Gareth found himself falling from the sky after activating the secret teleportation channel he'd set up in advance to escape.
He did not know what would happen to Axel, but he had no choice but to trust that nothing bad would happen and that the demon would come out of the predicament unharmed.
But for now, he had to shift his focus back to his own troublesome situation; the teleportation circle had worked, and he, like everyone else, had thankfully escaped in time.
His eyes darted around as fast as possible, looking for the others, whether they were already down on the ground or mid-motion falling, but he found no one down.
Gareth hurriedly twisted his body, looked up, and immediately saw the others falling one by one through a small black magical circle in the sky. It seemed that, apart from him, everyone else had lost consciousness from the stress of the long-distance teleportation that ran through a spatial path directly beside human lands.
