"Hey, you must be kidding me! Why is it like this?" Cemal ranted as he found himself locked in the men's prison, far away from Ravyn. He had asked to be imprisoned alongside her so he could use his Reiki to heal her, but he never anticipated getting framed by Angus. "Quit yelling, brother. You're being very noisy." Kalyan, locked in a cage next door, shouted, blocking his ears in annoyance. "Hey, warden! This is not a trivial matter. I have to go save Ravyn. Time is running out for her." Ignoring Kalyan's plea, Cemal kept shouting to the guards, and then... "Please, let me out! Oh, mighty Second Prince, why are you so cruel, my crazy friend!.. Hey, handsome warden. Hey, listen to me!" Attempts to gain attention and create chaos in the prison went on for a while longer. ####### Meanwhile, at Gentle

At the same time, it was a warm night in Themeise... A gentle breeze caressed Sekai's face as she sat in a quiet corner of a rooftop bar, gazing at the city's skyline. The buildings here lacked the grandeur and vibrancy of a metropolis, but the bustling streets with their colorful lights, music pouring out of clubs, and various food stalls lining the sidewalks still made it feel unfamiliar compared to her hometown she had left behind. "If you weren't solely focused on winning the selection, then why did you bother coming back?" Angus inquired, taking a sip of wine amidst the serene atmosphere of the rooftop bar, with soft music playing in the background. After returning and preparing for their assigned operation, he decided to have a private dinner with Sekai, his partner in the Triquest qualification. "My country receives support from multiple charities, and my potential as a representative in this

Ravyn returned to the hospital to get her results for a compatible hearing aid prescription and was reunited with one of the nurses who had cared for her during her stay. "It's like witnessing a miracle! I'm so glad to see you walking again so quickly. When the blue-eyed young man brought you here, we were in desperate need of your blood type. The doctor was almost ready to give up on your case.." The nurse paused for a moment before leaning in to share a secret with Ravyn. "..Luckily, he had the same blood type and volunteered to donate, even though his blood sample came back weak, almost like anemia. But it turned out to be good enough.." The emergency blood donation was not thoroughly examined, and the doctor was unaware that Jae had experienced mild ischemia from a heated fight in Solitaire Bower before arriving. Despite the potential risks involved, Jae's decision to save Ravyn's life could be c

The night of Operation Sun Dog passed swiftly, like a fleeting illusion. Amidst the unfolding events, Team D assumed undercover roles as wealthy patrons at Treacher Casino. An incident arose when Tim and Twar caught a dealer cheating, leading to the emergence of hostile gang members. Among them was Krittin, one of Donkey's new executives, a 'Densimorph' Lost Wisdom user capable of altering his density. Reports suggest Krittin's combat-induced muscle mass surged dramatically, estimated to be over a hundredfold. A single blow from him deformed an Airtech shield instantly, with the intent to kill a target in an eye's blink. Tim and Twar brothers teamed up for a fierce skirmish, with Mirozlav joining in and using his swordsmanship. However, Krittin's sheer physical might rendered Mirozlav's strikes nearly ineffective, making his blade vulnerable to damage. Feibur managed the encroaching thugs, preventing disruption of the clash. The confrontation between adept cultivators and a supernat
