Sealed Core

After the quick briefing, similar to what we did yesterday, we split up and continued training with Fatima's clones. I don't know about Ember and Fang, but I felt that the intensity of the training got amped.

The intensity of the training was so high that we didn't even have time to eat lunch. When I was about to pass out from both hunger and fatigue, Fatima decided to end the training for the day.

At the usual gathering spot, Ember and Fang were already lying flat on the floor, unconscious. Despite their attire, which was pretty much plain clothes, getting so battered it was full of holes, there's not a single trace of injury left in their bodies.

Although I was hungry, I decided to postpone it and just lay down to sleep.

I woke up, probably in the middle of the night (?), and saw that both Ember and Fang were still asleep. However, Fatima was nowhere to be found.

"Where did she go?"
