After giving Lu Cang a bit of a pep talk, Iz asked again, "These must be the Forbidden Techniques stored at the headquarters, right?"
"How on earth did you get them?"
Lu Cang thought for a moment and decided to be a little more forthright.
He said, "I've made some progress as a Decryption Scholar recently... I broke through the Restrictions there."
"Ooh~"
"Can you break through others?"
"Uh... I suppose so," Lu Cang replied, not wanting to sound too certain.
"I remember the Dark Forbidden Techniques in the Dark Church being quite interesting. It's just a shame they sealed them away so well that I never had a chance to get my hands on them."
"Being hunted by the Dark Church would be a real hassle, too."
"They hunted me for a long time after I 'borrowed' the original tome of cold back in the day."
'I actually *did* borrow it...'
'Iz, you just blatantly robbed them, didn't you?'
