They could see the door but not what was on the other side.
The door opened up to a sea of darkness. There was no light, reminding them of an abyss.
Firey's heartbeat quickened.
"Master, are we going through that?" she asked tentatively.
"Yes. Just walk right through it." Himmel Soan nodded.
He wasn't surprised at all. The door looked the same as when they opened the portal last time.
Firey had been the one to keep the portal stable, so she didn't notice its appearance. This was her first time seeing it.
"It's dark as hell!" Firey tut-tutted.
"Let's go. It's time to leave." Himmel Soan took her hand and led her forward.
Firey closed her eyes and walked into the portal with Himmel Soan.

In pubs, inns, and streets, people were bustling about. They were all talking about the same thing: the incident in Stelladom Academy.
