When three teleportation portals opened outside the fortress, the return of Velen and his party immediately drew attention.
"They're back already?"
"Who else but Velen would squander Spatial Portals like this? What a prodigal…"
Sensing their presence, Anastasia instantly interrupted her meditation and hurried over.
She hadn't been able to join the raid, but she was definitely curious about what kind of loot they had scored this time.
In front of Bunny's cabin.
"Bunny, even though you've obtained an Essence of Power, rapid strength gains can make your foundation unstable. So I've found a special instructor for you," Velen said seriously.
Bunny froze, then smugly glanced at Ironback Centipede.
See that? This is the kind of treatment I get.
Ironback Centipede was, in fact, jealous—who else in the whole fortress ever got this kind of privilege?
"Master, who did you find to train me?"
As soon as the words left Bunny's mouth, the space behind him suddenly tore open.
