It was early in the night.
Michael and Lily were walking down the crowded streets of the inner city.
They were alone.
There was a comfortable silence between them.
Alexia and Kang were scouting a nearby site where a Spirit Beast attack had recently occurred just the day before.
Unfortunately, their Squad didn't get the chance to participate in that battle. Because by the time they even heard about the attack, it was already over.
But they did arrive just in time to try and stop the Knights of the City from covering up yet another incident.
However, this got them into trouble with the Overlord.
Lord Everan accused them of meddling in official city matters and claimed they had no authority to interfere.
In response, Michael threw around the Academy's name.
It forced the Overlord to reluctantly back off as he ordered his Knights to do the same.
Because of that, this Spirit Beast attack wasn't covered up.
