Chapter 81 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 81

Following the takeover of the merchant guild, Leona accepts the transition of power, leaving Pollid in despair. Mathis, the guild's best warrior, prevents the distraught Pollid from approaching Leona, and the guards eventually drag him away. Leona approaches Encrid, questioning him about giving Carmen's stiletto to his subordinate, Jaxon. Through a series of observations, Leona realizes that Encrid's true desire is not material wealth or status, but personal growth and strength. She offers him the opportunity to train under Mathis, but Encrid declines, as his squad members are already exceptionally skilled. Leona, intrigued by his character, suggests they become friends and spend a day together. Encrid accepts, and with the Company Commander granting him a one-day leave as a reward, he spends the day exploring the city and dining with Leona. They share a pleasant, non-physical time together, establishing a friendship. Meanwhile, the conspirators—a plain-looking man and a swordsman—depart the city, having gained valuable information about Leona's competence. The next morning, Encrid returns to his squad. After a lighthearted exchange with Rem, Encrid engages in a sparring session. During the fight, he realizes that his time spent relaxing and conversing with Leona has provided him with a new, intuitive understanding of his swordsmanship and the concept of speed.
