Breaking the awkwardness of what happened Sky said that she gained a lot of power. Sky proved it by creating electricity between her fingers. Everyone was surprised because everyone knew that she admitted that she could not gather Sky particles. Ba Ye thinking he had been out done, went to work researching the poison bullet so that it cost less weapon energy and taking less time to make. Jax focused on finishing the food and setting up one of the two tents as Shea set up the other tent.
Once Ba Ye gave up after a while and the tents set up and food was finished cooking, the party dig into the food made from the scorpionfish. Laughing and having fun around the campfire the party were joking around. Stories were told by everyone even the story of the great heroes told by Ba Ye. Apparently there was a bard hero who could move at the speed of sound and his whispers could split the earth. He was called the Doggfather he was part of the legendary trio 213. Jax whispered to Chui "100% sure he is talking about Snoop Dogg." Chui nodded in agreement. An Hue was a little bit sleepy and stumbled into the girls tent. An Hue felt as I love as she was sleepy and passed out dreaming of being with Chui.
After a while everyone went to their respective tents and fell asleep. Once it was morning, everyone was well rested and ready to climb the tower. Rechecking the pyramid for resources there was very little resources unchecked Jax found a flute and Chui found a mural that was a map of the floor.
He called the group together and they discussed how to plan according to the mural. The door to the next floor was far away and they also had to avoid the Guardian Beast a 8th rank Celestial physical beast which was drawn as a Gajasimha which is a elephant with the body of a lion. The beast was large considering it took up a quarter of the mural.
So off the crew set. Traveling towards their detour the crew was very annoyed with how big the desert was. There was a lot of monsters seen on the trip but none were fought until a bird which looked like it was electrified appeared and tried to strike at Ba Ye who lead the group. It was a baby raijū although it was rank 1 it had the agility of a rank 4 normal beast. Sky knew instantly that it should be her companion.
The beast whizzed and whirled through the group more annoying then actually damaging anyone. The beast spun around Shea's legs and made her fall. Quickly getting up she looked around and saw Jax chuckling. She chased the beast like she was trying to swat a fly. Sky started chanting according to the manual's instructions on how to form a pact. As her eyes glowed white she approached the Raijū. The beast looked confused as Sky jumped and grabbed it. She stared into the eyes of the Raijū and it's eyes glowed white in response. Sky responded like it was normal "It agreed to join us." Shea still furious demanded " Killing with fire." Sky responded and said His name Rakurai. Ba Ye said "Good name for a fast beast." And so whe group with the newest addition of Rakurai set off for the river of nivea.
