Two people with their own agendas. Protecting each other in their own way.
But they did not have enough time to prepare themselves better.
Following the signal from the Divine Temple, the rulers of the various kingdoms made their way to the Kingdom of Sa Er. Within half a month, some rulers of the smaller nations nearby had already arrived at Sa Er's capital city.
Sa Er's neighboring nations were mostly smaller and had no Grand Tutors. But as a show of respect to the Divine Temple, those rulers transferred many of their Terminators to Sa Er despite the pressure on their borders.
Somehow, news spread that the Divine Temple was summoning them to discuss ways to handle the demons, as well as provide upgrades to their Terminators, to make them more powerful.
