"Huff...huff, they are really so persistent," Lorain spoke as she took deep breaths, "but finally, we lost them."
"Mini, would you please create a resting barrier for me?" Lorain said as she looked at the football-sized cat on her shoulder and caressed her softly.
"Meow~~" the cat was sleeping, and even when Lorain was running, the cat was undisturbed. But the cutie woke up after Lorain called her.
The cat had fully light black fur with dark silver eyes. It meowed, and a black barrier with pitch-black sparks formed around Lorain.
"Thank you, Mini," Lorain said as she caressed the cat, "you can continue to take rest."
Afterward, Lorain started to move slowly as her Animo threads and soul energy recovered faster inside this resting barrier.
After walking for a while, Lorain arrived at her destination in a canyon, where she was going to enter a dungeon.
