Chapter 1908 Report

?The news of Emery being asked to stay back did not sit well with his friends. Thrax protested, "What do they want with you now?" Klea, equally worried, expressed her determination to accompany him. However, their concerns were addressed when a familiar figure approached them. Delbrand, their former headmaster, came forward to ease their anxieties.

"Don't worry; he was being called to debrief only." Delbrand assured them with a steady voice.

With a trusted figure accompanying Emery, a sense of relief washed over the group, and they decided to wait for him back at the Nephilim planet. N♡vεlB¡n: Transforming Moments into Memories.

Exiting the Nephilim ship, Emery and Delbrand soared into space. As they watched the majestic ship depart, numerous other vessels from various factions also disembarked from the space station. Among the departing vessels, some bore visible scars of the recent space battle—a testament to the trials faced during the celestial expedition.

"Follow me," Delbrand spoke with authority, leading Emery into a special area of the space station. There, three dozen figures had gathered, half of whom were grand magus, and among them were two exalted supreme magus: Imperio and the familiar face of Supreme Magus Altus Dresden. Alongside them stood prominent faction leaders, including Zach Talon, the commander of the Magus Alliance military forces.

As Emery entered, Zach just concluded his report, and the attention of the council, Grand Magus Fury Hammer, shifted to Emery. "Bring him forward," the council commanded

Delbrand initiated the introduction, highlighting Emery's pivotal role in halting the resurgence and venturing into the portal successfully. The revelation stirred astonishment among the gathered figures.

"How is that possible! He is just a mere magus!!" one council member exclaimed, expressing the disbelief shared by many.

As the council turned their gaze towards Emery, he sensed the probing scrutiny directed at him. Instinctively, his spirit defense, augmented by the [Emperor Focus], responded, creating an invisible barrier that resisted the probing attempts of the grand magus.

"He has very high resistance in spirit attacks... that is why," the council explained with a hint of amusement, acknowledging Emery's unexpected capability.

Delbrand, interrupting Emery gently, placed his hand on his shoulder. The warmth of the touch conveyed both understanding and wisdom. "You are not that young, naive kid anymore. You can decide what is best for you or for the alliance."

Emery nodded, appreciating the elder's guidance. "Thank you, elder..."

As they conversed, a figure approached them with purpose. It was Zach Talon. With a formal display of respect, Zach acknowledged Delbrand and stated, "The ship is ready."

"Good. We should go right away,"

Seeing the seriousness in Zach's tone, Emery sensed that something significant was unfolding. Unable to contain his curiosity, he asked, "Where are we going?"

Delbrand explained, "I am tasked to continue the investigation, to follow the Oculus faction trails."

Before Emery could respond, Delbrand smiled and added, "Well, not you... this is an official Magus Alliance mission, after all."

Zach, looking at Emery with a knowing smile, chimed in, "Well, if you want to join, there's a space for you on my unit."

The offer held a profound significance, triggering memories of an offer made eight years ago—an invitation to join the military together. It was a tempting proposition for Emery, but with the current complexities in his life, diving into another battle wasn't a decision to be made lightly.

Observing Emery's contemplative expression, Zach offered reassurance, saying, "Next time, maybe." With that, the two magi boarded the Taurus ship, and Emery watched as their vessel departed from the space station through the expansive observation windows.

As Emery pondered his route home, a figure approached him. "You can come with me." Emery was taken aback to find that he would be sharing a ride with Altus Dresden, the supreme magus. The unexpected invitation hinted at a unique journey ahead, one that held the promise of insights and revelations.
