When Azrael regained his senses, he realized that his body was trembling… No! Not just his body, but the entire sand castle was shaking as if it were about to collapse at any moment.
Many of the sky-high sand pillars he had seen when entering the underground area had already collapsed, filling the entire space with thick, rising dust.
Large sections of the walls, ceiling, and other parts of the castle continued to crumble, producing deafening rumbling sounds that echoed throughout the ruins.

"Huh?" At this moment, a voice filled with surprise suddenly reached his ears, and before he could even react, a figure appeared before him.
Azrael was startled and nearly attacked instinctively, but he stopped at the very last second when he realized the person who appeared before him was Elyara.
