Three days had passed since Raiden had gotten a call from John. He even talked to Isadora about what happened. She only said one thing.
"You are a non-combatant registered Battle Master. It is not required for you to take part. Stay at home obediently."
She immediately cut the call after that and never replied to any of his future messages. Any of the people he knew, he tried to call all of them, but they all appeared to be really busy with something, none of them having time.
After that, the atmosphere in the city grew even heavier as even the citizens realised something was wrong. A city-wide holiday was declared in the meantime.
But he was just a simple farm boy. He couldn't do anything, so he just stayed at home and trained as hard as possible.
After training, Raiden went back inside the house with a frown still lingering on his face, but the moment he stepped through the doorway, he forcefully suppressed it and replaced it with a calmer expression.
