1080 Towards Humfail Reef
After picking up Lyra from the Elves Tribe, Vicente and his group traveled for a few days to the coast. No one outside the group was traveling with them. The war was still going on in Amae, even though things had calmed down a bit recently. But the fairies had ensured that a group would stay to protect their newly prepared vessel until they reached their destination.
Vicente wasn't worried about local problems, however. During his days traveling alongside Lyra, peaceful days given the fact that his fame had spread across the island, he took the opportunity to start learning more from this experienced local historian.
Lyra had a lot to tell him, having studied for many times longer than Vicente's lifetime. Because of this, he was sure he could gain a lot from talking to her, but for now, he wanted to focus on what was most useful.
The journey ahead would be long enough for all kinds of conversations, but the most important thing for him now was to hear what she knew about the Sea of Stars, the route they should take, dangers and opportunities.
Vicente remembered very well how he had almost been killed by a sea creature before arriving on the island. Even though he'd gotten a bit stronger in Amae, he still had a long way to go before he underestimated the mighty Sea of Stars.
So that was what most of their first conversations were about until the group finally spotted the sea early one afternoon. Seeing their destination so close, the group's conversations slowed and Rex increased his pace, moving more quickly through this final stretch of Amae's magical island.
'That was a quick journey. Just a few months in Amae were enough for me to improve by four stars and get a pentagram.' Vicente assessed his time in fairyland, obviously satisfied. Although his progress in terms of stars and pentagrams in Amae was inferior to what he achieved in Light Cay, in terms of mana density, his progress was far superior. Given the short time he had been there, Vicente was sure that his cultivation speed had accelerated considerably. 'That's good, but it can't stop here. I have to keep looking for opportunities like the elemental essentials if I'm to reach the 9th stage!'
He watched Rex complete the rest of the path, thinking about his family and the challenges preventing him from being with the women he loved.
