Though tensions between the Empire and Confederation hadn’t waned in the slightest, both sides understood there was no merit in waging a war under the scrutiny of the Sage Dragon Emperor.

Chapter 1666: Retrospect

With the help of the World Tree’s network, it didn’t take long for Vahn to locate Asuna, and, after making the necessary preparations, he promptly teleported to her location.

Chapter 1665: Development

After waiting for the members of Ala Rubra to move far beyond the boundaries of his domain, Vahn reversed the order of entropy to repair the damage done to the island.

Chapter 1664: Fallout

Though Vahn didn’t particularly care about Nagi’s choice of vernacular, the fact he was making the same mistake as the last time gave him a strong urge to roll his eyes.

Chapter 1660: Trust

After consoling the crying woman for the better part of twenty minutes, Eva was sitting across from Karin as the latter explained what she had been up to over the last three-hundred-and-fifty years. It turns out, in preparation for their reunion, Karin had been working hard to gather magical artifacts, hard to acquire resources, and material wealth. She didn’t care …

Chapter 1659: Convergence of Fates

Though she wasn’t sure what she expected to find, Eva felt a little sad that, with the exception of a few expensive pieces of casual wear, everything in the wardrobe was exactly the same. There were more than twenty of the same style blouses, skirts, and stockings, almost as if it was intended to be some kind of uniform. As …
