Chapter 1430: Closing the Net
While Sein was busy with his own affairs in the Divine Tower of Ashes, a meeting that would shape the course of the Clash of Civilizations had quietly begun in Sky City.
“Shouldn’t we close the net now?” asked one of the knight overlords in the spacious circular conference hall.
“I believe there’s no rush. We can wait a little longer,” another soul overmage replied.
Compared to the Prelim Council before the Magus Alliance Conference, only a few Magus World knight overlords and overmages were present in Sky City at this moment.
Many powerhouses had already rushed to the frontlines.
After the war against the Gallant Federation began, Magus World’s leadership clearly felt uneasy relying solely on the overlord-level creatures in the Magus Alliance.
Rank Seven powerhouses like Zenasus of the Pyro Secret Society had already arrived on the border of the critical Netherworld Star Domain battlefield.
Even Klopp, the Rank Seven knight whom Sein had met earlier, was still absent from Magus World. He was stationed in Drifting Cloud World, managing the alliance’s resources and legion deployments on that medium-sized plane.
The most influential figure present in Sky City now was Bev, the peak Rank Seven soul overmage.
Yet Lady Bev showed great respect toward the mature woman in a purple dress who was seated at the round table in Sky City’s conference hall.
“Lady Regalis, what do you think?” Clad in a pristine white mage’s robe, Bev humbly asked the woman beside her.
“Technically speaking, I’m no longer part of Magus World’s leadership. I have also mostly stepped back from the affairs of the Dragon Warlock Clan. This time, I’m merely killing time. With the Clash of Civilizations underway, I thought I would stretch my legs—unlike some of the other old timers who have either left or gone into hiding,” said the woman in the purple dress.
