After heading in a bit deeper, I suddenly raised my hand for them to stop after receiving a nod from Su Chen.
He pointed in a direction and I turned to focus in that direction.
I whispered to myself, "Clearer."
I listened carefully with my enhanced hearing and I suddenly winced when I picked up the sound. After that tinge of pain, I said, "Release."
When my hearing returned to normal, I let out a sigh of relief but I also reached my hands up to rub my ears.
Heightening my senses really was different from heightening my abilities.
After all, heightening my abilities would only affect me physically, but heightening my senses affected me mentally.
So it was harder to recover from it than from heightening my physical capabilities.
After recovering, I could see that the kids were looking at me with confused looks, so I said, "The enemy is coming."
