Seojun turned to Nayoung and Jinhyu, who were still wide-eyed from what he just said. He looked at them both with a calm but serious face and said, "For now, I want you two to focus on mana training. You need to strengthen your core and learn how to control the mana flowing in your body. If you want to awaken, this is the first step. Don't rush it. Train seriously."
Nayoung gave a firm nod, even though she looked like she was still a little nervous. Jinhyu did the same, clenching his fists slightly like he was preparing himself for a long journey.
After that, Seojun turned away and walked toward the others. "Minseok, Hannah, Yoora—come with me. We're going to the Beast Sanctuary. It's time to start your taming training."
Without another word, he touched the air and a magic circle appeared beneath their feet. In the blink of an eye, they were no longer in the Ethereal Grounds.
