Capítulo 223: Welcome Home

"Aaaaahhhhh!!!" Celine jolted awake from her sleep, her back drenched in a cold sweat as she looked around in terror.

"Celine, what happened?" Ron woke up, alarmed by her sudden screech. He tried to comfort her but found that her body was trembling and she even seemed to be scared of him.

"NO!" Celine distanced herself from Ron. "Don't come near me."

Ron got up from the bed and walked toward her slowly, his expression that of panic. "Celine, it's me. What happened? Tell me, please."

Celine crouched down on the floor, her back against the wall. She clutched at her hair and shook her head intensely. "No! No! No, stay away from me! You're not Ron! Get away from me!"

Ron's eyebrows creased into a frown. By now, he had realized that Celine must have had a terrible nightmare. But how bad could a nightmare be for a Rank 1 Transcendent to behave in such a way? Celine was almost on the verge of breaking down.
