Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon Judah Fayol was in a good mood. Truthfully, he was kind of proud of himself. Rod Drick had given him 30 gold parans to award the craftsmen, but those were still in his bag. What he had put on the anvil for the boy was 30 silver coins, which was of the same size as a gold paran but weighed about half as much. The 30 silver coins were worth one and a half gold paran. The rest was his now. He wasn’t afraid of Rod Drick blaming…-

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon The spike of silver light struck the pass between the two dunes like a lightning bolt under the sun, precisely on the route the convoy would’ve taken. Rod Drick’s heart missed a beat. Seeing the silver light, he realized that Gabriel was one of the top warriors on this continent, a great warrior that had at least reached the of the body arts The distance between the first carriage and the col was about 70 paces.

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon Not far behind the rocks stood a group of armed horsemen, ready to launch another attack. They stood beside a troop of horses, some of which were pack horses that carried travel necessities for the desert, but the majority were warhorses. Their owners all died in the bloody encounter not long ago. Morton muttered, “It’s impossible! A woman, alone, eliminated our best men, and Priest Jeremiah! …… My lord, we did not…

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon The Ducians returned to their usual peaceful life after Maria left. Maybe the only change they felt was Amon becoming a qualified miner. But for Amon, the town he saw every day, the familiar streets, houses and the smoky air, became less and less appealing to him. He felt that it all lacked something. There was an indescribable empty space in his heart. It was like something had been taken from him. Amon always recounted the…

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon The square stayed quiet. Crazy’Ole used Aristotle’s argument to conclude, “Our goddess has proved that Amon is approved and blessed. The fact that he has mastered the technique is the manifestation of the oracle.” It was hard to refute, unless someone stood out and said, “The technique can be mastered without being approved and blessed by the goddess.” But who would say that?

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon Was Maria ill? It seemed so, but Gabriel knew what was going on. It was not an illness, but Maria did need to stay a few more days in Duc.

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon The door to Maria’s bedroom was open. Gabriel was standing by the bed. If Amon recalled correctly, Gabriel should have been resting in the room downstairs next to the front door. But he did not see Gabriel when he rushed upstairs. It meant that Gabriel went upstairs right after Maria had screamed, before Amon had even left the space under the stairs. Her speed was astounding. Gabriel had drawn her sword A delicate yet…

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon Amon fell heavily on the ground before he could react. Despite the impact, he was unhurt, due to the rug placed in front of the door. He stood up, moved to one side and replied, “It was me. I was careless and fell over the rug.” “I happened to show the power, but I lost control…” Maria said at the same time. There was a tremor in her voice. What Maria said grabbed Gabriel’s attention. Her gaze…

Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon According to the laws of the state, every family in Duc could keep one parangon of every ten they turned in. However, the laws also said that every registered family must hand in at least one parangon every season as the basic tax. The adults in Duc, both men and women, loved alcohol. This was because mining and smelting were extremely intensive. Alcohol was a wonderful thing that could comfort one’s mind and body.…
