492 Prelude To The Calamity [Pt 1]

[Moments Earlier]

~FSHING!~

A bright light surged from the ground beneath all the Otherworlders, instantly sending them away from their respective positions before they even understood what was happening.

In the blink of an eye, all of them—without exception—found themselves in a wood clearing, just a bit on the outskirts of the Capital.

The first reaction of everyone was to look around, dazed and shocked to see their environment change once again.

"H-huh?!"

"T-this is…?"

"Isn't this…?!"

"Why are we here? Where did you guys come from?"

They looked around, recognizing the trees, the clearing they stood on, and most importantly… one another.

The initial look of shock was replaced with sighs of relief.

Everyone was happy to see the faces of their classmates and friends. Just the fact that they were no longer alone in the dark and dreary world of the Dungeon made them nearly leap in delight.
