Bab 75: The Temple Entrance

Nia flew for hours in both freezing cold and scorching heat. She continued to fly in the desert and followed the markings on Miura's map. She had to retrace where she left off at times due to the confusing nature of an endless desert and her own speed. She hurried to follow the path set for her and looked for where the temple was marked. Nia wanted to tell Belze about what happened, but the fear of the dragonslayers and the fear of having to tell him in person held her back. Miura's words rung deep. In any case, she didn't want to bring any danger to them. Her senses didn't pick up any dragons, but she was sure that he would come for her. She didn't know why the Crimson Black Knight was hunting dragons, but she knew that if they faced off again, she wouldn't be so lucky to come out mostly unscathed. His strength and technique was far refined than that of Nia's.
