Dear diary.
Today I began my six phase plan to reach the Human Village with minimal problems. Today, aka phase one was all about mapping the most optimal route to get to the village, well second most optimal. The absolute most optimal would be to simply. Fly over there but where's the fulfillment and challenge in that am I right? I've asked around and pretty much only Sakuya knew of a general route there. Looking back I guess I was super unlucky or something because for all the time she's lived in Gensokyo and visited the village she was never really attacked by a Youkai like the one I killed. Well that's behind he now and thanks to my supervisor I managed to get my route planned out.
Now My little sparring session with Flan and Meiling was a bit better today too. I mean sure I got hit a lot but they both commended me on my borderline minuscule improvement. Well they didn't say that word for word but you get what I'm saying? Seeing both of them acknowledge my growth felt pretty nice though. Anyway tomorrow is a new day and for my second phase! I'm off to bed now my Dear Diary!

Dear diary.
It's the second day and I woke up pretty early. It wasn't because I couldn't sleep or anything like that. I had a really nice dream that I totally forgot. That Doremy girl sure is a strange one. Anyway phase two involves increasing my magical prowess. Morning and work routine went on as normal, and it was a good thing I went to the library with Flandre. Reading story books with her then getting to INTENSE MAGIC TRAINING! Usually I would go over Magic books and get more affinity but this training session was much different, redoing my regime from ground up. What is it you ask? Well story for another time~
All in all it's a great day even though I am mentally exhausted but it's all worth it!

Dear diary.
Day three of my training regime! My head hurts from yesterday and it hurt all day but I'm still good. Phase two involves my physical prowess. Currently You can say that I have a bit more strength than of an average Joe, but starting today that's about to change! Another major overhaul to my training regime, I can tell you that I'm cheating.. a little bit. Using Magic I can basically expedite my training progress. There was some minor set back. It's Wednesday, and I had a Danmaku session with Flandre, aka me just dodging. I think I've gotten pretty good at this too, I only got hit thirty times and they hurt less! Still hurts though.I still feel heckin' Swole as I'm writing this! And I know what I'm doing tomorrow.

The Fourthday, is rest day. My head is doing alright, but now my entire body is aching. Totally worth it. Weather was fair enough for me and Flandre to head out to the garden to just hangout and enjoy the overcast. I still had to keep a Parasol over Flan's head though, just to be safe. Not much else to report today. All in all it was the easy going and fun day.

Dear diary.
Its Friday. My body still aches but its doing pretty okay. Phase five of the plan involves a bit of everything. On top of more physical and mental training but today was focused on my training with weapons. No amount of Magic is going to help me when I'm panicking and can't choose what spells to sling, and I know I am going to have a limit to how strong I'm going to get. So what's the next best thing? Weapons of course. Now I didn't bring a gun or anything like that but I did bring a Gerber TM Knife and Hatchet. It's a good start and they can be pretty handy! So I... asked Meiling if I can use them on her. She actually said yes and even told me that she was going barehanded too. Well I got my butt kicked. She was going more all out, and I'm glad she did. It's more realistic that way. I felt sluggish swinging the knife and hatchet around. I know I have a long way to go but I didn't know it's going to be this long. Another Danmaku dodging with Flandre today and I got hit a bit more than usual.
I think I counted somewhere around fifty or something. I have to get my clothes patched up later next week, I can't keep using magic as a band-aid solution. Good reason for me to head to the Village. Soon.

Dear diary.
I can tell you that the next two days are more or less planned out as a review day applying everything I've learned, and try and finalize when I am going to try another round two to tackle the Village route. And that I did. Got my butt kicked trying to spar with Meiling swinging away with a knife and hatchet in hands. Totally worth it. I was actually thinking of sparring with a weapon against Flandre and you know what, I think I'm glad that I didn't. I think she's stronger than her sister Physically anyway. I would have died if I tried. Anyway let's get away from that. The day went pretty smoothly even with the all the aching. Oh boy am I going to sleep like a log tonight.

Dear diary.
I've decided. It's going to be tomorrow. I've reviewed all the charts, maps, and I've packed what I need for the trip. The only thing I don't have is money. Because you know.. My boss is paying me in currency that wont be accepted here. They are literally piling up in my room and To be honest I don't know what to do with them. Maybe I can start my own economical empire or something but now isn't the time for that.
Now spending the day, I actually took it pretty easy. Sure I followed through with my training regime but took it down a notch. I need to be ready for tomorrow. I've told the crew what I was going to do and they were for the most part sort of indifferent. Now Flan on the other hand was all over that telling me that I needed to tell her all the details of what the village was like and all that. And that I will. I'm going to need some rest because tomorrow is a big day for little'ol me. Until next time my Dear Diary.
