Isaac's body twitched as his hand was forcefully removed from the surface of the boulder.
His eyes opened with a slam, and he felt a cold sweat pouring on his back.
''Wraith!'' He heard an excited shout behind him.
He slowly turned his body around and saw Darth and Iah waiting for him with slight smiles.
''You did it!'' Darth said and patted his shoulder, ''Excellent!''
Isaac sighed and nodded, ''You were successful too, right?''
Darth nodded, but a conflicted look was on his face, ''It wasn't as easy as I thought.''
''What was your fear?'' Isaac asked curiously.
Darth chuckled, ''It seems that my biggest fear is insects.'' He shuddered just from the thought.
He got attacked by hundreds of insects, and he had to use almost all his explosive arrows to kill them.
Isaac bit his lip, trying not to laugh.
''Winterland doesn't even have insects.'' Darth sighed, ''Why did the game decide I would fear insects when I have never seen one?''
Isaac shrugged.
*Clap*
Iah clapped his hands and said with a smile, ''Congratulations to you both for passing. This test was made by Goddess Artemis to test everyone's fear. It is also one of the tests for the upcoming Age of Coming Ceremony, where young men and women who have reached 18 years of age will have to learn a weapon and undergo the Test of Fear.''
Isaac and Darth nodded with slight surprise.
''Since both of you passed. You two will, of course, receive rewards.'' Iah said.
Isaac and Darth looked surprised, but then they saw notifications popping up.

''Fear Disperse?'' Isaac and Darth said in unison.
Iah nodded, ''It is a reward specially chosen by Goddess Artemis; I am sure it will be useful in the future.'' He said mysteriously and turned around to start walking away from the forest.
Isaac and Darth followed behind him out of the forest.
Soon, they entered the courtyard and saw Mona already sitting there with a calm smile.
''It took longer than I expected.'' She said with a gentle smile.
''How long?'' Darth asked with a gulp.
''3 hours.'' She said and looked amused after seeing Darth's face becoming pale.
''3?! We need to leave now!'' Darth shouted with a panic.
''I was about to make food.'' Mona lowered her head in sadness.
''U-Umm...'' Darth scratched his head. He didn't know what to do.
He didn't want her to be sad after being very kind towards them.
But then, Iah patted her head and chuckled, ''Stop teasing them.''
Mona pouted, and her sad look turned into cheerfulness, ''Hehe, just joking.''
Darth chuckled and scratched his cheek, ''Thanks for hospitality, but we need to leave.''
Mona stood up and walked towards Darth to give a small hug.
Darth blushed slightly after receiving a warm hug.
Mona then turned her gaze towards Isaac and hugged him with a shy smile, ''Cutie, good luck in your endeavors!''
Isaac smiled slightly and was about to leave with Darth, but then he remembered one thing.
He looked at Iah and asked, ''Is there a portal, which leads to the World of White?''
Iah nodded and said, ''Remember the building where the Gate to the Moon City is located? The portal is located in that building. Ask for the portal which leads to the World of White.''
Isaac nodded and left the courtyard with Darth.
''Let's run; we must be behind others,'' Darth said urgently and started jogging on the streets.
Isaac ran after him, and with the help of the map, they easily found the route which leads to the luxurious building.
They once again attracted a lot of attention, and some even shouted behind them, but they didn't hear it and soon arrived at the entrance of the building.
Darth was the first one to enter, and Isaac was about to follow behind him, but then he felt a hand on his shoulder.
He turned his head and saw a figure with a veil covering her face. She was carrying a bow on her back, and she looked very lovely with her petite body stature.
Isaac narrowed his eyes and thought that he had seen her somewhere before...
''Yes, may I help you?'' Isaac asked and glanced at the soft-looking hand, which was grabbing his shoulder.
The figure stayed silent until she opened her tiny mouth slightly, ''I have a question...''
''Hmm?'' Isaac had to concentrate harder so he could hear her voice.
''W-Why didn't you sell the statue? It would give wealth beyond your wildest dreams.'' She asked with a quiet tone. Her eyes underneath the veil were looking at Isaac's beautiful face, trying to find any signs of lying.
Isaac was about to answer, but then he felt a hand grabbing his arm. He got dragged inside the building and finally saw the person who was dragging him.
''We need to hurry!'' Darth said urgently. Not noticing the figure with a veil, like she was invisible.
Isaac nodded and looked towards the figure with veil, ''I didn't want to! Simple as that!''
He answered without even thinking that the unknown figure asking about the statue was strange.
The figure with a veil looked shocked for a moment. She watched the retreating back of Isaac until he and Darth were completely gone from her sight.
''Just because you didn't want to...'' She murmured and a slight smile appeared on her heavenly face, ''I see...''
Some distance away.
Selena looked surprised to see the figure of a veil talking with Isaac.
'Why is she talking with him....' She pondered, but then she saw the figure with a veil walking away without leaving any traces behind.
