Chapter 56: A new stage
In the end, Mi-na and Yunsung had taken advantage of Hwang and his men's presence.
Mi-na, Yunsung and their new ally, Olcadan, had stolen their horses and some of their supplies.
In the morning, while Olcadan was an owl, he flew over their heads while they walked tugging their horses' ropes.
At night, the three of them rode the horses.
Olcadan didn't know anything about where Soul Edge could be, so they stuck to their plan: go to Ling-Sheng Su Temple to meet Edge Master.
Olcadan had already heard about the temple and the master.
"Edge Master is the only person who maybe could beat me", he said proudly when someone mentioned the master. Yunsung thought he was a real pain, but he made Mi-na laugh.
They soon realized Olcadan was, behind his appearance of owl-man and powerful warrior, a kind and good man. Furthermore, he was a lover of nature like Mi-na, despite his problems while being a bird.
All of them enjoyed being together. Olcadan had finally found some help to find and destroy Soul Edge.
Mi-na liked having someone to talk to besides Yunsung, with whom she quarrelled more than talked.
And the boy felt safer having such a great fighter with them.
To top it off, the horses allowed them to travel more quickly without getting tired.
Their journey was in a new stage, which was, undoubtedly, much more comfortable.
