As he began chanting a spell, the stone monument quickly began emitting a gentle glow… However, the longer he chanted, the brighter the glow became, until eventually, the entire mountain peak was as bright as a beacon!

Watching wide-eyed as a portal began forming, Gerald snapped out from his amazement when he heard Christos call out, “Everything that happens from this point on will fully be on you, kid! My help ends here, got that?!”

With how serious Christos’s tone was, Gerald nodded respectfully before replying, “Loud and clear! Thank you for all your help, senior Christos!”

Rest assured that Gerald had safely made it past the portal, Christos then began descending the mountain through a well-hidden footpath…
