The Male Lead isn't Following the Script!

"Wow, what fine craftsmanship. This technique is impressive, say, how did you accomplish this?"

Aaron whispered to Adeline, "Quick, now is the time!"

Both of them slipped away once they were sure that their Master was distracted. Adeline headed towards the back alley as described in the book. Aaron knew full well that his master was obsessed with swords.

He used the same technique he would use to get out of training. He would let his master go on and on about swords and waste time.

When Aaron told her that his Master had this habit, it immediately clicked, there was a weaponsmith who crafted swords using techniques from his hometown. Dimitri recognised that they had the same roots based on the sword's build.

It was offhandedly mentioned in the novel that Dimitri hired that weaponsmith and created swords that could be imbued with magic using magic crystals, which meant that ordinary people without magic could use magic.

This happened when he was already part of the mage tower so she didn't know if Dimitri knew him yet but it was a good place to start. Adeline frowned for a second after making this plan. It seemed a bit too convenient.

"It's not convenience, you're just that smart!"

"Ah!"
