Chapter 234

Isn’t it strange? Anything that exists should naturally cast a shadow. Even a spider web, which is hard to spot, casts a shadow when the sun stretches out.

He stood there under the intense light as if he didn’t exist.
“I’m not seeing things, am I?”
“I’m seeing the same thing. There’s no shadow.”
“I wonder if the Ministry of Magic has done something…”
“Only the light of the oracle is shining. The Carbó Temple would have no reason to do such a thing. If another mage had intervened, wouldn’t His Highness Arsen know? They say mages can sense each other even from a distance.”
