Since Shen adored his slippers, Leo decided to pull them out.
It was harder than he thought. He had to use both his hands to pull the slipper out.
With not a lot of effort, he finally removed the slipper from the muddy swamp. Unfortunately, it tore in half.
"Phew!", Leo sighed as he wiped the sweat on his forehead.
He stored the slippers inside his spatial ring carefully, making a mental note that he should return the slippers to Shen as soon as he sees him. Maybe even compensate for a new pair of slippers for Shen since he tore one of them. The second was much deeper, but he pulled it out nevertheless, tearing a bit of it again!
After that, Leo continued walking, this time a bit further ahead of the muddy swamp areas.
Leo thought that Shen should be somewhere around here since his slippers were there.
However, Leo was confused as to why Shen would leave his beloved slippers at random places.
