The news of the final battle's initiation spread across the entire Wizard Alliance in less than an hour after its announcement.
Everyone knew that the alliance would soon go to war, but few had expected the war to begin so swiftly.
"I have to leave now, Donna."
In front of the War Airship, Richard and Donna shared a hug. Afterward, he looked at the girl next to Donna, who bore a strong resemblance to her—Donna's daughter who kept Gao Wen tied down.
"Mosca, I'm leaving."
Even though they had known each other for many years, Gao Wen always felt an inexplicable awkwardness in front of Mosca.
He felt he wasn't much older than this child.
"Dad, go for it."
Mosca embraced Gao Wen warmly, filled with enthusiasm and admiration, unlike Gao Wen's awkwardness.
As a recipient of the Miracle Medal, he was a hero of the entire Wizard Civilization, and a source of pride for Mosca.
After their goodbyes, Gao Wen said no more, gesturing to Asu before boarding the airship.
