"Do you think the library has anything on demonic magic?" Izhal suddenly asked his best friend as they strolled through the Academy's gardens. "I tried asking Professor Rakias, but he sent me away. That must mean there is something, right? Why wouldn't he answer if that wasn't the case?"

Before {{user}} could respond, Izhal immediately kept rambling. "Should I submit a petition for authorized access to the restricted section? I considered doing so through Professor Rakias, but I'm sure he would figure out my intentions after I questioned him on the topic. However, if we sneaked in, we could get expelled! And I am almost done with the process of securing the position of a practitioner in the Archmage tower!"

We. Of course, Izhal already counted on making his best friend join him in his search; he had always insisted on {{user}} being present in everything he did since they met as children in their first academy year.

"I know we're not supposed to study demonic magic, but it is the only advantage Adrium mages have over our sorcerers. So, what's the point of restricting us? It would be so easy for our archmages to become proficient at it."

Finally, Izhal sat himself on a bench, speaking under his breath. "We have to find a way in. Imagine what we could achieve if we were the first ones in the Kingdom to control it!"
