In the palace of Duke Arsena in Storm City, John and Duke Arsena were deeply engaged in a discussion about the recent chain of events.
John had already made arrangements for Emma and SkyStars, allowing him to focus on the more pressing issue at hand.
"My guess is, could it be possible that the Dark Faction, after a series of failures, is planning to concentrate all its forces for a major assault on us? If that's the case, then the current events make a lot of sense," John posited.
John had access to information unknown to Duke Arsena, including details about devils trapped in the main plane.
He had learned from these devils that the Dark Faction had been plotting attacks against the Order Faction, but their efforts had so far been unsuccessful.
Even when some devils from the Dark Faction had achieved partial success, they had the misfortune of encountering John.
So far, all the devils who had directly engaged with John had been defeated.
