So, theoretically it should work, but I can't seem to get it to work. I'm having a hard time with it."

Taura listened with her arms crossed and her hand on her chin, "I see.

He uncrossed his arms, put his hands on his hips, and began to talk.

Taura points at me with one hand and says, "First of all, though.

"Oh, yeah?"

"I don't know anything about alchemy. I have no idea what you're talking about with all that jargon. At least explain it to me in a more concise manner.

That's true. I'm sorry.

Taura stops me with her hand raised as I try to explain further.

"And that's about all I can say. I am a priest myself. I can give you a little oracle. I will try what Rust has just told me.

Taura then took out a palm-sized book. It seems to be a scripture of the goddess Alaisra.

The Oracle. As I recall, the high priestesses manipulate their own unconscious mind to find significant answers to their questions. I doubt if there really is a God involved, but that's a matter of personal freedom of religion.

Taura's whole body shines faintly with the light of the magic elements that surround her in the posture of praying. From the movement of the magical elements, it seems that the scriptures are not magical tools.

With his eyes closed, Taura's fingers begin to flip through the scriptures.

Then, her fingers stop.

There is a moment of silence.

""

The silence is broken, and something like an oracle is spoken by the mouth of Taura.

As if by a sudden ebb and flow, the magical elements that had been circulating throughout Taura's body disappeared.

I ask Taura, who opens her eyes.

"...... what do you mean? Sorry, I don't know anything about religion. Are you talking about the common knowledge that monsters appear differently during the day and at night?"

"I think Rust is trying to make something that belongs to the night reason with the day reason."

"Well..."

I ponder. Taura's words were a perspective I had never considered at all.

"In other words, the training I'm trying to do is being forced to fail because it violates the reason set by some external entity.

I don't know about that.

"No, you're right. Still, it's a point of view I hadn't considered. Yeah, that's helpful. Thank you, Taura.

Well, that's good to know.

I'm going to give up trying for now.

Taura puts away the scriptures and opens her mouth again.

"So, what are your plans after that? I am the one who is being kept waiting. Ary and Rust convinced me, but I still have a strong desire to fly out and head for King's Landing right away."

Taura points at us again.

"However, if Rust himself is going to King's Landing, I will serve as his escort with all my heart. I will do so in order to repay my debt. You can rest assured of that."

"Thank you? I guess."

Hearing my reply, Taura takes a step closer. With a thud, Taura's outstretched finger brushes against my chest.

"So, do you have an alternative? How long do I have to wait?

Taura whispered to me.

I regretted that I had said something that worried him just because Taura had suggested it.

Don't worry. Don't worry. I have an alternative. I just wanted to take the surer way. But it seems impossible, so I'll stop that one for now. So, if you go with the alternative, we can leave tomorrow."

I tell Taura with a shrug of my shoulders, trying to reassure her.

"I see."

Taura's eyes were mumbled with few words.

It was very impressive.
