Cooking A Plan

Maria Virdis regretted her overconfidence. She had the strength, wit, and the skills to fulfill her mission.

If she was at her full strength of peak rank 6, killing a low rank 6 Undead creature called Reaper would've been child's play.

She should've reached at least the peak of rank 5 when she's this close to clearing zone 1. But she's still a peak rank 4.

'Why? What happened? Where did I go wrong?'

As the world around her blinked in and out as they teleported hundreds of millions of miles every time, Maria fell into deep thought.

But before the thought process even began, the weirdness of having the luxury to think in such a dangerous escape struck her.

'R-Right! It's all because of him.' Maria turned her gaze to the right and saw Varian's tired but solemn expression.

She had activated her space treasure to match his and despite that, Varian was putting in a lot of effort for this escape.
