Chapter 32: Ch 32 - Trial of... what?
Unlike anything that he had expected to witness—a giant or small crater, the torn apart surface of the earth, the spiderwebbed cracks entangling around the area.
Nothing. He saw nothing of such sorts.
On the contrary, the thing that Kai was looking at, by no means, looked like the ground either.
’What the...’
Baffled and flabbergasted with all kinds of thoughts, he just blankly stared at the "ground" with his widened eyes and loose face.
Amidst the silently fading dust cloud, Kai could see the surface of the ground on which he had stood just a moment ago, completely annihilated.
It looked like a small but complete annihilation of a rough circular area from which cracks spiderwebbed all around, crumbling further in uneven shapes.
The area affected had taken on a slightly darker shade as if it had been influenced by the attack, while the cracks slowly began to emanate vapours of the same golden light rising into the air before dissipating.
However, that wasn’t the reason behind Kai’s expressions at all. Because what he was looking at, was behind that surface. Or rather, inside that surface.
Below the layer of aged and moss-covered cobblestone road, Kai could see a somewhat huge hollow space.
Although it was true that the griffins’ attack had pierced through the ground and created a pit. But neither the attack’s trajectory nor its power was enough to have created such a deep space.
As time slowly went by and the dust cloud began to subside, Kai’s pupil shrank in an instant as an image appeared in his mind.
