As the lights dimmed, an oval portal appeared silently, a twisted swarm of colors exposed within.
From there, a petite girl almost as tall as Bella walked out, dressed in a gothic princess style with her hair split into two high buns, one being white and the other black.
Shifting shadows of leopards, one chasing after the other, kept shuttling on the surface of
her gray princess dress.
Hiro watched this scene play out, and judging by Bella's reaction, it was apparent that she couldn't see any holographic screens with system prompts.
After confirming that fact, Hiro withdrew his attention from her constellation. Looking at the decreased volume of the river of faith energy, Hiro felt a pain in his heart.
However, he quickly pushed that negative energy away. Even if he suffered a loss this time, he figured it was worth it for one of his few friends.
