Where Neron Went

Tension among the nations fizzled out once the news of Stefan's loss and capture got to them.

Apparently, the Eastern Kingdom had been in a showdown with the Fourth Seat of the Nether Cult, and they had emerged victorious—boasting no casualty or damage at the end of their confrontation with the enemy.

Once the nations got the news, relief spread through the people like wildfire.

The tired soldiers were finally able to rest, and the Beastfolks were left with nothing to look forward to. Security was certain among their people, and the only location left to strike was the Nether Cult headquarters itself.

And this was why Jane prepared herself for the important mission.

'I already know the people I'm going to utilise.'

The heroes from each nation, and the most useful personnel on the battlefield—those were the people she was after.

'Elrich is looking after Maria and the Seat member, so we'll leave them on standby. For now, though, the rest of us will have to do.'
