Volume 6[edit | edit source]

(To his apprentices) “You call yourself proper apprentices? I’ve had bowel movements faster than you! Pump those legs! Do you want to be [Mages] or not!?”
(To Erin) “So. You’re the Human who led that Goblin army against the Goblin Lord, are you? Charged into battle with nothing but a flag and dared, dared the Goblin Lord to a fight?”
(To his apprentices) “Gonads, then! The point is if an [Innkeeper] can fight with only her brawn and wits against a Goblin Lord and his army, no true [Mage] should be anything less!”
(To Erin) “I got a lot of stares on Baleros. And I have a number of bids for my body when I die. It’s flattering, I suppose.”
(To Moore) “You could be the finest [Mage] I’ve ever taught. What do you say? Join me, Magus Moore, and by the time we’re through, you could punch a hole in a Wyvern and rip out its heart!”
(To Pisces) “If that’s supposed to impress me, it’s failing. I’ve seen [Necromancers] and you’re far from Az’kerash, Pisces. That may work for Silver-rank threats, but any decent [Mage] will just say ‘[Dispel Magic]’.”
(To Yvlon & Ksmvr) “Passed. I don’t need to do much to either of you. Ten more levels and or the right gear and you’d both give me trouble.”
(To Pisces) “Were you born with that tone of voice, or do you always sound like a sulking child?”
(To Ksmvr) “In your case, I’d stay afraid, Antinium.”
(To Drassi) “Miss Drassi, was it? Whatever the situation is, I will react when called upon by Pallass. Not by an [Innkeeper].”
(To everyone) “We have witnessed an extraordinary event! A feat that few in this world can boast of! The death that comes from Rhir has been slain by a team of adventurers! The Horns of Hammerad!”

(To Terreskil) “You only think you can’t! And your brain is wrong! Give me another squat! Lift with your legs!”
(To Ferkr) “You will prove to the tribes that Gnolls can cast magic! You have what it takes, Ferkr! Don’t you dare doubt yourself after all you’ve done! You have what it takes! Willpower! Strength of character!”
(To himself) “Strange. What am I missing? How could she possibly know all this? Beyond strange. Either her parents were [Martial Artists], or…what?”
(To Chaldion and Saliss) “Hmf. I’d say it’s partly unconscious. But she obfuscates intentionally. Nevertheless, I’ve experienced this before. Not in this fashion, but a quiet, normal evening in this inn is a rare phenomenon.”
(To himself) “Auras. Damn formality Skills. Should I go after Miss Solstice? But there is such a thing as politeness—which is of course, how the Skills work. If I was a savage-minded person with no manners, I’d be practically immune…”
(To himself) “Dead gods. Ancestor’s bones give me strength.”
(To Leon & Troy) “Now. Tell me…everything.”
(To Erin) “—You do not have that authority. Nor are we allies, Miss Solstice. We are not on friendly terms. Why should I risk my life for your cause?”
(To Olesm) “Mana is not an object to a Walled City. You have six hundred lives at your disposal, Strategist. Miss Solstice bought them, somehow. Do not waste them. Or die. The [Assassins] will target officers.”
(To himself) “She unleashed the Black Tide on Invrisil. That damn—”

(To Joseph) “This little Gnoll slipped in past you. Joseph, isn’t it? We clearly need to update the security system, although I’m pleased the ward spells didn’t blast him to pieces. So there is that.”
(To an Eyes of Pallass) “Grit. My master told me how melancholy it would be, how extraordinary, but I never observed it myself. He told me to wait. For surely, one day they would astonish me, the day I saw my apprentices rise.”
(To his students) “This is conditioning! Look at his fat-to-muscle ratio. And he is not failing in his form! It has been thirty minutes and his speed hasn’t dropped! Gonads! This Human has gonads! We will be adapting this exercise if I have to create a lake!”
