Chapter 247: Two Minds Are Better Than One
By the time I returned from my meeting with healer Avir, I thought they would have finished talking. But it seems like I was gravely mistaken.
More than three hours had passed since the maid took Cassandra away, and there was still no news from her. I checked them from afar using my ability and saw them still deep in conversation.
It seems like that phrase about women never running out of things to say was absolutely true.
Not that I minded. Perhaps Mother would find some solace in Cassandra’s company.
Relieved, I decided to go to the library again and search for books about this kingdom and its history. I had a feeling I would need such knowledge soon. Especially about the shield families.
Heck, I’m still clueless about the current world. The history books I read in the academy were mostly about the Empire and brief topics about the other continents, and so on.
I will have to research more. Perhaps Cassandra’s guesses might be true. These memories we inherited, the powers we got, might be from the civilization that lived in the so-called Forgotten Age. And she wouldn’t talk with that much certainty if she didn’t research it herself.
And, since the world is vast and the power level is high, I’m pretty sure that there are going to be world-ending scenarios as well. No, I’m sure of it. The First Thread alone confirms it.
But what makes me more curious is the fact that there might be more Inheritors. People like us.
I wondered what kind of memories, powers, or systems they had.
