Chapter 41: The Entrance

Death's Caver was about a day away in the wagon. I was worried that Besi wouldn't be up to it, but when we got to her, she was back to peak performance. We began our journey and started talking about our strategy as we all took out our Status Tablets to see the best layout.

Elaine, of course, mumbled about how even Ace got one faster than her, but we quickly began to share. Lulu was already at a staggering level 15 making Elaine's eye twitch as she questioned how Lulu could jump so many levels so quickly. Lulu didn't have an answer, but I assumed it was because of all the tests she ran on her magic.

Elaine glared at me, expecting me to say something similar. But I had to disappoint as I was at level 12 after all this time, and Elaine commented that my progression was much more reasonable.

Elaine was still at level 18 and a bit grumpy about saying it aloud. Ace was surprisingly only at level 10, and Tank was at a mind-blowing, well, Elaine's mind-blowing, level 25.
