Chapitre 111: A Battle of Wits and Mana

Stephano was determined to ride horses to the military training grounds rather than riding a carriage. It would give them more freedom and less fuss.

"When was the last time you rode?" Stephano asked Leonor. "I imagine you kept up with it at the Academy." 

There was a horse available for Leonor to ride, but she wasn't familiar with her. It made her a little bit nervous. Regardless, the horse was brought out for her and she gently stroked the well-trained animal, admiring its soft hair and even temper.

"A month before I moved here," Leonor admitted. "I haven't had the opportunity to ride since then. Although, yes, I suppose I kept up with it at the Academy. They didn't give us much of a choice there."

Stephano climbed onto his horse.

"That place will never change its ways," he said.

Leonor followed suit, putting her riding boots to good use for the first time in such a long time.
