Kapitel 293: Backyard

Recap: After leaving under the cover of darkness, Elero and Thomas were led by Frey towards a ruin in hopes of discovering the key to Elero's salvation. On their way however, it seems as though Thomas developed an arrogant pride from his training, a flaw quickly pointed out by Frey. Thomas apologized and went silent, wondering if he was supposed to assign blame to himself or to what he feared he was becoming.

Almost to the ruin, the three disciples encountered a group of Jackal's minions searching through the swamp, each with a specified role. Thomas crept up to listen in. He neglected to notice a snake slither behind him, and Frey revealed himself to save him. A battle ensued, with the three disciples sloppily executing their new fighting styles and techniques.
