Part Three

"No, Arin, like this." Jantu stepped forward and adjusted Arin's hands around the hilt of the wooden short sword. "Since you're right-handed, your right hand needs to be higher than your left on the hilt."

"R-Right, I'm sorry," Arin said.

Daunte was leaning on the rail surrounding the arena, watching Jantu give Arin his lesson. It seemed surreal that it wasn't long ago that Arin was bed-ridden and on the verge of death. Now his little brother was up and about and participating in physical activity.

It's because we came here that he was able to get better. I'm thankful to the Liberation Army...for this, at least.

It'd been four days since he'd been suspended for disobeying Bearyl's orders and going to Agameru. He was relieved at least that this new round of suspension didn't involve orders for him to be confined to his room. Or at least if there were, then nobody was enforcing it. But it still bothered Daunte that he kept getting suspended at all, especially since he was being suspended for helping people.

I just don't understand Bearyl Lutis. He leads an army called the Liberation Army, and yet he doesn't seem to be doing any actual liberating. Well he did liberate Zinnia, but that town didn't seem to want to be liberated anyways. I don't believe anything I've done has been harmful for the Army, yet I keep getting punished!
