Chapter 83: Conversations With Andrian
Jules pov
I was sitting cross legged in one the couches here while Andrian was looking through a bunch of books on his desk.
"I acquired this book at a very costly price, I believe the spell for unsealing locked magic is in there." He explained and I felt relieved of course through my veins. As I was coming to see Andrian, this was the last thing I expected to hear from him.
To think that I had almost given up on my magic getting unsealed. So many emotions were currently dancing through my insides and I was finding it hard to sit still. The thought of being able to use magic once again was so exciting that it was still hard to come to terms with.
"This is the reason why I was unable to come to you last night when you needed help. After I asked you to keep your location turned on and all." He revealed as he finally pulled up a book with an ashy, dark cover and almost chipped edges.
I sat up straighter as he approached me. "After getting a hold of this book, apparently a bunch of other people wanted it as well. They tailed me and tried to steal it from me, it’s all thanks to the friend working with me, she’s a shapeshifter, so she easily escaped with the book and I had to fight off those thieves on my own along with my guards. Sadly, the rest of them escaped before I could question them." He explained as he handed the book over to me.
The book felt cold in my palm, and I could tell it was an ancient book by how it looked and smelt.
"Oh wow, I really hope you’re okay." I offered as I attempted to open the book. Andrian chuckled as he took the couch opposite me.
"I think I should be asking you that, how were you able to get out of the dangerous situation last night?" He asked and I bit on my bottom lip as I glanced at him.
