Nao's POV:
The true [Trial of Sacrifice] had finally commenced. Envi and I had divided our duties—he was to rescue Nana, my sister on Earth, while I faced the daunting task of confronting two Unique Monsters wreaking havoc in Cosmoria, the realm of the gods.
As I stepped into the transport portal leading to Cosmoria, my mind was anything but calm.
"Master Nao, your thoughts are restless," Runa's voice echoed within me, her presence manifesting as mana through telepathy.
"I'm...worried about my sister, Nana. The Outer God is attempting to alter fate and kill her. I'm also concerned for my comrades battling demons in Aetheria," I confessed, clenching my fists.
"Please, master, trust in Envi—that foolish system seems reliable," Runa replied with conviction.
"Moreover, we will defeat the monster in Cosmoria swiftly and proceed to Aetheria!" Her optimism was infectious.
Her words brought a smile to my face.
"You're right, Runa...thank you."
