Arthur after his arrival on the new world had threaded a very lonely path. After becoming a descent of Orifiel he took a glimpse into the life of Orifiel, one of the eleven archangels. Orifiel was the archangel that was in charge of all thrones, in a way he was tasked with a heavy burden of keeping watch on every throne be it heavenly or earthly even though lost times celestial intervention in earthly disputes were deeply prohibited. Except if the enemy was something the humans could not handle of course they were pardoned to interfere. Angels had their own free will just like any other being, but being an existence beyond human reach and the tool of the supreme they were regarded as the best, though some do not believe they exist.
Well, Angels are a topic for another, we've got a lot to settle within our domain.
Having seen Archangel Orifiel's true past and how he sacrificed himself for the goods of others more. Arthur was determined to find out more about Archangel Orifiel's disappearance, though it might be a class advancement quest to Arthur it was a lot more personal and he was ready to get to the bottom of it, but first, he had to yield to the Angels, and more so, the archangels who were in total control of power, things could go bad with his race change process if he doesn't act accordingly.
But after visiting the celestial realm once and having an opportunity to meet with two archangels who accepted as the graced of Orifiel, he was pretty confident and was already pushing his plans to expose the archangels by first exposing their lackeys, if things get chaotic as he plans it might even bring back the supreme back the supreme God from wherever he is but everything he was pushing was for the return of Orifiel and using Orifiel to get back home.
He had a perfect plan or so he thought.
On the edge of the valley he stood, he brought out a roughened picture from the old earth.
"My second reason. . . wait for me wherever you are Gina"
He spread out his wings and took off again.

Kain and his crew had begun their silent movement to the azure empire, they had to be discreet as possible plus they were sneaking a high ranking official.
So far so good, they now made it to the border leading to the Dendatha Kingdom one of the kingdoms in the Forgan empire alliance, right at the south-east border of the Forgan empire.
"As expected the security is tight."
"Getting out will not be easy"
"shut it old fart"
"Come on Mr Kain aren't we more than acquaintances now."
"Whether or not you are acquainted with him, he will always be like that Duke. Kain is a spoilt, hard-headed, stiff-necked, ruffian"
"I'm nothing like a ruffian."
"What's a ruffian anyways?... you players speak too many foreign languages"
Duke Bryand having spent almost a month with them was now adapting to their lifestyle, at first, he was bossy and authoritative but soon he learnt his place and was adapting to them. The Mudguard guild took a huge blow when they lost to the silver knight and he's a wyvern, the surviving members were not in good shape including the assistant guild leader, they had to leave the others in Leceiviester to make sure the duke returns home in one piece so they could get their reward. This is the only thing that could make up for their loss. The Forgan empire soldiers thoroughly inspected everyone and asked for an identification tag before letting them through the gate, so the queue was very long.
They chit-chatted as the long queue proceeded.
The security on every bother tightened as the Forgan empire prepares to swallow the Azure empire or better still burn it to oblivion.
Every Kingdom was ready for an all out war, especially with the new rider squad in view, the victory of the empire was assured.
Azure empire did not relent also, Ajett was given a second chance by Regal himself, his confidence seemed to increase after discovering he had someone that strong on his side and there was the great mage Jorek whom after coming back defeated has been in solitary confinement.
Whether things were getting awfully bad or awfully good for the eastern continent, the sure thing was, there will be a great war.
