Chapter 65: The Oncoming Trial
He found a quieter section of the lobby's lower tier to sleep.Not a room, the Ascendant Lobby didn't work like the individual rest chambers from the Mortal bracket. There were no sealed doorways with a bed and a table and a full-length mirror.What it had instead were areas, open sections with different functions.Training areas where the sound of practice strikes carried down from upper tiers.Eating areas where food appeared on platforms that lowered themselves on their own. Quieter sections, stone alcoves and half-shielded corners where the light was lower and the noise from above was dampened.Erwin found one of these quiet sections and used it.He slept for ten hours.When he woke up, Einstein was floating in front of his face, approximately three inches away, staring at him."Stop that, don't you ever get bored of doing that." Erwin muttered sleepily, pushing the sphere away."You were mumbling.""People mumble in their sleep.""You were saying numbers."Erwin sat up. Erwin s

"That was precise... Your token is displaying exactly that number and the number of participants present here."Erwin turned slightly to the side and smirked. "We all have our secrets. I wouldn't be explaining anything to you, birdy."He found a low section of wall near the materialization point and sat next to it, resting his back against it.Now that there was nowhere to go and nothing immediately trying to kill him, the actual state of his body was making itself known.His palm itched where the Sanguine Noctis had detonated. The thin slashes had closed, but the skin still gave off a strange vibe when he flexed his fingers.He looked at it for a moment.'Seven thousand, four hundred and twelve.'That number had

The tower notification came mid-morning.Not in a form anyone else could hear—this came through his private system, not through Xyrros's formal tower announcement. It appeared quietly, the way it always did, with the particular cadence of a system that had been watching the entire time and was only now opening its mouth.Special Trial CompleteSurvive and resolve the scenario by any available meansTower rest period is 72 hours.

Chapter 61: Completely Resolved
**Special Trial Complete** The words echoed with the usual Realm X voice. Erwin was on his knees on the chamber floor with the altar's residual light and strong presence fading away. His hand was bleeding from where the Sanguine Noctis had detonated. His palm was crossed with thin slashes that ran from the base of his fingers to his wrist, and the blood that came out was black. For fleeting moments of silence, he stared at it. They all stared quietly. [HP: 3/150] 'I survived... barely.' Erwin sat back on his heels and tried to breathe properly and found that it took more effort than it should have. His ribs had taken Haemagogi's four-arm impact through the gravity barrier. They had not broken, but the damage it had done was impossible to ignore. Turning his gaze from his hands to look at the center of the chamber, Haemagogi was on the floor. All four arms spread, grey-scaled skin crossed with the dark vein-like lines of the drain's completion. His eyes were open and empty a
