Capítulo 323: Into the Ruin Of Ashenwatch

The dense forest cleared, revealing a large clearing where a shimmering portal stood, its surface swirling with an ethereal silver light. The portal's frame was adorned with ancient runes, glowing faintly in the dim light filtering through the canopy above. The air around it buzzed with a low, resonant hum that set the students' nerves on edge, signaling that this was no ordinary place.

As the group approached, they could see the imposing figures of the Ruin guards stationed on either side of the portal, their crimson armor gleaming in the light. Thalia stepped forward, her demeanor professional and confident. She exchanged a few words with the guards, her tone steady as she provided their identification and mission details.

"Alright, you're clear to enter," one of the guards said, nodding as he stepped aside. "Stay alert in there. Silver-rank Ruins have their own tricks."
