Phew!
It's over, finally over.
The three of them sat on the ground, letting out a breath of relief.
"Time to return in 3, 2, 1."
The light shone once again, and the figures of the three disappeared from their original spot.
When Fang Hao reappeared, he was back in his own territory.
He opened the Book of Lords and contacted the other two.
Upon learning that they had all returned safely to their own territories, he relaxed.
"Master." Eira emerged from the Stone Tower of the Lord's Manor, spotted Fang Hao, and paused in surprise.
She didn't know when he had returned.
"Yes, Eira, I'm a bit hungry. Prepare something for lunch. Oh right, have someone prepare bathwater too."
"Alright."
During the trial, time didn't exactly stand still, but it certainly moved at a different pace.
The battle in Elenha Village took about seven or eight hours, and they eliminated hundreds of rotten corpses.
But upon their return, it was just past noon, only three or four hours had passed.
