Present were Aldrich, Ariel, and Amos from the Romann family, Bishop Zane from the Frosac family, as well as Byrne and Chris from the Fischer family, a total of six individuals.
Chris calmly took a corner position, an act that would be considered very rude by others, but most of the people present were entirely accustomed to it.
Zane hugged the youthfully restored Byrne with glee and said, "It looks like I won't have to attend your funeral after all, Byrne. This is the only good news in recent times."
"Congratulations, Byrne!"
Aldrich sincerely reached out his hand, smiling as he shook Byrne's hand, happily saying, "You've successfully ascended to Monarch without leaving us so easily."
Ariel nodded slightly, speaking indifferently, "Good, you're a man of your word."
"Yes, I've survived, and now I can carry out the plan we agreed upon a long time ago."
