Day 4,547

Eina’s training is doing well.

I was actually surprised she had accepted; she is usually arrogant and proud of her skills, and I saw it firsthand when we set out for that scouting mission more than a week ago. But it turned out she has some sense to accept her deficiencies. Probably due to her upbringing.

Ortelia. That family is famous for being Giant slayers. Eina is the second daughter, trained to replace her mother in the Empire’s Giant killing unit. No wonder she has the skills.

But her skills need more refinement. Her footwork has improved over the past three days, but she still swings her sword like a club, and she doesn’t use her shield often. At this rate, she has a low chance of surviving in the Untamed Lands.

However, she does have potential. And I will make sure to bring it out before the expedition begins. I have received news that Oldrin and Thaudor are planning to extend our preparation time for another five days, and that is fine with me. I can use those extended time to better train Eina.
