I didn’t have much to pack for this journey from my Luceria room, so I took one of the flying horses from the stables and raided my locker in Mount Zur, as did the rest of my new team. Anjani and Jovi also came with me, to help make sure I didn’t leave anything important or potentially useful behind.

My quarters in the GASP base were the equivalent size of a master bedroom, complete with built-in dressers and en suite shower. I emptied the herb and poisons cabinets in the middle of the floor, leaving Anjani to pick out the most potent elements I’d need against any hostile creatures on Neraka, while I slipped into my favorite combat suit.

It was a beautifully tailored, tight one-piece bodysuit made entirely out of black leather, with soft cotton padding on the inside for my skin to breathe. It covered my arms and legs, and it came with small belts and underlying braces on which I mounted all the protection gear. Each nearly weightless diamond fiber plate was brushed with black crystal powder and protected my shins, calves, arms, forearms, upper back, and chest, with smaller ones for my shoulders, stomach, and lower back. It was a modular system that gave me full mobility without compromising my safety, and I’d spent a couple of nights with Anjani and Corrine to design it and get it produced for all of GASP’s members. I’d had five of these made, with a variety of materials in different colors, each designed for specific weather and terrain conditions. This black one was what I’d casually named “universal”.

I clasped a wide leather belt around my hips, its gold buckle clicking into place. It had eight small pouches sewn onto it, four at the front and four at the back, which I filled with explosive pellets made from concentrated dragon tears, several types of poison, and healing pills. Working with GASP and the Shadian witches had really helped us get the most out of our crystals, herbs, and powders, optimizing the production of powerful poisons and healing potions by mass producing them in pill form.

I mounted my beloved broadsword on the same belt, its bejeweled scabbard glistening under the ceiling lights. It was the one weapon I didn’t wish to change or ever leave behind. My blade had been my loyal companion for so many years. It had endured so many battles, and it had tasted the blood of thousands. We had history, and I loved it to bits. Most importantly, I liked having the prettiest weapon in all of GASP, as no one had thought of mounting priceless jewels on their swords or scabbards. My girl was flashy and deadly, and that was how I wanted her.

“These are for the invisibility spell,” Anjani said, showing me a leather pouch before she placed it on the bench between us, next to my backpack. “Figured it might come in handy.”

“Absolutely! Thank you, Sister.” I smiled and took out two more bodysuits from my locker, folding them neatly and shoving them to the bottom of the same bag.
