A Boy's Feeling

Shōnen no Omoi (少年の思い)

Climb heads to the inn where Gagaran and Evileye are staying at. He informs the duo Lakyus wants both of them to mobilize for a raid on a brothel housing slaves. They discuss power as they note Climb's training, and mention Lakyus' Kilineiram, which once belonged to the Black Knight of the Thirteen Heroes which is demonic in nature. Gagaran also remembers the moments she walked in on Lakyus debating with the blade, as she was 'fighting' the dark influence to maintain control over it, but was more than strong enough to be responsible with it.

As the conversation goes on, Evileye informs the both of them of the new adamantite adventurer team based over in E-Rantel: warrior Momon and caster Nabe, with The Wise King of the Forest as a pet, leaving Gagaran astounded by their reported feats. Climb wishes to be capable of such strength someday, but Evileye advises him to go his own pace, and not to lose his humanity in pursuit of power.
