-Crunch!!!
In a dense forest, a boy with unkempt white hair and a sword in his hands was moving forward slowly, carefully placing each step.
Every now and then, his foot stepped onto broken branches, producing faint sounds, but he tried his best to avoid even that. He wanted to travel without alerting anyone who might be nearby.
He wore a simple white shirt with a black cardigan, along with black pants and boots. His clothes were new, without any signs of being torn or damaged, which was quite a contrast to his previous look with torn clothes.
And the reason behind this was that he was now able to take things out of his Soul Vault.
Even though his mana pathways were now nonexistent and he could not store anything inside his Soul Vault, since even a very small amount of mana was needed for the skill to activate, he could still enter his Soul Vault and take items out. The only restriction was that he would not be able to store anything back again without mana.
