The hall was shrouded in complete darkness, causing panic to ripple through the gathered participants when suddenly the lights flicked back on, revealing a sight that left everyone in stunned disbelief.
Haruto stood in stunned silence, his eyes widened, as he slowly looked down to find himself standing on the sand shores of an Island. It was a golden hour, with the sun setting and painting the sky in a vibrant shade of orange.
Everyone else also stood in stunned silence, the air thick with disbelief. As Haruto slowly looked up, he saw the same stage remained in front of them, with Void standing in the same position. Turning his head back, Haruto saw a big dark forest far behind them, its towering trees and dense leaves heightening the unsettling aura of the forest.
"What the heck?" Esamu whispers, his face a mix of shock and terror, "Did we just teleport?"
