Chapter 21: Returning the Favor (1)

"Ho. Chapter? Is it like a novel?" Eruhaben curiously asked.

"Ah yes Eruhaben-nim. All worlds are recorded. These records are in different forms, but the most common is in the form of novels. Sometimes, some 'lucky' people acquire these records." They said smiling at Cale's sleeping form. "Shall we continue?"

"Yes, please." Witira responded, looking at her other self who looks like a mess.

Cale watched the knight leave the inn before drinking the honey lemon tea Ron had put in front of him.

“Ron.”

“Yes, young master.”

“Honey tea really seems to be the best to cure a hangover.”

“Isn’t it?”

Ron smiled as he looked at Cale, but Cale looked away and tried to calm his stomach. Once Cale no longer felt sick from drinking too much, they started on their way once more.

Their next destination was Puzzle City. It was the city that was the center of the transportation of goods in the East, and it was pretty famous for the number of rock towers around the city.

Cale needed to find an unfinished rock tower in Puzzle City.

“Are we camping out today?”

On took a bite of the jerky as she asked Cale. Cale nodded his head.

“Yes. Starting today, we will be camping outside every so often.”

Cale had set a pretty filled schedule from here on as well. It was because he wanted to have enough time in Puzzle City. He turned away from the kitten siblings, who were whispering quietly to each other, and looked outside the carriage window.

‘The Vitality of the Heart.’

That was the name of the ancient power that would strengthen the Indestructible Shield. This was a power that was focused on restoration and vitality.

‘That was why the eldest son was looking for it.’

"Strengthen an ancient power?" Bud* whispers.

"You're also looking for that nya~?" Hong looked at Taylor, expecting for an answer.

"Oh, that's right I was looking for that ancient power, hoping that it can cure my legs." Taylor answered while smiling.

"It can't." Cage* smiled bitterly.
