It took Ormon nearly thirty seconds to react to what just happened.
He could not make sense of what he just saw, and he was confused.
He looked at Simon and asked.
"What just happened?"
Simon opened his fist and let go of the ashes in his hand.
"You wanted the truth. This is the truth."
He paused and looked at Ormon.
"This is why I can't use swords. They all turn to ashes the moment I hold them."
Simon's words were filled with sadness, and it was not fake in the slightest.
The pain of a swordsman not being able to hold a sword was truly indescribable.
Ormon however did not care about Simon's pain, he was more curious about his words.
"All the swords you hold turn to ashes?"
Simon shook his head and corrected him.
"Not only swords. All the weapons I hold turn to ashes."
Ormon's expression became strange because this was the first time he was hearing about an artifact that prevented one from wielding weapons.
