Chris woke up from the trial and opened his eyes. He took a deep breath, feeling the rush of excitement flooded his body. "I did it!" he shouted, his voice filled with joy.
He had finally awakened and now, he was no longer a weakling, no longer just a nobody.
But something felt off as no one reacted to his excitement. He looked around and saw Baret and Gare, their faces frozen in shock. Their eyes were wide, filled with terror, as if they had just seen something unimaginable.
Confused, Chris followed their gaze, and his body instantly froze. His heart pounded as his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
In the distance, Ramos was struggling to hold up a shield, his face pale and drenched in sweat. The air around Kael was twisting and warping, filled with terrifying dark energy that seemed to devour everything.
Ramos was screaming, his voice cracking in panic. "Just what the fuck is this bastard doing?!" he yelled, his hands trembling as he tried to contain the chaos.
