… my teef…"Upon seeing and noticing the aftermath of the injury, tears gushed out of his eyes. The smugness at having delivered the insult only moments prior was replaced with deep regret.Even so, this was the result of me consciously holding back my strength.If he were just a few years older, he would be lying flat on the floor right now – with so much more severe injuries."Gary, he… he's so strong. What are we supposed to do?" Another machete-wielding youth walked up to their leader with a worried look."What are ya supposed ta do? He hit one of the boys! The hell do you think, huh? F

Thwack!The crisp sound of palm against cheek echoed through the dining hall.I doubted Gary ever thought Cecilia would hit him herself. He stayed completely still in his slightly hunched pose, petrified by the shock of something so unexpected.To be fair, I was just as astonished as he that the normally gentle Cecilia would land such a swift strike.Judging from the looks on their faces, Nestor and Cory shared my feelings regarding the incident.Behind us, Gary's goons looked even more surprised. Their faces were contorted in equal parts shock and horror. Most of all, though, their eyes radiated intense disbelief."How dare you, Cecilia Byron! You actually hit Master Yates! I'm going to tear you to shreds!"Sarah pounced at her with outstretched claws.Before she could get anywhere close, the recovered Gary held up a hand. "I take care of my own business."His words reluctantly stopped her in her tracks. "I'll deal with you later, you st
