The next day, Zoey was still dealing with the revelation that she was some kind of rare resource that the noble houses would fight over to possess. She was not very happy with the thought. She decided that the first this she had to do was get stronger. If she got to rank 4 with her magic, she would be able to go after the creature whose blood could hide the face that she had a Harmonic Heritage.

Nito had said that this creature was a rare rank 4 bird species that lived on high cliffs. There was a variety of terrain and biomes within the Exile Frontier, so Nito assured her she would be able to find even a rare rank 4 somewhere in the vast wilderness.

For her immediate concern of getting stronger, Nito was able to give her the general locations of nearby areas that contained cold and dark element creatures that matched her elemental affinity. Nito was not much of a hunter, so he was heading out on his own to scavenge and forage as he normally did during the day.

Zoey took a moment after Nito left to gather her thoughts and sharpen her mindset. She had seen yesterday that her sync rate had fallen. She focused her thoughts of the simple concept of survival, bringing her mind back to what had let her come this far. She had to, wanted to survive. She was a survivor. After she felt that her mindset was set properly, she checked her interface again.

[TRIAD ALIGNMENT

HERITAGE| Dark Star Runic Heritage: Tier Unknown | Gaia Human: Tier 3 Harmonic

MINDSET| Survivor: Synchronization: 97%

ELEMENTAL AFFINITY| Cold: Harmonization 25% | Dark: Harmonization 15% | Unknown: Harmonization 2% ]

Her mindset sync had risen to 97% and everything else had remained unchanged. She was pleased at the outcome. After checking her gear and equipment, Zoey decided to make a wardrobe change. Her poncho had originally been manufactured with the same nano weave that her other clothing had been making it resistant to all types of physical damage. But she wanted to change it to a more common cloth such as cotton or canvas that was found on this world. Her reason was twofold. When she had been attacked by the man in black, she could have potentially made the fight end a lot quicker had she been able to shoot her 9mm custom from underneath her poncho.

At the time, she did not want to reveal her cards too soon and risk losing the advantage, so she could only leave the gun hidden under her poncho until the man wouldn't notice her bringing it out. This was because if she had fired it from underneath, the nano armor of the poncho would have either stopped the slug completely, or reduced the power to the point where it wouldn't hurt the man. Changing her poncho material to something like cotton would allow her to fire from underneath without revealing her gun, giving her the advantage of an unsuspected, unseen weapon.

It did not take very long for her to create a new poncho with her innate talent, and at the same time replace the flash pellets she had used in the city. The little things sure had come in handy. She kept the nano armor poncho rolled up and attached to her belt. Who knows, she may have a use for it someday. Finally she checked all her gear one last time, making sure everything was good to go.


Finished with her preparation she headed out. She had decided to head to one of the areas that Nito had said was a den for rank 1 and rank 2 magical creatures that had cold elemental affinity. This would be the best opportunity for her to increase her strength, and raise her cold ellement harmonization as well.

Finding her direction, Zoey headed out moving quickly through the trees and brush, leaving barely a trace behind.
