Preparation

Even though it should be a short mission, it would most likely be a very dangerous one.

After being dismissed by Headmaster Delbrand, everyone went on their separate ways to finish their business before leaving for the mission.

As for Emery, he returned to the Terra Palace to inform the Eastern Sage and the others. 

After thinking about it, he just left a bottle filled with the revival pill and a note in his room saying he had decided to stay and would be away for a while because he had gotten a lead on the whereabouts of his friends.

The note only contained a short message without explaining anything, as he was strictly prohibited from disclosing any information about the mission. On the other hand, he didn't want to put Julian in a difficult position. After all, one of them had to go home.

"You did the right thing, the less people know about the mission the better," Silva said, who accompanied Emery and was watching him write down the note.
