The combat had been broadcast, two nations had stopped their activity, the war, to watch it, while in the Hellenic nation everyone supported Colonel Seth, whom they already considered one of their own due to his relationship with the Olympeion, in the Het empire. The feelings of the spectators were confusing.
On the one hand, in that combat staged as a fight of good against evil, The Dark Knight that Seth's mecha represented had won without possible discussion. The problem was that the imperial forces were on the verge of intervening, which was a disgrace to the forces of the empire.
