After learning that Aldrian's departure time was not long, many of the leaders decided to stay in the capital city until Aldrian's departure.
They did not want to miss the chance to witness what could become a historic moment, when they could send off a figure who might truly bring change to the First Heaven.
This also allowed them to discuss many matters outside the limited time they had during the banquet.
The banquet itself was not long, lasting only two hours. However, even after the banquet ended, some of the leaders, especially those from major organizations, did not immediately leave the palace.
They continued conversing with Aldrian until Aldrian felt it was enough and left the palace to return to his mansion.
He decided to remain in the mansion until his departure the next day.
