"It was like yesterday."
Anise began telling Leon the time when Shin had visited Evana.
Leon sat near her and did not try to interrupt.
And what Anise told him next made everything Leon had been doing until now feel like a borrowed dream.
Shin Kataino had visited Evana City long before it fell into this messy loop.
His main purpose for visiting here was to find a solution to a problem he had been chasing for years.
What was that problem? And why Doctor Anise of all people?
Leon had already known it, and the answer was tied to one name.
Lumina Elizabeth Dare.
Back then she was still alive and still walking the world with her sword in hand. She had been an active participant in the Great Calamity War.
She had fought beside legends. She had made a name for herself that even the Calamities themselves had taken notice of.
But she was not just another warrior.
Lumina Elizabeth Dare was on par with the Five Calamities without ever reaching the Calamity rank herself.
