yes i have to go and meet with Mr heron
hmm, good luck valerius
thank you miss everina

can you let me take a look?
yes, also miss everina do you know swordsmanship?
somewhat
so, what is your swordsmanship title?
my swordsmanship title? its grandmaster
here, your foot is all fine now. i am surprised your foot healed so quickly you didn't even need healing magic to the extent it is required for patients with that kind of injury
do you have any idea why that is so?
no but maybe if i research it i can get to know it better
thank you very much miss everina now i will be going to meet mr heron
yeah
saying that vale leaves the room and walks towards the exit of the building
wait! where is the office of mr heron? i should ask some passerby
thinking that vale started walking again as he took an exit out of the medical facilities he came across several buildings the architecture of this buildings looked unique something he has never seen before as he kept walking he came across a temple it looked like an eastern temple so he decided to enter it. on making his way inside the temple he noticed it was completely empty on walking further inside he saw a woman fainted inside the temple. seeing that woman fainted vale decided to leave suddenly the woman called out to him from behind
wait! why would you not help an unknown woman who has fainted?
i am leaving

no buts you will listen to as i say. how is your foot now?
its fine now
good than go and meet amanda tomorrow morning and start your training for swordsmanship
i will do that. i also have something else i want to talk about
what is it?
when i was making my way here i came across a temple there i met a priestess her name was glycina she was fainted in that temple i talked to glycina but she didn't say anything more do you know anything about her?
so you met glycina, its a long story she has been shunned by the entire town except select few individuals who actually care about her rest of the people hate her they have stopped visiting that temple and it is completely abandoned. some people go there to feed her some times but thats about it
so can you do me a favor and send food two times a day to the place where she stays?
very well i will listen to that request of yours
thank you
start your swordsmanship training from tomorrow
