Chapter 647 - Arrival (1/2)

Theo, Ava, and Agata continued their way to the Myutin Plain.

Due to the distance, they decided to rest on a small plain on a slope. Even then, it was already pretty late, considering Theo kept moving until 9 PM.

They had a simple dinner, wiped their bodies, and slept.

Agata finally saw how harshly Theo treated himself. She understood why Theo could progress by leaps and bounds. Normally, the group would settle down when the sun was about to set and prepare their dinner.

But for Theo, it was a waste of time. He didn't skip lunch, but he extended their travel time by a few hours before stopping just to have dinner and immediately sleep right after.

When she asked Ava, the latter told her that it was the norm. After all, Theo had used too much time back on Earth to train.

This revelation increased her respect for Theo. He had been considerate enough when he traveled with other people.

When they traveled together with Enrica, Theo stopped before the sunset and allowed them to make use of their time to wash their bodies. He even chose a location near a river.

On the other hand, Agata couldn't see any water source around the area now because Theo shifted their direction a bit to reach their destination faster.

As long as the water in their luggage wasn't empty, he didn't plan to stop.

The reason Theo showed her all this was because she had the same goal, which was to get stronger as fast as possible. So, Agata didn't complain about this condition.

The next day. She kept up with him while commanding the group every time they fought monsters.

She soon realized the burden Theo had this whole time.

Usually, he would make the schedule and plan ahead of time, and every change would come from him. This alone took a toll on one's mind after several days.

After that, they needed to fight many monsters while matching each other's movements. They would need to know what the others planned to do and help them.

This kind of mind game soon took a toll on Agata's head.

However, that wasn't all. Agata needed to come up with a plan after seeing the monsters, resulting in another burden in her mind.

She couldn't keep up with the order after two days as her face became pale and she had a headache.

In the end, Theo took over the next day to let her recover.

This action made Agata shake her head. After all, Theo needed to fight the enemies on the very front, unlike her, who could easily see the entire battlefield from behind and command the group.

This meant Theo needed to keep up with his broad field of vision all the time while thinking about their well-being and other stuff.

She couldn't comprehend what Theo had gone through to have this mental fortitude.

When she asked him about it, Theo simply said, ”I got used to it.”

Theo told her that he had faced the same situation back in Thersland. He gave a few examples, like the monster's stampede, the third school mission, and a few other occasions.
