Bab 303: Path of Star Task, Escaping

[My lord, did you enjoy the life in the trial?]

'I sure did.'

Arkhen felt good. It's like he somehow progressed but didn't know in what way.

The feelings, upheaval, sadness, joy, and everything he experienced there was real.

On the other hand, Isabella moved to the 2nd trial, where she would train and power up.

'How many days passed here?'

[One day]

'Oh…'

Arkhen sounded disappointed. He wished more time had passed instead.

…

While Arkhen was tortured, the girls made significant progress in their plan.

In an underground chamber of one of the smaller organizations…

Sierra, Meya, Luna, Sasha, Zoe, and Evelyn sat at a round table in their fancy black outfits with a hood and a veil that hid their faces.

"Did everyone succeed in completing their first milestone of the path of stars?" Sierra asked.

Everyone except Evelyn nodded.
