🍁Nine Ancient Obelisks

Meanwhile, the trio and Lezedi started talking about something, and the conversation quickly turned to the recently finished tournament.
- I didn't expect to lose in the very first match, she said. - It's a disgrace to my Larsidan heritage!
- Ha-ha, don't worry so much, Sheila said, greeting the new acquaintance warmly. - Not everyone can handle such a giant, especially one clad in armor! But it's strange that he had enough sense not to clash with Erika; usually, such muscleheads are very stupid.

- That rich artist, who paid for the second one's healing, gave him a good idea. He's a friend of my friend. We both went through "training" together in our guild. She must have told him about my "tricks." I guess I'll call it... "Asugukh Bath," that's it! - Erika laughed.
- So... he must have listened to the artist. Especially since he had the good fortune to observe it personally on his "partner." He thought about it, and... made the right decision...
- What am I going to tell my friend about the stolen monocle... - Erika added with a sigh.
