"Thank you, Merlin. Thanks to you, I was finally able to make that decision."
In her study, Crystal bowed her head slightly toward Merlin, who was standing in front of her.
Merlin smiled faintly and shook his head. "It's okay, Your Majesty. Since it was your request, of course I had to do it. And besides, it didn't cause any negative consequences. So I don't mind helping you."
What happened in the throne room earlier was not solely Merlin's doing but happened with Crystal's approval.

Activating them required a lot of resources and, more importantly, the blood essence of the Tharot family.

Using the Seven Celestial Generals was a last resort—at least, that's what everyone believed.
