"It's really too bad we can't watch the second trial." Efa sighed. "Waiting like this makes me anxious."
Elaine couldn't agree more. She also found it hard to sit still, knowing that Alex was participating in the second trial after barely recovering from his injuries.
She could still remember how the young man had tried to dissuade them from going to Briarwood Village in order to repay their debt to him.
Only after the incident transpired did she realize why the young man had told them they could only come after they became Rank 3 in their respective professions.
'If I had gone there as a Rank 2 Swordsman, I'd probably be dead by now,' Elaine thought. 'Good thing we listened to Alex.'
For her, Alex was an enigma.
He had arrived at the Town of Thaloria with Dim Dim and claimed he came from a very faraway place.
Back then, he was just starting out as an adventurer, and yet, he came to save him despite him being the weakest of them all.
