Eight days had passed since we started heading out, it was the 4th of August now. It had been a relatively easy journey so far, the monsters were barely even a problem, I could take them out without even fully paying attention. I spent about a couple of hours at night each day to train Fuo, which was just some basic sparring.
It was definitely effective though, she'd showed increasing signs of improvement bit by bit with each sparring session we had. We had a slight delay when we used Store on the horses while taking a break...since things remain in a stagnant state while in that spell, the horses got no rest, and we had to stay put for a few hours longer than expected. But that aside, it had been pretty smooth sailing. We were pretty close to the Goldlands now, and not far from the location of the Giant King.
Hey, Lazarus, which way is the target?
"Twenty klicks straight left from here."
