Envi's POV:
As I stepped into the teleportation portal that would lead me back to Earth, an unshakable unease weighed heavily on my heart. A thousand thoughts raced through my mind, all leading back to one place—Aetheria, where my comrades and Nao fought tooth and nail.
Ever since I glimpsed that vision in the [Trial of Sacrifice], dread had consumed me. The sight of my comrades… broken, bloodied, battling for survival... it haunted me like a shadow I could never escape.
Lyra and Serena—were clashing with the ruthless Mercenary Kingdom of Gildoria and Norx the Demon Rank 5.
Freya, Marius, Julius, Luna, Leopold, and even the Blackmore Patriarch were locked in a war of attrition against the forces of the Abyss itself—the Demon Horde.
And then... there was Amelia.
Her image scorched my mind, then the brave Headmistress Arsene, the mighty King Aslan, and the stalwart Sir Godfrey—all lying grievously wounded. Struggling against the nightmarish might of the Number One Demon Warlord.
