Let them just try...

[DATA EXPUNGED]

Guion woke up with a groan. He had almost forgotten the events of that terrible night, but his tormented mind decided that now would be an excellent time to remind him of everything in detail. It was as if he could feel again that cold, that pain, the metal collar digging into his neck, and the grasping hands of the bandits who twisted him around like a doll. As if his present suffering weren't enough...
The young man tried to sit up, but all he managed was to crawl a few centimeters up the pillow, and it felt like his insides were seared by molten lava from that small effort. He sank back onto the pillow and tried to catch his breath, but quickly had to temper his efforts — every even slightly deep inhale still caused terrible pain. He wanted to cry from the pain and his own helplessness.
Somehow pulling the blanket higher (the chills were still wracking him), Guion squinted, trying to make out the shapes of objects. It seemed lighter now, but the murky blur before his eyes stubbornly remained a set of spots, refusing to take on any recognizable forms. Perhaps this was better than total blindness, but hardly much so.
 - Useless, - Guion exhaled through clenched teeth, closing his eyes again.

Unlike his new companions, Amamius Okikot kept the diary he bought in Tentacle not with him, but in a safe. There, along with all the other junk that might have some value to him but was not useful in his work. For example, a pocket portrait of Rinze – he was not her follower or even a fan, but the mercenary found the girl depicted in the portrait attractive enough to please his aesthetic sensibilities later. And then there were the earrings with red crystals – a cute accessory that surely had a rich history. He himself was not going to wear them, at least not because they were not made of amethyst or any other stone of a similar color, but it was still better for such beauty to be with him than to gather dust in the window of a suspicious shop. Or the boots, which had long become his personal relic, although they were absolutely useless to him. Based on these reasons, while waiting for the appointed departure time, he adds another entry.

The Code of Amamius Okikot

Article one – do no harm if:
a) the job does not require it.
b) self-defense does not require it.
c) My dignity has not been affected.

Article two – do not drink alcohol or do anything else that weakens the functionality of My mind or body and puts Me in a vulnerable position before others.

Article three – do not depend on anyone, always be self-sufficient.

Article four – always charge money for your work.

Article five – do not get close to women; if time = money, then they take away both, that is, minus money squared.

Article six – always look presentable.

Article seven – always pay debts: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a gem for a gem.

Article eight – do not trust anyone.

Article nine – always use your time effectively.

After thinking for a moment, the mercenary decides that this is enough and puts the diary away in his small treasure chest. Only he knew whether he intended to follow these rules or whether he wrote them out of idleness and an overly rich imagination.

Point five: avoid getting close to women; if time equals money, then they take away both, which means a loss of money squared.

He just hasn't heard Beata's concept of YYY yet.

Is there not going to be a third installment?! :(

Is there not going to be a third one?!

Anything, I'm always ready. 🙂

Offer him money.

I'll lure him with Guiyon, and Beata will join in the process.

Amamius on Koshi’s flanking maneuver: the name of his second spell.

Amamius on Koshi's pickup lines: the name of his second spell.

- Well, since you're suggesting it... Let's do it there, - Beata readily agreed, taking off her pants.

Amamius heals Garret from severe burns. However, his magic looked counterintuitive – the novice struck the affected areas of Garret with magically charged fists. There was little pleasant in all of this, but the effect spoke for itself – the rogue looked as if he had never been burned at all.

Garret examined his healthy skin, which showed no signs of burns, with interest.
— Well, I'll be. This is one of those cases where a healing beating is actually healing, and so effective that it heals injuries that the local hospital couldn't handle. I have to say, I'm impressed. This one was a success, thank you.
"It turns out you can simultaneously give someone a beating in both the literal and figurative sense, who knew."

Maybe I should also add a cold elemental, so that Garret, under mind control, is less of a threat to Erephir, and yet...

Can military armor be enchanted in the Upgrade to restore health, or is it specifically armor that is needed?

Sure.

With these words, he left, leaving the two thugs with their new toy...

And after that, they still say that I have a grimdark style...

Maybe they played with them like they were Barbies. They tied a ribbon on their head, dressed them in a pink dress, and went to the store... Although, no, it's better to stick to what was originally intended.
