A couple of hours passed as the entire team entered their virtual pods to calm themselves down before they could get any work done.
Jeremy and Julia began to train, fighting opponents with exceptional ferocity to give vent to their emotions.
Elliott sat on the floor of a virtual room and meditated to clear his head.
Though he didn't gain mana like Otto did, meditation was always useful in calming one's emotions.
Jason read through his various spells and distracted himself by making a plan for his upcoming first summon.
Mirabelle just sang and sang in the virtual space, releasing her pain with song.
Otto received no news about the perpetrators, for now.
But he wasn't worried.
It would take at least a bit of time to find a few people among the large sea in such a vast Area 1, no matter how much money he threw at investigators.
In the meantime, he entered a period of calm.
