Second round (27)

Though this sounded like something good, I couldn't help feeling that there was something wrong with this.

Since the guide had talked to me alone in the white respawn room, I had felt that there was something off about her.

It was almost as if she had other intentions talking to me.

As if there was something that she was expecting of me.

Seeing that I didn't say anything, the guide didn't care as she waved her hand.

The moment that she did, the sword and armour that I had been wielding suddenly disappeared.

I had completely forgotten about them since they felt so natural, like they were a part of me. But the moment that they disappeared from me, I could feel the difference compared to when I had them on.

The increase in power really was something else…

It almost felt like my body was a bit heavy now that I didn't have this increase on me.

It was almost like I was weighing my body down with some weights for training like this.
