Chapter 662: Game of Cauldrons

Shrine of Eternal Sands…

Kent's eyes fluttered open, greeted by the warm glow of the sun filtering through the tall, crystalline trees surrounding the garden. 

The air hummed with the faint resonance of ancient magic, and a gentle breeze carried the scent of blooming Azura flowers that bordered the shrine. For the first time in weeks, Kent felt the weight of exhaustion lift, leaving behind a great strength simmering beneath his skin.

He sat up slowly, his muscles aching but responsive. The soft fabric of the bed brushed against his hands as he steadied himself, feeling the firmness of the ground beneath his bare feet. A faint scarlet light flickered from his fingertips, a remnant of his healing aura.

The shrine of eternal sands stood silent before him, its towering walls rising into the azure sky. Kent exhaled softly, allowing the tranquility of the garden to settle into his bones.
