44 Chapter 44: Success or Failure The question came from within the tree, as if the tree itself was alive. Yet no life could be felt from within. At the same time, Raven also heard some movements around him, as the occasional rustling of winds intensified, as if there was something around that couldn't be seen. He could also feel as if multiple eyes were watching him. He observed his surroundings. Sometimes, it felt real. While other times, it felt like it was his misconception. The only…

As he delved deeper, the atmosphere grew more oppressive, and an eerie stillness enveloped the surroundings. The screeches of the Nightmare Beasts became distant, until they completely disappeared.

However, before he could attack, he heard footsteps coming from behind him which caught both their attention. Startled, Raven realized that a group of people was approaching, not just one person.

Raven's rejection caught the dark-haired boy off guard, as he had not anticipated such a response. To him, Raven was a newcomer, barely surviving the Bloodline Trial and experiencing the harsh realities of the outside world.
