A Glimmer of Hope
"Guardian Elder..."
"I don't understand what you mean…"
Among everyone present, no one understood the complicated relationship between Secret Sword Summit and Amethyst Summit Division better than Shan.
For years, his father and Leon had stood on opposite sides, constantly clashing whenever they met. Their disagreements were no secret within Celestis Academy.
Now, however, everything had changed.
His father had fallen.
He no longer possessed the confidence or status to argue with Leon, nor did he have the strength to resist if Leon truly wished to interfere with Secret Sword Summit.
If Leon intended to make things difficult...
He would have no choice but to accept it.
The inheritance of Secret Sword Summit...
Might truly disappear today.
That thought pierced Shan's heart.
A deep sense of helplessness washed over him.
His fists tightened until his nails dug into his palms.
