[Panse's P.O.V.]
The outcome of Dragon Slaying Gang's internal strife depended on the decision of the neutral party. Nazan was just about to succeed, but at the last moment, the neutral party chose that lad, Kirk! However, the battle had only begun and I wasn't in a hurry. Since Nazan was able to lay low for so many years, he must have made sufficient preparations for this battle. At this moment, I still had a sliver of hope for him. With his abilities, it wouldn't be a problem for him to deal with a young brat.
When Olly returned, he sent people to hide in the forest near Dragon Slaying Gang's internal battle to keep us updated.
