Anton saw his father looking at him in surprise.
“Why did you keep them?” Anders asked, talking about the magic items.

“I haven’t drunk and bathed in mana water for a while. I’m thankful, though, that the effect of the water didn’t seem to fade over time. My hair remained luxurious and my skin remained fair and flawless,” Anna said softly while looking at her arms.

Anton rolled his eyes at his butler.
“Do you expect to behave like some stuck-up noble brat while walking in the middle of the street of Ormunda?”
Mr. Jenkins, of course, denied it, but Anton could see that the butler really would prefer for him to behave that wa...
