507 Planet Defense War and Summer Night's Superpower

...

Matthew was surprised at Link's arrival.

Among the four Heavenly Mages of the Alliance, Matthew had some connections with Isabelle and Soria, but he was relatively unfamiliar with Link and Nameless.

He knew only that this Heavenly Mage had a fiery temperament and aggressive methods.

Within the higher echelons of the Alliance,

Link was an even more vehement human supremacist than Isabelle.

He was also one of the Heavenly Mages who had contributed the most to the Alliance or humanity—

As the first to leave the material world and go to the astral world to protect the Intelligence Lock.

Link had devoted nearly all of his prime years to Aindor.

As far as Matthew knew,

Link was also the one whom the gods of the Heavenly Palace despised the most.

After all, it was he who had single-handedly thwarted the gods' Lock Plan head-on.

And during the long years in the astral world,

Link was constantly faced with assassinations and attrition from astral creatures and gods.
