"Xuan Kai, huh?" Ling Ling, the girl with auburn hair, murmured thoughtfully. "Pretty cool-sounding name! I like it!"
"I agree. It is a nice name," Four-Eyes added. "I look forward to our friendship."
"Yeah - there aren't many people around our age in The Fortress, after all," Cherry said.
"Hm? Wait, you could tell we're around your age?" I asked, frowning a bit in confusion. Mei Gui and I were both wearing masks, it would've been difficult to tell our age...
"Is that not why you approached us in the first place?" Four-Eyes analyzed. "There are plenty of other tables you could've went to, yet you chose this one. Of course, your voice also hinted towards your age a bit, though it is quite deep. Then there is also the girl standing behind you, who is not wearing a mask."
Xiang Peng is actually a year older than me, but close enough.
"Hm...I see. Your observation skills are good, Four Eyes," I complimented geniunely.
Heya everyone. Cyclxne here.
Story pacing has been a slow for the past 250 or so chapters. But from here on, it will pick up. Xuan Kai will become stronger quicker, and I will be introducing a lot more characters. Perhaps a bit too much for you to remember, but don't worry...I'm working on multiple Auxiliary chapters at the moment, one of which will be about minor characters that no one cares about.
What? "You still haven't released that Level One spells auxiliary chapter you have been talking about ever since Volume 3!"?
Uh...listen. We don't talk about that.
Anyway, that's all from me for now.
And as always, I'll talk to you all in the next chapter~
