Upon hearing this shocking news, all the nobles were collectively stunned. The spacious conference hall immediately erupted into a noisy clamor, resembling a chaotic marketplace.
"How is that possible?! It's utterly impossible!!"
"Mastering even one True Magic requires generations of lifelong study—how could someone possibly command three?!"
"Even Zelretch, who has lived for millennia, only possesses the Second Magic!!!"
Even Lorelei's face revealed an expression of utter shock.
Born into the Barthomeloi family—which had commanded the Clock Tower for 2000 years—and hailed as the lineage closest to True Magic, she knew better than anyone the difficulty of achieving it.
Now, someone claimed one person had mastered three True Magics—what kind of research talent, what perseverance, what opportunity could possibly create such a monster?!
"...Impossible. Monopolizing three True Magics—that's not something a 'Human' can achieve!" Forcibly suppressing her stray thoughts, Lorelei stated coldly, her face impassive.
"Believe it or don't!" Kayneth walked out of the hall, hands clasped behind his back, acting as if he were the True Magic user.
