As soon as Sibren appeared and told his crew about backup, the Phantoms began to appear in the sky. They were coming from all directions, from the west and the east, from the top, from wherever they could.
"What is this..." Everyone was stunned by this incredible sight. Never before had they seen so many Phantoms in one place. Even Erza and Kelly, who had been Phantoms for so many years, had never seen such wonders.
As for Sibren, he was calm and looking up at the heavens slowly replied, "It is the Power of the Inner Circle."
And he was more right than ever, it was the Inner Circle that decided to help the Outer Circle with the sudden invasion of the monsters. Initially there had been no good reason for it, but the destruction was getting bigger. So, they could no longer ignore the invasion to their territory.
