-- Hey, I like how consistently you hit those targets! Much better than me... But we both have room to improve, especially when it comes to hitting all targets, and it will be even harder in battle.

-- Master Muscari, thank you for agreeing to open the shooting range for us today!

-- By the way, Eli, I wanted to ask you something. You said you're not interested in people, what did you mean? Because last time, at the shooting range, you were looking at my, um, illustrations with such interest. Do you mean you're not interested in people in general?
"Could it be that her difficult life in the past has left some kind of mark that I didn't notice in this girl before?"

/ If I don't have time to respond, the next point will be about medicine. /

/ There's no need to turn to paganism, Heroist. You come from a good family, why would you need that...?/

— Mmm... I meant what I said. — Eli looked at Mia with incomprehension. — What’s so interesting about watching people train or perform?

-You're right, we should support each other. - Parphinora paused. - I don't want to sound mean, but you know that Yaspe gave her favor not only to Romeo, right? Moreover, I got the impression that she intends to do this with every gentleman in the academy. I'm not a man myself, but I know that not all gentlemen would approve of such behavior. Many of them believe that if a lady spent the night with them, she no longer has the right to do so with anyone else - and that's a perfectly reasonable and natural point of view that I share. Now imagine if all the students in the academy found out about Yaspe's escapades? Imagine how many arguments would arise in an attempt to figure out who she really loves? And how many young hearts would be broken if they found out that the person they like has already shared a bed with someone else? - Parphinora paused again, giving time to mentally answer all these questions - we must support each other. And I supported our group by removing the seed of discord before it could take root - her face saddened again - it's a pity that this turned everyone against me. Well, maybe our class will be united at least by a common dislike for me - she forced out a sad smile.

-- Ah, I see... Well, everyone has different interests, but for me, it's not just a matter of interest – I don't always do what I enjoy. Like Mari Kami's physical training – where would I find the strength for that? I don't feel like I have the energy for such exercises; I've always been weak, and maybe I'll always be. But I would still go to those training sessions, even if they weren't mandatory, because I get more tired from Mari's lessons than from not showing the results that are vital to me.
-- It's the same here. I might be wrong, but I think that just by observing people I consider talented, I can pick up something and learn a few tricks. Even if not – their success stories can serve as a lesson in which direction I should move! Well, that's what I think, anyway...

— Yes, you're right. Relgar was clearly upset when he found out what happened, and he even expressed his disapproval of Romeo, — Imir admitted, — but Shogo, for example, said that she was just a free-spirited girl who brought comfort to those who needed it... And in a way, I agree with him, because she didn't force anyone to, um, befriend her. You know... If we start seeing one of our comrades as a source of discord and try to eliminate them, how can we be sure that something similar won't happen again, but for a different reason? We have different backgrounds, different views, different attitudes towards life... — Imir remembered something. — That is, our group has lost a couple of members, and now it's easier to break... Ha-ha... I don't hate you, P-Parfinora... I just find all this difficult to understand...

For the rest of the week, Reimia dedicated herself to honing her melee combat skills.

/ If I don't manage to reply, the next point will go towards medicine. /

Parfinora lowered her head:
-Yes, you are right. I was too hasty in making my decision. At that moment, it seemed to me that I had no other choice. But now I see that I did have a choice. I could have talked to Yaspis, tried to explain to her that her behavior could cause problems. Instead, I decided to act immediately - and now I have to pay for my haste. I will try to learn from this.

Imir wanted to hug Parfynora and share some of his warmth with her, but he couldn't bring himself to do it, and as a result, the rest of the day passed without any significant events.

Success, a lesson? What's the point? Just do what you enjoy, and that's it!

— You don't need to have talents, you need to develop them. How about a trial lesson? I'll show you different things, and you two will try to repeat them. This should give you a good idea of what our work is like.

That's what makes you special, Ymir. I'm so glad we're in the same class.

/ Yes, confirming medicine. /

A blush spread across Imir's cheeks, and he began to stammer again.
— T-thank you, I'm very glad to hear that, and I really appreciate it. I'm also glad to learn together with you.
