A recurring dream from a fateful night haunts Varian. With a past he couldn't forgive himself for and a future he abandoned, his life in the present is in tatters. But when you're alive, there's hope. The hope comes one day in an unexpected form. The painful past, the meaningless dream and the unexpected way forward force him to make a choice. Stay broken and remain in the sorrow of the past he couldn't change. Or. Pick himself back together and try for one last time, to find the truth about his own dream and its connection to his unforgivable past, all in the hopes of forgiveness of himself, by himself. https://discord.gg/kBKaTtsrpb
The seventh trial was called "House of Ghosts".
The teams would have to reach a gate to enter the next trial. But between them and the gate would be bloodthirsty beasts.
So far so good.
But the trick lay in the fact that new beasts would form from the negative emotions the contestants felt.
Anger, fear, worry, panic, and others would lead to create new beasts and make it harder for the trial to be cleared.
If things get out of hand, then the beasts could defeat the contestants and they'd fail the trial.
Of course, using psychic power to forcibly control emotions was prohibited.
"Phew~ Clear your mind, enter the state of flow and fight," Prince Shak said to Sovereign Alban who nodded calmly.
They were standing at the entrance of a valley filled with monsters ranging from peak level 9 to Sovereign state.
The gate was at the end of the valley and as usual, flying or teleportation to the exit was prohibited.
