In an empty space, a man suddenly appeared—blinking into existence as if from nothing. Upon teleporting, he immediately scanned his surroundings with cautious curiosity.
But instead of feeling relieved by the apparent emptiness, the man only grew more alert. He examined the area carefully: a chamber with walls and floors entirely made of dull, metallic-colored metal.
Driven by curiosity, he tapped his fingers against the surface. A sharp, cold clang echoed through the chamber, sending a chill down his spine for reasons he couldn't explain.
Choosing to stay silent, he remained on guard, bracing for an attack that might come at any moment. Yet, after a long wait, no attack came. Gradually, both his body and mind began to relax.
That man was none other than Clayton. He was still reeling from what he'd just witnessed—an extraordinary feat performed by the mysterious figure from earlier.
