Maya pointed at Elion with a calm expression. Around him, a group of Archmages and one Grand Mage quietly moved into position.
Elion looked around, and he scoffed. He could not help it. This whole situation was actually funny. To understand how things had reached this point, one would have to go back a few moments.
After leaving the cavern with Maya, Elion quickly discovered that he had been the last one to leave the trial. That was rather surprising, considering he had finished his trials first, but of course, neither of them knew this, and that included him.
