"I wonder what kind of storm this will cause," he mused to himself before settling into his own room to check his gains.
As Aur expected, the village was in turmoil upon learning of the death of the Alchemist Elder and ten peak tier one wizards. They were shocked beyond control.

"Luckily, we still have a backup alchemist," Noah consoled himself, unaware that this "backup" Alchemist was the murderer of Alchemist Elmer.
