Leon sighed, realizing the gravity of his mistake. He had been so focused on the next battle, the next challenge, that he had overlooked the importance of mastering his current abilities. "It couldn't be helped," he muttered to himself. "I've never had proper guidance in this cultivation stuff…"
But now wasn't the time for excuses. The system had warned him, and he couldn't afford to ignore it.
He made his way back to the inn where he had been staying, a small, modest place that offered him some privacy.
The innkeeper, was surprisingly not the elderly man that worked at night time but an elderly woman with a kind smile. She greeted him as he entered.
"Back already?" she asked warmly.
Leon gave her a nod and then spoke, his tone more serious than usual. "I'll be needing some quiet time. I'll be meditating for a while, so please don't let anyone disturb me."
