Chapter 1940: Wealth

With Hecate's integration into Emery's subtle influence, the immediate pressure from Kronos was temporarily alleviated. However, a new urgency arose – the need for more spirit stones.

The stark reality that the Earth factions lacked the required funds was a source of frustration.
