“Pretty much but I need a week to get a training session setup here and you should focus on the Prisma meeting rather than focusing on gains. You got how long before that comes up?”
“I think on Monday.”
“Yeeeah, focus on any prep for Prisma and by Tuesday I will be running you through the drills to help with mobility and weight lifting. I need to get Muffin to make some weights for you on your legs and arms so you're constantly working.”
“How long will that take?”
“At least a month before you see any gains or if you got some magic drugs to help speed it up the process sooner but I don’t have any dealers as I went all natural from Everhart’s training.”
“Well better to start the second half of training so lets crack some skulls in after school then so I might as well see what I lack.”
“Sure I can point you to a forest trail to jump two guys that are ignoring my call ins. Should be an easy first trial with those gauntlets and knuckledusters. Also always keep the sleeves on we do not want any information about your weapons leaking out or at the very least build a mask and don’t say a single word.”
“Ords would squeal?”
“Man those idiots would gossip about the most random of shit and it's a reason why I don’t share anything about encoding or fighting as that will give them ideas of power.”
“Are they all incompetent?”
“Yes! Animus and Prisma take the best so all I got are the rejects and spares. Except Muffin and you for sticking with me.”
“Wait, so what is stopping us from going to the junkyard right now for scrap?” Asks William as Muffin pipes up.
“Oh you know the usual things, skipping class, grades, watching the ords, mage patrols, and the Purifiers.”
“The what?”
“Oh right, only me and Virgil know about them. Okay so they are the sanitation guys that pick up trash of ords and mages that don’t have the patience to learn enchantments to build a furnace dumpster. Everyone makes trash and turns out mage trash have magic reagents, failed potions, and defective or weak enchantments. Trash and failures for mages but a gold mine for ords that actually I don’t know what they do with the mage trash as they take it to their buildings or ship it out with garbage trucks.”
“Who would buy that shit?”
“Rich ords, desperate people, a collector. Plenty of people can definitely use weak enchantments against other ords as that could give them a magic edge.”
“So a black market over trash.”
“Hey man don’t insult trash! That is where I got all the mana nodes, amplifiers, and metal for the equipment you are wearing!”
“Did you clean it?”
“Most of it.”
“Ew.”
“Don’t you ew me so back on topic. It is one of the safer areas to hang around where no mage would ever visit.”
“What's so bad about arrogant janitors?”
