Being transported away through Alie Rose’s granted power of darkness, Russell Moon, his younger sister, Lunaria, and Artorious Hall fled the scene of ritual to open the crack of the Black Veil, which successfully transpired.
Fortunately, through Lunaria’s ambiguous ability that seed to circle around ’mist’, this crack was covered, albeit temporarily.
Arriving in a secluded area, far away from the war of the continent, Artorious Hall couldn’t help but query:
"How did you know about that abolished Project, young man?"
Even though Russell Moon was a mysterious entity and a human, Artorious Hall still addressed him in such a manner.
The abolished project called Project Obelisk: Nuclear Arsenal Developnt [PONAD] was a top-secret military project that was born with the idea of eradicating a Tower Dungeon.
After all, if the outdated weapons of the Old World didn’t work against the monsters of the Tower Dungeons, why if it was powered by Mana itself?
It was a ridiculously insane concept that actually succeeded along with the discovery of Mana Stones and Mana Cores. However, a nuclear arsenal was out of the question... since there was no such way to configure a vast amount of Mana in a necessary container without it leaking.
"You are asking the wrong question. It should be what I should not know."
Russell Moon’s words seed to boast. But in fact, his tone was just casual, garnering the attention of his companions.
Under their scrutinizing gaze, he then continued as he said with the sa casual voice, "Does it even matter how co I know of its existence buried in Obelisk Organization’s deep files? What matters at this mont is how it should work since that’s the only way to win against what’s coming.
"You should know by now, Sir Artorious, that I am no ordinary man. Even though I desired to be, it seems impossible in my case."
His gaze landed on Lunaria with a subtle smile.
Artorious Hall rembered Russell Moon’s assurance of the existence of his wife, who disappeared along with thousands if not millions of others for so reason and was nowhere to be found since the beginning of the Ergence.
He fell silent, dismissing the claim of the young man, which he inwardly accepted as the truth.
After that, Russell Moon’s voice echoed, and his gaze landed on Alie Rose. The latter, with a confused look, shrugged, seemingly unaware of what he ant. After all, whenever Russell Moon asked for her, Alie Rose understood it just for the sake of teleporting from one place to another.
"Sigh. Alie, what we’ve acquired several months ago. It is ti to put it to good use."
Alie Rose pondered, recalling everything the two of them did.
’The two of us did... That!’
"Ah! The Urum minerals! Those that were kept by the Shadow Guild!" Upon realizing it, she shouted in anticipation.
Hearing them, Artorious Hall just listened attentively. He seed tired of questioning anymore what this group of students had been doing for the past month or days even before he discovered their existence.
"Yes, the URUM mineral, Sir Artorious. That’s the right material to initiate again Project Obelisk for the developnt of a Mana-made Nuclear Arsenal."
It was then that Artorious Hall queried, "Alie just said you got it from the Shadow Guild. Can you tell more?"
Russell Moon then explained what had transpired in the past, how they got it, where they located it, and what had transpired from there.
"I see. We can threaten the Shadow Guild with this."
After so rest, the five of them then vanished through Alie Rose’s Spade Warp.

Near the capital of Nereia, Enfiya, the raging war continued as the Princess of this nation was still in deep slumber, unknown of the ti she would open her eyes to the world.
The Vampire General, Anne, was in the backlines, watching those humans struggle against the army of Vampires pushing the front lines. But everything for her was just an amusing play of theatre, seeing blood and blood; limbs and limbs from everywhere she set her foot into.
"Sigh. This is freaking boring. Is there no one worthy here?"
At that mont, the air near her vibrated as a woman seed to have co from nowhere and landed on the ground, causing massive shockwaves from the nearby surroundings, confusing the other Vampires near their General as to where this woman had co from.
"Oho, who’s this daring bitch?"
"Samantha!" It was then that another woman arrived.
"Why the hell are you in a hurry?" Elizabeth von Etherion seed to scold the daughter of Artorious Hall, Samantha Hall.
With a cold tone, as she heard what Anne just said, Samantha Hall’s voice reverberated.
"To get rid of... a bitch?"
At that mont, Anne vanished from her position as she instantly lunged towards Samantha Hall.
Instead of being mad, she maniacally laughed as though she instantly lost all of her rationality.
"I like you! Co one!"
Bang—!
A refined blood weapon, a crimson sword, struck the two students in line. But thankfully, Samantha and Elizabeth blocked her attacks as the latter muttered:
"Go easy now, you Vampire bitch."
Boom—! Bang—!
It was a spectacle in the eyes of the Vampire spectators.

"Kill them all!"
Several hundreds of platoons of Vampires were being sent to the Disruption Land, where Han Jiho, accompanied by the Chairman of the Obelisk Academy, Alexander Akalchelt, and his Mana Theory Professor, Scarlet Netherdawn, was continuously eradicating these existences.
"Alexander, I felt the Black Veil breaking up but sothing covered it before everything went worse." Scarlet Netherdawn muttered, her hands at her back while she was andering behind the student they were supporting, no... guiding.
"I also felt it. I don’t know who, but I guess it’s a guarantee for us, for Han Jiho to have more ti to prepare against the beings of the other side." Alexander Akalchelt said, grateful for Lunaria’s power that wrapped the Black Veil for a month at least.
"That’s fair. Han Jiho will reach the level suitable for the incoming war from the other side."
Scarlet Netherdawn muttered; a subtle smile broke to her lips.
