Nearby, Kali wore a thoughtful expression, vaguely understanding why the city-state's leadership was acting this way.
'Just as I want to gain the support of some of the Dawn Church's Holy Professionals, their goal is probably to get the Secret Investigation Department under their control.'

"When gunfire sounds, the death knell tolls. Death descends, a step into the Abyss of Despair, or eternal life in the Dawn."
Lisi recalled, "According to Director Nifa's prophecy, the 'gunfire' refers to Director Ales. As the Director of the Secret Investigation Department, it's fitting to use the Department's 'gunfire' symbol to represent him."
