While Noah and Fergie were busy training and exploring the magical beasts' domain, Divine Demon and the rest of the army that had attacked the Crystal City were traveling through the Outer Lands.
Their assault on the Crystal City had turned out to be a massive success. The Legion had destroyed the entire structure and killed many fanatics in the attack. Only a few members of that force and the two rank 8 experts had managed to escape.
The fight had not been fair. Divine Demon and Wilfred were powerful, but their opponents weren't weak either. Yet, Luke wasn't a member of the Crystal City, so he had eventually stopped caring about the battle and focused on retreating.
Madame Canson could only order a full retreat at that point. Miss Canson, Miss Nine, Shandal, Lord Ethan, God's Right Hand, and other core members of the Crystal City managed to escape, but they had to sacrifice all the other experts in the area.
