Chapter 147: Morning with Hazel

Morning rays broke over the horizon, illuminating a city that had narrowly skirted disaster.

The remains of demon eagles lay scattered in the foothills, the plague was curbed by the herbal remedy, and the Totem Serpent had faded into the mountains.

Among the populace, talk of condemnation or doubt toward the serpent all but vanished. Instead, they lauded the "Sky God Serpent" who had intervened at the city's darkest hour.

At White Town, Walter Murphy reported to his higher-ups how the fiasco with tainted blood agent had been resolved, thanks to timely evidence and a certain unstoppable serpent overshadowing everything.

Meanwhile, in the fortress, Zack Reed and Victor Hale prepared official statements that recognized the Totem Serpent's heroic act.

Unanimously, they agreed: any existing orders against it were void and must be revoked.
