81 Burial (1/2)

Dean refused to simply think that he was becoming more soft hearted and forced himself to think that he just wanted something to do when he might feel bored.

He guessed that his relatives probably held some treasures and inheritance from the family but he wasn't petty enough to kill them and take those resources.

It was a waste of time to chase after dead people so do something else instead.

Looking up at the sky, it was still bright without a single cloud covering the rays of the sun.

Everywhere and everything was charred to black making Dean lack interest in exploring the area any further.

Thinking what else he could do to pass 3 days, Dean remembered that Ayesha's corpse was still within his Space Ring but had yet to rot.

It still looked fresh but the gruesome sight left him unable to chew on his rations as he recalled the scenes after her death.

He questioned if that was really him who was able to throw out all his morals, common sense and logic into the trash' just to toy and strike fear into the duo.

The guts to commit the act of cannibalism would never cross his mind when he could just simply kill his enemy.

An aftershock of remembering those memories started to take effect as Dean crouched before eventually falling onto the ground while holding his head.

He wanted to cream with all his might but that wouldn't do anything but create trouble if anyone were to take advantage of his weakened state.

Groggily standing up, Dean grabbed a piece of wood and used it to elevate himself until he was comfortable just using his two legs.

His eyes were losing focus but trying to concentrate thinking about the next location helped him clear his thoughts.

Once Dean felt comfortable moving once more he began his journey.

When he was a child, the journey he took to get to the cave was more than 2 days because he had to go in a group and had to go around places.

It was mainly due to those troublesome parts that their carriage had to take such a long journey but now that Dean was alone, he took a shortcut.

He avoided any encounters with any bandits or animals and went around tall structures that could be a hassle to go over and instead went around in tight places.

This alternative path was far quicker and allowed Dean to roughly to make it to the cave in less than 3 hours.

Reminiscent memories started to remind him of the difficulties he once faced.

Taking the normal path when he was a weak child by himself would take many days because he didn't have the guts to use a different path.

Arriving at the cave once more it was covered in much more moss and even the rocks blocking the entrance also had moss.

Remembering the method to enter the interior of the cave, Dean brought out the Blue Orb from within his body.

A bright flash of light blinded him.

It was odd how he rarely used this precious treasure unless it was necessary for storing important items such as that note he received.
