Meeting Sarah

Varian decided to 'awaken' in Water Path.

Not only should he awaken, but he should also reach level 4 in five days.

If someone told him he'd attempt such a crazy thing a month ago, he'd have scoffed at them and said. "I might be crazy, but not that crazy."

Now, he wasn't so certain.

But even for Varian, such a feat was difficult.

Regardless of how fast he progressed, he hit bottlenecks every now and then.

But for him to reach his target, he'd either not reach any bottleneck or break it as quickly as possible.

Since the former wasn't under his control, he decided to ensure a perfect breakthrough of all bottlenecks.

But how?

Varian thought back to all his bottlenecks and observed a common point. He was stuck only because he overused a way of progressing that he couldn't 'learn' anything new to progress.

Secondly, when he was at the peak of any level, advancing also took time since he wasn't sure how to 'advance'.
