Okay, so here's the plan:
Sayuri moves to the upper right corner.
Zenira uses Spear on Archer 2.
Emilia uses Fireball on Warrior 1.
Etal continues to attack Warrior 2.

"Varen is a decent guy! He knows all the best places in town. And the drinks are good, and the girls are great." - Krailos thought as he walked towards the armory. At first, this rundown little town didn't make a good impression on him, but now his opinion has changed somewhat. Despite this, the abundance of all sorts of monsters that have infested the area could not help but worry the former legionnaire, and the high prices that the local merchants charged did not allow him to stay here and work as a mercenary. "Well, okay, I'll finish the tournament and leave by the end of the week if I don't find any more interesting and profitable work." - Krailos decided for himself.

The legionnaire was greeted by the same girl as last time. It seems she didn't recognize him.
- I'm listening.

Ok.

Nebok, is the nymph far away?

-Hello, beautiful! Have you forgotten me? I came by yesterday, asking about borrowing some weapons for a while. Did you ask the owner about it? It's a good idea, considering the current times; no one has any money, and this way, you'll both benefit, and you'll even improve your reputation. That's it.

Nebok, is the nymph far?

- Greetings, beauty! Have you truly forgotten me? I stopped by yesterday, asking about borrowing some weapons, just for a while. Did you find out what the owner thinks about that? It's a good idea, considering the current times—no one has any money, and this way you profit, and you'll boost your reputation to boot. There we go.

- Ah, it's you. Wait a minute, I'll call the owner.

- Hello Kan, old man, how are you doing? – said a balding man, entering the smithy.
- Ooo, Shuzh, you farm-faced lug, you finally showed up! – the blacksmith replied, setting aside the sword he was sharpening, approached the man, gave him a firm handshake, and hugged him just as tightly.
- Don't crush me!
- Hey Shion, bring some water for the guest from the road, - the blacksmith addressed his young apprentice, a boy of about fourteen.
- And where is your son? I've brought him a wife! He-he! – Shuzh said, pulling his daughter into the room from behind the doorway. – Here, this is the one, Leona.
- Wow! – exclaimed the blacksmith. – What a beauty. Jenon is lucky; we don't have any like her in town.



Leona grew shy and blushed.
- Just like her mother. She was just as beautiful.
- It's a good thing she didn't take after you, or I'd never have married her off! Ha-ha!
The farmer waved his hand and smiled.
- Oh, shut it. I was always the top bachelor in the village.
- Heh, well, that's true. By the way, how's the harvest, the mares, the cows—is business booming?
- I can't complain. The harvest should be good, just like last year. My Zolat is studying those fairy things. He comes home during the sowing season and sprinkles fairy flour. For three years now, there haven't been any harvest problems. The mares sell well, the foals are being born, everything's on track, basically—well, almost everything. Knock on wood, - the man replied, tapping his head three times. - And how about you?
- Everything's fine, and here comes the water, - the blacksmith was interrupted by Shion, who entered with a pitcher of water and three mugs on a tray. The boy poured water for the guests and the owner and then departed. - So, as I was saying, everything's fine, knock on wood. We'll throw a grand wedding! You pick out a beautiful dress, or sew one yourself if you want. You know how to sew?
- She knows how to do everything, - Shuzh answered for his daughter. – She's studying alchemy, she'll be an alchemist. I'm actually planning to go negotiate with Eril. I'll place her there.
- Hm, alchemy, then, and smart too, - said the blacksmith.
- Oh, too smart! That's why she needs a watchful eye!
- Heh, no worries, we'll keep an eye on her.
- Say, what about your favorite daughter? Didn't she get married? – the farmer asked with a smile.
- Are you mocking me? You're hitting where it hurts, and you still call yourself a friend.
- Come on now! Don't be angry. Better yet, tell this story to my daughter; it'll be a lesson, - Shuzh said, nodding toward his daughter.
- There's nothing to tell. Twenty years ago, some Elf was here. Rumor has it, a bunch of women got knocked up by him. My fool got her share too. And the main thing is, everyone else had normal children, but mine is fair-haired with huge green eyes. If my wife hadn't died giving birth to that mare, I would have strangled her with my own hands.
- Do you understand? Only a husband! - the farmer addressed Leona, tugging at her dress; she lowered her gaze and nodded in response.
- But it's alright, a couple of years later I found a new one. Prettier and faithful. Pity she died too, giving birth to twins. She was a good woman. And the third one died of a sickness; I didn't even get to know her properly. I didn't marry again.
- You have no luck with women, Kan.
- Indeed, indeed...
- And what does your foster child do?
- She used to help me in the smithy, but now she's planning to join the legion. Fool.
- The legion?! He-he! Well yeah, why am I surprised. She's almost two meters tall. If she weren't fair-haired and light-eyed, she'd pass for your daughter.
- Well, yeah... by the way, you can see her at the Tournaments if you have time. She's stronger than half the men I know. And she's plastered herself with those dwarven trinkets like some savage, honestly.
- At least she can fend off annoying men herself.
- Oh, it's a real drama with that. Three of the mayor's great-grandsons asked for her hand, two merchants, three mages from the Society, and even the senator's son. Not a chance. She says: "if you force me to marry, I'll kill the husband and then myself," it's a nightmare.
- Oh, and the mayor's bastards too.
- Yeah, I think I'll have problems soon because she rejected all three of them.
- The youngest recently showed up at my place with his little buddies, the little brat. And he says straight out, without hints, basically: "pay up, your business is going too well, better than on your great-grandfather's farm." I spat in his arrogant face and told him it was high time his great-grandfather was buried.
- Wow, you've got balls of steel!
- Nah, not at all, I'm still a coward. It's just that Zolat left me a few puppies and a big tree. I whistled, and the wolf pups came running. You've seen mountain wolves, right? Adults are almost the size of a cow, and mine haven't grown up yet. So the mayor's lackeys crapped themselves and decided to bail. They threatened me, though. Well, whatever, soon my Zolat will be in the Society, and then that bony ass and his spawn will be afraid to even look at my land. Ha, I was thinking, maybe introduce your foster daughter to my Zolat? He's a sharp guy, he'll go far!
- Heh, you tell her that.
- I'll chat with her about it! Alright, let's go drink something, to the meeting and the future wedding.
- Fine. Shion! Lock my smithy and help Lika in the shop. I'll be gone for a bit.
- Will do, Mr. Kan! – the boy responded, running toward his master's shout.
- Let's go, Leona. You'll see what a place looks like where a decent girl has nothing to do without a husband or a father.
________________________
- Mr. Kan, - a girl called to the blacksmith as she entered the smithy. - There's some suspicious man asking to rent weapons.
- Shuzh, you go on, I'll catch up.

The girl returns to Krailos together with her master. Blacksmith Kan was over two meters tall, very muscular, with a large beard and long black hair streaked with gray.

The legionary politely greeted the blacksmith and introduced himself. "I must say, you have excellent products here," he said, looking around at the weapons and armor. "I wanted to try them out at the local tournament. But the thing is, I don't have enough money. You can't earn much with honest work. So, I wanted to offer to rent something for a week. If I succeed in the competition, I'll buy it, and if not, I'll return it. You won't lose much. In the west, I heard that such offers are in great demand. Progressive people!" he added.

-- Let's play, heh, -- Leroy headed towards the nymph. -- I wouldn't mind having some fun with you...

"I wanted to try them out at the local tournament. But the thing is, I'm a little short on cash, and you can't earn much with honest work. So, I wanted to offer to rent something for a week. If I succeed in the competition, I'll buy it, and if not, I'll return it. You won't lose much. In the west, I heard, such offers are in high demand. Progressive people!" he added.

The blacksmith looked closely at Krailos.
- Served?

- Who are you?! - the nymph shouted at Leroy.

- Who are you?! - shouted the nymph, Lyra.

Leroy said nothing and began hacking at the nymph with his axe, trying to cut off her path back to the lake.

There, Cenira missed x) are you changing things?
