章 370: Back on the Grind

Several days passed since their encounter with Rothwind, and Alex and Mira now found themselves deep in the wilderness of the Primordial Expanse once more.

The tall trees loomed overhead, their gnarled branches casting long shadows across the jungle floor.

Despite the beauty of their surroundings, the atmosphere felt heavy with tension — the kind that came with uncertainty of what was ahead.

After leaving Rothwind's smithy, the duo had gone straight back to the mission hall. The thought of waiting around for a month for Rothwind to craft them their armours wasn't even considered.

They decided to use their limited time more effectively, and get right to searching for some beasts to further Mira's progress on her requirements.

Alex's advancement was still out of the question for the time being, but Mira could still complete her requirements in a relatively short time.
