"Apologies for the delay. I am currently in the midst of midterms, and tomorrow's exam is quite challenging, so I'll only be able to manage one chapter today. I will post the remaining chapter after I return from the exam tomorrow."

Above the Kurodola Gorge in the central part of the Red Leaf Empire,
With a loud bang from the horizon, a red and yellow meteor suddenly streaked across the sky, tearing through the air and crashing into the gorge. In an instant, the entire gorge shook violently, and the surging energy that rapidly spread out destroyed everything in its path. The huge impact and the sense of crisis that spread out caused the magical beasts in the gorge to tremble uncontrollably and flee in all directions.
For a moment, the tranquility of the gorge was completely shattered.
