One moment, a destructive wave of extraordinarily intense light threatened to destroy them.
The very next moment, however, it was gone.
Negated.
Adaptively evolved.
Supreme Commander Anthea narrowed his eyes while the Martial Sages widened theirs with shock.
Shock and ecstasy.
Not a single one of them failed to recognize him.
"…Rui!" Amare's expression lit up with delight and ecstasy.
"Your Highness…!"
"Dawnbringer…!"
A wave of overwhelming relief and charged emotion bore heavily on the atmosphere.
The air boiled with emotion.
And yet, Rui didn't acknowledge them.
He didn't regard them.
No, his gaze was fixed on one and only one person.
One being.
An ethereal being beyond fathoming.
An ephemeral invisibility left only a faint silhouette
As though his very existence was that of a higher plane beyond their fathoming.
He slowly lowered himself from the sky, gazing down upon Rui with an impenetrable gaze.
