Jupiter was still far beyond Mars's orbit, yet from Earth, it already looked as large as the moon.
A strange phenomenon of "two moons hanging in the sky" immediately appeared above Earth.
People on Earth discussed it fervently. Could this be the world-ending disaster Apocalypse King had mentioned?

Apocalypse nodded. "Earth is ready."
"Good!"
Arishem raised one hand toward Jupiter and
