Bab 184: A Brief Respite From The Journey

The next three days at the Kazuichi Stronghold passed in a blur of activity and anticipation. After the intense matches, everyone focused on recovering and preparing for their next challenge: the journey to the Hybrid Mountain Stronghold.

On the first day, the group took it easy, letting their bodies heal from the rigorous sparring. They spent time together, sharing stories and laughter, and bonding over shared experiences. Kazuichi and Arisu reminisced about their past adventures, Lea gradually opened up about her own experiences, and Jurou, Ryota, and Ayaka joined in with their tales.

In the evenings, they would gather around a fire, the flickering flames casting warm shadows on their faces as they spoke of their hopes and fears. Tris and Amaya, though not part of the sparring, listened intently, offering their own insights and encouragement.
