She paused, then looked at Nanahara Takeshi and said, "I won't act recklessly anymore, but I still want to improve my skills. If Senior Nanahara is willing to teach me, I'm prepared to start as an apprentice."
She had been an apprentice once before when she followed Old Crow, with all her earnings taken by him. Ten months of hardship resulted in her becoming nothing more than a quick fix, skilled only in petty theft, leaving her somewhat regretful.
If she had the chance to evolve into a perfect product, she was willing to work for free for a few years.
Nanahara Takeshi wasn't surprised and simply smiled, "You have talent and courage. There's no problem learning with me. Since you want to stay, you can help me out while you learn."
