Noa said and delivered.
Just as echoes from his words faded into existence, the kitchen noticeably vibrated.
It shook once. Twice. Thrice.
Thankfully, Mia and Yun Qiqi were ready for this.
They caught the plates before they fell, saving them from certain doom.
"Good job," Noa commented on the side.
His concentration remained unbroken, feeling the gap in two dimensions and connecting them silently.
Just then—
When the shaking stopped, a familiar rift emerged into the room.
It was no different from any other portal Noa had created so far, and bypassing the twenty-four-hour cooldown was as easy as breathing.
But it was Evan's first time seeing Noa manifest a portal.
It just appeared out of thin air and expanded without making a single noise.
"So," Noa asked, bumping shoulders with him. "What do you think? It's… cool, right?"
The man nodded at first.
He seemed too fascinated to speak, his eyes not even blinking.
