Several hours ago, in Sector One, in a coffee shop close to the Inner District, sat Lia.
Directly opposite her was a blonde man with deep blue eyes, a handsome yet arrogant face, and a well-built body. This was Cedric Duskwood, the direct descendant of the Patriarch of the Duskwood Family.
The Duskwood Family and the Nova Family had a great relationship. Before the current City Lord, Liebert Nova, became the City Lord, the two families lived in harmony, often marrying into each other's families.
A few hours ago, while Lia was practicing the Zenith Sword Art by herself as instructed by Grey, she was suddenly called to the main chamber within the City Lord's mansion. Her father had come out of seclusion and had invited her to meet him.
Inside the main chamber sat a middle-aged man with an above-average face. He sat cross-legged on a platform surrounded by a pool of energy. The energy was blue in color and formed a vortex around the platform where the middle-aged man sat.
