For a few seconds…
I just stared at my own hand.
More specifically— at my finger… no I mean… the Ring.
Right where the faint outline of the proto ring was quietly resting… as if it had always been there.
No glow. No dramatic aura. No music screaming legendary items obtained.
(Wait… actually it has always been there… what the fuck? What am I talking about.)
Well, the proto ring was just… there.
Calm.
Silent.
Suspiciously normal.
Even though it isn't….
"…What," Seorin said slowly beside me, her voice unusually empty, "…was that?"
I turned my head.
Her mouth was slightly open. Eyes frozen. Expression stuck somewhere between shock, confusion, and I'm about to question every life decision that led me here.
Honestly… fair reaction.
Before I could answer—
A new window popped up beside my hand.
