Bab 201: At a loss

Michael thought for a long time about the next step to remove the threat of the Jungle Expedition, but he felt a little helpless.

He read the reports written by Blaire, her disciples, and the Forest Elf Summons to have as many detailed pieces of information as possible. Yet, Michael didn't have a foolproof plan.

Multiple strategies formed in his mind, but none of them seemed perfect. Something was missing…and Michael could not put his finger on it.

The thought of trying to reach something within reach but still grasping just air was unbearable. It made him feel like something was eating him from the inside out. 

"It should be fine if I leave the Origin Expanse for a few minutes, right?" Michael murmured to himself.

He hoped that a change of scenery would clear his mind and that the missing piece would fall into his lap.
