The moment Rin crossed through the strange path, everything disappeared.
The darkness. The enormous creature. The countless forgotten souls beneath the world.
Even Kaelith's hand vanished from his. For one terrifying second, Rin was completely alone.
Then—
BANG!
He hit the ground. Rin gasped and rolled onto his side.
"Rin!"
Kaelith landed nearby. He immediately pushed himself up and looked around.
"Are you hurt?"
Rin shook his head.
"No."
Kaelith reached for him anyway, checking his arms and shoulders before finally letting him go.
Rin looked around. They were back in the underground chamber.
But something had changed. The thirteen doors were gone.
The ancient symbols had disappeared.
The walls were covered in cracks.
And the group—
Lucien, Kaan, Sol, and the other Divine Knights—
were standing several meters away.
Sol was the first to notice them.
"Rin!"
