I've been all over this room, but I haven't found any way to escape. Jovian and I couldn't even draw any weapons. Even our abilities didn't work at all."Argh...!" I turned my head when I heard Jovian shout. He looked frustrated because he couldn't use his powers. Even now, he keeps kicking the wall in front of him out of sheer desperation.I just chuckled and shook my head slightly. I felt the same as Jovian. I turned around and immediately dropped my body until my buttocks touched the floor. I leaned back and looked up at the ceiling.This room was dark, and there was only one light near the door. A torch whose light couldn't reach the whole room. I was sure it was bright outside, but inside it was like midnight.I, who was daydreaming, immediately turned my head when I heard the sound of the door opening. A centaur entered and looked at us in turn. Jovian, annoyed from earlier, immediately ran to attack the centaur. But his body immediately bounced back, as he seemed to hit somethi

Lord Centaur finally accepted my offer. I was willing to stay here until my magic was perfect, on the condition that Jovian would not be punished."Aren't you coming with me?" I escorted Jovian to the border region with one of the centaur guards. He was surprised that I did not cross paths with him.The border region is the place that serves as a bridge between Smoky Hollow and the Forbidden Forest. Although the Forbidden Forest was within Smoky Hollow, its power was under the control of the centaurs."No, no, no. I have something to finish here." I could not possibly tell Jovian the reason I was with the centaurs. But there was no way I could make Jovian worry.Jovian frowned and looked at me suspiciously. "What are you doing here?" He seemed unhappy with my answer, but I could not possibly explain everything."It's none of your business! Hurry home before Lord Centaur changes his mind."Jovian clucked and then turned. He took a few steps and turned around. "When are you coming home?

Lord Centaur continued to give me instructions. I followed his orders one by one. Little by little, I was able to make the windmill obey me. I can even make it follow my hand movements.From being small at first, it became bigger and bigger and probably exceeded my ability to make my body bounce back."Don't be greedy!" said Lord Centaur as he held a staff out to me. I took it and slowly tried to stand up. "Any greed will only bring disaster."I was silent as I listened to his words. What did he know about greed? I went back to my practice. At first, I succeeded, but when the wind became strong, I failed again and fell down.I got up again and repeated it so many times that I was exhausted. I took a break and corrected my irregular breathing. The more I failed, the more chaotic my feelings became, and the more I could not control my strength. Even at the last moment, I failed. There was no wind energy I could control."I told you not to be greedy!" Lord Centaur came over and spoke aga

After the conversation with the little centaur, I kept thinking about his words. "The Chosen One?" I laughed at the mention. How could someone like me be chosen?I shook my head, dismissing all the thoughts that had entered my head. I may have gained magical abilities, but that does not mean that I am the chosen one. I am not that good at being a bridge between two worlds.I returned to the room where I trained with Lord Centaur. I returned there to train, even though no one was with me. I wanted to master magic quickly so that I could leave this place.I repeated everything that had been taught to me and also memorised some of the spells that had been taught."You are progressing quite quickly. It looks like we can start the next lesson." I turned my head as I heard a voice behind me. The centaur lord entered with another centaur.The centaur lord snapped his fingers, and flames immediately appeared from his fingertips. "The next lesson is fire control." He blew out the fire on his f

I was stunned when Winslow suddenly wrapped his arms around my legs and knelt there. He was such an arrogant person, how could he be like this now?"What are you doing?" I tried to spread my legs. But Winslow held on too tightly."I won't let you go until you forgive Sofia." I frowned at my ex-in-law's words."Yes. That's right, Leon. You must forgive Sofia and us. We know we were mean to you, but we had a close relationship before." Magdalena came over and kneeled beside Winslow. Soon, Sofia did the same."Leon, I am guilty of having an affair with Ian. But you must know that my love is only for you. I was with Ian because I was carried away by the luxuries he often gave me. Please, Leon, forgive me."I looked at them in turn. Their faces looked miserable. But that was not enough to make me feel sorry. Suddenly, a crazy idea popped into my head."Do you really want me to forgive you?" I asked, lifting the corner of my lips.Hearing my words, the three of them raised their faces toget
