Elaine sat there in silence as she became less and less herself. While sitting there in silence, Heni and Raon had arrived at the elven forest. At the moment, they were looking at Elaine who was sleeping soundly. However, to Raon and Heni, it looked more like she was in pain. Raon gently held her hand and asked Heni, "Do you have any clue what might have caused this?"
"I already told you, she--"
"I know what you told me, however, we both know these symptoms wouldn't appear due to exposure to UV rays."
"..."
"So? Do you have any clue?"
"Sigh! Unfortunately, I do have a clue. It's a trial, a trial by reality."
"I'm not sure if I follow."
"Reality gives trials to people inside the 6th tier. These trials are meant to harden your heart and help you improve on your path of improvement. Although these are trials, you can fail them. In the event of failure, death is certain."
"Are we able to help her in any way?"
