Pearl was flabbergasted at Alex's speed. He could sense him through his bond, moving toward him at a breakneck pace. He knew Alex was much stronger than him, but this speed was far beyond what he could imagine him producing.
In just less than an hour, Pearl could send more than just sensations through their bond and instead actual feelings. Then an hour later, they could send messages.
"What's happening? Are you hurt? Did they find you?" Alex's worried words came through their bond.
"I'm not hurt or in danger," Pearl answered quickly. "But they did come to attack me. I had to rely on my physical strength to kill them."
Alex fell silent. He knew what it meant for Pearl to use his physical strength. "What are we doing exactly? I should arrive in another half an hour."
"Chasing a bastard," Pearl said. "So I can kill him."
Alex gave no response.
