Chapter 38: Concealment Spell
Leonard was a bit frustrated and thought Mirelle was playing a prank on him.
There was no way she could miss the cut when he pointed where it was precisely.
’She must have been mad that I made her appear to be a whore. It’s just an act. Did she have to be so petty when it’s about a serious issue?’ He couldn’t comprehend her behavior.

When Mirelle saw the kind of looks that Leoanrd was giving her, she knew exactly what he was implying.
"I really don’t see or smell anything amiss." She responded honestly.

"A concealment spell?" Leonard pursed his lips. "You mean the kind that concealed something from the naked eye or some detection?"
"Yes, that is correct!" Nodding, Mirelle began chanting a spell that was designed to expose any concealment. It was a high-level spell of the fifth circle.

However, it lasted for only a brief moment when the mana returned to its normal state.
"This is..." Stunned by the situation, Mirelle’s expression darkened.
