Nira was very pleased with her impromptu speech: of course, she could have expressed herself more restrainedly about the vacation, but that way, the echoes of her words even reached the most gloomy faces in the hall.

—Hmm, I did hear something about military training, but to this extent? 🤨 —she murmured thoughtfully, receiving her brand-new uniform. —I hope this is solely for self-defense purposes, and not for a future imperial guard, like in that exam question, hee hee. 😁
Stopping in front of the weapon stand, Nira met her new acquaintance.

Meanwhile, Cassia spoke to Nira.
—What do you think I should take? To be honest, I have no experience with weapons.

—Whoa, friend, this isn't about picking shoes to match a dress; I don't have any knowledge about this either. 😞
After a brief examination of the weapons on offer, Nira's gaze almost immediately fell on the pistols.
—Well, for example, look at this! It's a modern thing, it doesn't force you to risk your life at close range, it's convenient to carry, and easy to use. So, beware, evil bandit in a dark alley, yo ho ho. 🔫😎
I would choose the first one that appeals to you. Although, of course, I think ranged combat is always safer, but you have good physical abilities, so you might enjoy wielding a huge sword or impaling enemies on spears, heh.
