Fatal Chaos(3)

After asking for help, the only thing I can do is wait. The three traitors in Pole Ridge have not committed anything for me to take action and no notable events occurred.

----------------------
For the remaining days until the next conference meeting, choose an action:

1. Train
2. Dungeon Hunting
3. Observe the city
4. Complete Requests
5. [Locked]
----------------------

As I walk around the city pondering my next action, I run into Lena buying some bread. She waves at me and we exchange greetings.

"What a coincidence! What are you doing?" She asks with a bright smile.

"I'm taking a walk," I reply.

"Ah...may I join?"

"Sure."

Lena hops to my side.

I glance at her from head to toe. She matches my walking pace flawlessly and her presence is harder to discern.

As expected, she grew so much stronger in simply a few days.

I let out a long sigh.

"What's wrong?" Lena asks.

"I...was just thinking about training."

"Is it tough? I can make something that helps."

"No, it's fine. It's not about that."

I've tried training using the best methods suitable but it's too slow. Although my growth is fast for a normal person, what I'm about to face in chapter three will be vastly devastating.

...

My talent is mediocre...

Must I only rely on special dungeons and quests to grow?

"Hmmm..." Lena slows behind me and touches my back, sending a jolt of mana through.

?!

The tingling sensation twitched my body.

"Lena, what did-"

"Odd, you have a broken body," Lena says. "I've never seen this body constitution before...Arsto, can we train together? I might have a solution."

What? I didn't say anything though.

Hm...

"Alright, I owe you one," I say.

----------------------
You have chosen to train. The special event was triggered, and manual control was enabled.

Lena finished her shopping and returned the goods to the villa before we set off to the forest behind Pole Ridge.

"This will be a good spot."

At a secluded sanctuary in the forest away from bustling crowds, nature's beauty and serenity embrace the soul. Crisp and clean air. Earthly scent of damp moss and fallen leaves. Blue-hue sunlight filters through the canopy and graces the forest floor, making the forest alive with symphonies of nature's sound.
