Bastion (Part 1)

Wasting no time, Adam and Silvana began preparations to pass Elemental Circle.

To do so, he traveled to Fort Norton, enduring severe shock, fire, cold, and powerful wind currents, as well as deep immersion for long periods.

This was not Elemental Circle, but only preparation for it, for the training that could make Phantom stronger was not something simple.

Splash. 

Adam swam out of the water, reaching the edge with a heavy sigh. He took a moment to recover, then lifted his head, meeting Silvana's gaze.

"Did I pass?" Adam asked with hope in his voice.

Silvana nodded.

"Thirty-three minutes. I'm sure you could have done better if you took this training more seriously, but it's enough." Silvana said in a calm voice, turning off the timer.

Adam shrugged his shoulders.
