The team had been trudging through the Verdant Night Forest for three hours straight.
The journey to this point had been anything but easy.
Along the way, they had torn through two entire layers of enemies and crushed two minor bosses, leaving a trail of smoldering corpses, shattered trees, and a whole lot of exhaustion in their wake.
Mia was hunched over slightly, gulping down an energy serum like a woman who had just escaped the desert.
Rin and Rai both sat on a large rock, their chests rising and falling rapidly, their hands shaking slightly from the constant strain of battle.
They chugged down stamina serums to restore their bodies, but even then, their minds were just as worn out as their muscles.
Only one person looked completely unbothered.
Creed.
Not only did he look fine, but he was actually grinning like a fool. Yes, in this dense, dark and absolutely scary rainforest, he was grinning like a besotted idiot!
