Time passed silently, and it had been nearly a month since the soul surgery of Helen and Ravenna concluded.
During this month, nothing particularly noteworthy occurred in the imperial capital, except for… the explosion at a central alchemy workshop of the Alchemy Association.
— According to the detailed and specific creation methods and ideas provided by Ravenna, three top alchemists, at the cost of one life and one sanity, finally created the Etheric Armament that surpassed Material Armament.
That day, Evora's wild and arrogant laughter echoed over the imperial capital. No one knew what kind of power this tyrannical princess had gained from the Etheric Armament, but it was enough to give her the courage to disregard Ephesande's authority... It seemed her gains were extraordinary.
Flamelle continued his final creation, with Annelisa always by his side, while Helen, who had seized Ravenna's soul, was preparing a gift for Ansel.
