Rein and Chloe awoke the next day, and after bidding the innkeeper farewell, they set off for Draconica to meet up with their friends. Before they left, Rein tried teleporting to Raxo's ring but was unable to due to the artifact still limiting his power. Besides, he wanted to investigate outside the city before entering it, so heading there on food and getting some exercise was okay with him.
"You wanna jog?" Rein asked as he picked up the pace slightly, making the gloomy girl perk up.
"Hehe, it sure would get the blood pumping!" She laughed, discarding her somber expression.
When they were out of sight of the village, the two began jogging steadily. This jog, however, was about the speed of a galloping horse. As they traveled, Rein took the opportunity to contact Versys. His ability to speak with him was still limited, but he could at least talk to him now.
"Versys, have I received any level-ups yet?" He asked in his head.
