Within the forest, Julius picked up the large scythe, storing it in the ring, and then he picked up a black orb on the ground too.
He threw the black orb at Ivana, and she raised a brow toward him.
"Don't be confused. It's not like it'll benefit me," Julius said to her, and she nodded.
"Moving on. I noticed the slave seal was reactivated and is now stronger." Julius went straight to the point.
Ivana frowned as she looked at Julius, who had a nonchalant expression, and she couldn't exactly read him at this moment.
"Thank you for releasing it before. But there's nothing you can do now," she said with a slight bow.
"If the duke allowed you to stay in the academy, it means that he wants you to target some people for him. And if I'm to guess, I'm a target as well."
Ivana couldn't say anything, and she wasn't even shocked that he knew so much.
"Yes, you are one of the targets," she confirmed.
