As Time passed several days slipped by
on the surface everything in Dawn City
operated with tense orderliness as if
the storm had yet to break all
individuals attended to their respective
duties collectively contributing to the
construction of dawn City those injured
in the snow beast attacks were
recuperating While others trained
diligently honing their Marksmanship or
honing their supernatural abilities yet
beneath this calm facade many remained
oblivious to the undercurrents stirring
ominously a great Tempest was imminent
stay sharp everyone await the right
moment Dion not foolishly rushed to
support this faction or that let us
observe the developments without
impulsiveness we are all of the lower
echelons truth be told these minations
are the domain of the powerful
regardless of who triumphs or falters in
the end we are all the same the great
figures are preoccupied with aligning
themselves we must not follow suit in
the shadows discussions unfolded they
sensed an unsettling atmosphere those
once of considerable status and strength
frequently gathered to deliberate some
matter clearly someone was plotting
while a significant number including
ordinary survivors were willing to join
them in Rebellion the majority remained
cautious reluctant to take sides
although they had previously belonged to
various alliances and served under
certain individuals reason dictated that
they should not hastily declare
Allegiance they were loath to medal one
misstep could jeopardize their very
lives meanwhile at the Lord's manner GAO
of the great wind Alliance arrived to
report dongu to my knowledge certain mid
figures from the three major alliances
have already Allied themselves with
emoon and his ilk others remain in a
state of indecision yet to make a
definitive stance they appear wary
lacking trust in emoon and the others
conversely the majority of ordinary
survivors seem disinclined to follow
emotion's lead Chon dong chuckled coldly
excellent you dare to oppose me you
shall meet a most gruesome fate if I am
not mistaken it will not be long before
they initiate their plans GAO nodded in
agreement
after a moment's hesitation GAO inquired
dongu if emoon and his faction take
action what should we do those who join
them will likely be numerous if we were
to eliminate them all would it not be
upon uttering these words gawo felt an
unsettling realization wash over him in
that instant he recalled the various
rumors surrounding Chan dong logically
as Chan Dong's subordinate he ought to
follow his directives yet his statement
seemed to imply he was instructing Chand
dong on how to to act the thought struck
him his complexion paled if Chan dong
were to take offense his life would be
forfeit fortunately Chan dong did not
press the matter you need not concern
yourself with this simply attend to your
own responsibilities Chan dong scoffed
understood gawo nodded repeatedly filled
with trepidation grateful for his
reprieve he also felt a lingering dread
thank goodness after departing the
Lord's manner gawo could not help but
slap himself Twice The Sound echoing
sharply he had nearly provoked Chan dong
xire with his indiscretion he vowed to
be more cautious in the future ensuring
such a situation would not repeat even
now he felt a shiver run down his spine
as he contemplated Chen Dong's words it
appeared that dongu intended to
eliminate anyone harboring treasonous
thoughts emotion and the alliance leader
likely never suspected that their every
move had long been laid bare before Chan
Dong's watchful eye furthermore Chan
Dong's resolve was unwavering
he was determined to thoroughly cleanse
Dawn City it would not be long before
the city was engulfed in Bloodshed I am
fortunate to have foreseen these events
to extricate myself in time and
