Almond's group stopped roughly one kilometer up in the mountain at a good spot with a thick patch of dark clouds raining lightning above a big river's path flowing through the mountain.
The lighting was more intense and strong in this area, perfect for his new challenge.
He summoned Forest Maid Sylvia and Dark Pope to help him since this would be a bit dangerous. These two had support skills and healing skills, so he summoned them to heal him when necessary.
Nikki and Anton could feel that Almond wanted to do something particular. They had already given their knowledge to Almond about how they practiced in lightning to acquire affinity with it, and he followed it as well.
But when they saw Almond's fortification appearing as he got ready to take on the lightning of this area, they frowned.
"Why did he make such a thin Fortification and even layered Body Enfold on top?" Anton asked. "Do you know anything about that, Nikki?"
