Bab 1244: Progression [3]

A cave hideout didn't seem a secure enough location for a task like this, but they didn't have much choice, since there wasn't anywhere else to hide.

Unfortunately for Damien, the Ancient Battlefield's restriction of entry and exit applied to more than just the lower universe.

Actually, it should have been granted.

If it could block the connection to the lower universe, it could definitely block travel to other universes as well.

Including the Sanctuary.

The ground was too solid and didn't have a subterranean world, so there was no point in digging down. The only option was to find a relatively hidden cave and set up substantial defenses to protect themselves.

And that's what they did.

While Iris stood guard, Damien sat down and focused on his soul, repeating the process he completed when he first entered the Ancient Battlefield.

It was easy to make a single connection, but Damien had a choice to make here.
