The days after the Azemo dealt with the human soldiers were not very interesting. According to Ima it was better to let his prey wait in suspense then to immediately go hunting and they did not know that the Lightning Sword's group had already split up.
Since Azemo had some free time on his hands he decided to strengthen his monster form a bit. Not only would it give him another tool for fights, but it was also an excellent disguise.
While Azemo wanted to strengthen his monster form Bella and Ima also decided to try and power up. The fight against the powerful humans had shown them that they needed to get stronger if they wanted to protect Azemo.
Meanwhile the Lightning Sword's party were all facing their frustration in different ways.
