Chapter 109: To the Empire

The week passed by sooner than I realized. After a long time of rest, I managed to recover about 30% of my mana and Ki.

"The rate is crazy slow?" Titania remarked as I checked over the room one last time, just in case I missed anything. Security wasn't a problem in one of the bigger inns of the Deep Down Town, but I couldn't leave behind something I might need.

"It's because the mana is constantly being refined into Arcana, and the quality of the Ki has to be at the best for intent Ki as well."

"It's still too slow..."

I dragged up the bag on my shoulders and loosened the thread on the chest of my black tunic.

"The slower it is, the stronger it is."

If need be, I could fill it up completely with comparatively impure stuff from the atmosphere, that would be what I would do most times. This just seemed more fun.
