Aster stared for a moment at the sword revealed before him.
Nimue, the Lady of the Lake, known among users as the Lake Witch, wore a proud expression.
“There’s no need to be surprised. Frondier didn’t mention your name directly.”
Frondier hadn’t directly mentioned Aster’s name to Nimue and Merlin. He simply said they would know when they saw him.
He had intentionally concealed Aster’s name. He wanted their eyes to determine if Aster was worthy.
“And you’ve proven yourself.”
Nimue said.
“When everyone was trembling in fear, you showed strong will with your own strength. A hero is a being who inspires hope in humans. You have that qualification.”
Whether he was listening to Nimue or not, Aster silently looked at the sword.
