Posts from ☀️ Arselia and Akonia Auto-translated

Yes, yes, that's not what I meant. I was just planning to ask Alaria for it later, when information appears that Alaria is also a summon from Naria (and before that, split it three ways). But it doesn't really matter to me, let your post be canonical, and I'll come up with a way to explain the inconsistencies.

Expecting to see the master clad in his usual work armor, Garret was a little surprised by the change of appearance, but decided not to ask.
— Yes, this is a good alternative, he agrees. — It's nice to see that the level of service is improving. I would like to upgrade this weapon.
He places the Storm crossbow on the table.
— I think a water elemental rune would be just right here. I myself am from the far south, where sometimes there is a storm without rain! Just thunder and lightning. But I still like the usual association.
"If you think about it, fire would also be appropriate, because a storm is accompanied by lightning that can cause a fire when it strikes... Although the same can be said about a flood, it is more likely a consequence than a phenomenon in itself. It would also be nice to add invulnerability, but that's for another time, I guess."

You can always demand it later, and I'll just delete that part. It's just that the option of "demanding it later" also sounds strange: "Hey, you're also a Zelnaurian! Turns out you were getting free buffs from the painting. Now cough up the money, two weeks after the purchase!".

- Whether it's raining or not, I've always liked thunder and lightning. It's very comfortable to work under them, and just relax too.

It wouldn't be an obligation, but rather in the spirit of "Wow, since we're sisters, wouldn't you like to participate in the purchase? After all, Miss Cosmos isn't just anyone, so we'll all be grateful. Payment is accepted in the form of homemade cookies..."

- It suits you. But I don't think the law has anything to do with it here; people just love emeralds, even I've grown a little fond of it lately, even though I've always been indifferent. Hmm... I see you're not surprised at all, which is probably understandable – Chimera probably already told you. You know... - a strange, unreadable emotion flickered across her face. - But, well, maybe it doesn't matter now. To be honest, it's not really my style, and you don't look like you need it, but... I guess I have to do it for the sake of the genre. Regardless of your personal opinion, you deserve at least this.
Sighing, she looks around to make sure no one is in sight, then approaches the cheerful, lively, and happy "doll," who smiles and plays the hand she's been dealt without complaint. Even though she doesn't exude anything demonic or villainous, she still smells of Remian blood. She hugs her, resting her pointed head on her chest, which is clearly smaller and older, patting her back and stroking the back of her head.
- There, there... - she murmurs softly. - Good Sonata-chan... No one will hurt you anymore.

Klin also decides that for such an occasion, he should replace the half-rotten rags, which attracted more attention than they concealed, with Humbaba's reliable cloak, whose soul, thanks to the efforts of a hellish blacksmith, recently departed to the afterlife.
He also equips the Amulet of the Sky, hoping that if anything happens, a random priest will choke on a prayer of banishment.

—You look great. —he greets the ex-captain at the doorstep. —I'm sorry that you had to choose from our modest wardrobe due to financial constraints, but it turned out great, it suits you very well.
Lowly human desires and doubts became alien to the black warrior, and therefore the very perception of the concept of "beauty" changed in his mind to elevated, deeply philosophical matters, which he would not be able to explain himself, but it was not necessary.

—I don't remember if I told you or not, but thanks to Master Craig, I got rid of the corrosive aura. —Klin invites the ex-captain for a walk, arm in arm. —So, we can no longer worry about the safety of our outfits on this pleasant autumn day.

- That's right, - says Aiyano, releasing the body from her arms and, coughing, adjusts her kimono. - Tears won't help, and having an ideal in your heart allows you to overcome many things. The Kami-sama will watch over him.
"Probably. If they turn their gaze on the Reimi occupier."
Perhaps she would have liked to experience empathetic satisfaction or some other feeling of perversely compassionate nature from the sight of Sonata Reimi crying on her clothes, but the absence of moral trauma was still a good sign - it means that, probably, she should not be expected to have deeply rooted problems in her heart all twenty-four hours a day.
- I see that you have already finished your business in this area, but even if not, missing one extra day will not be a hindrance in the current situation. I am going to meet with Bors-san and I suggest you join me. On the way, we will stop by Kayase-kocho - if she is around, I think she will be interested in seeing you. Who knows, maybe she will join us too? Unless, of course, you haven't met her yet.

Though death and then the stars separated us.

Royal blood.

- I would prefer spiritual wealth over material wealth, and we have plenty of the former.
Overcoming her initial hesitation, the woman accepts her knight's invitation and leans on his arm.
- This is good news, although it's a bit strange. Kragg is supposedly a blacksmith, but he sounds more like an exorcist.

-- Indeed, it is quite a pity that urgent matters prevented our suzerain from witnessing the situation. True, Her Highness Naria's special talents and incomparable insight would be most welcome right now. I hope she is well and not overextending herself at this moment.

-- Your order, Milady, -- bow. -- is most wise and shall be carried out. But first, allow me a few clarifying questions, Your Highness, which are especially pertinent for a foreigner such as myself. Do I understand correctly that the Dragon King is not a candidate for our likely opponent? Do you have any thoughts on who that Lunarian might have been, seen by my comrades? The information received seems equally like a warning from a friend and an attempt to use lies to lead Margel's people either toward panic or toward wrong actions leading us to ruin. A strange place for a warning also plays no small part in determining this: the imperial house did not become the recipient of the news, nor Carneol with its grand task, but a bar in the port; and there are no guarantees that all this was intended for the ears of Gillon and Beata, rather than the ears of a bartender who loves to share rumors with customers...

-- Someone from the squad... Dragons do respect strength, after all; is there anyone in Carneol at all whom the king of the most powerful creatures on Anuzish would not look upon as a worm, while on his own territory and free to do essentially whatever he wishes? We have a mutual defense agreement, but he may not wish to answer our questions, especially with some subtext accusing his subject of treason. In general, it is most likely that I will have to take this upon myself personally, or even send several people, provided this is not perceived as insolence by our allies.

-- Only... The complication is essentially trivial and not worth mentioning in other circumstances, but my intuition tells me that our current study of the path of metal may prove extremely important in the coming conflict, the timing of which we do not even know and which could strike at any moment. I think I will need to ask a favor of you, so that we be permitted to photograph part of the necessary archival material, and thus not cease studying it for more than a day, -- bow.

-- In general, accepting the hypothesis of an inevitable clash with the "Apostle of Hopelessness," it may already be worth discussing what strategies we have or could have against him. We have defined certain directions of work for ourselves, but, of course, it is very, very difficult to provide specifics here... Except that it is obvious that we all need to grow in spirit, otherwise the rest will be meaningless.

Upon hearing the priest’s cry from the heavens, a dragon in human form began to descend, like a falling meteor.

— AKOOOOONIIIIIIIIIIIIII!

— The Dragon King is not our enemy, but he is not necessarily an ally either. I think you three are aware of our war with Nephiria? The dragons of Elysea could be very helpful in resolving this conflict, but given that we are the original aggressor in this war, they have chosen not to interfere. As for the specifics of this... Vision, I cannot make any assumptions at this time due to a lack of more detailed information.

— A contest of strength in this context is meaningless; we are sending a messenger from the royal house, and that alone should be enough to secure an audience.

— The ways of metal?... Ah, you mean the direction of matter in this school of Baldr brought from the south. The journey to Elysea will not take long, and the idea you proposed seems very counterproductive.

— First, we need to determine whether this enemy actually exists and whether its characteristics match what you have heard. Until then, a full-scale preparation is not even being discussed.
