“There it is!” Adion called out and jumped to his feet. In the distance, he couldn’t finally make out the faint outline of a town.
“Good,” Minru said with a small smile.
Adion was almost more happy for Minru than himself. Even if Minru never complained, Adion cou...

Looks like Minru is still sleeping. Adion thought as he spread out his space mana in the house.
They had been allowed to borrow an empty house for the night. The village head was just a Bronze mage, so Minru and Adion had been treated as respected guests. They had even enjoye...

I wonder when Minru will return. Adion thought as he looked toward the village. He had woken up just a few minutes ago. After eating and drinking, he wasn’t sure if he would have time for some painting before Minru came back.
It was still an hour or two before sunrise, but ...

“Shouldn’t we travel at night?” Adion asked as he looked up to the sky. It was only early afternoon, and the sun was unsufferably hot.
“I thought you wanted to get moving,” Minru said as he fastened his luggage with some ropes on the back of the senba.
“Fine,” Adion said...

“Aah,” Adion breathed out in relief, “Thanks a lot.”
“More?” Minru asked.
“Yes, please,” Adion answered, slightly embarrassed. He didn’t know how valuable water was in a place like this.
Unfortunately, he hadn’t brought his own, so he had no choice but ...

Where am I?
Adion sat up with a jolt.
Oh, right. Keshi.
Adion immediately recalled that he had been shown to what appeared to be an abandoned house by Keshi the day before.
Adion stood up to look out the window.
It’s so dark. It’s prob...

I guess it’s time to move out.
Adion looked back to his cave dwelling, a little reluctant to leave it behind. He had spent two days here, and it was incredibly comfortable.
He was able to sleep all night without any problems. He had as much fresh meat as he wanted fro...

I don’t get it. I can feel the wind, so why can’t I control it?
Adion waved his arm in front of him, trying to somehow grab hold of the wind, but to no success.

But I also feel like I ...

Perhaps he wasn’t actually thirsty, just a remnant thought that refused to go away. He wanted to drink water.
