An Extra’s POV

"U-urgh…"

Aurora felt a sharp sensation in her head as she woke up in a flowery expanse.

The place was lit by fire-fly like sources of light that floated all around the garden that seemed to exist in a cave.

'We're back here…?' Aurora's thoughts trailed as she looked around.

She could see her sisters still asleep. There were twelve of them in total.

'What happened back then? What did the humans do? My memory is fuzzy…'

The last thing she remembered was the exchange of goods with the humans, and then they went their separate ways.

'Did we get attacked on our way back? Was it a Dragon?' No, if that was the case, they would already be dead.

Besides, Aurora still had the pouch which contained the Spatial Rings in her possession. All the items were secure, and her twelve sisters were safe.

A Dragon would not show that sort of mercy.

'This place is accursed. We shouldn't have come here, to begin with!' Aurora chastised herself as she rose to her feet.

Still, they had no choice thanks to their desperation.

'Now that we have recieved these Items, we can return to our home.'

Aurora stole one final glance at her sisters and felt a surge of bliss. It had been a long, ardous, and frustrating journey, but they were finally done with their mission.

A subtle feeling within her told her she was forgetting something, but Aurora could hardly notice it. Not while her heart raced and she remembered the sisters who were busy fighting against the scourge of the world.

'Wait for me, everyone!' Aurora clenched her fist in resolve and smiled with sheer determination.

'I'm coming back!'

The Otherworlders were busy in their living quarters, all of them enjoying their time off by either moping around or engaging in interesting conversations.

Even Adonis, the training obsessed one, was taking a break. He also urged Trisha and Billy to take the day off. As a result, all nine of the Otherworlders were in their residence when a neck came from the door.
