"Akane are you sure about this?" Sister Agnes asked the young teen.
"I'm sure. I've been gifted a grimoire everyone thought was lost, so why not put it to good use." Akane explained while strapping on her grimoire holder.
"But, a Magic Knight, that's extremely dangerous!" Sister Agnes tried to reason with her.
But Akane's mind was already set and no one was going to change it.
Sighing the young girl turned to Sister Agnes; "Living in a world like this one is already dangerous, the least I could do to be safe is learn how to protect myself and others."
Sister Agnes exhaled harshly and pulled the girl into a tight embrace. "I just... don't know what I would do if anything happened to you..." The older woman explained.
Akane pulled back from the hug, eyes soft to the woman; who was the closest thing to a mother, "You worry too much, old lady."
An irked mark appeared on Sister Agnes's head, "I'M NOT OLD! I'M ONLY THIRTY! I'M STILL IN MY PRIME!"
Akane laughed and ran away now that Sister Agnes had found a broom to wack her with.

"Do you have to go?"
"Yes, Ary."
"Are you gonna come back?" The small girl sniffed.
Akane crouched in front of Ary and placed a hand on her shoulder, " Of course, I'm going to come back. This place is my home and my favorite sister will be here."
Ary stopped crying and looked up at Akane with disbelief.
"I-I'm your favorite sister?" Ary stuttered.
"That's what I said right?" Akane teased.
Ary nodded with more tears filling her eyes.
Akane sighed and patted Ary on her head, "Stop crying. I promise I will come back and if I make enough money I can buy you some gifts. How does that sound?"
Ary's eyes brightened and threw her small arms around the older girl, "How many toys can I get!?"
"You're not gonna get anything if you don't let her go Ary." Sister Agnes told her while pulling her off.
Akane stood up to face the Nun and everyone else.
"Well, seems like I should get going huh?" The teen said.
"Seems like you should." Sister Agnes replied sadly.
Akane showed them a small smile and turned towards the dirt trail. "I'll see you guys soon!" She called over her shoulder and began to leave the village.
"Bye Akane!"
"Good luck!"
"Make a lot of money ok!"
"Makes some friends please!"
"You better visit us!"
Akane smiled as she heard their loud shouts become soft, "I promise."

A/n: I'm very sorry to whoever reads this book. I've been neglecting my books and haven't been getting new ideas recently. I thought that since the school was over that I'll be able to write more, but I was wrong. Summer 2019 is a lot busier]ier than I imagined it would be, I have been taking classes to lose weight and have been looking for a job :), not to mention I've been making random things and have revived an old idea from 2017-2018. Anyways, enough of my excuses I do hope you enjoy this chapter even though it is short.
If you want to please vote and share ;)
Have a lovely day!
