As dawn arrived in the Trial World, Qing Tan stood up from the tree that she was leaning on and lightly stretched her body. 

"Ahh~ what a refreshing night!"

She smiled happily as if a huge burden had been lifted from her shoulders. After that, she spread her awareness to find Feng Qing'er, soon skipping away to meet her.

In her wake, there was a puddle of sludge left on the ground of the forest. Surrounding it was countless stains of black blood littered around, staining the ground, trees, and anything else found in the vicinity. This was the only thing remaining of the Apostle once known as Proto.

"It's been so long, Qing'er should be waiting for me already, right? Why didn't she come find me?" Qing Tan muttered to herself. 

Her body soon melted into a shadow that darted through the forest. Around half an hour later, she finally found what she was looking for.
