“…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority.

The strange behavior had spread throughout the hall at an astonishing speed, and within barely a single minute, almost everyone present had already entered the Soul Society.
