บท 155: Cousin

Leo sighed and started increasing his speed. He didn't want to see any trouble and was going to stop it if anything happened. Even though he was not strong enough as an Aura Knight to fight the mage, he would be more helpful since he could withstand the pressure of the 4th step a lot more than Marcus or Lyra.

Meanwhile, Marcus was looking back this entire time as he was resting. He saw that Leo had paused for a small while before continuing. He saw who Leo had looked at and saw the boy walk toward them pretty quickly.

Lyra saw him look back and was curious to see what he was seeing. She turned back to see if Leo had already reached them. She expected him to take a little longer based on the speed he was walking in from the start.

By this time, the mage had already reached the fourth step. He was standing in the line of sight between her and Leo. She saw who it was and widened her eyes.
