Year 2, Fall, Third Month, Fourth Week. Lew look ahead and saw the small long-haired girl walking fast but stealthfully towards the walls that surrounded the magic fields. He gave a mental sigh before laughing at himself, why was he more annoyed with the fact that he was being led by a teenager than with the fact they were attacking one of the Kingdom’s facilities? Maybe he was already being affected by the villagers’ sense of normality. When they asked him to remain on the last batch being sent to…

Year 2, Fall, Third Month, Fourth Week. “Tell the Council… To start moving…” This was all Karl manage to speak before his conscience slipped away. Anya asked Wein to carry their Master to the wooden bench before dashing out of the Alchemy pavilion. She only had to give a few steps outside to find a bunch of expectant elders. They had nothing else to do besides waiting for Karl, so they took turns walking outside of the pavilion. She took a few seconds to catch her breath before pouring a lot…

Year 2, Fall, Third Month, Third Week. Lana walked around the village feeling extremely uncomfortable with the staring, they weren’t that exotic, were they? Besides the strange staring and the military reception, she thought the village was pretty normal, which was a surprise. She never went to a resource village before, but she knew about their living conditions, it was supposed to be miserable and decaying. However, what she encountered was a crude-looking village but otherwise, busy and full of…

Year 2, Fall, Third Month, First Week Reiner almost choked at the man’s question, everyone working around them stopped and discretely (visibly) waited for her answer. For the Origin, she had been corned by the polite blacksmith and now she would have to answer him or risk confirming his suspicions without any kind of explanation. “We’re humble people Mister Arnold, but weren’t stupid, we wouldn’t throw away our lives fighting against the Kingdom… However, we’re done living under their…

Year 2, Fall, Third Month, First Week. One minute passed, then two and finally three. Toni released his long-held breath and turn towards Caiset’s direction, he wished Karl could bring the magic barrier soon. The construction of the Outpost had been progressing well, but the possibility of a MT beast appearing at any time was crushing his nerves. Again, why was he chosen for this task? Either way, he could only accept his obligations and do his best. The sound of crushing leaves caught Toni’s…

Year 2, Fall, Second Month, Third Week. Toni stared at the Forest for a good ten minutes, he wasn’t ready to enter. The other team members didn’t know what he was waiting for, but they didn’t ask, everyone had to deal with their own hesitation. The pressure emanating from the Forest kept him from getting lost in his thoughts, why had they decided to give him this task? He wasn’t the smartest, the fastest or even the best at killing the beasts. He couldn’t find an answer but standing here…

Year 2, Fall, Second Month, First Week. Diana gave a discrete sigh while exchanging a “save me” look with Karl. Fortunately, the discussion had dialed down to details confirming and would soon end, hopefully! Karl could only smile apologetically, after all, they had less than two months to put the escape plan in full motion, nothing short of thoughtfully planned should be allowed at this stage. “Do you think the magic locator will be ready until the end of the week?” Katlyn’s tone didn’t…

Year 2, Fall, First Month, First Week. Keller couldn’t stop thinking of what Lew said, he could only guess that the Fighter had seen things the villagers keep hidden, which convinced him. Even though Keller was investing in the village, he took its future destruction as a foregone conclusion. His presence and support aimed mostly to build a bridge strong enough to save some Alchemy crafters before the village was destroyed. However, Lew’s conviction pointed to another possibility. From a business…

Year 2, Fall, First Month, First Week. Reiner walked around the pavilion mumbling incoherent words while being followed by her nervous assistant. She was already used to having too many tasks to manage, but the upcoming first Alchemy test brought a new level of stress. Initially, she thought it would be better to skip this year's test because of their imminent escape, but Karl reassured her of the need for the annual test. They had to keep the students and disciples motivated, and the chance to improve…

Year 2, Summer, Third Month, Fourth Week. “I already explained it… When I need to run faster, I just push the magic energy to my leg muscles and joints, the rest is just balancing the speed to avoid stumbling. I don’t know how the energy works specifically, but I guess it improves that region temporarily…” To understand Lew's ability and its effects, Karl decided to take the step-by-step approach, focusing on one process at a time. The chosen technique was the improving speed, which was…
