"Souta is alive... That's good."
She murmured softly, a faint smile appearing on her face. Knowing that he was still alive brought her some much-needed relief.

The situation had escalated far beyond what she could have imagined. She couldn't understand what had happened in the Great Shen Empire, much less what Souta was trying to accomplish by involving himself in such a dangerous battle.
