Chapter 20

　　“It’s nearly time, isn’t it?” Agamori narrowed his eyes at the men training before them, then glanced at Daniel. When only a gentle shrug from one of Daniel’s shoulders came as a response, the old witch threw up his hands and wrinkled his nose. “You know the moon is full tonight, don’t you?”

　　Daniel rolled his eyes at the question before he blinked at Agamori, and his shoulders dropped with a sigh. “What does that have to do with anything?”

　　The vastly more experienced man twisted his lips and shook his head with his typical disapproving expression. “It’s as if you’ve learned nothing at all since you’ve come, Daniel. You are a warrior, without a doubt, but you know so little about the religion. When we take the castle, you need to spend more time learning the old texts. It’s a tragedy, really.”

　　“Tragedy?” Daniel chuckled to himself. “I’m a fighter; that’s what I need to learn now. I can’t read the language in the old books, anyway. They’re worthless to me.”
