Misunderstanding
The night was pretty young. There were still many hours until the birth of the sun but Auriel already began to regret his decision of mediating. It was fucking pure torture.
He didn't know why he was experiencing pain while he was just meditating and doing nothing else. But he guessed that the reason for this pain was his transmigration. This body wasn't his, to begin with, so he believed this was a problem caused by this.
However, there was nothing he could do other than rank up while enduring the pain with clenched teeth and hands.
Weak firstly needed to become a dog first to become a master later, if he needed to experience pain to be greater, he was going to do it.
But not now— he was already at his limit…
"Pheew!" Auriel let out a breath and slapped his thighs, getting up and wiping his sweat with his sleeve.
Then he closed his eyes and concentrated on his hearing, trying to hear what Elise was doing.
