It appeared that Malakaus wished to join up with Maria and the rest of the gang. That was fine. Maria was willing to give more out. After all, she did honestly believe it was more interesting to have fun with more people, and one more was.

She was actually glad that Malakaus had chose to join the group. After all, Maria did respect the indivudal as a knight, and being a rather rare individual within the capital. Like the elusive giants, Orcs were a race of demihuman that were rare to see “civilized”.

Leading the group back to her room, there was a section that appeared to be a hard-wood table that after a moment of shifting the two seats, Maria was able to provide the others with a suitable sitting area.

Of course, her room was still the heavily decorated with various books, both fictional and nonfictional, various paintings, and stained glass depicting something likely of value to the Iron Bell Knights.

“If you can understand speech, then I would assume that it wouldn’t take long for you to understand how to read and write. Though I might not be the best teacher when it comes to this subject, or any subject for that matter, I will say that I am well versed on the subject matter and hope to be able to pass my knowledge on smoothly. If there is an issue, I am sure I could consult an educator on the subject..”

A simple response to Cheiko’s inquiry. Straight to the point, as Maria tends to prefer to most regards. Maria’s straightforward methodism tend to go over well in regards to general understanding of her personality. There was hardly any sort of finesse when it came to her display of actions. She simply acted as she believed she should act at a given situation.

“And though I must say that your Fruit Loops were rather great, Ryan. I did not know that there were such a tasty treat in such an unusual shape. I do have other simple cookies I had gotten in town earlier if you’d like those as well,” Maria stated, genuinely impressed by Ryan’s “fruit loops” were. Perhaps the superficial sugar did sync well with Maria, as she was someone who enjoyed a lot of sweet products like cakes and tea and cookies.

Malakaus had something to discuss earlier, so Maria hoped to be able to discuss that with him during this time. At the very least, she hoped that the others being here did not disrupt his current position on the matter. After all, there was some information that definitely doesn’t allow those outside a certain circle to know.

The tea didn’t take too long to brew and Maria presented her 4 guests, Cheiko, Ryan, Malakaus, and Tani with their own matching porcelain cups. At the very least, anything that Maria had seemed to be of high quality. Her father had given her a lot of her room’s current decoration and furniture out of his own pocket. After all, the Hohenzollerns were rich, affluent nobles at their core with favor within many realms of politics.

“As for your question earlier Tani, I will say I have heard several people had recently come to this land all at the same time. Though I am not sure what is occurring, I can presume that there must be someone or something dragging these people into this city, and that does worry me.”

Some say this was how Maria obtained her position, at least those who opposed her, but Maria was a skilled knight regardless of the opposition.

“Now, I would like to discuss the matter you wished to discuss earlier. It is unfortunate that your aide could not make it. It would have gladly given her a sit at the table if she wished to join up, but perhaps that would be for another time,” Maria started, shortly after taking a sip of her tea. It definitely tasted better than she expected. Smooth and relaxing, but with a bit of an energetic kick. It was an oddly soothing mix of feeling. Definitely worth the purchase in Maria’s opinion.

“Though I do not know what you wished to talk about, I am sure there could be a discussion on the matter. Though if you wish not to speak your mind on the matter, I will not force you. I merely figured it would be best to speak on this matter in conjunction with the tea.”

My username is a rather random one to tag. Considering my name is often misspelled or people neglect to tag me XD
To be fair, my username is misspelled to begin with so it's my fault XD
Also you got IC post 200


I see What happened. Meant to tag in Lucas, but I probably misinterpreted it in my head and just thought a name that started with "Lu-" and got what we saw there lol.
@ADamnFiddle
Why was I tagged?
@Caits

Huh.

It appeared the artist had disappeared. Probably took Maria’s suggestion about potential actions towards bettering herself. At least she appeared to have left the image for potential mass production and moving information of the thief through the various townships.

That took care of a single problem. With an image of the individual gained through simple observation, Maria could take the appropriate measures to apprehend the suspect. Perhaps this would lead to some interesting instances?

Perhaps not, but Maria did find it outrageous in the actions and audacity of this man’s approach. As commander of the Iron Bell, she had a responsibility to the established nature of the Knight Order, and Maria was not the sort to ever back down from a challenge. Perhaps the type to diplomatically solve issues, sure, but provocation was something that Maria considered important to match, even if at times it wasn’t in her best interests.

“Since we have an image of the suspect, I suppose we could use it to find him. Perhaps not today, or perhaps not tomorrow, but I doubt there to be many people on this city with such a goofy face

For whatever reason, Maria disliked this man’s face. Perhaps because it seemed to convey a degree of frivolousness that someone born into a proper household like Maria couldn’t stand. Despite her rather kind outlook towards others, there were certain traits that Marai despised, and thievery was definitely one of them. One must work to earn their bread, not take it from those who earn.

Either way, Maria was now in charge of two more people. Perhaps three if she included the offer she had made previously to Grian in the event he had not heard her. He was still in the area or something. Probably.

But the two she was in charge of, Chieko and Ryan, had given her privy to a bit of information. She had not interrupted Sir Malakaus statements to her [potential] recruits. Maria did not wish to disrupt his statements, as despite his appearance not being perhaps the most aesthetically pleasing with regards to what Maria thought to be the ideal knight, Maria did know that he was a dependable knight.

Her father had taught Maria that appearances might matter to an extent, but never to judge solely based on the appearances of another. Perhaps he was right in some regards. He was a hero during a time of instability, and his actions may have caused issue with regards to certain groups.

“Come back any time Malakaus. You know that to the Iron Bell you are not a stranger. I’d love to know of your travels. Though I’ve read a lot in books, I’ve always wanted to travel myself.”

Maria made sure to see the knight off before he had left the station. He had his own fight to continue on, as Maria knew. But to ask the Knights of the Capital for assistance, perhaps there was a bit more going on than Maria realized. She knew something was up for such a face to return, but it was not like she believed anything could be so bad with Knights like Malakaus on the field.

Maria unsheathed her sword for the first time since meeting the two, Ryan and Cheiko, holding the sword by the handle with her dominate hand, and with her other hand placing it on the blade as if caressing a dainty flower.

“From this day forward,” Maria told both Ryan and Cheiko “I shall instruct the two of you on how to wield the blade. But know the blade is something that isn’t something to wield for yourself. The blade is something used to protect the people, not to point towards others as a weapon.”

Through not interrupting the conversation between Malakaus and the two recruits, Maria had learned of something that would have to be rectified if the two wisehd to become proper knights.

Simply put, the ability to read and write.

Perhaps not above her pride in her family as master swordsmen, Maria considered the ability to read to be vital in regards to knighthood. After all, knights were expected to be educated about the knowledge of the world, and to be a shining example to the public. Swordsmanship did come first to Maria, but reading was a close second. There was a reason Maria kept

“There are many other things you needed to learn. The path of the scholar is not contradictory to the path of a knight .Art, literature and history are all important for those wishing to become knights. I may have knowledge on the sword and these subjects, I am afraid to admit my shortcomings in regards to other weapons or any sort of magicks aside from rudimentary information. If you wish to take discipline in these fields, I am not sure if I will be able to completely assist, though I do know a few individuals who might be a bit more skilled in these departments, so if you wish to learn about these I would have to call in specialists.”

Honesty was probably best for Maria in the current situation. She did not wish to teach anyone something that wasn’t exactly correct. After all, she understood her strengths and weaknesses better than almost anyone else. Likely better than anyone else. Her strength was the sword, and the book. Order and law of the same calibre.

“That being said, where we start is up to you. I considered starting with the regiment tomorrow, as I feel today might have been a bit of a shock for you two. However, if you are eager to learn more,then I shall give it my all starting today. Know that rest is as important to learning than the actual training itself.”

Maria knew that to make these individuals into proper knights she could be proud of might take a bit longer than usual, but at the very least she believed that those with a passion for justice as herself would make the best knights.

Maria realized that Tani was currently in the building as well with her. The knight of passion Maria had hardly seen before. Someone who was given a chance to join with the knights through pure chance, but through her complete determination to prove herself none-the-less.

Someone Maria knew as a reliable person. Along with Malakaus one of the knights she trust ed to always complete their tasks, whether crucial or mundane alike with a degree of fervor one would expect a knight to act like.

“Sorry for wasting your time, Lady Tani. It appears you came a bit late to catch the thief, but I humbly thank you for your concern. Perhaps if you are a bit tired from your tasks, I have tea I had imported from Kararagi if that interests you. That invitation does go to any here that wishes to join me. After all, luxuries are more luxurious if you have people to share them with. I’d have invited Malakaus as well if he had not needed to leave, and I would understand if you are busy as well, Lady Tani.”

I'm gonna be in the "Corner of Hopefully Not Terrible Writing" while I wait for judgement.


I mean from a quick perusal of the app, I see a few issues. The first was the dragon roaming the land and terrorizing people, but I see that was scrapped and replaced by a Demon Beast. Dragons aren't like the standard fantasy dragons. Most of them are just replacements for horses. Some are revered as gods because of their power to seal great evil. Though Re;Zero is a fantasy light novel series, it isn't akin to something like D&D, despite obvious western influences.

The next issue would be the use of fire magic on "mixed gases". This is a fantasy world. I do not believe natural gases are pumped through any sort of pipes like current day. Would be kinda odd. There is probably running water, but that's been in existence since the Romans, Egyptians, Chinese and Indians and before medieval times, but running gases would not have any purpose.

The last part that I take problem with is that the way that RBD works in this roleplay, you would not be able to fight the same Demon Beast with the same party every single time since only you reset, not the party you are with. I mean if you wanna keep that part, just know that it would of had to have been with a different grou; of adventurers each time. And dying constantly like that will have your character start with a few tokens of insanity, so sleeping out in the forest might just make your life the most dangerous there ever was. To read more about insanity, see this: roleplayerguild.com/posts/3895731 idk if the GM added it to the title page yet, but here it is.
