Just as the massive black spire unleashed a blinding blue light that engulfed the entire expanse, Atticus's form immediately tensed.
He was able to react faster than everyone. Putting his hand on his Katana hilt, he got completely alert and ready to respond to anything that might be coming.
"Won't these guys let us rest! It's just the first day!" Nate suddenly exclaimed while bringing out his broadsword.
Everyone let out low grunts, all of them voicing their dissatisfaction. They were all truly tired and exhausted, having gone through a lot in just one day.
But even then, all the youths in the expanse all got tensed and battle-ready for anything that might pop up. Although many were exhausted, they were all still ready to put on a fight.
But after waiting for a few seconds, nothing happened.
'Hm?' Atticus thought as he scanned around the expanse checking to see if they had missed something.
