Bab 48: Resolute [1]

Everything had been thoroughly planned.

From Edmund's escape. The chaos that ensued by freeing the inmates, and finally, Mikhail's release.

Given the pale white sun and bleak gray sky, it signaled an incoming mana storm. 

During such storms, the guards would retreat indoors to secure Index.

This made Edmund's objective to escape harder, forcing him to ensue chaos, reanimating fallen monsters and guards to plot his escape. 

Of course, everything had just been a guide Vanitas had written down meticulously in his files, while scurrying through strategies used by veteran players to clear the Special Act.

According to them, Edmund Velgrind was the key to clearing the Special Act. If it wasn't a day for a mana storm, Vanitas had to go with plan B.

In any case, the problem lay in how the player would even free Edmund. This was where most new players failed, caught by the Warden, Alaric.
