In Owen's perception, Azure Kingdom appeared as the only light within an endless darkness.
Those under Azure Kingdom's protection gazed into the void, their faces filled with profound gratitude.
Even from a distance, merely observing the Apocalyptic Thunder's power made their hearts race, as if their bodies were being devoured by countless ants.
They were certain that if they had faced that lightning strike directly, their fate would have been utter obliteration, with no possibility of survival.
When the thunderstorm swept across the land, they sensed the annihilation of beings far stronger than themselves, wiped from existence without leaving a trace.
Were it not for Owen and the protection of Azure Kingdom, they would now share the same fate as those mages and fallen factions.
This thought made their gratitude toward Owen even stronger, reinforcing the wisdom of their decision.
