Reconstructing my body from pulp felt kind of strange. I used Division to temporarily become a mass of shadow, then formed myself back into my original shape. The expressions on Lorraine and Augurey’s faces as they watched me return looking none the worse for wear were difficult to read.

“I already knew you weren’t human anymore, but that really puts it into perspective,” Lorraine said.

“That’s a pretty unfair trick,” Augurey added. “Remind me never to pick a fight with you, Rentt. How’s a guy supposed to beat that? At least with giants it feels like you have a chance because you can tell that you’re slowly chipping away at them.”

I thought those were pretty awful things to say.

“It’s not like I can take an infinite amount of punishment,” I said. “Even I’d die at some point. Probably.”

I didn’t have the experience to back that up, but I had seen it happen to others before. It was a sad way to go out, and one I wanted to avoid. If I was going to die, I wanted it to be while I was at peace in bed. Then again, that was probably too much to ask for considering I was an adventurer, so I’d settle for any kind of decent death. Absentmindedly fading out of existence was just too half-baked. Did that even count as dying?

That said, I probably didn’t have the right to be picky since I’d already died once. Maybe it was fine if round two ended up being kind of a throwaway. The only thing was, I couldn’t really remember much about what my first death felt like. I’d have to make sure to commit my second one to memory if it was the last thing I ever did...which it would be.

But that was enough joking around for the time being.

“Now this is a surprise,” I said. “He looks so small now.”

I was looking at the old giant, who was now back to being a skinny old man. He was lying in the hole made by his larger self’s fall, his cloth draped over him. The sight was kind of sad and lonely, actually.

You didn’t really hear of it happening around these parts, but sometimes poverty-stricken villages and such would abandon their elderly in the woods once they’d reached a certain age. I’d come across them several times on trips out to the countryside, and it was always rough to see. I couldn’t just leave them, of course, so I’d always tell them to come with me. Returning to their home villages obviously hadn’t been an option, so I’d helped them find a place where they could earn themselves a living—which hadn’t been too difficult, actually. Turns out all you needed to do was look in the right places.

I doubted the old man lying in front of me needed to worry about that though. You could probably toss him in any old tavern and he’d easily earn his own keep by arm wrestling people and betting on it. A knights’ order or the military would work too, and he’d definitely do fine as an adventurer.
