From a slope over a thousand meters away, Kei gazed at the towering giant in the distance and the crowd surrounding it, unable to help but let out a worried sigh.
Since being suddenly exiled from the Tower of Stars, it's been more than two years.
No matter how they besiege the protective barrier, they can never break through that seemingly thin invisible defense, only able to look on helplessly from the outside.

Sunan is also nowhere to be seen.
As time passes, the anxiety in Kei's heart grows stronger.
The Starry Alliance has repeatedly urged him to return and lead the battle, but Kei has ignored them, persistently waiting here.
After all, he knows very well that without the Star Alliance's support, even if the Starry Principality defeats the Cangjin Empire and takes over most of their territory, they can't hold onto the tempting gains.
