"Where else?" He turned his head back, a small smile curling on his lips. "We are heading toward our training spot~."
And as those words left his mouth, the shadows of the forest faded as their ragtag group of four emerged into a wide clearing...!
A sudden burst of light pierced through the dense canopy of the forest—blinding them!
"W-wha—!"
"Ah—!"
"Ugh...!"
Anastasia, Bella, and Martha winced at the same time; their eyes were assaulted by the strong light...!
They quickly raised their hands to shield their eyes! However, the harsh sunlight poured down without mercy, momentarily disorienting them...!
But... their vision began to adjust to the sudden change in brightness, allowing them to finally see what lay behind the shining light...
And their eyes widened.
