An Extra’s POV

Chapter 457

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

That statement, or quote, could not have been truer for the Adventurers who marched forward, unaware of their fate.

The man who led them, Guildmaster Richard, stood at the forefront of the entire group, with the rest of the Heroic Rank Adventurers a step or two behind him.

Everyone else carefully moved in accordance to the ones who led them—like sheep, lambs to the slaughter. Their measured movements meant nothing.

The moment the Guildmaster placed one of his legs on the stairs, making the first attempt to ascend… everything changed.

~VWUUUSSHH!~

That single step forward caused a torrent of energy to instantly engulf the room, and a massive Magic Circle, unlike anything the world had ever seen before, instantly shone from below the unsuspecting Adventurers.

All of this happened in a mere instant that no one had any chance to react.

Before their bodies could fully comprehend the surge of energy, or their eyes fully capture the intricate patterns of the giant Magic Circle, it was too late.

~SHIIINGGG!~

The bright purple light that glowed from the complicated lines and drawings in the formulae burned bright, drowning everything within the room in its power.

Just from that single step, every single soul in the area was affected, and their bodies all vanished at once.

Their journeys, to whatever destination that the light took them, was all started by the Guildmaster's step.

And, in a twisted way to keep the poetic statement true, the old man has also vanished as well.

Everyone was gone.

Well… almost everyone. For amidst the remnant mist from the incredible energy that just burst forth, there were two who stood beside each other—completely unaffected by the displacement.
