Chapter 21
Gravis walked behind the group of hunters. His armor was one solid, so it was really difficult moving his legs and arms. He constantly had to concentrate on keeping the obsidian ‘flowing’. It was draining, but he also realized that it helped him temper his will.

The hunters in front of Gravis were nervous. They felt Gravis’ Will-Aura. They didn’t know what a Will- Aura was, but they still felt it. It felt like a wild beast trailed them, waiting for a chance to strike.

Gravis kept walking in silence. He wanted to know more about the world and any essential towns or cities nearby. Sadly, he had to remain mysterious, so he didn’t initiate a conversation. He needed to wait for them to start one.

“We will arrive in our village in about two hours. The bandits should come tomorrow. That’s the best opportunity to strike them,” Sarah said after hours of silence.

Gravis was happy that he could finally talk. “There will be no issue. When they arrive tomorrow, I will bestow death upon them!” Gravis sneered, but the others couldn’t see it. “That the bandits exploit your village, shows their weak will and power.”

They heard Gravis’ disdain but kept quiet. Even if their village was weak, it was still their home. They didn’t like someone calling their home weak. Yet, they knew that they lived in a different world than the Earth Spirit.

Sarah continued. “You should not underestimate them. They have three people with tempered skin. Our village, in comparison, only has two, my father and me. If you stop one, we can fight equally.”
