A very odd feeling—it was strange that both handbooks mentioned the same person, yet both conveniently omitted the person's name.
Sonia and Diya were also clueless about this, but it was just an insignificant detail.
The reason Ash even brought it up to Sonia was simply because it was such a coincidence that it merited a bit of gossip, but he wasn't really all that curious.
After all, nobody knew when the owners of these two handbooks were from, and the 'she,' 'that woman' mentioned might well be dead already. If fate would have it, maybe they'd even get to flog her corpse!
This was what made the Void Realm so fascinating, it was the destination of knowledge and the tomb of Mages.
Each Mage's Handbook here was etched with a life story from thousands of years ago, whereas those deeply affecting tales might no longer have any record in reality.
Reality was so cruel to everyone, but the Void Realm cherished every child.
