"I appreciate your attitude. As for the end of the world, it seems the Seer Association has known about it for quite some time, and the Five Gods Church is certainly not completely unaware either. The exact timing and circumstances are still unclear, but the Great Witches of the Fifth Epoch have also been investigating it. Beyond that, even more people are making preparations. Besides, Murmuring Chapters and the end of the world still need to be investigated. But Murmuring Chapters is definitely connected to this. Pursuing the Chosen Ones remains the most important thing we can do."
Shade shook his head and finally rose while bracing himself on the back of the chair. Aurora wanted to help him, but Shade refused.
"What we need to prepare for now are the consequences of the world environment worsening, such as this summer's low temperatures, which will cause a drastic reduction in food production during autumn and winter."
"That is indeed troublesome, but since it has already happened, we can only look forward. As for the end of the world, I agree with Shade. As long as most of the Thirteen Chosen Ones stand with us, no matter what happens in the end, we will not be the weaker side."
Megan agreed as well.
"Then did Miss Feliana say anything else? For instance, did she ask you to do anything in the Sixth Epoch?"
Miss Aurora asked again, and Shade nodded.
"She told me to unite everyone who could be united, regardless of what they are. She also told me to..."
After hesitating, he finally said it.
"Take control of the Witch Council as much as possible."
The somewhat solemn atmosphere from moments ago was instantly broken, and all four beautiful ladies laughed softly.
"Isn't that what you've been doing all along?"
