Episode 186.1
(EP-186.1) Own place #2
186 Each in their own place #2
The short pond date with Mirna literally ended as such, a short date.
The reason being, Mirna didnt even have enough time to enjoy a moment of relaxation.
Its not easy dividing the work and inheritance between the two of us. Sharing it 50-50 so that both parties can be satisfied.
Mirna grumbled about various things, then she unfolded her fan.
No, theres no point complaining about these things So, Theo Gospel, I heard that the trial is on the day after tomorrow?
While leaving the forest path by the pond, Mirna asked me about the approaching event. It seemed that she was interested in the upcoming fight.
Theo Gospel, even if your magic is an advantage and youve gone through various training, Ive heard rumors about this hunter, and it doesnt sound like an ordinary challenge.
So Mirna had also caught wind of the Hunter. Indeed, rumors about him were filled with terrifying things that were not human-like.
Seeing me fight against such an opponent was probably like worrying about leaving a child alone to play by the riverbank.
Then, Mirna let out a thoughtful sound.
However, taking the life of an opponent in a trial by combat is prohibited by the churchs law.
Thats right.
Was it an edict issued because people died too much in the trial?
Mirna said.
Still, theres danger of getting severely injured. As long as you dont kill your opponent, you can do whatever it takes to force them to surrender.
Thats true. But my skills have improved significantly since the day I faced Professor Balan. Youd probably be surprised if you saw me now.
I heard that its in association with the Prince of Tureuki, Kasim?
How did she know that?
It seemed that Mirna was still paying attention to me, even though she said that she had been very busy.
Kasim is not known for his conduct. Theo Gospel, I worry that youll get mixed up in muddy waters by associating yourself with such a man.
Mirna seemed to have heard rumors about Kasim too. Being infamously lustful and a womanizer.
In truth, when you thought about it, I wasnt much different
Like the saying went, birds of a feather would flock together.
He who touched pitch shall be defiled therewith.
Seuk.
Then Mirna offered me something. It was a square piece of paper with characters that looked as if they had been scribbled with a brush.
Is it a charm?
Thats right.
I couldnt help but smile.
An amulet, huh. People really did think alike.
Receiving an amulet twice in a day was a first. Suddenly, memories of the day before the exam came to mind.
Some of my friends were wearing amulets given by their parents.
Back then, I felt a bit envious, thinking, Is that really necessary? But experiencing it firsthand was actually quite refreshing.
Its a lucky charm. I dont expect it to do much, but it might be able to bring a little bit of luck to Sir Theos life.
Thank you very much.
I should be the one saying that Well, I didnt have much time, but I managed whenever I had to spare, so you can be grateful.
Mirnas words made me wonder how great this was and checked the amulet.
Looking at it, I realized that the characters, which I thought were painted with a brush, were actually meticulously embroidered, one stitch at a time.
It was made by hand.
Yes. Feel free to show it off wherever you go. Especially to Lady Lioness, you can boast about it a lot~.
Mirna puffed her chest proudly.
The band-aid on her hand now made sense.
Seuk.
Then Mirna looked at me.
By the way, Sir Theo, Ive noticed that our eye levels dont quite match. Did you grow taller?
Mirna stuck close to me.
She had a refreshing apple mint scent. I felt somewhat embarrassed, as she lightly touched my forehead and measured my height.

After separating with Mirna, I returned to the dormitory.
I felt tired after all the walking around and meeting with several people.
Like an overheated car spitting out smoke. Still, I was able to endure due to Elgas training.
Alright, I was making progress.
I was growing.

==================================
My level was quite high at 43.
I could roughly stand along Elga, Mirna, or even Aira. Although, compared to them, I only had one combat-related job mage.
Still, I had an ace up my sleeve. Truly a card worthy of being called a joker. Depending on the situation, it would be a game changer.
Your job level has reached the limit, you can advance to a higher rank job.
