Eyes on the Prize

[A few minutes before arriving at the Nystrom's mansion…]

"I'M GOING to teach the Black Serpent how to use his water attribute."

To say that Luna was surprised by the saint's declaration would be an understatement. The carriage that they were using was almost at the Nystrom's estate now. And yet, Saint Forrester still had something shocking to say. "Your Holiness, I don't even know that the duke has water attribute."

"Doesn't it only make sense for an ice user to manipulate water as well?" Saint Forrester asked in a bored tone. "Why are you so surprised?"

"Well, I've never seen the duke control water before," she countered. "He just freezes everything and anyone to death."

"And that's reckless," he said. "Solely relying on sheer power instead of technique is stupid. He would have died a long time ago if he was an ordinary person. But since the duke is a god himself, he was able to survive that long by simply using ice."
