The Author's POV
Chapter 617
Two days have passed since Ren went to Immorra, nothing changed in Ashton city during that time.
Everything was just as calm as it had been for the past couple of years.
Of course, that was merely on the surface level.
Anyone in a high position knew that this was the calm before the storm.
…and it wasn't just any regular storm, but a large storm. One that would severely affect the conditions of the human domain in the near future.
That was due to the fact that the truce between the Union and the Monolith will expire in less than a month, ushering in the start of a new era. An era that was filled with conflict and death.
"Why are you so confident that they will declare war on us as soon as the truce is over?"
A gathering was taking place at the top of the Union tower.
Currently, all of the top tankers were present. Including Kevin, who stood beside Monica, and Donna, who was also present and standing beside him.
It was clear to see that they belonged to the same 'faction' inside of the Union. Monica's faction.
"It is not a matter of why anymore, Monica."
Daphne, the now third ranked hero spoke up.
She began to explain the situation to her.
"Over the past few years, we have observed that the Monolith has used this opportunity to consolidate their authority and influence. Their forces are stronger and more powerful than ever, and although it isn't confirmed, we can conclude from that, that there is a high chance of a war breaking out between the two of us. Also, have you not noticed Monica?"
Daphne paused while her eyes swept over everyone in the room.
"Have you not noticed how both the demons and the members of the Monolith have become so quiet right after that crack appeared in the air?"
Monica immediately became calm after hearing her remarks, sitting back in her chair and thinking to herself.
Before she could say anything else, Maximus spoke up.
"Regarding the crack, I think this will be useful for all of you to look at."
He then pressed his hand against the desk and a hologram appeared in the air.
The image of an elf appeared in the video. Everyone in the room was familiar with the video that was currently being displayed.
"A manifestation of the most recent cataclysm is the crack that has appeared in the atmosphere. The main objective of the crack is to fill the planet with as much mana as possible in order to open the door for monsters from the demon world to arrive."
"Previously, due to the planet's low mana density, dungeon creatures could not survive on the surface for very long. This isn't true, though, when there is a lot of mana in the world of humans. If it were to occur, monsters would be free to wander the earth, allowing the demons to start a blown out war against humanity."
