Chapter 115: B2: C15: I’m Him 1
Dawn’s light appeared on the eastern horizon of a gray winter morning. Thin beams streamed between the ice-coated trees, frost-covered hedges, and weathered statues.
It was all nice and picturesque, or it would’ve been if Ezda wasn’t moving so fast while Zarian rode on her back.
She was transformed into her more giant bestial form as she took them back south, which was an unnecessary mode of transportation for Zarian. He could move on his own feet fairly fast.
He couldn’t fly reliably well right now, but he could leap far and glide while Para was shifted into her winged form.
Or he could cast Void Authority to enhance his next Void Step, which would’ve taken him most of the way back to the village. That was something he should learn to abuse more often instead of thinking about it in hindsight.
Yet, there was a certain primal thrill he felt while riding on gnoll elder, a Level 91 Blood Brute. Especially when she was a hulking beast straight out of fantasy.
It was like riding the giant version of a hyena who could eat an entire tavern’s supply of food and some patrons as dessert.
Granted, that matched Zarian perfectly.
He and his cloak could do the same, or more so.
