[Kai's enthusiastic response puts a bigger smile on Lu Meng's face. As a man who has dedicated his life to mentoring those under his care, nothing inspires him and keeps his hopes up like seeing the younger generation willing and ready to learn.
If Kai's cheered up, then Lu Meng's nearly glowing. Perhaps it's just the effects of the lights nearby though; despite it being morning time, they're shining brightly as the sun itself.]
Very well then Lady Kai! I will do my best to teach you everything I know; I will not disappoint you!
[Well, no one can say Kai isn't ever enthusiastic. That's one of her... outstanding traits. As said by Ujiyasu, "Of course, there's still people like her."]
Perfect! I'll become a beauty with both brawns and brains... no one will be able to stand a chance!
[O-of course, that's not the only reason she wants to learn.] So, when should we start?
[At least they still have 12 months a year and 7 days a week... it'd be a lot harder to follow if their had different numbers for that shit.]
...Er. [Count...ing...] I've got to work on Ecte, too... two days after Pempte, then! Or, we could practice some tactics on any bandits planning to raid the crops.
It could be more effective for your studies if you were able to witness these tactics firsthand...very well then. I'll see you on Ecte then. We shall meet at the clocktower at dawn; I'll give you some pointers on how to read the enemy movement, and then you can apply what you learn when we take to the fields later in the day.

I'm currently tasked with sending supplies up to the Northern Villages so I'll be away from Verens till...Pempte.
[The name of the days are still a little confusing to him.]
How about the day after then? Ecte.
