Nero meets Kretos

Kretos followed behind Amon who was leading the way. As he was walking Kretos was trying to heal his wounds, but after a few tests, it would seem that the wounds he got from the beam of light couldn't be healed as fast as he wanted to. 

'That beam of light had poisoned a bit of my mana, it would take me a few days before I get back to my optimal state. Circulating my mana in my current state might spread the poison even more, but if I do it right I can heal my wounds much quicker.'

After thinking about it that far Kretos simply shrugged his shoulders no longer caring. He wasn't really bothered by the mana poisoning. 

Amon looked at the distracted Kretos and was amazed by how easily he was following him. At first, Amon just planned to tease Kretos by moving as fast as he can and leaving him behind for a while. But he was surprised to see how easily Kretos was able to keep up and with his injuries no less.
