Inside Me
Michael missed several weeks of school to recuperate.
However, even after his War Rune's Essence had been tended to, Michael didn't bother to return to school. Instead, he disappeared through the Runic Gate to return to the Origin Expanse.
Upon stepping into the Origin Expanse, Michael was immediately surrounded by a bunch of Summons. Even though only three weeks passed in the Saphirelake Military Academy, a total of six weeks had passed in the Origin Expanse.
His territory progressed rapidly in every possible way. More high tree houses had been constructed in the proximity of the Summoning Gate and the wooden manor. Wells with fresh water had been dug out in several spots all over his territory, and his army had grown much stronger.
Just a fleeting gaze throughout his territory was enough for him to tell that they progressed well even without his help.
