章節 83: Awakening

Rui opened his eyes, groggy and disoriented. As his vision proceeded to unblur itself, a white ceiling came into view.

"An unfamiliar ceiling." Rui muttered, taking the opportunity to utter a common trope he heard in anime, before chuckling. His head throbbed as he got up, struggling to remember what happened.

('And then I woke up here... I see. We failed, and miserably too.') He chuckled self-deprecatingly. Although he knew the chances of success were low, it still wasn't a pleasant outcome.
