December 31, 2149.
New Year's Eve.
For the past few days, it was about the same.
Occasional training with Evelyn, helping Amelia out with her paperwork, and discussing with his company.
However, things took quite a turn in the past two days.
She had told him she had something to do, and so, they held off training for a while.
Instead, Brandon trained by himself in isolation, trying to direct the mana pathways in his body by himself.
He had found success recently, it was only a matter of time until he unlocked the first skill of his newfound [Permafrost] affinity.
In any case.
During New Year's Eve, Brandon and Amelia were set to have a dinner date. This time, without Aurelia.
Just the two of them.
But Brandon decided to leave early, and told Amelia he had already reserved seats in the restaurant.
He had something to check out first.
He received a message recently, after all.
