I thought the path would be shorter since the exit is in sight but I was wrong since it was actually an optical illusion to my eyes. I didn't know it until I soon realized that due to the angle I was in, the exit appeared to be close when in reality, it would be a bit farther than it should have been and that is the real thing as of now, we are still climbing and the proclaimed exit that looked like it was near still looked near but we are walking for hours already.
"Wow, I never thought it would be this far, Bladeheart. I thought we are almost there."
I didn't respond to him. To be honest, I feel annoyed already and if possible, I wouldn't bother to care what he wanted to tell me. I am focusing all of my attention on the exit just to make myself feel a little bit better and not to lash out in annoyance. I might sound like a jerk right now but if you are with someone like Guts for a whole day and endured all his behavior and babbling, you would also feel the same way.
