The true body of Sword Flash, in particular, felt off to their senses. The energy waves coming from his body were erratic. They rose and churned, causing environmental mana to riot like a storm.
So no one made any noise or caused any distraction. They all waited solemnly and in silence for everyone to arrive and for the meeting to start.
The meeting began once everyone had arrived. Sword Flash was the first to speak.
He said, "As you might have guessed. I have advanced to the sixth mortal coil. The advancement is very recent. This is why my control over my power and aura is so weak. So I apologize for my erratic presence."
"I called this meeting to tell you of our current situation and inform you of what direction we are going next. Be assured. I don't have any bad news. All I have is good news."
After saying this, he smiled. His smile eased the tense situation in the council hall.
