"Now that everyone is here, let the meeting begin."
Balder tapped the table twice with his hand, reminding everyone to focus and indicating that the meeting was officially starting.

"Currently, the direct cause of the demonic beast waves appears to be elemental tides resulting from a rapid increase in elemental concentration in some areas."
"Under the stimulation of the elemental tides, many wild beasts have transformed into demonic beasts, and some pure elemental creatures like slimes have also appeared in large numbers."
