"W-wha...!"

Rhode shot up and stared at the unfamiliar ceiling.

Only one day was left before the midsummer festival closing ceremony.

Heated discussions regarding the match between Starlight and Liberty Wings were still drifting among the people. But due to Rhode's strategic misguidance, Starlight was no longer the center of attraction. Now, the conflict converged on the Northern and Southern Regions, but under the watchful eyes of Lydia, it didn't go out of hand unlike before.

The Southern Reformist Party suffered a crushing defeat; Sky Sword and Liberty Wings were practically doomed.

Rosen was murdered, battle angels imprisoned Liberty Wings, vile rumors spread about Liberty Wings working with demons. Because of these factors, the Southern Reformist Party chose to keep silent. They didn't want their enemies to have another reason to blackmail them.

"I didn't expect things to turn out this way."
