It was noon. There were no shadows on the west side of the temple, so Sika's smile seemed even brighter under the sunlight.
"Hey, Saleen, you are so impressive now!" Sika waited until Saleen was close enough before she patted him on his shoulder. It was the first time Saleen felt Sika could be that gentle.
It was extremely difficult to control one's power. What Sika was doing was already much better than most grand swordmasters.
"What do you mean?!"
"Lex has given you the mark of the Six-winged Flying Snake. I finally understood what that was after asking a few mages." Saleen's face turned red the moment Sika came closer.
"That… Is your body alright?"
"Of course, but they won't allow me to exercise much. I'm so bored. You must accompany me now that you are back."
