Azrael stirred within his VR capsule, his consciousness gradually returning to the real world.
"Mmph." The moment he regained full awareness, a sharp jolt of pain surged through his left leg, causing him to wince.
"Argh."
The residual agony from the burns he'd sustained in the virtual realm was a harsh reminder of the challenging trial they'd just faced.
'This feels quite painful,' Azrael thought.
As Azrael clenched his teeth and clenched his fist, determined to endure the pain, he could hear the soothing hum of the machinery around him, he endured the pain until it gradually began to subside, numbing his left foot.
The VR capsule was designed for an immersive experience, and the virtual sensations were often eerily realistic.
Outside his capsule, Luna, Hiro, and Theo were already waiting. Concern etched across their faces, they had been anxiously awaiting Azrael's return.
