Vince and I were seated at the small table on the outside patio discussing business plans for the Helstea Auction House. The topic had shifted toward security parameters; we were approaching the stage where it would be necessary to completely restructure and enhance the guard teams.  \nIn addition to capable non-mage adventurers, we had recently managed to recruit a few long-range augmenters, an extremely powerful addition to the security. While it was still widely prevalent for augmenters to go the melee route due to functionality and ease, ranged augmenters, like archers and crossbowmen, continued to be a much more powerful asset in defensive settings. Vince was challenging me on whether we should employ conjurers for the upcoming event.  \n“Hmmm…I know how beneficial it’d be to have conjurers who could set up barriers and help support the augmenters, but I’m against it.” I took another, more careful sip from my cup.  \n“You mind elaborating? You just said it’d be helpful to have them,” he said as he rhythmically stirred his tea.  \nSetting down my cup, I replied,“If we’re just talking about firepower, I’d beall for it, but you know it’s not as simple as that, Vince. It would affect team  \nmorale having even a few conjurers on a team of augmenters. You yourself know how snobby conjurers can get. I swear, they think they’re angels incarnate; most of them think of augmenters are some sort of primitive beasts because they use their hands to fight. Even if we did manage to find a few who weren’t so rotten, the team might think we’re hiring conjurers because I don’t trust them.”  \nVince gazed blankly at a smudge on the stained table; it was hard to tell what he was thinking.“You have a point. I put you completely in charge of the security aspects, so we’ll go with what you say, but we need to be absolutely certain the Tenth Anniversary Helstea Auction goes well. Even the royal family will be there this time. We can’t let any commotions get too big.”I nodded in agreement, giving my friend an appreciative smile.  \n“We need to take your son with us to the auction. He mentioned he wanted asword, right? I didn’t know you’d taught him how to use a sword. I expected the boy to take after you, with that infighting style you’re so good at with your gauntlets.”  \nI sighed.“I never taught him how to use the sword, Vince. He’s had a grasp of sword fighting since he was four years old.” I could hardly believe the words coming out of my own mouth.  \n“You can’t be serious! Lilia was still scared to go down the stairs by herself when she was four,” Vince sputtered.  \n“He apparently learned by watching me train and reading books about it,” I continued.“Vince, that’s not even the part I care about, though. It’s when wespar. His gaze when we practice, his reactions and fighting style—I don’t feel like I’m sparring with my eight-year-old son. It feels like I’m fighting some veteran sword master. The only reason I can handle him right now is because his body is still immature, but the way he reacts to my moves—it’s something that only comes with decades of experience in life-or-death fighting.”  \n“Mmm. I can’t say I don’t know what you’re talking about. I sometimes find  \nit hard to believe your son is actually only eight. Are you scared of him, Rey?” he asked seriously.  \n“No. That’s one thing I’ve become more and more sure of. No matter what, he’s still my son","cbCait1nnwvmvE1m","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCait1nnwvmvE1m","pdf",1378276,7,210,"English","en",105,"# Contents\n## Royalty\n## Auction\n## Aftermath\n## Partners in Crime\n## Worth Fighting For\n## Examination\n## Changes in Dicathen\n## Sword and Body\n## Last Leg\n## Dire Tombs\n## Dire Tombs II\n## Dire Tombs III","[{\"question\":\"What unusual abilities and progress appear in the Leywin family during this period?\",\"answer\":\"Lilia and Reynolds’ sister make progress in mana manipulation and can train independently, though a mana core will take years.
