บท 100: Chapter 100: Ancient Puzzle Disassembled.

*Thump* *Thump* *Thump*

The sound of two hearts beating with excitement echoed throughout Xavier and Sophie's ears as they stared at the mechanical cube before them.

"J-Just one more piece..." Xavier muttered.

The cube was 99% completed, just one more pierce needed to be moved in order for it to fully unlock.

"D-Do you want to move the final piece?" Sophie asked.

Xavier nervously shook his head.

"N-No, you can do it..."

It was strange, despite having little to no interest in the cube at the start, now that the puzzle was almost complete, he couldn't help but feel overwhelming joy.

Sophie nervously nodded before grabbing onto the piece with her soft, slim fingers. Once she grabbed a hold of it-

*Clink!*

She pulled it and just like that, with a final click, the cube was unlocked.

"Y-You did it..." Xavier muttered.

"W-We did..." Sophie added with a yawn.
