Chapter 33: Bishops
The night passed quick. Jake hadn’t slept at all; he spent the night reading some books he randomly picked from her warehouse, trying to gather whatever information he could get. But it seemed she only had some books on small towns, local myths, and useless information.
The orange hue of the sun had barely made it over the horizon line, and Jake had already packed everything that he needed. He washed his tracksuit that night and let it out to dry, so after a bath this morning, he wore them again.
After that, he woke Ophelia up and asked her to go prepare. This time, she went in alone. The reason Crypt had helped before was because she was badly injured, but that wasn’t the case anymore.
She took around ten minutes to get ready, and they could finally leave. The streets were empty. The cold air blew across their faces, whistling in the distance.

"Oh, that. With everything that was going on, it kind of slipped my mind," Jake said. He could literally hear the system click its tongue when it heard that.
[Whatever, I’m going to sleep.]
"Wait, wait, since you’ve brought it up already, why not tell me about it?" Jake said.
[You didn’t want it, so why should I?]
