"no way. Petya and Alyona already became knight at that time. Why they never tell people about it?" though Arvid
"do you think the knight doing nothing all this time without war?" asked grandmother
Arvid startled. He remembered going to the palace courtyard with Petya last week. He saw the knights were training and preparing the weapons.
Arvid looked at ksatria kriss that was tied to his waist.
"Petya. What are you guys actually training and preparing for?" Arvid asked himself.
Arvid was pensive for a moment. They sat on veranda until night.
Dalia opened her eyes and woke up slowly. He walked out from her room. They saw her.
"Dalia. How do you feel now?" asked Arvid
"um. Better now"
Arvid stood and walked towards Dalia
"im sorry you get injured from protecting me"
"no. its my fault for bringing you here"
"that's right Dalia. Why are you bring him here?" asked old lady
"grandmother. I want to show him my ladny. But my spell didn't work. So we came here to ask you" said Dalia sadly
"you cant do ladny?" grandmother was shocked
"I tried it two times. I don't know why"
"damn it. I was too late"
"what do you mean?" Dalia confused
"hey young boy" Grandmother turned at Arvid
"did you touch her before?" asked the old lady
Arvid though for a while.
"at that time" Arvid remembered
"Dalia almost fell in the river. So, I grabbed her hand. to save her" said Arvid
She sighed
"I should tell her earlier" said grandmother
"tell me what?" asked Dalia
"there is a contract made for every mage. Whoever breaches the contract will lose their power. forever"
"forever?"
"yes. forever"
"what is the contract?" asked Arvid
"man mage don't touch a woman, And woman mage don't touch a man. Although by accident"
"don't you think it's too strict?" asked Arvid
"that's why not many people willing to become mage. Even Dalia's parent gave up their power for marriage."
" man, woman?" Dalia confused
