So, is he like Erika's future husband or something?
No... They're going to be "just friends." :D The difference from other characters is that he has a chance to successfully "get out of the friend zone" and possibly become Erika's husband in the future, but it depends... I'm not even sure if she'll have enough experience for the corresponding skill, but this is the only chance that she'll ever have a husband...

P.S. For a guaranteed "future husband," I would use the "labyrinth of fate" mechanic...

—It's okay! —the student decided not to take advantage of someone else's kindness.

He decides to dedicate his free time to studying at the university — ideally, he'd like to spend 8 hours, or at least 4.
The lecturer for today's session was a certain Professor Lazerman.
- ... As you probably already know, the basis of buying and selling goods is very simple, but just in case, I'll remind you:
A hypothetical buyer, let's call him A, needs a certain product;
A hypothetical producer, let's call him B, produces this product.
Pricing is a rather complicated thing and includes many individual parameters such as production costs, logistics, and so on, but ultimately it all boils down to the supply and demand ratio, and for our example, it is only important that B has what A needs.
Any business involves certain risks, but there is one trick that helps to avoid them. What is it? It's simple: in this equation, you need to be neither A nor B, but become C. Let's say that the goods produced by B cost 10 rems. You, as C, buy them for 10 and then resell them to A for 15 - or for whatever amount he is willing to pay for the desired product, even if it's 200 - such things happen in the world of trade. What is good about this, besides the fact that you make money almost out of thin air? The fact that if this fragment of the economy is somehow affected, you can switch to other goods without incurring losses related to the non-profitability of production costs.
If we are talking not about goods, but about services, then the system changes slightly. If A needs the services of B, then as C, you should become the employer of B - for example, by renting a space where he will provide these services to A. Thus, B will work for a fixed salary - even if it is minimal, and you will earn all the surplus, which, of course, exceeds the meager amount that you will pay to your employee.

So, any questions?

After saying goodbye, Ushumgall decides not to break his habit of having a good meal after a good workout and heads to "The Edge of Taste".
He gets there without any problems, and this time it really is getting late.

Shivering from the sudden wind that chilled him to the bone, he hobbles somewhere, presumably towards the admin panel, for some reason.
The protector of Faris, whom Genze had to meet, was a woman of not very tall stature; there was no joy on her face at the arrival of the young man.

- Where do we need to stay overnight? And we, the protectors, also sometimes need to sleep.

- I also don't like being disturbed in the middle of the night, but since the transport has arrived, - he said, spreading his hands. - Yes, I would be grateful. And thank you for your work.
He could probably have pondered at length in his mind about how he rates her appearance, or whether he thinks anything about such ears on the head of the Asu'gush protector, or who of them looks better in comparison to the previously seen blue-haired woman, but given his current state, any extra mental activity would be too tiring right now.

Ushumgallu orders elite water and pirozhky. I wonder, what does Akonia have to do with this? Pirozhky-Zimivia-Akonia... If Akonia is the goddess of light, and light is warmth, and it's cold in Zimovia... Nothing makes sense. The only thing left to do is to find out this secret from the waitress.

And then they complain about the king for letting so many people in... If not them, then who will fight the demographic crisis...

It's not Ericka's fault that the local "men" only show "due respect" to the "newcomer beauties," and treat their own women with nothing but vulgarity...

- I wouldn't want to bother you in the middle of the night either, but now that the transport has arrived, - he gestured with his hands. - Yes, I would be grateful. And thank you for your work.
He could probably have spent some time thinking about how he rates her appearance, or whether he thinks anything about such ears on the head of the Asugan protector, or who looks better in comparison to the previously seen blue-haired woman, but judging by his condition, any extra mental activity would be too tiring right now.
- Yes, someone should review the transport schedule.
Genzu was escorted to his temporary quarters where he could sleep and regain his strength, while the protector wrote a letter to the capital regarding the transport.
The next day begins (11:00).

All that remains is to learn this secret from the waitress.
- It's very simple: in an interview with the last Empress of Welfern, Naria es Diesra Arual, it was mentioned that pies are her favorite dish, and she is considered the earthly incarnation of Akonia.

Five stagecoaches travel from Sizok to Faris, but only three return. Where the other two go is a mystery...

-- Awesome. So, in the capital, you can eat not just like a king or an emperor, but like a god...

Upon returning home, Ushumgallu drinks a strength potion instead of a digestif and finally sits down to write in his diary.
Author
Ushumgallu, son of Kingaludda, wrote this, following the example of warriors of old.

Faris.
March.
Day one.
Received a letter from Sir Kira. Let's consider it my ticket to a new life.
In the Hall of Martial Valor, I met three other warrior initiates and got free equipment. It's not the best, but one shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth. Gonor is a decent guy, strong, and by the end of the first week of training, he was winning in friendly duels. Sheila is a funny girl, frail like any woman, but stubborn as a rhinoceros. Mini-skirt, manicure, all that girly stuff, and she's covered in mud up to her neck in every training session. Iliman is a budding guardsman, a loser, a weakling, he annoys me. He dressed like a conservative, and because of that, he won on the first day.
Kira was strict. Like a father, not in the sense of my father, but in general. Strong, stern, but generous. On the first day, we walked around a lot, then we fought. I took second place, which is bad.
Then we went to the Unbending Brothers restaurant. The owners, Am and Im, I don't know if they are unbending or not, and they don't really look like brothers. We ate at Kira's expense. I wish I were rich and could eat like that every day. I fell asleep content.

Day two.
Kira taught us how to hit vital organs, gouge out eyes, and cut arteries. In practice, we were hitting a dummy, but the main thing is that I learned.
On Kira's advice, I went to the administration. I almost mistook Protector Ferrari for someone's concubine. Well, she's an elf, pretty, lying on her villa, grumbling and yawning. Spoiled brat, but she helped me get a guidebook, a gourmet's diary (????), and a good dagger. She told me some things about the situation in the country. I sense unrest.
I was at the Book of Records. Serious warriors used to come here, I was lucky that their records were burned and I didn't have to feel like a nobody. I set a couple of records! Champion Ushumgallu, son of Kingaludda, my name is now on the stone tablets. Or maybe on paper, and it will burn later.
Everything is managed by Esseres Bunpro, a sad old man in a funny costume. It seems that he could once set a few records himself, and now his only joy is when someone comes to beat up dummies and stand on coals. Yeah, old age is a bitch.

Day three.
Kira came home early in the morning for some reason. I didn't think he had insomnia, but maybe he just wanted to cheer us up. He beat us up all day, we persevered. Good.

Day four
It was a strange day. I wouldn't have believed it, but as soon as I left the house, I ran into the Black Knight. Huge, creepy, smells like a corpse, and asks: why are you looking for strength? And then, I swear by the three goddesses, he killed me. I woke up after who knows how long, and I would be happy to consider it all a nightmare, but I'm not used to fainting, and besides... Something has changed. Maybe it's related to my father? Or maybe I was cursed? But I haven't seen him anymore. Kira doesn't know anything about him.
During the day, we hunted a lion with three others. It was a beautiful beast, and now I have a beautiful cloak. Lions are trickier than they seem – I got tired of chasing it. And they are also delicious.
After the lion, a strange girl attacked us. One against four. Clearly not in her right mind, she was talking nonsense. Kira says that such girls are common in Margel. She was lucky that Kira subdued her, and it ended with bruises and a beating. I would have treated her in a desert way.

Day five
We fought again. Second place again. It sucks.
Erika, a girl with a mushroom (???), joined us. Strange. I haven't seen her since.

Day six
Kira gave each of us a good sword. It seems that the guy no longer believes that his life has meaning, so he spends his time and money on us. But he's not old. Sad stuff.
Anyway, the sword is good. More of a status symbol than a weapon, but I'm happy. We named it Teut, and the others also have swords with the names of some goddesses.

Day Five
We fought again. Second place again. It's annoying.
A girl named Erica, with a mushroom (???), joined us. She's strange. I didn't see her again.
I should have given her the mushroom as a souvenir...

So, any questions?
—Professor Lazerman! —a student jumped up, raising his hand. —We understand groups "A" and "B," but surely achieving success in group "C" isn't that simple either? For example, you probably won't be the only one to come up with such a clever strategy, which means you'll have to compete with other "C" groups, many of whom have been dominating the market for years, right? And also, you probably won't be able to start a business or switch to another one without initial capital—few manufacturers will agree to cooperate without a long-term wholesale contract, and it's not easy to attract customers either, and so on?

Whatever

If he could answer these questions, he would be making money as a "C" group member, not lecturing about it at the institute...
Where do we go?
