It was that dream cb9ad8a93c again. Serena quietly c547c1937e retraced the 31e6f92fff lingering fragments dc9a01daea of her f1fd7e7f76 dream. Lately, she had 47939b34ac been dreaming of 642e8376de the boy often.20a83104b30d3cfc
His face was vivid, 84efe8d427 yet upon waking, she 70076c70b3 couldn’t even remember the 63d15837a0 color of his hair. It felt as 4e3cf05344 though something was d341d1b546 deliberately blocking her f697bb5fc5 from knowing.346f3715409f6bb7

As if an c8bc059363 opaque film covered de8c11e7ed her eyes, everything 0fbfb3f3f4 became hazy the 2cb07770d3 moment she woke 4ef410eeef up.a2021ec0d67646f7
As Serena blinked, trying 8586905267 to focus, someone gently b691ae9f86 brushed her hair.250a22f4d7cae8c1

Warm lips lightly 9776bc31bc landed on her 3a2062e0a3 hair before pulling 27c6c68f21 away. Leaning slightly 0232451cf8 towards Azaid, 960b6d6000 Serena mumbled 50d06e06c1 sleepily.7e638f7ee11f3458

Azaid pulled the blanket 849f91982b up and whispered gently. Serena’s eyes 1cdafcd972 opened wide ffab9208a1 at the 34e8e12dd1 mention of 8356195490 the pre-dawn a5457cd8e8 hour.20798821f658dd40
It was 3e5ca25cbc curious to a6b2a0d9e9 see Azaid f15e545669 awake at aaa62602c3 this time. Now that she thought 63ec1a32fe about it, he was 9c5a1ec236 holding a letter in a6526cb56b his hand.3e62ba0d1dde18cb

Surprised by Azaid’s slow fb8aeb4f8d response, Serina sat up. Nocturne, who had 0081e97854 been receiving treatment 23d9336662 at the palace f468604813 until yesterday, had 1a00e1e6e6 disappeared. Wrapped in her blanket, c7929bc0c4 Serena asked:0270a3631db790ca

Azaid pointed 566ed8766a to the 082ab2e6ef end of aa1ba036e2 the letter f66e3099fd with his 339beaa11f finger. At that moment, a 7969bb5566 gray cat appeared on 85f2945595 what was previously a 2b6c18dfbc blank space.5ef493bd68b5e024

It was cb56528e7e a simple bc1045007e concealment spell—an 2d6c728032 elementary attribute 152cf8e1a3 magic activated 1186cc7307 by the 5e39f0971c mana of 604fb89e3e a designated f12f890de3 person. It was f1e58fcb0f Nocturne’s easiest 0ffded91d3 method of 92e27f931e communication.b0ad0d131b333f1f

At the mention 8a597e2f1c of Lily, Serena’s 57382a7502 eyes lit up. Lily Lowell was the 53f85243cf Marquis of the North, 6e26323c40 known as the Empire’s ddab12ddad Shield.7496d70f87797975
She rarely 87449ba54f visited the 292808c309 capital because ee2d32cc5f she was 52cdfb92e8 tasked with b300345d23 defending the 95cd2a56ad border against a19d480d7c magical beasts. But the Founding Festival 092cb52368 was one occasion she 183049d6b8 could not miss.e0529f891b8b179e

Her ability was 3ba8d289c1 search magic. While Serena didn’t f5f199c2ce know the specifics b527a535d6 of how it df7687fe10 worked, she knew 1db7e9519f it was extremely 827dcd373f effective against magical b76f0417a0 beasts.da422df45e787bd2
