Four and a half natural days have passed since the battle between Colonel Kadun and former President Leoz.
During this period, the Night Butterfly Troops, unable to replace true technical positions even with a large number of clones and the Night Federation Army, had to choose to retract their lines and relinquish the already occupied areas.
However, the Crystal Tower was already exhausted, unable to advance after reclaiming symbolic planets like Avalofka, Dibilia, and Codename 901.
The two armies began to consolidate their forces at the front, salvage shipwreck debris, and seek treatment for their soldiers. Even when encountering each other on the battlefield, they remained silent, sometimes even helping to signal each other, alerting their soldiers to each other's positions.
For the senior politicians, these four and a half days were endlessly difficult, with domestic public opinion pressure and radical factions urging them to act at every moment.
