The Scientist of Syntara
It was a lie. And he knew Leith must have realized it. But the man did not respond to the lie, did not judge, did not ask any further questions. He just remained silent... and slowly bit his own index finger until a drop of blood appeared.
Then, with a movement that was almost inaudible, he reached out his hand toward Liyn.
"Drink... Liyn.”
Liyn's heart felt like it was being pulled out of her chest. Her breath caught. She stared at Leith's finger in confusion, fear, and… trembling. But something inside her stirred. Slowly, she grasped Leith's hand, her hands so small in that gentle embrace, then hesitantly touched that finger to her lips.
She sucked on the tip of the finger, tasting the salty, warm blood.
As warm as someone who cares.
Yurei Yurelin dreamed of becoming a scientist and exploring the skies above, not the magical battlefield. She hid her Veyra level as a child, managed to get into a technology school, and was almost achieving her dream… until everything fell apart.
Betrayed by the retest results, Yurei was forced to enter Syntara Academy, an elite academy for Veyra users. There, everyone had extraordinary talent—except her.
But one thing worse than being the ordinary girl among geniuses…
is the fact that her new teacher is a legendary former warrior, a man whose face can make anyone submit—including Yurei's heart.
As old secrets begin to surface and the hidden power within her slowly awakens, Yurei realizes: she was never meant to be a Scientist… but something greater.
