Year 1, Summer, First Month, Fourth Week. “Ow! This is amazing! The sword gets sharper when the crystal touches it! Muhaha, see how I’ll cut down the beasts!” Diana laughed maniacally while testing her sword. For the past week, Karl made some improvements to all weapons. First, he remade the Rune imprints in the weapons using the golden grass he collected. Since the golden grass had better magic conductivity than the white grass, the Runes’ effects would be strengthened. Hopefully, Tael’s…

Year 1, Summer, First Month, Third Week. Standing at the edge of the village barrier, the four teens reassured the Chief that they were prepared. Since they would only go three to five kilometers outside, the journey shouldn’t take more than three hours. The plan was to go out, collect the materials, and comeback without engaging any beasts. If they met with one they would try to run back, prioritizing their safety. Diana wasn’t happy about the plan, she wanted to test her sword but Chief Omero…

Year 1, Summer, First Month, First Week. “Run, run. You need to go faster Toni. Imagine if we were running from a beast, you would be dead... Look at Tael, he passed you three times already...” “Sorry. That’s not fair, my legs are shorter and I’m heavier than him! You said that I’d be using a shield to block the beasts, why do I need to run?” “Stop complaining Toni, do you think you can block everything?.... Diana, why isn’t Karl training?” “Humpf! He’s working on our…
