Chapter 161: Professors

"Miss Illea, would you please give us a little background about the professors here? It would help if we know a little more about them." Eero asked.

"Sure," Illea replied. "Let us start with this gentleman right here. He is Lex. Back in his time when he was a thief at Helbintorgh, he was known as the 'Hands of Shadow' because of his exceptional skills in stealing stuff. It came to the point where even the government was hiring him to steal valuable things from the nobility to prevent a coup de tat. He is an archmage proficient in shadow Runes. There was a common adage in Helbingtorgh that goes, 'Luck is a friend of everyone until the hands of shadow take it away.' It basically means that being stolen by Lex is his unluckiness. They gave up on pursuing the thief since he seemed uncatchable. Instead, the government used him to their advantage. They tried to make the most out of his capabilities." Illea said.
