Chapter 3160: Realization

Leonel continued to walk forward, his steps steady, his breathing deep and even. He seemed to forget that there were other people around him completely; he didn't have eyes for them. 

His own goal was to make it from one statue to the next, conserving as much energy as he could while accomplishing his objectives. 

His path forward wasn't something anyone else could understand, nor did he need them to. 

The heaviness of his steps and the weight his shoulders bore; he would use it to make his spear heavier.
