The Reasonable Use of Mist Magic
“Julian” The elf replied softly, “I can no longer use that last name, let the past be the past”
It was as if the dwarf could not hear what he said, he just raised his hand to his face, pinching himself hard
“Aaaaaahhhhhh – If this is a dream please don’t let me wake up!”
Seeing that he had indeed regained his energy, the knight moved over to the elf
“Find anything?”
The elf pointed to the face of the body, theto peel
The e, the color of his skin indicated someone that stayed indoors The cane was obviously a staff in disguise, froic potions and runes, the bottles carried the insignia of the Mage Academy
“Traitor?”
“Perhaps,” the elf nodded, “fro, we should be able to find his records in the Mage Academy”
“Then the next step –“
“Investigate the chief’s roonome’s side…”
“Don’t worry,” the knight patted his shoulder, “everything else can wait It’s best to take care of the body, then go back to rest”
“Do I look very worried?” the elf lifted his head, sht, “Perhaps”
As if they timed it, the conversation between the siren and the dwarf started to become loud
“So Ellen is that famous?”
“Fah to describe it! He is the user of the endary Era look up to hi minstrels –“
“Julian! Please stop!” the elf final couldn’t take it and stood up, his face carrying a hint of red, “It’s very e…”
“Eh? But…”
“No buts, that’s an order!”
The knight looked between the elf and dwarf, finally couldn’t resist laughing
“Julian, leave it at that If you say any another hole, to bury him as well”
“I don’t understand…” the dwarf said stubbornly, “isn’t it so to be proud of?”
“You’ll understand one day,” the elf looked as if he wanted to hide behind the knight, “when you’re being scrutinized”
The dwarf didn’t see worshi+pful, he looked at the nor weapon on the elf’s back
“Could it be… that bow is–?”
“At a discounted price froold including the quiver and twenty four arrows”
“Eh… then… what happened to ‘Morningstar’?”
“… I don’t know,” the elf shook his head, “anyways I don’t have the ability to control that now”
In a delicate silence, they buried the body of theto the rooms of the ‘Gnome Inn’
“… Even though I’” The dwarf said in a small voice, “Is this called insomnia?”
“Go take a bath first,” the siren suddenly suggested happily, “human bathhouses are really fun”
“True,” the knight looked down as his , “seize this opportunity In a few days, even if you want to take a bath it would only be with cold water”
The bathing facilities of the ‘Gnoround, a cauldron sat on top of a stove There’s a well in the courtyard, wood and water bucket was placed on one side, everything was left for the clients to assist themselves
The inside of the bathing rooe, but there was still wooden boards lining out individual cubicles
“That’s surprisingly detailed and considerate of privacy,” the knight said in surprise, “it feels much better than Elvira”
“Could it be to prevent incidents of ‘picking up soap’ fro?”(1) the Siren asked
“What is ‘picking up soap’?”
“…Julian, don’t ask” The knight seeain
In order to prevent the siren froht picked hi with the hot water
