[Tips] Spring sees an influx of newbie adventurers. Solo adventurer-hopefuls head to a bigger city where they can make it on their own and go in search of party members or masters to take them under their wing. Not everyone is so lucky to set off from their hometown with close friends or partners.

Mister Fidelio’d told me to get along with my peers. He was completely right; even I knew that some lateral connections would pay out in the long run. Still, I felt that the four of us made an efficient enough group. Plus, I was pretty sure that if we started dragging around a bunch of greenhorns, it’d damage our cred with our prospective clients. I really wanted to limit all this networking to picking up acquaintances.

“Don’t swing with your arms, swing with your torsos. You need that push to cut through properly.”

I didn’t want to be like Miss Laurentius, with her gaggle of followers all hidden comfortably in the shadow of her titanic sword skills.

“Yes, sir!” came a chorus in reply.

Yet here I found myself looking after some young adventurers. Not long after Etan had taken a weird shine to me, the number of starry-eyed newbies clinging to my coattails had jumped to four. It hadn’t even been that long since we moved to the Snowy Silverwolf...

I still didn’t get it; it’s not like I was outfitting them or managing their finances. They had chosen this inn because Mister John had a reputation for mentoring rookies, so why was I standing here teaching them the basics?

This whole situation got ahead of me before I could get a word in edgewise.

After the incident in the yard, I invited Etan to enjoy some of our late lunch. I thought that once he’d gone home and cooled off, he would come to his senses and forget about the whole “master” thing. I was completely wrong. As the days passed, his passion burned as brightly as ever, and on any given day that he wasn’t busy with his own gigs, he’d be waiting in the main room of the Snowy Silverwolf until we came back. He had constantly bugged Mister John, asking when we’d be back, which ended up blowing up in my face. In the master of the house’s words, I could sleep under his roof again as soon as I sorted out my fanboy

Thinking about leveraging my social skill purchases to brute-force him out left me with a little pang of nausea. It turned out he was only twelve, in spite of his truck-like physique—I guessed that was just normal for audhumbla. Anyhow, I figured for my conscience’s sake, I’d take a page from Mister John’s book and show the kid the ropes.

The gist of what Mister John had told me was that if you trained someone in the basics, then it would improve your own fundamentals. He was right, of course, and so I found myself feeling as if Mister John had skill-checked me into saying yes to Etan.
