Ammasing the knowledge

"You are really going to the continent?!"

Despite how obvious from all my question it was that sooner or later my path would lead me to the mainland of the area when Celleria heard the confirmation directly from my mouth, she was still quite surprised.

"Yeah. As soon as I'm done skimming these books and manuals in here, I will be going to the continent. Why are you so surprised?"

While initially, I considered her to be a potential guide of mine, if she turned out to be too slow to connect such obvious dots, I would have to reconsider taking her with me. After all, unless she was smart enough to realise that no powerhouse on the continent would be capable of stopping me from doing her harm if she were to attempt something funny, taking her along would be too risky.

"Well, I kinda knew it already, but still, hearing it from you in person… I wanted to go back ever since a few years ago when I completed my task! It's like a dream come true for me!"
