Leonora followed behind him into the forge.
The walls were dark, rough, lined with the bare skeleton of equipment scattered across the wide space.
"So… how are you going to start?"
Nameless Death didn't turn around. He walked to the center of the forge, then came to a stop. "First, I'll acquire the knowledge of every Path I can currently use."
Leonora tilted her head, confused.
"What do you mean by that? Don't you already know how Paths work?"
"I know how the Path of the Awakener works," he said. "I know how the Path of the Elementals functions. But I still don't understand the Path of Achievements."
She frowned. "Huh?"
"I'm going to devour it," he said plainly, as if it were obvious. "That's the only way I can learn how it works."
Leonora blinked once. Then again.
She couldn't believe her ears.
It had barely been a few minutes since he'd said something that already sounded ridiculous, and now he was topping it with something even more absurd.
