The water in the well, reflecting the moon, shimmered beautifully.
Three large characters written in Acati script were inscribed beside the well, seemingly the words ‘Moon Well,’ but Rein didn’t recognize the last character.
But, combining it with the design, it probably read ‘Moon Well.’
At this moment, Rein’s feelings were quite mixed.
He had possessed the “Silver Book” for a long time now.
It was the same last time with the amulet.
Every time he touched it, nothing happened, but when Anna touched it, a miraculous transformation would occur.
Who was being underestimated?
Suddenly, Anna’s figure staggered. She clutched her head, appearing to be in great discomfort, which made Rein hurry to support her.
But in that instant, the surrounding scenery changed dramatically!
Rein felt as though he had stepped into a time tunnel. Familiar scenes around him stretched and compressed. Then, in the next second, the scenery became clear again.
However, Rein was taken aback right away!
At this moment, he was greeted by the fragrant air filled with floral scents and a dense, lush forest filled with towering trees and shrubs, interspersed with many vibrant flowers.
Colorful butterflies fluttered and bees circled in figure eights.
The sounds around him included various insects buzzing, bird calls, and the roars of unknown beasts.
This left Rein momentarily dazed; he couldn’t tell if he had been teleported to some unknown forest sanctuary or if this was merely an illusion?
Especially since, at that moment, he was still embracing the slight figure of Anna, exactly as he had been in his room just before, which made it even harder for him to distinguish the reality.
After thinking for a moment, Rein checked his profession panel and found it was still accessible.
Meanwhile, Anna was still bowing her head, her hands clutching her head, displaying an expression of extreme discomfort.
So, Rein gently patted Anna’s back and called out softly, “Anna? Anna?”
Gradually, Anna seemed to feel a bit better.
She first looked up, glanced around, then immediately showed a bewildered and surprised expression. With confused eyes, she looked at Rein and then, as if realizing something, exclaimed, “Rein, where are we?”
Hmm?
From Anna’s expression, it seemed she was seeing the same green forest as he was.
Could it be that they had indeed been teleported to some mystical realm?
And was that Silver Book the gateway to this mystical realm?
What immense power! Rein thought.
Suddenly, Rein was unsure of what to do next.
The current situation had completely exceeded his expectations.
Suddenly, from deep within Rein’s heart, a distant voice seemed to call, “Come… closer… here….”
Rein listened carefully, and he could faintly make out that it was a female voice.
Rein looked at Anna, and they both saw astonishment in each other’s eyes. Rein said, “Anna, did you hear it?”
“Yes! It seems to be calling us over.” Anna nodded and said.
Clearly, both of them heard some kind of summons coming from ahead.
After thinking it over, Rein decided to check it out. Otherwise, just staying put seemed like a fruitless option.
Thus, Rein, leading Anna, slowly walked forward.
It seemed they were headed deeper into the forest, at this moment, the woods grew denser and denser.
Suddenly, the sound of breaking branches erupted, and a huge brown bear appeared in front of them. This bear was over two meters tall and four to five meters long, nearly twice the size of the brown bears Rein had seen in his previous life in Côte d’Ivoire.
Suddenly, it stood up, facing Rein and Anna, and let out a fierce roar!
The deafening sound waves immediately blasted in all directions.
Rein quickly stepped in front of Anna to protect her. Since he had taken off the greatsword after getting home, he wasn’t carrying the Glimmering Greatsword at this moment.
But some things had to be done, weapon or no weapon.
Just as Rein was preparing to wrestle with the huge brown bear, the next second, something unexpected happened.
After roaring, the bear shook its massive head and walked away to the side, gradually disappearing into the dense forest.
Rein and Anna exchanged glances, not quite understanding why the brown bear had suddenly given up on attacking.
After a pause, the two continued walking forward.
Soon after, another unexpected incident occurred.
“Swoosh!”
A dark shadow flashed by not far in front of them!
Rein’s pupils constricted; he saw clearly that it was a huge black panther.
At this moment, the panther was hiding in the dense forest, quietly watching them.
Once again, Rein shielded Anna behind him and began to confront the black panther.

But it wasn’t long before the black panther also mysteriously left.
By now, Rein had some suspicions forming in his mind.
However, he didn’t say anything and continued to lead Anna forward.
After a long while, the two finally saw that deep within the dense forest, there seemed to be a small clearing, and at the center of the clearing, there was a sort of glow emanating.
The two immediately quickened their pace.
As they approached, they saw a well on the clearing. The water in the well reflected the moon, and the surface rippled slightly, looking exactly like the well that appeared on the silver cover.
“How beautiful!” seeing this scene, Anna walked to the edge of the well and couldn’t help but reach out to touch the water.
Suddenly, as Anna’s pale fingers touched the well water, the water rippled violently, shattering their reflections in the water in an instant.
The next second, the surrounding scenery rapidly changed, the trees around them stretched and changed color like dough, and everything around them underwent unpredictable changes.
It was as if Rein and Anna were passing through a wormhole; except for them, everything around turned bizarre and fantastical.
It seemed like a moment, yet also seemed very long.
When they came to their senses again, Rein and Anna found themselves back in their room, with Anna still holding the book with the silver cover.
Only this time, the pattern on the cover had changed back to its original appearance, and the miraculous ‘Moon Well’ was nowhere to be seen.
“Rein, this…” Anna, for a moment, didn’t know what to say.
Rein, however, kept his gaze fixed on the ‘Book of Silver’ in Anna’s hands.
The next second, Rein stretched out his hand, intending to open the ‘Book of Silver’ again, but quickly, his hand stopped mid-air, as Rein recalled the uncomfortable feeling from just a moment ago, which made him shudder.
However, thinking it over, Rein had some guesses, and so, he continued to open the book directly to the second page.
Sure enough, the content inside was completely different from before.
The first line, written in the common language, read: “Congratulations, you have passed the Druid Circle’s Trial of Will.”
