Studying the Rune

The next few days passed uneventfully. Arthur spent his time studying the Restrain rune and reading any articles he can find. His progress picked up the pace once he began studying the science behind the rune. However, what he could find online was insufficient to guide him through the secrets of the world. 

That's why once his rune got to 80%, his progress began slowing. That's when Arthur began examining the artifact's effects through using it. However, he needed some people to use it on. 

"You want to Restrain me?" Zas looked at him with wide eyes when Arthur asked him. "I'm not into that play, sorry." And he ran away like that. 

Arthur cursed for the misunderstanding but he still needed someone to help him. When he asked Ivy, who was working on her cooking skills for some reason, she brought up a valid point. 

"If the rune can't work on people with strength above 200, then it's useless to try it on me and the others."
