Chapter 2056: Persistent Interest

As the date of the upcoming product reveal of the Doom Guard approached, something completely unexpected occurred.

One day, the boisterous Cinach System welcomed another august visitor.

Lucky, who was huddled against Clixie, looked up at him with a curious expression.

"Something is up." Ves frowned. "I just received an emergency notification from Benny."
