Chapter 70

The Devil’s Temptation
While geography and theology could be memorized, ancient language was quite difficult. It was difficult to memorize even a single word because the meaning changed depending on the grammar.
Even when Sheila saw a list of decorative letters, her brain won’t accept them as words. She was amazed to learn that children of aristocrats were taught this kind of thing from an early age.
“I’m getting better at speaking, but spelling is difficult…. this stuff is just like a spell….”
Jornwerner, who had been working on his own research on the side, responded to Sheila’s resentful mutterings.
“Speaking of spells, are you interested in magic?”
“What? Um…. Ahaha, did I say that?”
Even if Sheila misled him properly, she couldn’t remove his gaze off of her.
Sheila had previously complained that she wanted to be able to read magic-related books in the library. Now, she deeply regretted the choice she made in consulting him at that time. She felt uncomfortable as if she was being held in a vulnerable position.
Jornwerner closed the notebook he used to scribble in.
