2.26.1 Dyadic Moon

In front of the academies, there was nothing beside destruction left.

This was the fight of mages against the machines. Knowledge of arcana against the knowledge of science.

And the one that won at the end was science.

"Stop it, we give up!!" Holfaraz, the tower master of Arcana, was the first one to accept his defeat. Although he remained unscathed, the same can't be said about other mages that were below him as well as the countless buildings that were shelled to oblivion.

The losses broke his heart and caused immense anger to bubble up in his heart. But being a mage was being a creature of reason and pragmatism. One should know when to accept defeat.

Not to mention, their enemy brought too much firepower with them and their attack range was far higher than mages as well. So the moment the shield that protected the campus was brought down. So were the mages that were ready to fight, who were suddenly pelted with a nonstop shower of bullets.
