The image from the Reconnaissance Bird abruptly cut off, and my vision was flooded with a white light, my consciousness blanking out for a moment.
I instinctively clenched my eyelids shut, the corners of my eyes twitching uncontrollably, even shedding a few tears.
'The spell was dispelled? By whom? What happened?' I suddenly regained my senses, and as I opened my eyes again, questions surged in my mind like a tide.
——I can't sit and wait for death.
Knowing this was not the time for pondering, I took immediate action, rushing out of the room in two quick steps.
The Wind Element swirled around me as I tapped the ground with my toes, flying down the corridor straight away, unceremoniously kicking open the door to the room opposite, and shouted without any greeting:
"First Officer! Something major has happened!!"
"Captain!?"
The person resting on the bed instantly jumped up, their panicked voice slightly easing my expression.
