Angele stayed in the mansion for a while and checked the situation of the matrices. The crystal card could still support them for about half a year, so they did not need to be replaced yet. He gave some more food to Freia and returned to the main world.
Morrian, Seth, and Milan left the ruin after resting for several days. They left Vivian’s gifts to Angele before leaving.
Angele put the gifts into his travel case and left the ruin, heading directly to the Mermaid’s Song.
The distance from the ruin to the Mermaid’s Song was short, so it only took him about ten days on the road.
The city was a mess. Many people were crying on the streets.
Three funerals were being held in the city and the atmosphere was heavy.
Walking down the main street, Angele saw people carrying white and black coffins around.
He turned left and entered a narrow street. Most of the pedestrians on the street were women and children, with barely any young men in sight.
