One day before going for the ancient secret realm opening, Ely went to the sacred ground to perform her usual monthly ritual.
She descended the Sacred Mountain alone at dusk. Her disciples secured the surrounding area to ensure there was no disturbance from outside. The forest dwellers were also forbidden to make any noises at dusk during the monthly sacred rite ritual.
"Can I come with you to the sacred ground?" Yuuki tugged at the hem of Ely's sleeve.
"We can try, but I can't guarantee you can enter the sacred ground." Ely didn't mind.
Though... She invited her disciples to go with her to the sacred ground in the past, but everyone was thrown out.
The reason why Ely was the only one who could enter there was still a mystery, but her disciples believed they were still not ready to enter the sacred ground.
"That sounds good to me." Yuuki gulped her saliva as she stared at the sacred cave before her.
