Orin and the others were still reeling from Beast Sovereign's arrival.
Their emotions had been dragged up and down all day.
When the people from the Atlas Federation first appeared—especially after displaying their strength—Orin's group had thought they were finished.
Then Lord Theron arrived and firmly declared that he would protect them. Their despair instantly turned to joy.
When the fighter Ethan summoned proved no match for Theron, they became even more confident. With someone that powerful protecting them, why should they fear the Atlas Federation?
Their relief didn't last long.
As soon as that enormous beast arrived, Theron began to struggle. The man who had dominated the earlier battle was now being overwhelmed, and the Cathay Republic's hopes sank once again.
Then they heard Ethan's order.
Their faces changed instantly.
As soon as the words left Ethan's mouth, Chris and the others charged the Cathay Republic fighters.
