"… Auran lost," Leonel said lightly.
It was hard to believe. The strength that Auran had displayed before him, albeit just a small amount, was substantial. Just to counter him and Kira, Leonel not only had to use his second tier armor, he also had to actively use his Ability Index in battle for the first time in a while.
Ever since Leonel left the Tribulation Zone, whether subconsciously or not, he had stopped relying on his Ability Index in battle. The speed of improvement he had made in the way of the spear during his time in the Tribulation Zone spoke for itself. He would just be too stubborn if he chose to ignore the evidence right before him.
Over time, he was slowly finding a balance between relying on his intelligence and his innate talent to slowly move forward and improve. However, it wasn't an easy balance to find. The last time he had had a breakthrough in this regard was during his battle with Myghell.
There will only be two chapters today and tomorrow. These last two months have been quite hectic and we're in the final stretch now. Come August, we should push ahead stronger than ever.
Starting the week of the 17th, I will only be able to upload one chapter a day for at least a week, potentially longer, but I will try to keep it as short as possible (I'll also be using a leave of absence on the 17th, so no chapters that day). The (semi) good news is that these chapters will be at least 15-1600 words in order to sustain win-win, so just a bit short of two chapters. The bad news is, obviously, that there'll only be one of them.
The reason for this is that I'll be moving into my new home starting that day. This is the first time I'm moving out of my parents' home since college so I have a lot of stuff to prepare and just the lawyer/insurance/broker/paperwork/bank stuff is drowning me, not to mention the work it'll actually take to move and set everything up.
After we leap over this hurdle, DD will come back stronger than ever, and hopefully even better now that I'll have my own space and freedom to be as creative as I want.
Thanks everyone for the support! I don't say it enough but writing for a living is truly a dream job, and not a day goes by that I don't remember that. I'll go into this new chapter with a smile on my face for sure, no pun intended, lmao <3
