"The gift of swordsmanship is only one aspect of the matter. Normally, one enters the golden age of learning at twelve, so it may not be too early to make a judgment now. However, for a qualified swordsman, the first quality to possess is the courage to overcome oneself." Brand looked at Prince Haruz and spoke slowly. He was unsure whether this young Prince had exceptional talent, but he understood that for him, the crux of the problem probably didn't lie in his talent.
But rather, in courage.
Princess Griffine looked at him in surprise. Of course, Her Highness heard the implicit meaning in Brand's words, "Mr. Brand, what do you mean?"
She had almost given up hope. Ou Fuwei'er had taught Haruz swordsmanship for a period, and though Sir Wolf was patient, he could not give Haruz the courage to face his own sword.
