"Are you sure Nessia is going to be fine?" Charles asked Alex.
"You should be worrying about Renard instead of your girlfriend," Alex replied. "Do you know why I asked Nessia to be Renard's first sparring partner?"
"Why?"
"Because she will completely obliterate Renard and show him no mercy."
Alex laughed internally because he already knew the outcome of this battle.
If Renard had asked Nessia to fight him on the spot yesterday, Nessia might have not won against him.
But today?
Nessia could wipe the floor with Renard even if she were wearing a blindfold.
She was the future Phoenix Tactician, but her growth would not stagnate. Eventually, she would be known as the Rune Saint.
Alex did Renard dirty by giving Nessia time to prepare for their duel.
A master of Rune Magic became an especially scary opponent once given the opportunity to prepare beforehand.
When Alex and Charles arrived at the clock tower, they saw Renard seated with his arms crossed.
