Something old, coiled, and fire-breathing. And apparently, Jammy Dracotar had noticed. He sat at the head of the obsidian-glassed room like he owned time. Slate-black hair, jaw cut by some divine blade, eyes the color of molten amber flickering with shadows that didn’t belong in a man’s gaze. Lustre had been cataloging ancient draconic texts in his private archive for two weeks— until tonight. Tonight, he hadn’t brought her here for scrolls. The bidding war for a relic ended. Champagne flowed. But Jammy’s gaze stayed pinned on her.

"You… you’re lying! I get it. You don’t want to give him back, so you purposely registered him with a younger age!" Everyone burst into mocking laughter. They all thought Sophie had gone mad. Just then, Professor Helen Ward from Sterling University stepped forward. "You’re the one lying. If what you’re saying were true, his admission to the Young Innovators Program would be revoked immediately. I will report this to the Department of Education. And I will also request a police investigation, because Miles Harper was fifteen when he applied."

It is a secret that holds both danger and uncertainty, demanding her immediate attention.

Inside is a deep abyss of sadness: "Yuki has gone. From now on, she didn’t know the hot or cold world but those who stay have never been relieved of their sadness." Hana didn’t move the flat even though she was always haunted that Yuki was behind her. Hana collapsed, drowning her sorrows in drunkenness. In the first few days, the landlords were sympathetic and accepted, but then they frankly refused. They forced Hana to find a new place to move to. The reason is to renovate the room. Actually, they don't want the old people staying behind to spread bad news.

“This calls for a celebration.” “I can wipe your entire digital footprint,” Allen, my genius hacker added immediately. “Randy won’t be able to track you, not even if he tries.” “Welcome home!” Larry, my designer announced dramatically, sweeping his arm toward the room like I was royalty returning from exile. A small, wet laugh escaped me. “The tech world had been in chaos for the past three years,” Larry continued. “Everyone’s trying to find the Cipher Empress.” He grinned. “Everyone, including Provost's group.

A philosopher studies the attitude to necromancers in literature and art, a mentalist specializes in all sorts of troubles, and a spell-weaver’s the most in-demand profession. He can remove corruption spells both laid on purpose and those caused by chance at places where people have perished. And a historian studies the theory and the chronology of the events and knows the roots of the Ashgenrian language.
