He gave a dramatic pause, then said:
"Let's not get to that yet. But instead, let's talk about the grounds where their battle took place."
"I assume it was in this forest, right?" Lillian tilted her head —her words causing Reph to shake his head.
"No... Rather, it was out at sea. Near the eastern region where the kingdom of Lucon resides. However, for some odd reason, the monster seemed more interested in coming to ours instead."
"Did... the eastern kingdom do anything to help us?"
"They did. They were, after all, the very reason why we were able to "win" in the first place." He ominously emphasised, "That was where the Tier 6 mage, Zama, came from."
"Eh? So they sent over a Tier 6 to help us? They sure are nice..."
"They didn't have much of a choice anyway." Reph shrugged, "Such a threat can't remain for too long in the world."
He then began to explain how the battle went.
