"T-Training...?"
After a few seconds of pause, Aster's mind began turning once more, though that didn't stop him from feeling utterly confused.
[Huh? Oh, it looks like my time's almost up. That was fast.]
The Goddess Michelle glanced at her hand, which was slowly fading away.
[You must have a lot of questions, but I can't answer them all. Instead, this child here will clear your doubts.]
With her words, a portal appeared a few meters before Aster. Unlike the murky black dungeon portals, this one radiated pure white light.

Aster watched as a figure emerged from within it. As the portal's brightness faded, he quickly assessed the newcomer.
A head of pink bob-cut hair, large red eyes, small lips, and puffy cheeks. Clad in armor that covered only the vital parts, she looked fierce. However, her height—barely reaching 1.2 meters—made that impression difficult to sustain.
