"Listen... Elene, thanks for your concerns at all, but you really should be going, it's going to be starting soon." He turned his attention to the door.
"Huh? I don't understand, what's going to be starting soon?"
This was the exact moment he was waiting for.
The event he trained and developed his new technique for, his survival hinged on this very moment.
He closed his eyes, then took a deep breath.
After a few seconds, his eyes shot open with intent. "Here it comes."
Almost immediately, a blinding light flashed through the sky and shook even the association itself.
Elene was knocked off balance by the shockwave that smashed through the walls. "What was that!?"
She stood to her feet immediately and rushed over to the broken walls and there it was.
"W—What is that..." Her eyes shot open in disbelief.
At a distance, it was visible even from the Soul-Hunter's association.
It was an Orange gate.
