Dronic Dungeon level 91….
"Oh? It has been four months, and she has already soaked up the entire pool."
"Not bad at all..."
"She seems worth teaching..."
"Yes, she does..."
"Now to test how much she has improved..."
Kana was currently sitting naked in an empty pool that was once filled with bluish purple magma. "That should do it, right?"
*Ding!*

"For all the pain I had endured, I guess it was well worth it." Kana smiled, seeing the change in her stats. She felt like she could take on any attack and be fine. "Now to find that ol…."
*Bam!*
Kana felt as if her chest was caving in as a strong force slammed into her sending her flying backwards. She flew straight into the side of the volcano cliff face causing a large crater to form from the impact.
"Is she dead?"
"She might be dead..."
"You used too much force.."
"We lost our little disciple..."
"Mmm… Too bad… Now we wait for another..."
"She's fine."
"Oh?" The five other old ladies said at the same time.
"Ouch! That stings!" Kana pouted as she rubbed her back as she climbed out of the crater that formed when she hit the cliffside. Her tanned skin showed no wounds whatsoever. With no protection at all, using her body alone, she was able to take on such a powerful attack and still come out unscathed. Kana looked around and soon spotted the old ladies in the air and frowned. "Did you need to punch me so hard!?"
"She is not hurt!"
"She can be trained!"
"This will be fun!"
"She may still die..."
"Mmm… She may be dead soon..."
"Enough! Sister Tu will start training her in Archery. Once she has mastered it, she will then move on to Sister Mu to learn swords. After that, Sister Fu for polearms, Sister Nu for axes, Sister Ju for hammers. Then I, Sister Ku, will finish her training with Dragfu combining it all into one. All agree?" Sister Ku layed out the training plan. All the old ladies looked at each other and nodded their heads. No one had any objections. "Good, sister Tu if you will."
"Hehe… I am first!" Sister Tu smiled and shot towards Kana.
Kana, who was still staring at the old ladies in the air, was startled to see one of them disappear and then reappear in front of her. The old lady grinned widely as she said: "Hehe… Girl, you are lucky. You will now train under us sisters and become powerful beyond your imagination. But first, you need clothes and rest. You will follow me for now. Call me Master Tu."
And before Kana could say a word, the old lady's wrinkled old hand grabbed her shoulder, and before she knew it, she was dragged into the air at high speed, hurtling towards some unknown destination.
Rural Kingdom…
"The wall here is where we will be crossing. " Dev had brought both Kiliffia and Tia over to a deserted area of the wall that was far away from any roads. She walked over to where a large rock was leaning against the wall and pushed it to the side, revealing a gap just big enough for a person to crawl through. "I will go first. You two follow behind me."
Kiliffia and Tia nodded and waited for Dev to enter the hole before crawling inside as well. Although the distance between the two sides was not far when crawling on the ground in a tight space, it still took a good five minutes to reach the other side. Kiliffia stood up and dusted off her clothes, and looked around. In front of her was a large lake that stretched for quite a ways.
"So this is Elurean?" Kiliffia asked.
"Yes, you are now in the Kingdom of Elurean. You girls are on your own from here. I will be hiding in the shadows. Head to the east side of this lake, and then north, you will then find the town of Triefil. Start your investigation there." Dev left these words then disappeared.
Kiliffia looked at Tia and asked: "Shall we get going?"
"Mmm… It seems we will have a long journey ahead of us." Tia couldn't even see the town by the lake that Dev was talking about. This was just how big the lake was.
The two girls wasted no time as they quickly made their way towards their destination. The moons were full and high in the sky, allowing for a decent amount of light as they traveled. The only main thing the girls had to complain about was that the bugs seemed to want to attack them left and right.
After about two hours, they had finally made their way around the bend of the lake, and in the distance, they could see the outline of a town. Kiliffia estimated in her head that they still had about five hours to go.
It was around morning time that Kiliffia and Tia finally reached the gates of the town. Unlike the hustle and bustle of a city, this town was not as busy. This was not to say that the streets, from what they could see, were not already filled with people going about their business, but the number of people in view was much less.
Seeing two young girls walking up, the guard narrowed his eyes. He scanned the two girls carefully, and when he spotted that they had no animal traits, his brow eased. He scanned the girls up and down, taking notice of any kind of anomalies. He quickly noticed quite a few with just a quick look. He then stepped forward and stopped the two girls: "Halt! May I ask where you two are coming from? For you to be out so early in the morning, how is it that you have no bugg bites on your skin?"
