The Shadow Cave

After Elara revealed what happened to the owners of the divine weapons, she instructed Chen to rest in preparation for his upcoming training journey.

Chen lay on his bed, looking up and pondering the state of his family in his true world. He wondered about the current events taking place on Earth.

In a dark location, a crack was noticed, and humanoid figures emerged from it, wearing hoodies to conceal their faces. The man in the center spoke,

"After many years, we have returned to this realm. It is time once again to destroy it, as the wielders of the divine weapons are no more, and there is no one left to protect it."

The man's voice was cold, and he spoke with a smug tone while giving orders to those beside him,

"It is time to ravage this place!"

The man in the center shouted, and his companions immediately cheered in delight upon hearing his words.

Meanwhile, in the dimension where Chen was located, he was preparing for his training. Elara called him for the session, and as they walked, Chen and Elara found themselves in a dark forest. Elara stopped at an extremely dark cave, looked at Chen, and said,

"Here is where you will train, Chen. This cave is called the Shadow Cave."

Chen was taken aback and became serious. He gazed at the pitch-black cave where nothing could be seen.
