Korius almost shot up at the clang of the tray and Kiana's shouting. He groaned as his joints strained him. "Thanks..." Korius had no idea what to say to Kiana. However, he voraciously consumed his meal and gulped them down. After consuming half of his meal, Korius sort of stared down into his food and sighed, "So how is your training going? I can already feel a much higher Majicka volume within you. My senses have heightened close to what they used to be back when I was with the Knights. However, I'd be lying if I said I'm still not afraid of my power. I really hope we find Soria soon. If we end up finding her last, there's a good chance I'd end up being the one to kill you all."
Bo, Mo, Vo, Ferdande and Hajime met in the kitchen as the meals were nearing completion. Ferdande was the first to speak up, "Drevo needs more time to at least get the stance down. It is taking longer than I thought, and I just need that extra day." Mo nodded in agreement, "I'll also need the extra day to train Talin. He has great power, much stronger than my own, but he can't even touch 5% of that. If he can't control himself, he'll end up as the next Chronin incarnate, and we'll have to kill him." Bo just kind of nodded. "Lady Kiana's doing fine with my training, but I guess that's expected for magic-users. The group IS in a hurry, though, and we all know what the Guardians have planned in the shadows. If THAT happens, it's the end of Gaia, end of story. Perhaps we can at least lend them some horses and carriages to make it faster if we keep them here longer." Hajime nodded with agreement with Bo but snapped at him at the mention of horses and carriages, "You know damn well why we can't do that. Hunters and loyalists are rampant anywhere and everywhere, regardless if their Lord Guardians are dead or alive. If they travel like such, they'd be easy targets. Their in a constant state of fighting all the time, they don't need extra baggage." Vo cut in quickly, "Unfortunately, they need to be trained properly, or else it will end with their next battle with the Guardians. We need to alot them one more day. Especially the white one. He's been very lazy and acting like a child."
