The black magic seemed alive, swimming within the lines of the circle, and the circle itself seemed to "wake up."
What was originally the size of a platter suddenly grew to the height of two people in the blink of an eye, its edges emitting a black glow. Under the peculiar moonlight of the demon realm, it appeared both bewitching and mysterious.
The light flickered continuously, and in the center of the magic circle, a person-tall passageway began to emerge. It was pitch-black, and it was impossible to see what lay beyond.
After a moment, the dark passage began to emit a white light. The white light quickly overtook the darkness, and then it turned transparent.

The magic circle was meant for teleportation, and this clearing was the connection point.
On the other side of the connection point, a scene unfolded that was in sharp contrast to the barren environment here.
