Jessy looked at him for a moment, put the brush down on the table, and gently wiped her hands, knowing that he wanted to tell her something.

"I need to get stronger," he said. "That's why I'll be studying with Professor Hardrial for two weeks. I already spoke to him a few days ago."

"Are you leaving immediately?" she asked.
"Yes. My magic is very weak, and my current abilities, although above average for Academy students, are far from the power of the true giants I may face. So I will be training and improving my magic."
