This...t-this...
Ash's eyes widened as he felt one of his anchors break, the invisible thread that connected him to it snapping like a fragile string. A strange emptiness spread in his chest, followed by a sharp chill that ran down his spine.
For a brief moment, even his breathing halted, as if the world itself froze to mirror his disbelief.
According to the description of his Transcendent Step skill, he could make three anchors that allowed him to mark anything except living beings, and then either instantly teleport to that location or summon the holder of that anchor by channeling its power.
It was a versatile and life-saving ability. Because of that, he had given one anchor to Elysia, another to Eric—the baby unicorn—while keeping the last slot empty, reserved for any unforeseen situation.
But now, one of his anchors had broken, which could only mean that the holder of that anchor was facing a life-or-death situation.
Eric...? But how..?
