Asura followed close behind Art as they made their way through the narrowing tunnel. The mana concentration grew thicker with each step, pressing around them. She could understand why Art had chosen this route, though she wasn’t sure if it was bravery or recklessness that guided him since the concentration here was more than the alternative path.
Still, she stayed quiet, only the soft crunch of their footsteps breaking the silence.
Art, however, wasn’t alone in his thoughts. He was deep in conversation with his guide.
'So, you’ve been aware this whole time?' he asked.
'Not quite. It’s more like I’ve been in a light slumber. But every time I awaken, I catch up on everything that’s happened. And I must say, you’ve come far. You’re much stronger now.”
The numbers didn’t lie. His stats said it all.
