Ascending & Descending

Eva stepped out of the vortex in Evie's disguise. However, she was surprised when she realized she was sent out of the secret realm, just like Ace. 

"Took you long enough." Ace's figure suddenly appeared before her as he gently greeted her. 

Eva's eyes lit up, and without hesitation, she pounced in his arms and tightly hugged him, "I'm glad you're fine." 

Ace felt warmth from her tender words, but at this moment, Ace suddenly felt something was different about Eva, and he knew it had something to do with the delay. Furthermore, he could feel her aura started to change; it was as if she was suddenly becoming one with the laws. 

However, before he could ask her, the system voice suddenly rang in his head.
