Chapter 34: Bristiel
It was a nice break by the lake for a day or so before it was time to start traveling again— Bristiel wasn't very far at this point so it would be stupid to wait any longer.
Everyone was well rested and ready to get back on the road. I'm still a bit of a mess after everything Shimada told me, but there's no reason to let it overwhelm me.
With that final thoughts they continue to travel for Bristiel after packing everything up that they needed. It was a nice sunny day for them to travel on which made things a bit more tolerable.
"How far are we anyway?" Cynthia asks with a bit of curiosity in her voice.
Shimada examines the map for a minute while looking at our current spot. "About a day, maybe less." Shimada answers before putting the map away.
Bristiel was only a day or so away from us— A general of the followers await us there so what do I expect? These guys have been pretty ruthless with every encounter but I don't really have much experience with higher ranking ones.
The keeper I fought was definitely more of a luck thing that I even won that battle in the first place. Something kicked in that I didn't expect while I was fighting against her in that room.
It felt as if everything was clear to me which is why it was so easy to fight against her. I don't think I'll always be given such an advantage against the enemy like that though.
My powers are definitely quite interesting to see with each interaction I have with my battles. I keep thinking it's just supposed to be magic but it appears to be more like a power than anything else.
