Mia came out of the Union building not long after she went in. When Simon asked why she had returned so fast, she replied that the Union was already aware and had already sent people to take a look.
Apparently, the bird's cry and aura had also reached the City from that distance. This piece of news shocked Simon, while Alex felt that it was to be expected; this was a Divine rank magic beast after all.
Mia got into the car and instructed Simon to drive to the outskirts first to drop Alex off at his home before returning to their group's base.
Reaching home, Alex found his parents talking about the terrifying aura that had covered the City today and thought that a powerful magic beast was close to the city or about to attack them.
Alex could sense their fear from their words. After listening to their worry, he told them that the beast wasn't close to Balon City and was actually very far away; only its aura had spread to Balon City because of how powerful it was.
