"I need to go pick Lily up!" I said that out loud.
With that, I didn't waste any more time as I quickly left the inn and headed towards the temple area. I did tell Shiki telepathically not to follow me this time as it would make them a bit suspicious. Also, I couldn't make him go away for some obvious reason...
I am aware that keeping Shiki here would burn my mana but I think it's fine... since I never even once suffer from mana deficiency for summoning the shadow creeper and letting him stay. Which kinda makes me think that my mana reserve has grown.

This time around, I was able to head to the temple much faster. As there's no interference whatsoever, plus I didn't bump into anyone I know while I'm on my way. So it took me around 20 minutes or so to arrive at the temple district.
