Gulveig wanted to add that she would do anything for that, but decided to hold back on such a strong declaration of affection.
— Go ahead, but just make sure you don't drop any of the pastries along the way; someone will have to clean them up.
New here? I'm Roha — want a quick tour?

Having left Gregor to his non-plebeian pursuits, I head to Norbert to see how the order is coming along.
-- Well, no, I didn't prepare anything, and I didn't help with household chores; I value other people's lives. Well, that's... something to think about. Thank you...
Now came the more difficult part. Gulveig hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and asked her main question.
-- Mr. Eisen... One more thing. Is there any hope that you will tell me what Teacher Vergil is suffering from? Or at least how to alleviate his symptoms, and whether it is possible. Even if these methods are not entirely realistic, since you yourself could not... But...

— That's a doctor's secret, so no, I can't. I'll just say that Virgil should be grateful to your goddess, because in that state, he should have lost his legs. Otherwise... In this case, only "unrealistic" methods will help – intervention of higher powers, alchemy, or magic, that is, something that modern medicine cannot help with.
- Well, it's not that great, I'd better buy an atlas on biology, bye for now.

Silently accepting the item from the master who had silently greeted him, the hunter meticulously and critically examined it – in the light, by touch, tapped it, and tested the strength of the bow. Having finished this inspection, he placed the bow on the counter, turned his gaze to Norbert, stood like that for a few moments, and then nodded. Measuring out a nine-shilling coin, a copper coin, and three quarter-shilling coins, he laid them out in a stack and pushed them towards the seller.
While waiting for him to accept the money, Veserod also took out a harpy feather from his pouch.
- Is this used for anything, do you know? - the first words spoken in the air during their time together in the shop.
- Teasing cats?
-- Hello, Eyre. Congratulations on the update. Calentia, Ryehei, and I are going to the eastern forest for a short time – to find something for Mother Emilia for alchemy. Would you like to join us?
Veserod scratched his head, shrugged, and nodded – well, okay. Although he didn't understand who Norbert had called him, he hoped that the tone wasn't offensive.
— That's a good idea, I couldn't come up with anything suitable myself. But...
-- M?
— Well, I was doing one of the quests today, trying to earn some money for new boots, and I talked to this foreigner. I refused to help him, but it seems like he has some business with the professor's wife, and I'm afraid he might figure out where they live and go through the Eastern Forest himself.
Veserod opened his mouth and trembled with excitement.
Carefully taking out one by one all the harpy feathers, he laid them out in a neat row.
- Fresh.
