Chapter 3.03 is the 4th chapter of Volume 3, told entirely from Ryoka's POV.
tl;dr[edit | edit source]
Ryoka befriends a Frost Faery named Ivolethe.
Synopsis[edit | edit source]
Ryoka is bothered by a guard dog and the Faeries during a delivery outside the city of Celum. Meanwhile, Erin makes buttered crêpes for breakfast in the Frenzied Hare, causing the inn to burst with people. The two of them make plans to bring Erin back to Liscor and visit Celum's open-air market to shop for magical items. The Frost Faeries show up and spoil all fun however.
Erin and Ryoka are then trying to hire a group of adventurers to escort them back to Liscor, but when some adventurers there badmouth the Horns of Hammerad and the other groups that perished in the Ruins of Liscor, Erin flips out and the two girls get banned from the Guild.
Erin resumes her experiments at Octavia's shop afterwards, while Ryoka goes for the daily mail delivery to Wales. At first, she's bugged again by the Frost Faeries, who mostly lose interest in Ryoka soon, except for one of them who silently follows Ryoka without playing tricks on her. The run is boring otherwise, although Persua runs past the Earth's runner on her new, Skill-based speed.
Back at the Frenzied Hare later, Ryoka tries studying in Teriarch's spellbook, but can't learn any spells. While she can read and understand what the book says, her scientific beliefs reject its teachings. Then, she notices one the lone faerie still lingering around, and invites her into the inn room. The faerie accepts and they smartass each other until Ryoka offers to be a friend to the Faerie, and they shake hands on it.
