Welcome to the Peace, Ladies~!

/Selene? Can you hear me? Selene?/

/..../

/Aria? Aria? Can you hear me? Aria!!!/

/..../

Panic began to rise within Victor as he desperately tried to reach out.

The telepathic connection was still active, but for some inexplicable reason, there was no response.

His heart raced, and his breaths grew shallow... With no available option,

/Helena?/

/..../

/Helena... Can you hear me? It's me, Aether... I'm telepathically reaching out to you... Are you there?/

/.... A... Aether?/

A wave of relief washed over Victor as Helena's voice finally echoed in his mind. He let out a long, exhausted breath and slumped beside Ashara, his legs feeling like they were made of lead.

The sheer tension of the moment had drained him, and he leaned his head against her shoulder, his body trembling slightly from the adrenaline crash.
