690 Enemy on the Road 

Twenty days later...

Vicente and his group had made good progress on their journey north, having successfully overcome the creatures and challenges along their path.

The effects of The Seven-Day Tsunami had completely vanished, and with many beings on the continent fearing The Purification, the route through the Polaris Realm was now exceptionally clear.

Furthermore, with Casey's fourth pentagram, which endowed him with the ability to alter the temporal perception of his targets, the whole group had grown stronger.

Casey's ability allowed him to make his targets feel that time was passing more or less slowly. He could also induce his targets to behave in more immature ways, reminiscent of their childhood, making them feel as if they were reliving different times in their lives.

How did this help in combat? Well, anything that could delay defensive or offensive reactions, distract opponents and make them weaker helped a lot in any situation.
