Chapter 222: Bottomless void

'Damn, I'm tired,' I thought, pushing my body through the thick vegetation of the forest. 

'Just go down the highway, they said,' I thought with a grim look on my face. 'It will take you only a month, they said,' I thought, forcing my limbs to keep on moving. 

Right now, I was as far from the highway as one could be without risking an instant death. And the reason for such an occurrence was pretty simple. 

I finally decided to stop stalling and go for the breakthrough. But for that, I had to prepare. 

And because of this simple decision, I did nothing but hunt for the past two days of my overall week's worth of travel.

'At least my abilities are improving,' I thought, looking for solace in even the smallest details. 

Both my bolt and my warden abilities reached the ninth level. And while the warden would still take a while to reach the tenth level, I was half a day worth of grinding away from pushing bolt to the tenth level.
