"Finally, here it comes..." Wald's eyes flickered as he gazed out the porthole into the boundless darkness.
Abel is not frightening; what's terrifying are the people hidden in the dark.
"...Arthur, I have arrived. Aren't we supposed to confront each other? Where are you?"
From the channel receiver, Abel's voice came, unceremonious.
Abel's eyes were sharp; he was alone in the spaceship, though the Thunder King stood behind him.
After the exchange with Li Ming, he hurried to the Empire Mother Star. Delaying even a day would stabilize Arthur's position.
Yet, he knew that alone he was a futile resistance. Even after being outside of the Empire Mother Star for a while, he hadn't made an appearance, waiting instead for Li Ming's news.
Until today.
"Has Lord Azure Dragon arrived?" Further away, hidden in the void, a ship housed Anatoli, Anduin, and other council members.
Seeing Abel reveal himself was unexpected.
"Not sure, but since Abel appeared, he likely has," Anduin remarked.
