The trip back to the Hybrid City was peaceful and surprisingly quick. The army was moving steadily, with no obstacles in sight—not even a single attack.
Yet, they all knew the Void Serpent was near.
Uravis was fully aware of the situation, but he remained silent, meditating in his Arcanis form. Beside him, Ummi sat catching her breath after moving around too much.
Both of them understood the gravity of the situation. There was no point denying it: life was life, and no one could change its course. Not even the next generation could alter the fact that, after the Ascender Games war, whoever emerged victorious would still have to carry the burden of an uncertain future.
And to add to the weight, the fate of the world rested on their shoulders alone.
It was too much for anyone to bear—even for Uravis.
