Kapitel 228: The Conviction Of A Nimrod Worm [Part 2]

"Why are you all so afraid? What are you guys so afraid of?"

Helena remained ensnared in silence as Raven bombarded her with probing questions.

"Sealing the rifts may not guarantee a path home. But you must realize it will fortify you, render you powerful enough to confront the terrors lurking in the sea's depths."

Raven paused, contemplating, before fixing her gaze upon Helena.

"Are you not even already formidable enough to face such horrors? All you require is a team of equal might."

She took a step closer, meeting Helena with an expression of disarming honesty.

"For now, I am merely a Master. Maybe, I lack the strength to match your prowess, but I am confident of my potential. Once this journey concludes, I will become a Sage."

Helena studied Raven. The Feral Sage had maintained a tense, grave demeanor until this moment.

Now...she simply chuckled and shook her head in bemusement.
