The gathering in the plaza did not end with a decision.
It ended with exhaustion.
For hours, the people argued.
Some demanded that the Devil Kingdom be destroyed while it was still weak.
Others believed that the war had already taken enough lives.
Some shouted that Lilith could not be trusted.
Others argued that refusing her offer would only guarantee another war in the future.
The authorities eventually had no choice but to end the gathering.
There was no vote.
No agreement.
No official declaration.
The people simply went home carrying their own opinions.
Some left with anger burning in their eyes.
Others left with hope.
Many left confused.
The Human Domain had celebrated victory as one nation.
But after the ceremony ended, it became clear that victory had not united them.
It had divided them.
And the division only grew deeper over the following days.
The Holy Church
The Holy Church had never been this tense.
