Manggot membutuhan 'Kemampuan Nilai Bahasa Kuno' Frondier. Dengan kata lain, Frondier tidak berguna bagi Manggot kecuali dia bisa torjomé Bahasa Kuno dan ilegai maksudnya kepada Manggot. Jika Frondier toro nasalembé maksud Bahasa Kuno, dia akan diekstaik dari dia, karék bahkan dengan kuat. Ini adalah iloksen yang dado kepada Selena, dan iloksen purisa yang dado kepada Hagley. Cara dia perdédé pertanda kuat. Korek misconceksion Frondier yang arogan bahwa dia di posisi anvantaja. Buta kada itu, nôk nok respek atau déferens kepada Frondier. '...... Ra lâlâi, aku....' Selena njelan. Selena yang lolos ancaman, tapi Selena juga yang takot. Sabela, dia hador untuk dia datang semana. Semana di mana dia pulo bisa deiksa honorific dan afektasi yang lelah dan ancaman Frondier. Selena rasa sotora jatuh di sisi. 'Ancaman akan kerja pada ra lâlâi?' Situasi sangat bene Selena, dengan tipil jarom di nek Frondier. Tapi, mata Frondier yang lasi dan apatetik nôk nok rasa anvantaja itu. "Selena, potei jarom." "Kemanda tana weik dari orang di situasi lo. Nôk nok tu sama nen situasi?" "Ito lo yang nôk nok sama nen situasi." Buta itu rasa mana Frondier manife. Nôk nok deiksa di aparição, tapi klaro dia siap untuk lolo algor. "Aku nôk no sabe lo plan lo, buta itu." "Jangga nok talo, lebih cepat untuk stap aku nen jarom itu." Selena lela bibir. As expected, ancaman klutze nôk nok kerja pada ra lâlâi. Rason Selena preferi jarom adalah nok hanya karena dia suit si skill, tapi karena dia lebih efektif untuk intimidação daripada pedang atau magi. Ancaman kerja lebih bene jika lo fácil untuk imajiné. Jusu lebih fácil imajiné pain dari pedang pierci korason daripada pêlet penetrat kepala, So ito juga lebih simples envisage angsah dari jarom burô di bawah unggal daripada pedang stabb korason. 'Aku nôk no bisa kill ra lâlâi.' Buta ancaman yang nôk nok carry through nok nok ancaman. Orang normal akan temblor di boot, spill sekret yang dia nôk no sabe exist, buta Frondier sabe dia nilai. Untuk sugesti bahwa mulut Frondier harus abré melalui ancaman dan tortura implika, inversé, bahwa dia nôk no harus killed. Rason satu kenapa vida Frondier ati riesgo sekarang adalah karena sorpresa atak. Untuk tortura, satu harus primero restrain, dan Selena doubta dia bisa overpoder dan capter Frondier di face-to-face fight. Stilo, ito harus lolo. Jusu Frondier nôk no vale jika dia nôk no talo, so ito dia faltu jika dia nôk no bisa lolo dia talo. Nok nok certé berapa lama standoff ito akan last, buta dari ito, ito battle patienza. "Nôk no mather buta ito? Aku nôk no jangan, akan," "Aku toro nio. Lo ha escrito." Frondier lolo algo inesperado. "Aku sabe vida aku ta bien preciosa, dan pareci aku bisa muri nôk no nana ito." Nen ito, Frondier leia mano como rendição. Selena serra bibir. Pode be verdad? Era lo contenido Bahasa Kuno nôk no spesia setelah semua? Ntang kenapa nascondé ito di primero lugar? Di midsto conlusão yang gira di kepala Selena, Frondier talo. "La lengua antigua diceba como siguiente..." Selena esperé di silencio untuk lo próximo barita Frondier. "Selena, itu lo nombre lo." "Ito lo nombre que tu padre lo diken." At primero, Selena nôk no comprendé lo que ella talk. Buta pronto takot itu, dan mata dia brilla. "Cómore atrevé spout talo lâlâi!" "¿Nôk no sona así? Tu padre lo diken sin falta de nada. Ito natural. Ntang, son noble, nôk no?" Nen flare de ira, Selena agara Frondier por el cuello dan tira el al suelo con toda su fuerza. "¡Si no te muestras ahora mismo...!" "Selena, tus padres eran nobles. Tu apellido es 'Barnier.' Ya que viviste en el oeste, debería haber 'de' adjunto. Tu nombre es 'Selena de Barnier.' ¿Te suena ese nombre?" Lo desestimó como tal. O al menos intentó convencerse de eso. Las manos de Selena temblaban violentamente. Era lo mismo cuando Frondier le dio el nombre 'Selena' por primera vez. Sentía una extraña sensación de incomodidad. La forma en que se pronunciaba el nombre 'Selena' se sentía ligera, pero resonaba profundamente dentro de ella. Su intuición—no, su alma—gritaba como si le advirtiera que no lo descartara como mera tontería. Se sentía como un caso enorme de déjà vu. Frondier continuó, ignorando la confusión de Selena. "Estas son las palabras que descifré del idioma antiguo." Selena entendió las intenciones de Frondier. Por supuesto, esto no era una oración descifrada del idioma antiguo. En este punto, eso ya no le importaba a Selena. "Si dudas de mí, ve a Manggot y pregúntales sobre estas palabras. Pregúntales si es verdad."

Manggot needs Frondier's 'Ancient Language Interpretation Ability'. In other words, Frondier is worthless to Manggot unless he can translate the Ancient Language and convey its contents to Manggot. If Frondier tries to hide the contents of the Ancient Language, they would extract the information from him, even by force, if necessary. These were the instructions given to Selena, and the previous instructions given to Hagley. Show him the difference in strength. Correct Frondier's arrogant misconception that he is in a position of superiority. When that happens, don't show any respect or deference to Frondier. '...... This man, I....' Selena swallowed. Selena was making the threats, but it was also Selena who was afraid. On the contrary, she had been waiting for that day to come quickly. The day when she could cast off the annoying honorifics and affectations and threaten Frondier. Selena felt a cold sweat running down her back. 'Will threats work on this guy?' The situation was overwhelmingly in Selena's favor, with the tip of the needle against Frondier's neck. However, Frondier's languid and apathetic eyes made her feel none of that advantage. "Selena, put the needle away." "That's a strange demand coming from someone in your situation. Don't you see how things stand?" "It's you who doesn't understand the situation." That was when Selena felt Frondier's mana manifest. There was no change in his appearance, but it was clear that he was about to do something. "I don't know what you're planning, but stop it." "Rather than talking, it would be faster to just stab me with that needle." Selena bit her lip. As expected, clumsy threats don't work on this guy. The reason Selena preferred needles was not only because they suited her skills, but also because they were more effective for intimidation than swords or magic. Threats work better when they are easy to imagine. Just as it's easier to imagine the pain of a knife piercing the heart than a bullet penetrating the head, So too is it simpler to envisage the agony of a needle burrowing under a fingernail than a knife stabbing the heart. ‘I can't kill this man.’ But a threat that doesn't carry through is no threat at all. An ordinary person would be shaking in their boots, spilling secrets they didn't know they had, but Frondier knows his worth. To suggest that Frondier's mouth must be opened through threats and torture implies, conversely, that he must not be killed. The only reason Frondier's life is at risk now is because of the surprise attack. To torture, one must first restrain, and Selena doubted she could overpower and capture Frondier in a head-on fight. Still, it must be done. Just as Frondier holds no value if he does not speak, so too is she worthless if she cannot make him talk. It's uncertain how long this standoff will last, but from here on, it's a battle of patience. "What's fine about it? I will never," "I'll tell you. What was written." Frondier said something unexpected. "I know my life is precious too, and it seems I might actually die this way." With that, Frondier raised his hands as if surrendering. Selena closed her mouth tightly. Could it be true? Was the content of the ancient language nothing special after all? Then why hide it in the first place? Amidst the confusion swirling in Selena's head, Frondier spoke. "The ancient language read as follows..." Selena waited in silence for Frondier's next words. "Selena, that's your name." "It's the name your parents gave you." At first, Selena didn't understand what he was talking about. But soon she grasped its meaning, and her eyes blazed. "How dare you spout such nonsense!" "Does it sound that way? Your parents raised you without lacking anything. It was only natural. They were nobles, after all," With a flare of anger, Selena grabbed Frondier by the collar and threw her to the ground with all her strength. “If you don’t show yourself right now…!” “Selena, your parents were nobles. Your family name is ‘Barnier.’ Since you lived in the west, there should be ‘de’ attached to it. Your name is ‘Selena de Barnier.’ Does that name ring a bell?” She dismissed it as such. Or at least she tried to convince herself of that. Selena’s hands trembled violently. It was the same when Frondier gave her the name ‘Selena’ for the first time. She felt a strange sense of discomfort. The way the name ‘Selena’ was pronounced felt light, but it resonated deeply within her. Her intuition—no, her soul—cried out as if to warn her against dismissing it as mere nonsense. It felt like a huge case of déjà vu. Frondier continued, ignoring Selena’s confusion. “These are the words I deciphered from the ancient language.” Selena understood Frondier’s intentions. Of course, this wasn’t a sentence deciphered from the ancient language. At this point, that didn’t matter to Selena anymore. “If you doubt me, go to Manggot and ask them about these words. Ask them if it’s true.”
