When Elder Astra returned to the Night Blades headquarters, Shadow Celestial was already waiting there.
"You're finally back. Did your plan succeed in the end?" Shadow Celestial asked Elder Astra in a very gentle tone.
Although Shadow Celestial could track Elder Astra's every move through the Dark Portal, the immense chaotic power during the final battle at the Angel Guild headquarters had blocked its influence. This meant Shadow Celestial was ultimately unaware of what had transpired in the final moments of the battle.
Elder Astra spoke with a hint of regret in his voice. "My lord, my plan did not achieve complete success. While I led my subordinates deep into the Angel Guild headquarters, we encountered an unexpected attack from enemies."
