I had been running from Medelian for the past five hours.

During that time, I had gotten a feel for the range of her skill, so I’d taken to riding my horse just outside of it. However, because I’d summoned Daitoren to fight the Ramiens, it was going to take time before I could use it again.

Despite the dogged tenacity she showed in pursuing me, her stamina was starting to falter. Whenever I saw her stop her horse and stare hatefully at me, I took the opportunity to rest too.

It’s about time, though.

I moved close to the forest and made sure she could see me dismount. Medelian gradually closed in.

She stopped in front of me, jumped down from her horse, and the first thing out of her mouth was, “I told you to stop, so why didn’t you? Ugh! Ugh! Ugh! You piss me off so muuuuuuch! Aaaaaagh! I’m so mad!”

Her entire body shook as she balled her hands into fists and started swinging with reckless abandon.

“I could’ve practically died of hunger and from overusing my power, but you just kept running! Seriously, what are you trying to do here? Do you want me to kill you?”

“What, so you weren’t coming to kill me?” I asked. “I kept running away because I was pretty sure that was your intent.”

For some reason, my words only angered her more.

“You, you...! Arghhhhhh!” She started trying to tear out her hair.

What does she even want to do...?

“I’ll kill you. You are so dead. You’re already in range too, so running’s not going to save you. I’m not just saying it, I’m gonna murder you for real now.”

Man, she’s pissed.

“You’re gonna murder me ‘for real’? Don’t tell me you had something else in mind when you chased after me...”

That got her shouting again. “Aaaahhh! Shut up! Shut up!” Swegg and Rollins simultaneously flew up into the air.

Suddenly, I had an idea. I tossed a waterskin at Medelian.

She caught it reflexively. “What’s this supposed to be?”

“Water. Have a drink and calm down. You’ve gotta be exhausted, right? Don’t worry, it’s not poisoned.”

Not that I’d know, but she’s gotta be pretty parched.

“It wouldn’t matter even if it was. My mana would beat your lousy poison. Hmph!”

Having said this, she immediately opened the lid and tried to take a drink.

But no water came out.

Not even a drop.

She shook the waterskin over and over, but it was dry.

“Youuuuuu!!!”

“Whoa, whoa, hold up! It was a simple mistake! I didn’t mean to do it, honest.”

I’d apparently given her the waterskin that I’d just finished drinking myself. No wonder it had felt so light. I hurriedly found the right one and tossed it to her.

Medelian accepted the new waterskin with silent fury. There was a slight sloshing sound when she shook it, so she trusted that this one did indeed have water inside. But her pride seemed to get in the way. She looked back and forth between me and the waterskin.

Thirst won out in the end.

She emptied the waterskin with big gulps, only moving her lips away once it was drained to the last drop.
