I look at Harthos who waves to the side and the rocks on the floor shape into a stone table where we sit.
"I would very much like to understand why you brought here." (I)
"I already told you, I was asked, I'm sure you must have noticed so strange things about the weather on the island." (Harthos)
"Like the clouds on fire or the floating river?" (I)
"I'm told you have a high affinity for nature, so you must have realized more than that." (Harthos)
"This island is almost completely taken over by Temples or Cradles for Fairies and Spirits." (Harthos)
"I'm sure those of you who have contracts with these two races understand what I'm talking about." (Harthos)
"Yes, but this..." (I)
I know this very well, I have two Cradles inside the Dungeon whose gates are in my shadow, so I know about how they can distort the space around them to hide in separate spaces.
"Wait! Maybe the space around the island..." (I)
"I know what you're thinking, but you're wrong, it was the world itself as well as the World Tree that distorted the space around the island, an eternal defense layer." (Harthos)
Harthos looks at the ruined temple, I can see that for him or her, I am honestly confused on what to call this person whose gender changes without control, but what I noticed is that Harthos looks at this ruined temple with a twinkle in his eye.
"I was told you were coming, that's why I'm here, my duty is to guarantee your safety until the mont of departure." (Harthos)
"So did they tell you why I'm here?" (I)
"Yes, so I want to talk to you about sothing." (Harthos)
"Master, Loki has entered the ruins." (Orion)
"You can go after her, I feel sothing is not right." (I)
"I am going." (Orion)
After Orion ran off toward the ruined Temple, I looked back at Harthos.
"As I was saying, soone is going to need your help, they wanted to talk to you about it beforehand so you don't get caught off guard later." (Harthos)
"Aren't you going to tell who? Or at least tell what you're asking for?" (I)
"I can't, so things I can't say here, you never know who might be listening." (Harthos)
"..." (I)
It seems that everyone is worried about spies, maybe even sothing else related, but the important thing is that they believe they can't talk about certain subjects here in the city.
Another thing I noticed was the way he told everything, the temple behind represents the history of this place, and the way this place was divided between the Spirits and the Fairies shows that it's not as easy as the hospitals can see, speaking about the spy they are warning while threatening anyone who might be listening.

Pov Diana:
I was at the training ground in the city, I was with my father and many others training during the morning.
I was fighting another Beastman, this one was from the Lion tribe, but his strength was just a little above .
I run towards him, my speed matches his, but he surpasses in strength and defense, but my focus is not on hurting.
I run towards him exchanging blows at high speed without slowing down, but the difference was that I needed to dodge his attacks while he parried my attacks.
During my strikes I left an opening that he took advantage of, when he attacked I held his arm with my entire body as I turned, I kicked his neck from the front with one leg while the other leg kicked the back of his knee.
When he loses his balance falling I'm already on top of him with my claws pointed at his eyes.
"Enough! Great job daughter." (Razor)
"As for you Javier, how many tis I tell you to think before you act, it's not to attack every opening you find, you must think that it could be a trap." (Razor)
"Sorry Razor, with all those quick attacks I didn't have ti to think." (Javier)
"You are very good, but I think I understand the problem, do you only fight monsters?" (I)
"See, everyone can see the truth in the first fight, try to correct this before the next fight." (Razor)
"Thanks for the lovely help, maybe I can buy you a beer" (Javier)
"I'll take the beer, but I'm already taken and even if I wasn't, you're not my type." (I)
"Daughter, you don't need to keep attacking, so blows are just too cruel." (Razor)
When I looked at my father and back to look at my opponent, he was crying, I just acted like I used to back then that I was just an Adventurer, but I think it could be another way.
Before I could apologize he ran off.
"Was it that bad?" (I)
"It was awful, I rember when your mom said that to , and then I kept going after her for weeks." (Razor)
"The fights I had with her were the best" (Razor)
"Dad, shut up." (I)
cough cough
"Well, as I was saying, your fighting style has changed a little, before it was more focused on speed, but it was rough, it lacked delicacy." (Razor)
"Now it looks like you've learned what was missing." (Razor)
"I would like to say that this was the result of my training, but I would be lying, after so many fights over the last few years, I had so much combat experience, I didn't even notice how much I had changed until I fought him." (I)
I look at my Father finally understanding sothing, better put to fight that man because of that, his way of fighting is similar to mine before I t Zenos.
"You have grown my daughter into a magnificent Champion." (Razor)
He suddenly hugs , I can feel how proud he is of , but I also feel his hand shaking, I've never seen his hand shake like I'm feeling right now.
"I'm fine Father, this is the path I chose." (I)
"I know." (Razor)
"Now let's get back to training, your next opponent will be , let's see the limit of your power this ti." (Razor)
"I may not be able to win, but I won't lose as easily as I used to." (I)
