Finn gulped, patting his backpack, but he didn't really leave the barrier just yet. He just felt there was still more preparation he could do.
"You're still here? So dramatic," Pang mumbled at the side, sitting on the small and comfortable rocking chair Tumble made for him. "You're stalling, aren't you?"
"I'm not!" he said, raising the map up high to show he was planning, not procrastinating.
He needed to make sure his stocks and supplies would last the entire trip!
Anyway, according to the map, the Eastern dungeon would take a few days on foot, though Pang said it'd be much faster for him as an Awakened.
That said, since he had been awakened, he had indeed felt the difference. Even if he did much heavier tasks and took on more monsters, his stamina would barely be nipped compared to how it was in the previous level. He was excited to know how it would be now that he had upgraded to Tier 2.
