Chapter 230: Taking back the control
Meira turned to her, eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "What do you mean? What happened? Where is he going?"
But Aurora wasn’t listening anymore. She was staring at the notification, her expression turning sour. She was clearly frustrated as she clenched her fists. "Why can’t I be by his side when he needs me the most? I don’t like it. I do not like it at all."
She clenched her fists and stared in the direction where Damon had disappeared. "I need to form my mana core soon. I cannot be weak and useless ever again. I do not want to be his burden ever again."
Meira nodded. There were a lot of things happening and a lot of changes around them. The world as they knew it was coming to an end. Today was just a glimpse of how they would be if they did not have enough strength, always at the mercy of someone else.
"We need to become stronger. A lot stronger." She nodded in agreement, her eyes turning fiery with determination. Never again did she want to message someone and wait so desperately for them to come and rescue her. "None of those filthy scums would dare to come near us next time."
The two women discussed their next plans and then dispersed. The players who died would take a couple of hours to respawn, so they could move freely for the time being without the threat of being ambushed again.
Not that they were stupid enough to get caught in the middle of an ambush like that in the first place. A few people they had trusted turned their backs against them, and they ended up in the situation. Otherwise, they would not have been caught off guard so easily.
Meria teleported to her class hall, where she had the backing of a mysterious mentor, and Aurora teleported to the divine temple to use the temple’s inner sanctum for her core formation. She shot one more look towards Neira city before setting off to finish her goal.
"I am coming, my love. Just give me a little time, and I will never ever have to leave your side again."
