"It's time to go back home."
Cael's voice was quiet, almost tired. The words hung in the air of the hotel room, swallowed by the heavy curtains and the fading evening light.
Now that the selections were complete, it was time for Team Gray and the other teams to leave Arhal City.
The journey back to Everbright Academy would begin soon.
But Cael suddenly recalled something. He had merged two special elements. Frostflame and Golden Flames.
Then he instantly checked his status, eager to see the new special element.
The interface appeared before his eyes, glowing faintly in the dim light.
---
Frostflame [49% Mastery]
Golden Flames [8% Mastery]
---
No new element. Frostflame and Golden Flames sat side by side, separate and unchanged.
His Fusion skill had failed for the first time.
Cael stared at the interface. His brow furrowed. He let out a slow sigh.
'Why did it fail? Didn't it say there was a high probability of creating a new element? Then why?'
