156 A Bad Turn of Events

Participant number 8, Kye, what is the meaning of this? It wasn't the examiner's voice that came in, but someone far more terrifying. Yes, it was Michael's voice that resounded all over the place, shutting everyone in an instant. Why did you free the phoenixes we captured with so much hardship?

Kye looked intently at him, a shiver running down his back. He still vividly remembered what happened earlier in the day, and it gave him cold sweat.

"I..." Kye looked at Michael, fear clearly visible in his eyes after freeing the last Phoenix.

Michael's piercing gaze seemed to bore into Kye's soul as if searching for answers within him. The room grew tense as everyone awaited Kye's response.
