The events of these past few days have gripped the hearts of everyone in the Northern Alliance.
Or rather, the world's attention is now focused on the Northern Alliance.
Who could have guessed that in just half a month, so much could happen at a Mage League tournament?
One of the five great empires being played for fools by a sect—while the world mourns those who died in Gerald City, they're all mocking the Northern Alliance.
"Unbelievable—a town of tens of thousands, and it took a whole hour after losing contact for anyone to even notice."
"One hour to discover it, and rescue wasn't sent until three hours later."
"Three hours? Anyone who wasn't dead at first surely died later, right?"
"They haven't announced the death toll yet, but you know it's a lot."
"Rumor has it at least half died, and the rest aren't much better off."
"What a disgrace. And they still have the gall to host the Mage League?"
"Sects are terrifying."
