Day 295: A cup of tea (I)

"Is he okay, Major?" Lynn was waiting for a few minutes, but in the end, she couldn't stand it and had to ask Marjorie that question.

"Don't worry, I don't think he will take much longer. He tends to act strangely whenever he discovers something like this." Marjorie turned her gaze to the strange disciple of hers who now had his gaze focused on one of the room's walls.

Blake's eyes were wide open, but anyone could tell that they were unfocused or staring at practically nothing, possibly because he was busy imagining scenarios that only he knew what they were, but as Marjorie had said, that situation wouldn't last much longer.

"Sorry, I think I got a little distracted…" Blake had just come back to reality and the first thing he was aware of was the way Lynn and Marjorie had their attention on him, so he apologized at the same time he scratched his head nervously.

"Hehe, we realized that, may I know how much you were thinking?" Lynn welcomed Blake with that question, so he answered as best he could.

"Well… I was thinking it would be cool to fly through the sky, but I guess it's not that simple." It was true that Blake had gotten lost in his thoughts, but the logical part of him was still working.

"I'm glad you didn't ignore that. I indeed told you that this is a way to go from one continent to another, but the simple act of traveling that distance is a challenge for both your runic energy and the resistance of your body, clearly the runic energy that a Royal runic or a Five-rune wizard or witch with is not enough, so they would have to stop on many occasions to rest, but since they would be in the middle of the ocean, that is also a bit difficult and they would be forced to carry something like a boat to do so." Yes, Blake had already thought about some of those points, but hearing Lynn confirm everything made him feel more confident, although the fact of flying still seemed very attractive.

"It's best if you don't think about it too much, right now you're just a One-rune mage, so you have a long way to go." Marjorie didn't want to ruin the dreams of her disciple, but that would only distract him from his path.

"I know, it's like I want to reach for the sky when I'm just learning to walk… Actually, that seems to be a bit of the case…" Blake's words made Lynn let out her delicate laugh again, and although she didn't show it, Marjorie also smiled a little before calming down again.

"Don't be depressed, Blake. As long as you don't lose your clear goal, you can achieve many things. Tell me, will you continue practicing the path of magic?" Lynn was again trying to interact a little more in-depth with Blake, of course without exaggerating since Marjorie was present, but those were somewhat innocent questions.

"That's what I want, I promised my master that I would become a Six-rune wizard, so I don't want to disappoint her." Lynn still had a small smile on her face, she had heard what Blake had said, maybe she didn't would take those statements very seriously if they came from any other small-town boy, but that wasn't the case right now.

Lynn had already experienced a little of Blake's potential, he was quite talented, and his honesty and determination could also be seen in his words, but especially, knowing who exactly his master was... That statement may not have been a simple dream, so Lynn couldn't help but think something to herself.

'It seems that the future will be something entertaining.' Lynn laughed again, although both Marjorie and Blake did not know the reason for it, but they did not have time to ask since Lynn had taken the floor again. "Sigh... I will be supporting you, Blake. I expect great things from you."

Blake didn't know how to respond when she said that, but at least he thanked Lynn. Marjorie only saw that small interaction, but she did not mention anything else, she knew that Blake was surrounded by many strange things, so, in her opinion, the future was even more uncertain.

"Let's take the aircraft that I mentioned to you as an example and let's get on one of them... So, what is our next destination?" Lynn's question was totally directed at Blake, and he understood what she meant, so after thinking about it for a few seconds, he had a clear answer.

"I think it would be good to take a look at Uruz" That was the continent that Blake had the most knowledge of besides Laguz, he was also curious since Ragna belonged there, so it was perfect.

"Uruz… It has always been a troublesome continent." That comment came unconsciously from Lynn, but she quickly regained her stance and began with what she believed was necessary for Blake to know. "I'm sorry about that, it's just that there are many circumstances surrounding Uruz. First of all, you should know that Uruz is considered the continent where life in Futhark began, it is also like the homeland of both humans and univir."

New data was entering Blake's mind, so his hand was already working on making the notes he needed to study later.

"Uruz is currently divided into three parts, on the one hand, we have the kingdom of Norad, a kingdom completely versed in the use of magic and its development, so it is the perfect home for the royal academy of magic. It is ruled by the current king, Gilbert D. Lawrence, he is a Six-rune wizard and an Earthmate, and for all that, it is not strange that many say that Norad is one of the most powerful territories in the world." Lynn was speaking Seriously enough, even though she had her problems with Uruz, it didn't make her vision narrow, so she could perfectly describe their strengths, although maybe it would have been nice if she hadn't said so many facts so quickly since Blake was still digesting the fact that he felt like he had heard that last name somewhere else...
