Progress and Another

"I am home."

"You have said that before."

"No, I just feel that looking at your face really makes me feel like home."

"... I don't know how I should take those words."

I shrug my shoulder as a way to tell Valeria she can freely comprehend it the way she likes. She shakes her head faintly with a small smile just at the same time we arrive in front of the door connecting us to the garden.

The door opens even though none of us activate the Rune inscribed on it, which slightly surprises me considering it has never happened before. I am quick to shrug it off though; after all, this world is a Magic world.

Whoosh!

The last time I went to the garden was roughly two weeks ago, which was right after my Awakening. Valeria brought me there because she wanted to show me how far the gap between me and the Heroes was.
