☀️ Arselia and Akonia Auto-translated

A spry old man whose looks are better than Gillon's.

The old man still looks great, and he was even more handsome in his youth... Kayas can attest to that!

I suddenly understood why Theria was a better ruler than Sonata. Because under Theria, a simple working man could have sex with Sonata, but under Sonata, he couldn't.

There was so much new information... But she shouldn't have turned completely into a bookworm; she needed to take breaks. One of the most important things during such a break is successfully mastering past experience...

The Knight goes out for some fresh air and starts with a run. A short one, ten kilometers: and although using Kumari's watch was clearly illegal, it was still very pleasant to cover this distance in five minutes... Of course, there is no limit to perfection; now, after the encounter with the dragon, the girl had entirely different standards of speed to strive for (+1 Speed).

Next: many, many strikes with a war hammer. The watch helps her tire out faster here too, and the weapon itself, due to its design features, turns out to be a good trainer for Endurance and Strength (+2 and +5). The girl destroyed quite a few dummies, practicing strikes while imagining all her past battles, especially the last one with the dragon... Eh, what a pleasant sound it was when Rock collided with the dragon's carcass; the echo resonated throughout all the same Kridear mountains... She should definitely repeat that later.

In this way, the girl spent (290   +   300   +   310   +   320   +   330   +   340   +   350   +   360)=2600 experience and rounded off her main combat parameters, leaving 1911 experience in case she has to learn something in a hurry...

Did she have any time left for books today? Most likely not anymore, even considering that one can read during patrols under the moonlight. But she had risen at the crack of dawn, so there were probably no particular problems with further and rapid absorption of knowledge.

XII - Sellun es Diesra Arual

"I don't approve of shirking one's duties, however, can such a cunning coronation in favor of Harisen Linefront be called shirking, or simply the acceptance of a fate decided at two years of age? Wait... I must say, this book contrasts sharply with the previous one. Emperor Raidark provided for a defensive pact with dragons, but failed to provide a proper heir? It doesn't quite add up. Could it be that Harisen Linefront came to power quite predictably and according to plan, even if it isn't written anywhere? Because the other version is that Raidark simply wasn't interested in perspectives several decades ahead, only centuries... Sounds possible, but a bit cold."

XIII - Shinalun es Diesra Arual
-1 AP, -4 hours.
+5 to Beauty or Agility (F), +5 to Strength or Endurance (M).

"Doing... What on the balcony? After Welfern, another personality who buries the romance of love with their actions. I must admit, none of this inspires me at all; in contrast, it's better to study the history of the war with the skrymes more carefully, although not much is written about it... In short, girly things are girly things, but in this specific case, the male bonus is closer to me, due to certain specifics )"
"Although fine, what's available to choose from: stockings, skirts, tights? Well, that's just... wearing such things is an easy science... Oh, contests. Songs, dances... This is truly a useful thing; I want to become more gallant, as befits true knights, which will at least come in handy at the contest at the end of the month."

Takes +5 Agility.

XIV - Kermaria es Diesra Arual
-1 AP, -4 hours.
+50% to Dark Affinity or 1000 exp (static). 

🥰🥰🥰
"I love such contrasts, how sweet... And it's right; if a girl doesn't know how to be sweet, then what does she need magic and strength for? Nothing, it's all empty."

Takes +50% Dark Affinity.

XV - Shen es Diesra Arual
-1 AP, -4 hours.
+50 to Luck or -5 to a chosen characteristic.

Having read this book and feeling a nasty aftertaste in her mouth, Erephir silently raises a fist to the sky:
"Uuuuuugh! What kind of family do you have, absolutely vile!"

+50 Luck.

XVI - Naer es Diesra Arual
-1 AP, -4 hours.
+5 to a chosen characteristic. 

"Now this is a truly heroic story! Here we have the Dragon King himself, a period of seclusion, a wise Mitsurugian sensei, elves, and the return of the true monarch to the throne, and the wonderful settlement of conflicts through incredible diplomatic skills... It's like reading a fairy tale; could it really have been that way, or was Emperor Naer slightly romanticized? But even if only half of what is written is true, he is an incredible personality. It's almost a pity that the book can be read only once, focusing on one particular aspect. For me, this aspect will be... Well, as usual, I need to improve my survival skills."

+5 Endurance.

After this, Fyr wishes to try and finish the cycle, if she can manage it, before sunrise.

The Knight goes out for some fresh air and starts with a run. A short one, ten kilometers: and although using Kumari's watch was clearly illegal, it was still quite pleasant to complete that distance in five minutes...

Another Elrin with a temporary enhancer. Oh, this convergence-divergence...

"I love such contrasts, it's so cute... And it's right, if a girl doesn't know how to be cute, then what's the point of magic and strength for her? It's all pointless."

And after such comments, Erephir still tries to deny it.

I suddenly understood why Thiar was a better ruler than Sonata.

Because under Thiar, a simple worker could have sex with Sonata, but under Sonata, he couldn't.

And under Sonata, could a simple worker have sex with Thiar?

No, for that, one would have had to complete a training course at a special institution or somehow stand out.

- Hello, Klin.

... ... ... Klin, looking puzzled, stands frozen in the doorway, shifting his gaze from the "guest" to Sanex and back.

- Your Grace, I am glad to see you in good health! - Not entirely convinced that his half-rotten eyes are not deceiving him, the knight removes his decorative crown and makes a bow. - I knew, I believed, that after resolving the hopeless problem, you would return soon. - Scanning the kitchen table for tea, coffee, and snacks, he modestly adds: - Please, our hospitality is at your service. This is somewhat unexpected, but... How can our humble abode be of service to such a high-ranking visit?

Who is she, and what is she famous for?

scanning the kitchen table for tea, coffee, and snacks

You have a treat from Carneolis in your hands.

— I had expected that after what happened in Kriedaar and after being freed from the invisible shackles upon seeing my face, you would try to strangle me with your hands or slash at me with your soul-devouring blade with all your might, but it seems Kripov was right when he said that human nature is a constant, not a variable.

Taken aback by the unexpected exchange of "greetings," Sanexa remained silent, trying not to look at the princess.

— I am aware that Karneol defeated Beznyadiga. Bring me the one to whom his curse has been transferred.

Goodbye, everyone.

like, is that Naria?

it would be an awkward situation if I came across this artwork because it doesn't really look like her. I thought it was some random character.

I wouldn't have recognized my own mother...
Although, I didn't recognize her right away either, but I knew it was her by the color of her eyes/hair.

Yes, that would be unfortunate.

Is that supposed to be Naria?

It would have been an awkward situation if I had seen this artwork because it doesn't resemble her at all. I thought it was some random character.

I was sure you were joking, until your post.
