"Now that the existence of the Demons have been confirmed, it is not a stretch to assume, currently, High Class Demons are the only creatures who can use True Magic. By that logic, there is a high possibility that the Four Heroes were—no. Just no."

"The thing is, it's not a garbage," Iliana said solemnly. "It makes too much sense to be discarded as such. You are just calling death upon yourself."

At Iliana's harsh criticism, Chester sighed helplessly. He was glad that she agreed with what he wrote, but he felt slightly disheartened by the scolding.
