I didn’t know what Ren was going to push at me but I was interested. I heard a weird sound before he made a pose centering his power and then pushed it out.

I went flying and then woke up a day later with Ren offering me a bowl of rice for breakfast. I smiled and took the bowl.

Couple of days later I had another match with him.

The same result but I was really having fun. It really was enjoyable just not having to think about the grind or money to be made for now. I looked for Azibo and found him farming with the villagers. He told me to keep challenging Ren until I learned the lesson and reminded me not worry because everything he had was mean. I had questions.

Azibo never bothered to tell me what the fuck that lesson was directly or why he even called me here. Elemental Aliens were a weird bunch. All this mystery bullshit and strange head games. Cy was the only Alien I ever met to be straight up and talk like a human. Fuck it. I would figure out.

But, for the moment I was having a fun time. It had been awhile sense I had really felt that sense of relaxing and taking days one at time if ever.

The fights weren’t ever that serious but I had gained a new friend and sense of what the lesson might be.
