"What's up with them?" Asked Vanye with furrowed brows as she glanced between Sarabi and Nala, both sitting on either side of Alex.
"Stuff... Stuff happened." Replied Lazuli blandly as she glanced at Vanye before shifting her focus to Alexander with an indifferent expression.
"Alright, is everyone ready to go?" Asked Alexander with a raised eyebrow as he closed his space pouch before standing up, prompting the two sisters to do the same.
Glancing at Vanye and Lazuli, they both nodded before approaching, prompting me to shift my focus to Vanimo, who quickly hiked his pants up while following Talis.
"Y-Yes!" Said Vanimo quickly with a slight blush as he tied his pants and put on his shirt while Talis approached the group, standing beside Lazuli.
"You reek." "Hmm, all I did was have sex; how can I stink?" Remarked Vanye and Talis, respectively, as the former scrunched her face in disgust while the latter sniffed herself before tilting her head in confusion.
"Alright, grab each other's hands, I'm going to use [Mass Teleport]." Said Alexander as he eyed everyone before grabbing Sarabi and Nala's hands.
Giving Lazuli an apologetic look, she seemed to sympathize with my situation enough not to make a fuss as she grabbed Sarabi's hand while Vanye grabbed her hand. Nala hesitantly grabbed Vanimo's hand, who then grabbed Talis's wing, prompting her to complete the circle by grabbing Vanye's prosthetic hand.
Since I would be teleporting so many people, we wouldn't get very far, and it would require multiple trips to cover three days' worth of distance, but it should still be much faster than walking. It only took me a little less than two hours to return by myself, so with six extra people, I'm expecting roughly six times the length, so about half a day.
'That would be phenomenal if true, but let's see how the first teleport feels.' Thought Alexander lightly as he intensely focused while everyone else silently waited for him.
After a few moments, I channeled my mana through everyone's arms before using [Mass Teleport], prompting space around us to bend, contract, stretch, and squeeze before everything suddenly returned to normal. Opening my eyes, I clutched my rapidly beating heart and gasped for breath as I lowered myself to the ground while Nala and Sarabi both gave me looks of concern.
"Alex, are you okay?" Asked Nala anxiously as she held Alexander's arm while Sarabi supported his back, causing him to chuckle while nodding.
"Y-Yes, I'm fine. N-Not the first time I've exhausted all my mana, so I-I'm quite used to it; t-the sensation is just terrible, that's all." Replied Alexander with a faint smile while lying on the ground, prompting Nala and Sarabi to tend to him despite his words.
Letting Sarabi and Nala do as they please, I focused on meditating to further quicken refilling my mana reserves, which surprisingly leveled up, though it was a welcome one, so I wasn't complaining.
Given my decent-sized mana pool, it took about an hour for me to completely refill my mana, which was faster than previous, by roughly eight to ten minutes, so that level-up to [Meditation] helped.
"Hey, Alex, sorry for interrupting, but what did you do with those sisters? They hated being around me yesterday, but now I can converse with them." Asked Vanimo curiously as he squatted beside Alexander while gazing at Nala and Sarabi, both leaning against each other.
"Ah, hehe, um, well, it's a bit of a weird method... I'll tell you another time. C'mon, let's get ready; I've refilled my mana." Replied Alexander lightly with a wry expression as he awkwardly rubbed his head and glanced at Vanimo while standing up, causing him to raise an eyebrow before nodding.
