80 Liquefaction

"Haaa…"

Putting down his basket, Dane let out a long breath sitting down beside his friend to get some rest. Work in the field was both tough and boring, so he usually used his rest to recover both his body and mind.

"Gulp gulp gulp… Hey, did you hear anything about the mysterious Swordsman that visited the village recently?"

After drinking some water to combat the heat, he immediately engaged in his favorite hobby, gossip!

"You bet I did, I even saw him for myself! Almost everything they say about him these days is true."

As Dane's 'partner in crime', Windle was used to gathering rumors so they could discuss them together. He had already heard about that 'guy' a while ago, but he waited till he got the roots of it. Coincidentally, Dane finally brought it up today! It was the best time to show off!

"Oh? Is he really a 16-year-old?"

"Yeah, at least he looks like it. In fact, I heard he is even younger!"
