The 20th of December arrived. Leo got up early that day. They had decided to meet up at the same inn early in the morning so that they could quickly set out to the forest. He already confirmed with Daphne and she was coming too. He got up and got ready. He could already hear the sounds from her room so he knew she was up. He got dressed in clothes where his mobility wouldn't be constricted. He got out of the room and waited for her. When she came out, they set out. They got to the inn where Leo…

The next day passed quickly and both of them got ready to see the results of their training. Daphne consolidated her increase in strength with the second pill. They went to the forest, with Daphne only bringing 10 arrows. All of them were in a quiver on her back. She carried fewer arrows to stay more mobile. Her clothes were also very sleek to allow mobility. Leo brought his dagger with him. He sincerely hoped he wouldn't have to use his magic. His plan was that he would only keep the Magical Beast…

Leo came out of his room with a smile on his face. He had finally become a Late-Stage 1st Star Mage. He knew that he was making progress because it was getting easier and easier to hunt two Magical Beasts every day, but this was progress on paper. Also, now that he had sold an extra Magic Core for 10 days, he had gathered enough money to get 2 Aura Gathering Pills. He realized that the only reason he was able to kill the Magical Beasts so easily was because he was a mage. Aura Knights would be able to…

When they went to the forest, Leo put Daphne in the same spot where they had practiced earlier. The remnants of the chalk circles were still there but faded away because of the weather. He went to the tree and redrew the circles with the chalk. He looked at Daphne. "Okay, I am going to practice while you practice your bow. Okay?" He said. She nodded. She was standing a little further away than she had the first day. She was making progress, but she was still close enough to the tree that she could…
-
"Wait. Why do you not know this? Did you break through to become a 1st Circle Aura Knight without even using an Aura Gathering Pill?" Evelyn asked him. Leo was confused by the question. Since Daphne had reached the 1st Circle without needing anything, he thought that was the norm. He nodded. "Wow, you are incredibly talented. I thought that you were able to become an Aura Knight because you were rich and could afford so many resources. Who would have thought that you are this talented?" Clarice…
-
Another day passed similarly and the day when Leo was supposed to meet with Clarice arrived. He decided that he wouldn't bring Daphne with him yet, but he would tell them about her and see if they were okay with her joining him. He still hadn't decided whether or not she was ready to join him since she had just started using a bow and arrow. He still hadn't seen her make an impact on even a normal animal, much less a 2nd Circle Magical Beast. He got ready and went to the hall. Daphne was waiting…
-
He immediately went back to his house. The trip he made today only made him confirm his expectations of the Blacktooth Gang. It was better if he just killed all of them. He took out the pouch that he took from the stronger of the two. It was a black pouch with a skull embroidered onto it. The skull was all gold except one tooth which blended into the black pouch. He emptied the contents of the pouch onto his bed. It was a lot of money. He took out the crumpled notes and coins and started counting them…
-
The man who just spoke was the husband that sold off his wife and daughter to the Blacktooth Gang. He himself was clearly a member of the gang because he was wearing the same outfit as the other members that Leo had seen. Leo was incredibly furious at the man's response. The minute he heard him say that, Leo aimed his hand at him. He was in the shadows so they hadn't even seen him yet. He cast a magic bullet at the man beside the husband. The bullet flew into the man's forehead and pierced his brain.…

When they got back, Daphne immediately rushed back into her room to try out her new Aura Technique. She wasn't going to shoot the arrows, but she could still try to imbibe her aura into them. "Don't stress too hard. Once you think you have the hang of it, we can go to the Forest to practice." Leo said. "Yes, got it." She said. She was not planning on listening to him. Leo sighed and went back to his room to get rest. This was because the next day, he was going to do some recon work. He was going to…
-
"Congratulations!" Leo stepped forward and hugged Daphne. "This is really good news!" After hugging her, he suddenly thought of an idea. He knew that Daphne wouldn't stop bothering him unless he took her with him to the forest. He would also be able to appreciate the help that she could give to him. As he predicted, she immediately raised the conversation about going to the forest. "So, I am coming with you next time you go out right?" She asked him. "Not yet. We have to find you a proper gift to…
