In the next few minutes before the start of the Array Creation and Solo Competition, all participants went to their respective sides.
Owen and Hamish immediately turned to Kyran for directions.
Kyran inwardly scratched his head. While he appreciated the trust these two gave him, he also felt guilty for lying to them. Both looked at him as a pillar of the Blacksmith Order because he was Chairman Noir's disciple. However, it was all a lie, which made Kyran feel bad.
Suppressing the guilt within him, Kyran focused on the matter at hand. He knew there was a good reason the head committee wanted to use three Advanced Arrays to test them in the competition. When the announcer said they would not provide the formulas, Kyran already sensed a conspiracy behind it.
They did not want to give the formula not because they wanted to test their Array knowledge but because they did not know the whole formula themselves.
