758 The Rules Are Still Relevant

Aurolio reached the summit of the mountain in less than a two minutes. Rias had been right. The mountain was larger than one would think. It suddenly broadened close to the base, arching into the forest he and the young man had battled in.

Naturally, he hadn't bothered with the powerful, chained Cluster General after Rias left. It was kept alive to keep the Cluster intact so there was no good reason for him to kill it.

Instead, he had scaled up the mountain, and found that the large landmass was not quite as normal as one would expect, especially for him who hadn't encountered an expositing Sky Watcher.

Even Aurolio was a little rattled by the mystical carvings, indecipherable writings, and twisted objects he found as he scaled the mountain.

More times than not, Aurolio had been sure he had heard a voice suddenly shriek close to him, or felt something touching his back, but when he turned, he didn't see anything.
