บท 712: All

While the events in Sector 3 were reaching their conclusion, the battle in Sector 1 was reaching its climax.

The Paragons had each felt Blackgate's presence as soon as he appeared in Sector 2, and while they all wanted to intervene, not all of them were able to leave the scene.

The battle hadn't paused—it had only intensified. Oberon, along with Thorne Alverian and Zephyron, stayed behind to contain it. Despite the ongoing battle, Magnus had still split his focus, sending a construct to Sector 3.

With the current state of Luminous, Magnus couldn't afford to abandon the fight. Luminous would never stop pursuing him if he left for Sector 3.

When the coast was clear in Sector 3, Magnus returned his full focus to the battle, and the change was immediate.

The battle between Magnus and Luminous had been raging for several minutes. For many, this might seem like a short time, but to the Paragons and the combatants themselves, it felt like an eternity.
