Castle Town Ruin

"Look at you. You're too optimistic. I spent 200 years to reach this point. You are 150 years too early to say that you will reach my level." Remilia smirked.

Normally that should be the case but I'm not normal after all. How long was it since I started?

"If I tell you I spent only a few months, give or take, to reach this point. What will you think?"

As if she felt my words were all about jesting, Remilia furrowed her brows. "Huh? Jokes should at least be somewhat believable, you know? And you can't impress me with just a joke."

"But I'm not joking. It's the truth." I shrugged and told her how it started for me. The milestones I reached and the fact that I still haven't completed my Mortal Pathway. All of that except I am cultivating 5 Mortal Pathways.

Although I want to impress her, I can't just give away all my secrets to her. In any case, just proving that it's not even a year since I started was enough to make this woman speechless.
