Tests

Vonman woke up before his sister.

"What… Am I dead? Was that a dream? Or…"

He saw Guina still unconscious in his arms with a painful look, and he wanted to wake her. But Angor's voice came and stopped him.

"She has yet to finish her test. If you interrupt her now, she'll fail it."

"Test?" Vonman gazed at Angor, who was sitting not far. "That monster, our boat got destroyed, we fell! We died! Those were only tests? You serious?!"

Angor simply gave Vonman a cold look.

Vonman quickly lowered his head and apologized in a small voice. He forgot who he was dealing with.

"I told you before that you'll be expecting a test, didn't I? And you're totally unprepared?"

Vonman didn't respond. He had nothing to oppose Angor anyway.

Gondola almost reached the boundary of Parmigi Highlands. Angor now clearly felt the agitated energy flowing in the air.

"Mister Padt? Shall we wait here?" asked Tulu.
