Fleeing [1]
Damien stared at the talisman in his hand as a sense of trepidation entered his heart and took root. Every time he tried to inject it with mana, it would flash and spark, but show no result in the end.
What was the cause of this? What was going on? There was no way Tian Yang would give him a faulty talisman, and even if he did, there's no way he'd do the same with Ruyue.
Panic had already begun to set in even though it had only been a few seconds since he first started fiddling with the talismans and a terrifying idea sprouted in his mind.
There wasn't time, he had to test it. Grabbing Ruyue's arm, Damien spread his awareness until he could feel the surface and willed the mana around him to invoke teleportation.
And soon, they disappeared from where they stood.
And reappeared only 5 meters away, still within the confines of the private room. Damien gritted his teeth, a flash of worry flashing through his eyes.
