The rest of the summit seemed to drag on endlessly. Perhaps it was because Lane was stuck with the Allen Guild and separated from Damien, or maybe because most of the planned events were canceled, but everything felt so dreary. Even the hotel sweets didn't taste quite right.
Luckily, five days later, it was finally time to go back! Earlier than originally planned, but with nothing to do - even the entrance to the S-rank dungeon had been closed off to the foreigners once the situation inside stabilized - the Guild didn't want them to sit around pointlessly, when there were dungeons to clear waiting at home!
Lane got up early, and left the hotel under the pretext of wanting to buy himself a souvenir from country K. Why did he wait with it until the last day? No one knew, but no one cared! They had another more 'important' thing on their minds: Nyla being invited to meet by Damien Lennox!
