Everyone had gone to sleep, satisfied with their position.
No need to fear any sudden ambush, and no need to worry about the trial anymore.
Most chose to spend their time sleeping inside their tents, as sleeping comfortably without needing to be alert is a luxury they hadn't experienced throughout the entire duration of the trial. But it was not the case with a few others.
Dorian and Layra stayed up late.
One was annoyed by the screaming Snake, while the other was too worried about Kai to sleep.

Both of them were directly behind Layra near the bonfire, so when she saw movements on her periphery, her instincts immediately flared. She turned—and saw a pair of golden eyes emerging from the tree line.
A figure walked out.
Just the sight of this figure alone made Layra's eyes bulge.
She instinctively summoned her intricate bow and took aim, "Matilda!!"
Swoosh—!
