⚔️Serberia

Do we have anyone who can cast Resurrection, just in case? I could send Renold with you to fight the Golem, if that would be helpful.

Since the items didn't have price tags, I had to ask Sabina, the store manager, about the cost.
—All the books cost one hundred seligs.

—One hundred?... —Ilva counted her pocket money, looking confused. —Oh, I don't have that much right now. Sorry, I'll come back later...
After silently cursing the merchants who were overcharging, Ilva decided to go look for her brother, hoping he hadn't left the Baron's estate yet.

—People are losing money quite often these days... The Goddess has an interesting sense of humor. —Gungnir accepted 50 seligs. —You need to hone your basic skills and have a couple of tricks up your sleeve, and then you'll be close to becoming a master duelist. The unpleasant truth is that any duel is primarily a matter of luck and circumstances, and skill and combat experience are only necessary to reduce the influence of these factors that are independent of you on the outcome of the battle. Given your physical abilities and equipment, what path to victory over Veserod and Gulveig do you see?

Renold listened carefully to the Baron's advice. At least, judging by everything, he was generally moving in the right direction, which was very encouraging. He often heard that some people are born with a talent for something, while others, even with hard work, will never achieve anything worthwhile, and he didn't want to find out that he and fencing were simply incompatible.
—Tricks up my sleeve? Hmm, I should think about that. Thank you very much. As for Veserod and Gulveig... —the young man paused for a moment. —Well, I could compare the first one to my duel with Anders, which means I need agility to dodge arrows, speed to quickly catch up with him, and luck. A lot of luck. —he smiled bitterly. —As for Gulveig... I just couldn't inflict enough serious damage, and in the end I got exhausted without causing any harm. Maybe I should have attacked more aggressively. Or more often.
