The Light Faction was unable to settle down for a moment due to the events that had occurred in the Martial Arts Tournament. For one, they had to ensure the safety of everyone in the crowd and those involved.

They were trying to mend relationships with the empire stationed within the Light Faction territory, as well as others spread across the continent.

After all, some merchants were based in areas such as the Demonic Faction and had a monopoly on certain materials used to make weapons. Since the Light Faction was the one hosting the Martial Arts Tournament this time, with everything that had occurred, they had no choice but to apologize.

All plans of what they wished to do after the Martial Arts Tournament were placed on pause, which was why they hadn't made any moves apart from those regarding the tournament.

As further news started to come out, it was decided that an expedited meeting was to take place.

Inside the Light Faction territory, not near any of the cities, towns, or villages, there was a large building with an oval shape. It was made of a special mesh on the top, crossing over and making it seem like it was naturally built by nature, like a bird's nest.

The building also seemed to be floating, making it look like a giant boat with the oval object in the center. In there, a meeting was occurring between the highest-ranking members of the Light Faction.

The largest clans were present, as well as all of the Elders from the Dawnblade Clan and many more. The inside of the building was almost like a miniature arena.

There were stands with large chairs that all pointed inward toward the center flooring. Although the space of the flooring itself was relatively small, around 15 meters in length and width.

As all of the important figures of the Light Faction were present, sitting around the outside, in the center, three individuals stood, spaced slightly apart from each other. They were quite recognizable figures in all of Pagna.

"Is this really necessary?" Ricar asked as he lifted his hands, and chains could be seen interlocking around his wrists, with beams of energy between them. Trying to break such a thing would just cause the person to lose both of their hands.

Although someone of Ricar's caliber, being the head elder of the Dawnblade Clan, might be able to break free without injuring himself.

"We already told you everything that happened, and I'm sure you have been able to somewhat confirm the details yourself thanks to the reports that have been coming from the Golden News," Ricar continued, thankful there was another witness.

Otherwise, it might sound like he was shaking things up regarding what had happened that day. On top of that, he had informed them of even more than what was reported, making everything slightly more believable.

"It's just a formality," Kawak said. "It was requested by all of the Light Faction, and don't worry, I believe everything you have said. After all, you even decided to return, but that seems to be part of the major problem."

"Exactly!" Another Clan Head, Haris, who had a large frame for his shoulders, which was not the usual look for Light Faction warriors, whose techniques focused on elegance and swift

movements.

"The issue is, on the day, all of us were transported out, and the only three that managed to stay at the arena were you three-Ricar, Beatrix, and Hannah. All three of you are part of the Dawnblade Clan, and you think it was a coincidence that only you three weren't transported?" There was quite the disturbance within the Light Faction for various reasons. So any planned attack on the Dark Faction or Demonic Faction after what had occurred was thrown out the window due to the issue that occurred.

"Shut your mouth!" one of the ten Elders of the Dawnblade Clan shouted. "Your Mirror Clan has been crushing outer clans for every move we make. You're just trying to pin the blame on us to be part of the Upper Order!"

"We already figured out the reason those three weren't transported with the rest of us was because of the positioning of everyone! Ricar did everything he could, and so did the others!"

"Did he, though?" Haris asked, arms folded and eyebrows raised. "The three of them should have died there, after knowing that the Red Hybrid had returned, and now we don't even know the status of the Red Hybrid."

The shouting match continued between multiple clans, and in the end, Kawak had to raise his hand to make the others stop.

"We can't dwell on these matters if we wish to move forward, as the current situation is dire for us all," Kawak stated. "This event has been somewhat of a loss for us, as it wasn't what was planned."

"We have lost one of our powerful artifacts in all of this..."

When this was mentioned, for a brief moment, Beatrix looked at Ricar. There was something that Ricar had never told them, and it was about the artifact used to change the terrain of the

arena.

She knew that Ricar had taken it with him, yet he hadn't told the others that he had it in his possession. As a member of the Dawnblade Clan herself, she had decided to keep her mouth shut, and so did Hannah.

"On top of that, there is now a possible figure that has arisen in all of this, the new leader of the Dark Faction, the Dark Magus, who might be even stronger than the Red Hybrid of the past."

"We know an artifact was used for him to gain this power, and if he is truly that strong, then it is something we need to worry about."

The Light Faction members nodded in agreement.

"I don't think you have to worry about that," a voice said as a person was heard walking through the tunnel leading to the floor where Ricar and the others were. "If the artifact was a multi-use tool, then they would have never waited till the end to use it."

"That power he obtained is temporary," a man said as he walked onto the floor.

"What are you doing here?" Kawak asked.
