505 Explaining to Merasi

The people of Freelands had never seen or heard of someone teleporting. Most didn't even understand it as a concept.

So, when a tall, dark woman of ungodly proportion suddenly appeared in front of them through a hole in space and demanded that they tell her where the only Aether tower of this place was, it was understandable that the civilians would get spooked into running away from her.

"Hey, wait! I'm not going to… hurt you."

By the time Merasi finished her sentences, there was only Ning next to her, and everyone else had run away.

Merasi sighed with a dejected face but then noticed Ning standing next to her.

"You aren't scared?" she asked.

Ning shook his head and pointed behind her. "The tower."

Merasi turned around and finally noticed that the tower had been behind her the whole time. 

"So small," she commented when she saw the 3 stories tall tower.
