Chapter 173 - Cultist's Base

After a day has passed, the both of us bid farewell to Izgoy to go where Neco found those two artifacts. "Here." Neco handed me a blue stone. Its size were something like a pebble. I could see the air inside swirling around in this translucent case of stone... or maybe glass? I don't know.

"What's this?" I asked.

"It's a Marestone. It allows you to breathe and see underwater but it only lasts for thirty minutes."

"No." I handed him over the stone. "Keep it, I don't need that to breathe underwater."

"That so?" He was hesitant to take it but took it anyway. "It's your funeral. Let's go. Just follow me."

"Alright." We dived in the water but uh... I don't know how to swim. How do people do this again? I just waved my feet like I was walking on ground but I can't cover long distances with it. 

Neco was hundreds of meters away from me. He came swimming at me, "Do you... not know how to swim?" He asked.
