Strange Feeling

From the report that Adam had read about Liriel, he surmised that the elf and Kael often worked together. They were a team, their skills complementing one another.

Liriel acted as the face of the operation, infiltrating the target location, and gaining the trust of key players in the mission. She had high skills in manipulation and used subtle magic to uncover information, sowing discord among her targets.

She was an expert at infiltration, no doubt. However, her true expertise lay in the domain of deceit—more precisely her usage of illusion magic.

A flash of smugness gleamed in the elf's eyes as she replied, "An expert at illusion magic? That I am. Even some of the gnomes I know were full of praises."

"Oh, really?" Adam smirked. To which, Kael nodded silently.

The pride in Liriel's eyes gradually vanished. She could faintly feel a trace of ridicule in the raven-haired human's tone.
