— Alright… Shall we begin? Hahaha… — I said, already preparing to place the Kovâr in the furnace and test that new creation.
During that brief moment in which we admired the newly built furnace, however, a sudden presence caught us by surprise.
— Hmm… What are you doing? — asked Lyaris, appearing right beside us, as if she had materialized out of thin air.
— L-LYARIS?! — I exclaimed, startled, jumping to the side with my heart nearly leaping out of my chest.
She approached the furnace, leaning in with curiosity, and ran her hand over the structure like someone analyzing a work of art.
— So this is what you've been up to all this time, huh? — she commented, amazed, with her eyes scanning every detail.
At that moment, my stomach turned to ice. If she had truly been watching us during the construction… then she probably saw me using the vothrial — which, without a doubt, would be a big problem.
