The troops from the Mavros empire had arrived in the empty city, the troops from the other three empires had arrived earlier.
The journey can be considered smooth, although there are few obstacles but the current monsters are very few, according to the monster research agency, now the monsters have entered a period of hibernation.
The time when the monsters are asleep, during the hibernation, the monsters are very difficult to find because they are the weakest times, so it is very easy to kill.
"Although the empty city was not occupied, it was always cleared by the imperial people." Obviously Alex.
"Energy here is weird." Arthur frowned, indeed the people of the elves were very sensitive and sensitive.
Liona was intending to purify ether after resting, it was really very uncomfortable, but since purifying ether was something so rare she could not carelessly point it out.
"Sister, at midnight you must escort me to purify the ether of empty town." Liona's whisper to Alex.
Alex looked surprised, but then he smiled and stroked Liona's head, in his mind Alex did not need to be surprised because Liona was his genius sister.
***
As night falls, Liona and Alex and Xavier are near a deserted building, and Liona begins to emit light from inside her body.
A strange black-colored Eve clumped into the sky bit by bit, forming a huge black shadow, Liona continued to close her eyes.
An orange-colored light surrounded her body, the black-colored strange air had completely disappeared, Liona lost her balance and almost fell down.
"You okay?" Alex catches Liona, Liona shakes her head saying she's okay.
Due to the vastness, the energy required to purify ether was overwhelming, despite having infinite mana, its physique was still human.
"Interesting." Someone in the dark, looking at Liona who was purifying ether, he grinned with a flicker in his eyes.
"I want it, who's the girl?" He muttered as he continued to pay attention to Liona who was recovering her strength.
"From Mavros ya."
The man left with a grin on his lips, Liona looked towards the man disappearing, frowning unconvincedly, it seemed like someone was watching him, but now that there was nothing, Liona did not think much.
"You don't have to force yourself, but thankfully the air in this empty town is better than ever." Xavier flicked Liona's forehead.
Alex hit Xavier on the head and glared at him, Liona just laughed amusedly.
A night of speechlessness...
Early in the morning, before the opening ceremony, the representatives of each empire had to worship at the temple near the empty city.
The temple was huge, as it became the place of worship of the devotees of every empire, despite being close to the empty city, it was very crowded.
It is said that the temple is the largest sacred temple representing the four empires, so it is always crowded.
"It's really beautiful." Some people were amazed, when heading to the temple was not allowed to use magic, so everyone walked from the empty city.
The temple cardinal greeted the participants kindly along with the pope who was by his side majestically.
Holy Eve emerged from within her, though somewhat quiet, but every look at her would feel an overwhelming calm.
The temple officials ushered each participant to pray, no one was not amazed, the stained glass reflected the morning sunlight, it made the hair of some people shine brightly.
In front of the altar was a statue of the great god athanatos, they all bowed and prayed, some even crying.
Only Cecilia was pretending, she felt hot while at the temple, it was because it had too much to do with heresy.
"Damn, why should I come, this makes me uncomfortable." His grunt was irritated while enduring the heat.
The illusory crown prince sometimes felt sober and sometimes stuck back, he was trying to solve his illusion.
Perhaps if it was a little longer, he could break the illusion created by Cecilia, but since the prayer had been completed, all the participants came out of the worship room.
A gentle breeze blew away the hair of the people, naturally this was spring and soon it would be summer, but even so, the temple was really always cool.
Liona smiled and saw Sean who was busy with his troops, he was completely disguised, but as Liona's contract relationship instantly recognized.
"I miss you." Sean was telepathic, it made Liona's face turn red suddenly.
"You sick?" Alex asked who saw Liona as uncomfortable.
"Ah no." Rigidly Liona retorted, she was shocked as Alex asked, so embarrassing she thought.
No longer lingering they immediately went from the temple to such a large central square in the empty city.
The organizing committee was from every imperial academy, so it would be very fair and they swore they would not side with any of the empires, well this was quite satisfactory.
"Welcome to all participants from every empire, thank you for participating in the festival and race held once every year.
I am truly honored to be the chairman for the implementation, I hope this race strengthens the relationship of every empire, and the friendship of every participant.
No need to linger, I open this festival and race."
Applause spirit filled the field, they look very enthusiastic and impatient, in addition to the festival and race prizes are also made a place to find a mate.
"Why are they so excited?" Ask Liona.
"Of course, in addition to bringing honor to the empire the prize is quite interesting, every participant who becomes a champion will be recorded in the history of the empty city and can be read by our grandchildren later." Luther explained enthusiastically.
Liona seemed uninterested, well that was because she already knew that the ones who would become champions were Cecilia and the crown prince.
"Look isn't that the daughter of the Asteria duke who is said to have done evil often?" Someone whispered loudly.
People looking towards the silent Liona looked unconcerned.
"Truly cheesy, he said he had no girlfriend, so he was often surrounded by men, who knew what the woman had done." The other whisper.
Liona held onto her temple, no matter who spread the rumors, but she never made any trouble and always behaved well.
"I want to pull their mouths out." Whispe Elios.
Liona glared at him with horror, has Elios gone mad?
Alex stared intently at the people who spoke ill of Liona, he couldn't make trouble or he would be disqualified for causing trouble.
"Not to be responded to, I don't really care about the responses of people who can only judge from the mouths of others." Said Liona in a condescending tone.
The people who were whispering were silent and moved away from there with embarrassed faces.
Cecilia who saw that looked at Liona with a look of disdain, even though it was only fleeting yet completely clear.
Liona stared back in disdain, thinking that Cecilia should be self-conscious, but because she knew her true narrow-minded nature then forget it.
"What the fuck is that bitch?" Luther looked at Cecilia contemptuously.
"Don't take care of that perverted woman, let's sit down." Reply Elios.
They went from there to find a seat and wait for the number for the race.
"Whatever page, he's more suited to orc shit, even orc dung is more valuable than himself." Arthur sneered.
It seemed that insulting Cecilia was Arthur's hobby, every word that came out of her was truly cruel.
Liona noticed Cecilia, as in the novel with her angel-like face, she easily made friends with people from other empires.
