Should I add sites of grace for him or not?

-----------------------------------------------------

Orion (P.O.V)

After looking at my runes and testing my new ability I began making my way down a clear path where a couple of enemies, some pests and dogs, roamed around, as I was killing them, on the corner of my eye I see an elderly women that hold a stave with bells attached to the tips, signaling me to come to her with excitment clear on her face, out of curiosity I comply with her request.

"You, please, I can read them. Your fingers, please, your fingers..." she said with great difficulty as if she was one step on her grave.

'well she is...' I thought looking at her, while giving my hand to her remaining silent.

"ooooh... it seems you are destined to kill a precious one to your heart"

I looked at her with a twisted look on my face and dangerous glint in my eyes, I didn't even know of the face i was making because my thoughts were on totally different direction.

'a precious one to my heart?... who would that be'

"and you are going to have a long road... son of the Abysswalker" She mysteriously said, but she coughed some blood out and continued "... this is new..."

"you know who is my father?" I asked.

she looked at me for a moment and whispered "head to the abandoned cave over there" she pointed at the way with her frail finger "you will find something that will guide you to what you seek"

'I will go there... is my head getting messed up or something, trusting an old woman saying she can read my fingers... well at the same time I have a space where I can store anything and killed a dragon so a seer doesn't seem so out of place here... and what would I lose by going there...'

"I will go there, i will thank you if I find something in there... goodbye"

I started heading the way she pointed at.

20 minutes later ~

I arrived at what seems to be a rift, and in the other side there was a cave, and I would need to jump down there, but there is a long distance, and it may be the cave that woman talked about, so I need to go there.

'jump...' a soft voice that seems to be carried by the wind from a far away place is heard inside my head.

"huh?..."

'I know you won't trust a voice in your head... well i hope not... try punching the rock besides you...'

I look at the rock and stand before it.

I position myself, and prepare to punch the rock.

I inhale a big chunck of oxygen.

I punch at the center of the boulder and as my hand was making it's way toward it, the air was cut, my punch made contact with the rock.

and well... nothing happened as I was going to say somthing I heard some cracking noise and the boulder became dust, and behind it you can see the grund was damaged too with some cracks.

'just like the punch you did now... use that but you need to put your strenght on your legs... goodbye for now...'

"who are you?..." I asked out loud.

'...' silence.

'Thank you' I said in my head.

I looked at the edge and took some steps back. after that I took a print and jumped with all I had.

'It seems I miscalculated' I thought with a nervous chuckle.

I saw that I was going up too much, and by the time I was going down I made it halfway there.

I collided with the wall with my hands and legs first, and began to go down, with them inside the wall, and it hurt like hell.

After making it down, I look at my hand and see it with alort of blood but no injury.

'I have regeneration too huh... neat'

Fortunately, I took my gauntlets off to punch the boulder and jumping.

I put them on and before entering i cut a branch that was sticking out, put a cloth a around it and sprayed some oil on it and turned it on with some sparks.

I began making my way down the cave and I found a water source but it was infected with rot, I jumped from safe spot to another and continued down that path.

I killed some rats, and some humanoid monsters that may have been humans before.

I had an encounter with a giant plant and her kids killed them and colleced what I can use from them before they disintegrated.

I arrived to an open space with some light on it and what seems to be a knight attacked me with a spear from my left side, I blocked it with the torch that was in my hand but it was broken in half, fortunately, the attack was deflected.

As fast as I can, I got my dagger out and attack with a slash, but he jumped backwards, and I dashed at him attacking relentlessly, he dogded some but some of my attacks were critical, and one attack on the right side of his abdomen got him to his knees, as I was going to finish him I sensed an attack that was coming from behind me at blinding speed and the one before me lunged at me with the tip of his spear directed to my heart, I deviated the spear with my dagger making it slide on the left side of the dagger it sliced my cheek and passed behind me, just as it passed me I slid behind the spear wielder with my katana protecting my back and deflecting the weapon that was coming from behind, and beheaded the spear wielder, now facing another one but this one have sickle I threw my dagger not waiting for it to collide with him I dashed at him as he blocked it I used some magic on my katana it lit up with a blue light and slashed at him cutting him in half from right shoulder to the left side of his hip, i blood gushed out and some organs spilled out, the ease at which i cut him surprised me.

'...wow...'

I cleaned the blade by sliding it's two sides on my gauntlets and put it in the scabbard.

as I looked around I found a golden scarab I put it in my inventory i will call it that from now on maybe it will be useful in the future.

'Now where is what I came here for....'
