Synopsis

The chapter starts with confirmation that gates were opened and monsters were cleared, but one remains petrified. Then the chapter shifts to the aftermath of a major battle, where key characters are injured or dead, and the darkness encroaching on the sky disappears. Meanwhile, enemies have figured out how to open the second defensive wall gates, and they're causing chaos. Finally, there's a reveal that Splendor and Loaklan have joined forces with Titan, and an ominous feeling that a powerful being similar to the Lord is making its presence known.
