Every head in the room turned toward Cassius.
Ragnora blinked in disbelief. "You'll...do it? Sir Cassius, do you mean..."
Cassius nodded casually.
"I mean I'll do it. Everything Sisi just listed out—all the theoretical math, the dynamic pathways, the resonance alignment—I'll solve it."
"Sir Cassius, please, there's really no need to accept this!" Brenda pleaded anxiously. "I know she challenged your ego, but don't fall for her trap!"
"Please, Sir Cassius!" Another soldier added. "Let her to give you a normal test instead! One that can actually be done!"
"We might not have the brains for all this magical stuff, but even we can tell this is an uphill battle!"
The fairies were shaking their heads too, clearly trying to warn him off.
But Cassius simply smiled, taking a calm step toward Sisi.
"Nope. Sisi went out of her way to put this incredibly elaborate puzzle together for me. It would be rude to waste her hard work. I'll solve it."
