>>213077
What is the young lady like?

Also ask for the name of the sister.

He stops again halfway through the fourth hall.

>"The garden is past this door, which connects with different areas of the manor. Upstairs is the the master's room, as well as various other rooms. You are not permitted entry unless it's for a special reason."

He looks meaningfully at me.

>"I could come with you to the class if you'd like."

Nah, if we solo it, we get more experience.

"no, thank you for the offer though."

>"Suit yourself. You won't be able to go anywhere while the young master is there, so just head on to the classroom. It's through this door, to the left."

The butler leaves, and I follow his directions.

In the garden, a young by I'm assuming to be the young master is sparring with another man. They both appear to be distracted.

>>213105
Watch the sparring session and try to notice any noticeable openings on the boy for future use.

>>213109

Also watch for any openings on the the other man for tips for the young master.

watch but keep moving.

>>213105
Keep moving. People known for stabbing out eyes should not be first met while they are swinging around a sword.

>>213105
Observe. It might give meaningful insights into the people who live here.

>watch for research
Despite his fierce expression, he's not very fluid. His footwork is stiff, and he looks like he got hit by a truck whenever he blocks. I'm a bit concerned he's going to break a limb if he doesn't loosen up.

His attacks are extremely straight-forward, but they're strong and quick. There seems to be some raw potential there.

His instructor, on the other hand, moves in a very fluid fashion. It's a bit odd to see a swordsman navigate like a path of water. He's dodging all the blows easily, and dancing about in an extremely unpredictable manner.

The power difference is a bit too much to really analyze much.

interesting. anyway, let us get a move on. people to teach and all.

>>213381
Challenge the child to a duel and assume your superiority!

>>213392
>Impaled his butler's eye

yeaaaaahno

>>213409
You're right. We must avenge the butler! We are getting into this fight for the wrong reasons. Thank you Shot. You have opened my eyes.

>>213392
No.

Not yet.

Let's practice with a sword on our spare time.
Since we identified what was wrong with his stance and fighting style so easily, I must assume we at least have a basic knowledge of swordsmanship.

We are, after all, a tutor.

But we aren't specialized in combat. That doesn't mean we can't practice.

>>213381
That's no boy.

>>213449
look at gender select thingy. seems our choice reflected whether we tutor the brother or sister.

>>213381
Looks like you might be able to give the kid some insights later on. For now get to the classroom and see what you have to work with.

Ignore fight, go to sister.

Bring ice cream.

>ignore fight
I leave them to spar and enter the oh god this is not a classroom

... try to clean up a bit

Ask if there's a library room, and take stock of what's available in this, uh, learning space. The boxes need to be inventoried for teaching materials, and then go somewhere else. The beam needs to go. You need a table and a couple of chairs at least. And an easel or chalkboard or something.

Good plan. Clearing first.

There are two benches and a blackboard, so that will be all I need to set up. I need to get rid of the rug by the door, the bag by the second bench, and the boxes in the way of the blackboard.
There's a door behind the boxes as well.

This is barely a challenge.

There should be roughly 20 minutes left once I'm done clearing. I could examine the balcony without a staircase, check the door, rifle through the boxes, or go look for a library.

I won't be able to do written work without desks, so I'll have to be teaching magic first.

>>213825
Go check out the door that is probably not filled with monsters or anything. Also use your flashiest magic just to show off how awesome you are.

>>213825
Also check out the toilet in your map.

Check in the door!

>door

It's a tunnel leading down. I can see the floor from here, so it doesn't go very deep.

>>213838
Jump down in a fabulous manner.

>>213838
Can you illuminate it somehow? Magic light or fire or something?

It's a very wide, open space. Light doesn't travel far.

I won't be able to hold a flame for long without a channel for my magic.

>>213856
You should probably shoot that fireball in front of you and hopefully something will catch on fire and possibly scream.

let's leave this room closed for now. something bad looks to be in here.

>>213857
>>213858
These don't sound mutually exclusive to me!

There's something in here. Leave and close the door.

Creature: Skull Centipede.
Like to burrow deep underground and live in the damp moist soil, but occasionally will end in basements and dungeons. It's diet mostly consists of corpses, but it is known to eat living things if the opportunity is presented to it. Called Skull Centipede due to the fact that its white skull shaped head is usually the last thing people see. It's one notable weakness would be its soft underbelly, but due to the sharp legs, striking there would be difficult. Defeating one would usually require a small army, but to take one alone would be considered suicide unless you have a way to pierce it's thick carapace. Like most things that dwell in the dark, light tends to ward them off, but if there is nowhere for it to run, it will just charge. Some have tried to ride it since it doesn't appear to have any way of riding things on top of it, but none have been able to reach up there unscathed.
Suggested course of action: Become a legend and be the first to slay one by yourself.

>>213886
RUUUNNNN!

tell me you are an ungodly powerful mage? cause that may be your only hope.

>>213886
Wow, that is a big fucking monster to have under your house. Go back to the exit and see what it does. They probably don't have anything extremly hostile in the basement.

Just leave now in a dignified manner saying: "Excuse me I didn't mean to intrude, you startled me a bit."

Bail, call exterminator. A really big exterminator.

Looks pretty dead to me. If it weren't, it'd have taken a bit of the tasty, conveniently illuminated morsel as soon as it entered.

>>214005
It could be slumbering. Now is a good time to gtfo.

Back away sloooowly.

>>213911
This seems correct to me, apologise and leave.
