章節 169: Chapter 169: Trial Ground

Aengus emerged from the barrier of Ruination, having learned how to control it after merging with the shard. Though he hadn't gained the power to create one, he could now make the barrier disappear at will.

Standing at the base of the cliff, Aengus took a deep breath, feeling a sense of freedom. His immediate thoughts turned to Aria. Now that his problem had been solved, his priority was to find her and make sure she was safe.

With his soul partially healed, A warm smile spread across his face, a genuine one, perhaps the first in a long while. The emotions of longing and happiness surged within him, bringing a rare moment of peace.

But then, memories of his friends' deaths flashed in his mind. The faces of those he'd lost, the pain of their absence, weighed heavily on his heart. The longing for peace was tempered by the sorrow of the past.

But, He wouldn't forget his goal of growing stronger, seeking revenge, and ensuring the safety of his loved ones.
