Dan casually walked out from the smoke and dust, revealing himself.
"Long time no see, Troy," he said, walking up to the orange-haired boy and offering his hand.
Everyone stared in shock, eyes wide at Dan's dramatic entrance. Among them, Troy, the orange-haired boy, was the most surprised.
"Who the hell are you, and how the hell do you know my name?" Troy barked. Though the blindfold stood out, the changes were more drastic. Compared to before, Dan had grown taller and more muscular. His previously shoulder-length dark hair was now short and white. Similarly, Troy had undergone a drastic change. If not for Dan's ability to sense and differentiate energies, he wouldn't have recognized Troy.
"Huh? Have you forgotten me? It's me, Dan!" Dan beat his chest.
"Mmhm…" Troy shook his head.
