Departure

While the Lohars were slowly gathering on the open field, and outside Vila town, Selene spotted a beast at the low Fortification stage. 

She severely injured it to bring it to Kyle, who was still holding the reins of the Lakin.

Finishing off the beast, he devoured its soul without hesitation.

Through the soul particles, Kyle wished to test a theory. 

He wanted to figure out whether the white shrouds nurturement was higher if he provided soul particles directly instead of using the Nurture ability.

In the end, the effect was roughly the same, or at least it seemed that way.

As such, he was able to create a training schedule for himself in the journey that would take several weeks.

However, before Kyle could finish his task, Sven had already returned. 

With a faint smile on his face, he thanked Kyle for his earlier advice before returning to his serious expression.
