— Perhaps you are right. I hope that because of our little excursion, you didn't see something you shouldn't have, and your opinion of this person doesn't change for the worse, otherwise it would be awkward... Okay, there's not much left, one house in this part of the city and two more in two other areas.
This time, they stop in front of Alessia's house.
- I just saw a new face and decided to say hello! Maybe I can offer some advice, or maybe I'll just wish you a good day! It's common practice here, although I see that you may not be used to it. After all, a small town has its own peculiarities that not everyone immediately understands! However... - Veserod shook his head sympathetically and dramatically - but genuinely - wiped away a tear. - I still have to apologize to you again... After you shared your name, I realized that my behavior in this situation was completely inappropriate... 😢 You see, in a small town, news spreads quickly, and it so happened that today I heard not only that you are blessing the town with your presence, but also about your situation... First of all, my deepest condolences, - Veserod bowed his head, suppressing a convulsive urge to feel nauseous. - You are the strongest - in the elegant sense - woman I have ever had the honor to know... Bravely resisting the will of society, which imposes a burden on your heart... While this metaphorical tyrant-leviathan, which manifests from time to time in each of us, insidiously takes on the guise of a respected father in the hope of obedience... I must confess honestly - I would not have had the strength for this.
- This... I'm glad you were able to see the nobility of the soul that pleases you with its mere presence! Hmm, perhaps this city is not as bad as I initially thought, since it is home to such worthy people.

- No, it's okay. This is Alessia's house; she spends most of her time working for Lady Cecilia. Well, you probably know her. They are, um, in some sense, similar in character and talent, which is probably why they have worked so well together in recent years.
They walk to the eastern part of the city and stop at the house of Eyr.
Will Ilva go to Almandine?
— Uh-huh, of course, I know, although I haven't had the pleasure of acquiring any of her creations. Hmm, so, Cecilia von Mariendorf's protégé lives here... That's something to keep in mind.
They head to the eastern part of the city and stop at the house of Air.
—Air von Wal...far... lives here. There's some sad story that happened between her biological father and the baron, and now she and Lord Gungnir are in "somewhat" strained relations, although I don't think it's mutual. At first, I thought that Air was only interested in weapon training and wasn't interested in anything else or communicating with anyone; but, as it turns out, our recent travels have affected her and allowed her, so to speak, to reveal herself as a person with many different talents. Which is probably good for her mental health...

- Queen: for someone with a persuasion skill focused on resources/additional units/some skills (which, as I understand it, won't be lost) and provided it fits the role-playing aspect, the book allows you to acquire something great without losing anything. An excellent pick. The problem is that few people will want to change their persuasion skill for role-playing reasons; moreover, the Queen has recently acquired a serious competitor in this regard in the form of a warship with torpedoes. And for the Arteryans, the book turned out to be completely useless, which I, frankly, did not expect.
- Vita: money wins, you can't go wrong with this. Unless you happen to be some kind of ascetic, but we don't have any of those.
- Sachiko: an effect that will trigger once every five battles, but by the time it does, you'll already be killed in the previous four. And if it does trigger successfully, you'll be immediately finished off with your single hit point. I was already thinking that maybe there's at least some use for it in combination with specialists like the Gladiator (chance to preserve the Gladiator's charge), but no, the Gladiator triggers first, so it's a miss again. Useless, in short.
Invincible? Sounds a little optimistic, maybe.
- Rika: a rare example of a book that is useless for non-Arteryans. For Arteryans, it is quite good, on par with its direct competitor, Liutgard, but not better. Mainly because it doesn't work against mindless enemies.
- Chanchan: good for tanks to improve metal absorption, and for fragile characters to give them a few extra hit points. It seems that both effects are defensive, but their target audience is completely different, which makes it difficult to call the effect top-tier. A durable character in heavy armor won't benefit much from +7 absorption against most enemies, and +25 hit points are meaningless, while fragile characters are useless with absorption.
- Kayano Sayaka: the very situational +25% resistance to wood shouldn't even be considered an effect. Vampirism is good for monsters with high DPS, like Ren and Air, and it will also give Ryohei additional opportunities to restore health. However, the less damage a character deals, the weaker the effect. Often, regeneration would be better if you're choosing.
- Gisela: simply the best universal effect. In essence, Gisela increases by a certain percentage the already strongest stat in the game.
- Felicia: a strong and useful effect for any Artaryan. Non-Arteryans, however, usually have little faith and ways to increase that faith, but if you're "lucky" with this stat, then here's a way to use it.
- Lobelia: useless if you don't have an instance of water damage. However, for Ilva, it has become a powerful pick, even stronger than Gisela, considering her water magic and water damage on her sword.
- Akate: she is stronger than all those I called "useless," but weaker than all those with real effects. No matter how you look at it, in most cases, you want to cling to your current life rather than plan for the next one. Although this may be the wrong strategy, who knows...
- Limma: top-tier for musicians, moderately useful for merchants, craftsmen, and leaders; for everyone else, it's just a chance for one single useful stat, coupled with the potential to annoy fewer nobles by lacking etiquette (but it's usually better not to deal with those for whom this is important).
- Liutgard: after Gisela and, probably, Vita, the best universal Valkyrie. For Arteryans, she is on par with Rika, lower than Felicia, and still top-tier.
Ryohei: ★★★

Ah... No, presenting the gift to the OS didn't require it. I must have miscalculated. Well, then one is free.
Anders finds the house owner in the river... Alive, it seems he just decided to go for a swim.
Where do we end up when we save the world?
—This is Veserod's dwelling; his baron appointed him as the head during our trips. He hails from northern Serberia, and his character reflects the traits that the inhabitants of this region are often portrayed with in books. He is an excellent hunter, feeling at home in the forest and in nature in general, but he doesn't particularly like big cities. He is a man with a lot of life experience, and his leadership has helped us out of trouble more than once. Perhaps, to a stranger, he might seem gloomy and taciturn, but his heart and soul are in the right place, as they say.
Ilva receives a favor from Erika, which can be used in the future, and gains +2 friendship points with Claudia.
Gullveig decided to visit the "Chronicles" editorial office.

-Good day! - Anders waved to Victor - do you mind if I join you?

— Oh, Gulveig... — Philip wasn't happy to see her. — What are you doing here?
Wow, I thought you couldn't get more than one per phase.
— Our glorious baron hasn't sold me this river yet,” he replied to him with a touch of playfulness in his voice, “so you don’t need to ask for my permission just yet!
-It’s still cool,” he commented, “it’s May after all. But how pleasant it is to take a dip! - After swimming and diving for a while, he found himself not far from Victor - I wanted to ask you something, Victor. Recently, I saw an elf - Mr. Sigizia - and Calentia visiting the baron. The baron got very angry with the elf and didn’t want to talk to him, and then he called him a snake - not to the elf’s face, though. And when I asked him why he reacted that way, he said it would be better to ask you. So I decided to ask.
