Description

Tenth routine physical examination.
Oripathy prognosis is stable, Originium Arts have improved due to disease progression, and the new Arts Unit prepared beforehand has been loaded. Subsequently, thermite blade's power will be greatly increased.
Well, huh... Looking at things this way, Originium only sucks when it acts up and hurts a lot. But other than that, it doesn't get in the way of my life, and can even help me in battle. Isn't that pretty decent?
Hmm, maybe that's what I'll tell the teacher's pet the next time I see her. Can't wait to see what kind of face she makes.
Wonder how she'd even respond to that...
"Your health isn't some kind of game!"
"What's so decent about that? You're actually going to die!"
Sheesh, what's the big deal anyway? You only live once, right? So why not enjoy it?
"Didn't you say you wanted to go traveling across the world? With Oripathy..."
......
......
Yeah, about that travel planner...
I'm not gonna get to check off a lot of things from my bucket list.
It sucks that I didn't even make it through a tenth of my list before getting sick. And some of the places still on it don't welcome the Infected at all. The vast tundras of Ursus, Londinium's eclectic manors, Leithanien's concert halls, Kazimierz's knight tournament arenas, the thousands of fowlbeasts sweeping across Sargon's deserts...
I wanted to see all of them, with her.
Might as well cross them out now...
Jeez, why am I thinking about all these things anyway... It's all because of that teacher's pet. I listen to her nagging too much. Even when she's not here, I hear her voice in my head.
Stop thinking about these things.
......
Let's keep those plans after all.
Rhodes Island is still moving forward, so I have to keep moving forward.
Maybe one day...
Just maybe, those places will open their doors to welcome the Infected.
