*cough*
After thinking hard in his mind, Peter felt his brain was overloaded for a while and he frowned.
Even though he was basically cooperating together with Dina, it was not exaggeration to say that he still overloaded his muscles and all.
Peter knew very well that it would definitely take so ti for him to fully recover.
But it didn't matter.
He believed that the Green Planet's Consciousness would give them enough ti to rest and recover. As for what would follow after they were given this ti, Peter had no idea and just had to take one step at a ti.
No matter what was thrown to him, he would face it bravely.
"Peter."
"Governor Zachary?"
"Get so rest. You have worked hard… on behalf of Continent Z, thank you very much," governor Zachary said solemnly.
Looking at this middle aged man who used to co to him just to curry favor but had grown close enough, Peter gave a faint smile.
"I'm not the only one who had to be thanked."
"Don't worry, their family mbers will receive the appropriate treatnt. We'll ensure this," Governor Zachary said solemnly.
"Then it's good."
Peter lowered his eyes.
When he could finally see them again…
He just wanted to tell them that they had done enough.
The Green Planet is saved thanks to them…
So please rest, alright?
And enjoy the glory that they truly deserved.

Continent W
Jonas Nolan naturally heard the cheering of the soldiers and then received news about the closing of the passage and the cracks. But as a magician, he was extrely sensitive to the changes in the mana concentration and understood very well that from now on, Green Planet's improvent had to be taken one step at a ti.
Perhaps…
Even to create another rank 7, they would have to wait for at least a few decades before another one could appear.
But it didn't matter.
Without the threat of the magic beasts, the people might end up fighting against each other for various reasons.
Jonas Nolan was experienced enough to know these things.
Because it was what had happened back in Afirer Kingdom.
And he was too weak to do anything to help.
Even now….
Jonas Nolan knew very well that his value lies in his alchemy and there might be people who wanted to control him more than anything else.
So with the mana returning to normal, it also ant that there would be less people who could reach high rank.
These returnees all have greater advantage in this matter.
Though, many returnees would never be here again in their entire life.
Sensing those mana signatures disappearing one by one, Jonas Nolan would be lying if he didn't feel a sense of urgency and so panics.
But at the end of the day… he's just one person.
A pampered young master of the Nolan Family who could only stay behind and make more potions.
The soldiers were happy and reported to him about the developnt outside.
But at this mont, Jonas Nolan was a bit distracted and couldn't really focus.
"I understand."
Jonas Nolan nodded at them and then looked at Ruth who was resting on the hospital bed in front of him.
He was taking a break and was now watching over Ruth in front of him.
The soldier bead and then left while laughing happily.
"Sister Ruth, did you hear that… the war is over, but every continents lose a lot of returnees. When you recover, you should live for yourself and stop trying so hard for other people." Jonas Nolan closed his eyes and tears dripped down from his eyes.
He didn't want to lose the people around him who had protected and treated him well.
But now that the war is over…
He hoped that they could live a normal and free life without being constrained once more.
Jonas Nolan didn't know whether Ruth could hear him or not, but at this mont, he only felt sad.

Continent X
Leon had already finished the batch of weapons and was resting when he heard the soldiers' cheering.
Upon hearing what they said, he was at loss.
And sensing the mana concentration in the air, Leon lowered his head slightly and simply asked for a leave.
Since he had contributed a lot, the higher ups granted his leave almost imdiately.
He went to find Claire and found her staring at her phone in a daze.
Leon guessed that she should have found out what happened to her friend by now.
"Claire, I…"
"Don't say anything… I know." Claire raised her head and showed an ugly smile. She wanted to cry, yet she was straining her expression to try smiling, but it was really difficult.
She's not that close to Riya but they were still good friends in the university.
When she found out about these returnees, she had so feeling that sothing like this might happen.
But when it ca true, she felt that she still couldn't accept it.
"I won't leave." Leon pulled Claire close and hugged her tightly. "And she might still be alive sowhere…"
Claire didn't say anything and only cried.
Leon pursed his lips and thought about Pena who also left as he sighed in his heart.
For so reasons, he could no longer hate this selfish man.
Even if there might be other reasons why he chose to enter the passage at that ti, since he chose to do so, then Leon could only try not to hate him that much.
How could they possibly know that if these people didn't make this decision, what awaited would be their death?
In Continent Y, they were all constrained around the passage to prevent them from leaving.
Pena's island and everything he worked hard had disappeared and he had nothing left, so he chose to go.
Riya and the others chose to leave because they knew that this is the only way they could save those dear for them.
