Posts from The Empire of Reimia (3) Auto-translated

Linnea herself was surprised by what had happened. Yaspis was acting simply strangely, especially for a student of such a prestigious institution. However, Ipheon's reaction didn't please her either. "Listen, I understand your emotions. I'm not even sure how I would have acted in a similar situation, but..." the Reimi sighed heavily and looked sternly at the young man, "...but the last thing, in my opinion, was already excessive. Undoubtedly, she was incredibly annoying and tactless, and that's putting it mildly, but she is still weaker than you. And if she ever gets the idea to do something like that again, it's better to talk to Yuki about it right away. If necessary, I will confirm it. In fact, we can do it right now to resolve this issue. Just promise me that you won't do anything like that again."

Ipheon paused for a moment, as if weighing various options in his mind and discarding those that could not be mentioned for certain reasons. "I do not wish to make a larger event of this problem than it deserves, but I also have no intention of tolerating such treatment toward myself. I believe Jaspis has learned her lesson, and on that note, this incident shall be concluded."

- Combat training - counterattack (Mari Kamiya)

Here.

Counterattack and park.

In the park of Parfynor, she encounters Romeo and Azarina, who had declined her offer to take the position of vice-president of the class. They didn't seem to mind her presence, so she joined their conversation if she wished.
— Hmm... — Romeo looked thoughtful, examining the scabbard on Azarina's lap, as if trying to confirm his thoughts about what was hidden inside, — Is that so?
Instead of answering, Azarina dramatically drew the scabbard and revealed a one-handed sword of exquisite craftsmanship, adorned with various symbols.
— Fiammael! — Romeo exclaimed. — I've heard that after the fall of Theria, this weapon passed from hand to hand among various scoundrels until it finally ended up with the noble Eisenbach family, but I couldn't be sure that the Emperor would allow anyone else to keep one of his family's ancient relics.
— "For services to the Empire," Azarina explained the official reason for the weapon being given to her family, — although, as I think, the Emperor simply didn't feel any attachment to this sword, while, from a strategic point of view, even such a rare artifact of antiquity no longer has much significance in modern warfare...
— Nevertheless, I am surprised. Emperor Kamia Ren has always been a man who respected his family and its history.
— Perhaps not "that" history. How much misfortune has this blade brought, how many innocent people have been deprived of their lives by its edge during its use in Theria?
— Sometimes you surprise me, — Azarina allowed her companion to use her sword, and Romeo made a few movements with it; it was clear that the young aristocrat had been trained in a certain noble fencing style, which, however, would be absolutely useless in modern warfare, — a magnificent weapon imbued with great history. You should wear it with your head held high.

Ah, damn, I still need to find that vicik.
-I agree with both of you,” said Parphinora. “This weapon is indeed connected to a dark period in our history. But it is still part of our shared heritage, however grim it may be. What is even more important is that with this gesture, the emperor showed how highly he values the Eisenbach family. Azarina, I can understand if you don't feel proud of the period of Thiar's reign, but you should be proud of your family. May I? - Parphinora extended her hand towards the sword.
Finally, I can participate in an aristocratic bonding ritual.

Shogo: +285

where is the other wizard?!

I didn't even get friendship points?)

- Combat Training - Counterattack (Mari Kamiya)

I'm going there.

Latro stood before the mirror, gazing at his reflection. His bloodshot eyes were narrowed, his gaze firm. His slender, frail body trembled, and every square centimeter of his skin felt the roughness of the clothes he wore. His heart pounded, but he could manage it. Today, he faced a serious challenge – physical training drills, being a helpless pawn in the clutches of a bloodthirsty harpy. Not long ago, the thought would have terrified him, but after meeting his senior and participating in several joint training sessions, he no longer felt such anxiety. And although he understood that it was necessary to be in good physical shape for war, he couldn't shake the feeling that their instructor from hell was worse than any potential enemy on the battlefield. Slapping himself on the cheeks, he put on a stern expression and roared several times, feeling the destructive demonic energy flowing through his veins with each exhale. Without changing his expression, he resolutely left the room and walked with a spring in his step towards the training ground.

Fiammael ends up in the hands of Parfynora. Besides the exquisite design and convenience of the weapon itself, the aristocrat also feels as if something is weighing on her, as if someone's will, filled with malice and power, is pressing down.

They didn't even give me friendship points?

And you've already completed it?

Then I go to Avik.

Fiammael ends up in Parfynora's hands. Besides the exquisite design and convenience of the weapon itself, the aristocrat also feels something pressing down on her, as if someone's will, filled with malice and power, is influencing her.

Initially, Parfynora wanted to demonstrate a few fencing techniques (she was trained in a style similar to Romeo's), but feeling this pressure, she felt a terrible fear. "Alarion, protect me," she thought to herself. After holding the weapon in her hands for a short time, purely for appearances, she returned it to Azarine:
-The quality of the weapon is excellent. But I can understand the reluctance to hold it too often. Such an item is better hung on the wall, so that guests of the estate can see it.

Have you already talked to them?

well, he didn't answer about the family history)

Bert was offended, pouted, and left.

Initially, Parphinora wanted to demonstrate a couple of fencing techniques (she was trained in a style similar to Romeo's), but feeling this pressure, she felt terrible fear. "Alarion, save me," she thought to herself. After holding the weapon in her hands for a short time, purely out of politeness, she returned it to Azarina:
-The quality of the weapon is excellent. But I can understand the reluctance to hold it too often. It's better to hang such a thing on the wall, so that the guests of the estate can see it.

— That's also a worthy use," Romeo agreed, "by the way, Azarina?
— Yes?
— Was the Eisenbach family invited to the meeting at the Imperial Palace, which is scheduled for early June?
— I haven't contacted members of my family for the past few days, so I can't answer for sure, as I haven't heard any information about such a meeting.
— I don't know the details, but it seems that the government will have to make an important statement about certain changes that await the empire in the future. Most likely, all significant figures will be invited, including those not from the aristocracy, which is a great disappointment to me. Parphinora, as far as I know, your family should also be invited.

"Really?" Parfinora said, surprised. "I must admit, my family hasn't had the privilege of seeing the Emperor very often in recent years. It must be something very important. Perhaps you have some idea what it might be?"
