Miralda’s eyes flew wide open in awe and wonder. She spun her head around, glancing in every direction.

Before her stretched a room roughly twenty by twenty meters—on the surface, not too different from the chambers on each floor of the temple’s library.

But the walls told a different story.

Lining all four sides were massive shelves that stretched from floor to ceiling, perfectly symmetrical and interconnected. Each one was divided into two distinct sections.

The upper shelves, open and fully visible, were packed with thick tomes whose covers looked ancient, yet meticulously preserved. Some were even bound in woven grass—proof of their immense age. Just a glance at the covers was enough for Miralda to know: none of these books resembled anything she had ever seen in any other library.

While the top was exposed, the lower half of the shelving was made up of closed cabinets—hundreds of them. Each cabinet was topped with a drawer, also sealed shut.

Unlike the books above, whose contents

  • Chapter 446 - The Council’s Verdict

    “The other one who has mastered the same spell… is her.”Kaltona’s gaze locked on Bersena.“Master Meksi.”“Furthermore,” Kaltona continued, her tone deceptively calm, “it’s possible that some among us—or perhaps even junior masters—may have recently discovered a way to grasp the transformation spell. But I can assure you, at best, they would only be able to alter physical appearance. Mimicking another’s voice, however, is an entirely different level of mastery.”In other words, even if someone else had learned the spell besides Varom and Bersena, they would never have mastered the technique of voice imitation.“I believe my explanation is enough to prove that Master Meksi’s objection regarding the recording’s credibility has been invalidated. No one could have faked that voice except the Grandmaster—an unthinkable notion for all of us—or Master Meksi herself, which is equally improbable. Therefore, the voice we heard must indeed be Shambhu’s, spoken in fear.”Kaltona’s lips curled in

  • Chapter 445 - The Secret Revealed

    “Master Shrestha, we can’t simply accuse Miralda and Keshab of plotting to harm Shambhu based solely on that recording. We need more solid evidence.”Bersena’s voice was firm, though it was clear she was trying to keep her tone as respectful as possible. Inside the grand hall of the Temple of the Divine Meditation sat four senior masters and their four deputies, Bersena among them. Out of respect for her position, she had to choose her words carefully.Earlier, Prayag Shrestha, head of the security department, had listened to the recording that Flakor presented. To him, it was no trivial matter. Convinced that the situation was grave, he immediately summoned Bersena and the other senior masters to discuss it.“If I may speak honestly,” Miralda interjected, “what I once heard from Shambhu was quite the opposite. He’s the one who planned to harm Keshab and chose the forest as the perfect place to carry out his scheme.”Her words instantly drew a sharp, mocking grin from Flakor, who kept

  • Chapter 444 - Recorded Evidence

    A clear yet commanding voice sliced through the tense air as the figure standing beside Flakor caught his wrist before it could land a blow on Keshab’s cheek.“Have you truly never regretted your actions?”Bersena’s eyes locked onto Flakor with a sharp, fury-laced glare. As the deputy head of the education department, she still remembered the complaints she’d heard from students about Flakor’s brutality.This man had no qualms about slapping a student if he felt they weren’t making enough progress in training. Worse, he’d once broken a high school girl’s ribs with a single kick.At first, no one knew. Flakor was careful to do these things out of the senior masters’ sight. But one student, unable to endure it any longer, had finally gone to Bersena—his eye bruised and swollen—telling her that Flakor had punched him.The report had made Bersena’s blood boil. She had immediately taken the boy to Varom and told him everything.Not long after, Flakor was stripped of his position as one of

  • Chapter 443 - Someone Must Be Punished for Abandoning a Friend

    While deep in the forest, Shambhu and his two companions were forced to confront a strange creature made entirely of smoke, Keshab and Miralda had just arrived back at the temple’s communal kitchen to pour their final bucket of water.This was their fifth trip—marking the end of their punishment.“Miss Miralda, this feels like a dream.” Keshab grinned ear to ear as he emptied the massive wooden bucket into the reservoir. “We went to the well and back in only fifteen minutes!”Indeed, unlike their first trip to the well, each journey after that had been surprisingly quick—almost unnaturally so. It was as if the forest had suddenly drawn itself closer, the path smooth and effortless.“But I’m sure this is because you used some kind of magic during our journey, right?” Keshab looked at her with an expression full of admiration, like a student staring at their favorite teacher. “I’m so grateful I had the chance to witness your abilities firsthand.”Keshab didn’t know exactly what kind of

  • Chapter 442 - Escape

    “Where the hell are they? Why haven’t they come back yet?!”Shambhu let out an irritated huff. Twenty minutes had passed, and still no sign of Tirtha or Ujwal returning with the girl.“Completely useless! Looks like I’ll have to go after them myself.”It wasn’t that he cared about Tirtha, Ujwal, or even Keshab. Whether they got lost or not wasn’t his concern. If the three of them got eaten by a tiger, that would be their problem. The only one he cared about was Miralda.But just as he took a step toward the back of the path, his eyes caught something—thick, swirling smoke drifting down from the top of a tree.“Huh? What is that?”It wasn’t more than thirty feet ahead. The moment the smoke’s tendrils brushed the ground—ROAR!!!A deep, guttural bellow ripped through the air as a figure emerged from the smoky mass, lumbering toward him with heavy, deliberate steps.It had long, grotesque legs—still made of smoke, not flesh—but shaped like some monstrous beast.“W-What… what the hell is

  • Chapter 441 - Lost

    Ujwal spun around, only to find no sign of Keshab or Miralda.“Brother, they’re gone!” he shouted. “They’re not behind us!”“What are you talking about? Don’t start spouting nonsense in a situation like this—it’s really not funny!”Shambhu’s expression tightened in irritation, forced to halt because of Ujwal’s outburst. Still, he turned his head to check for himself.“That’s impossible…”The rest of his words died in his throat. His eyes confirmed what Ujwal had said—tens of meters behind them, no… almost a hundred meters back, there was no trace of the portly man or the girl he loved so deeply.A surge of dread twisted in his chest.“Damn it! Where are they? Did something happen that made them fall behind?”He refused to believe that Keshab and Miralda had deliberately taken a different path. Neither of them had ever been in this forest before—there was no way they would intentionally split off.Still, anxiety gnawed at him. Not seeing Miralda among them made his pulse quicken.“Ujwa
