★ Underground City Operations Headquarters ★

The Centurion had not returned—delays were inevitable in an operation, but even the Marshal could not conceal his agitation at something like this happening under the circumstances.

At the Underground City's operations headquarters, long after lights-out, he would start and look up whenever he heard a noise outside. His forelock, which normally fell in a single lock, was completely disheveled today.

"...Marshal, calm down. It's definitely worrying that only the Centurion's team hasn't come back, but we already accounted for that possibility, didn't we?"

At the strategist's words, the designer nodded as well, though his face remained anxious.

"Yes... you're right."

Tomorrow, at long last, they would strike Salme of the Urume Main House. They had suffered under her tyranny for many years, but at last they would bring that history to an end.

The plan was flawless. The designer and strategist had devised a plan that would leave Salme absolutely no chance to escape.

The problem was the monster known as the Mediator—but 【Insane Blade Dance★★★★★★】 would deal with that.

Given what happened to Sumeria's body, it would be best not to use this Gifted Jewel, but if anything unexpected happened, they would have no choice but to use it without hesitation...
