Capítulo 386: Chapter 386: The Shadow of Doubt

The journey back from the ancient ruins was marked by an uneasy silence. Although they had destroyed the dark orb and dispelled the immediate threat, the encounter with the shadowy figure lingered in everyone's mind. The memory of the figure's cryptic words and the sheer force of their power left the team with more questions than answers.

Elara, riding at the front of the group, could feel the tension among her companions. The victory felt hollow, as if the true danger had only just begun to reveal itself. The figure's words echoed in her thoughts: *The darkness shall not be so easily vanquished.*

As they neared their base, the landscape became more familiar, but instead of feeling a sense of relief, Elara's unease grew. She couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched, that something dark and malevolent was following them. But every time she turned to look, there was nothing—only the empty road behind them.
