《Opening an orphanage in another world》Chapter 364: Aftermath of the Battle at the New Headquarters part 1

[At Malsia's castle]
[Director of Orphanages, Mira point of view]
Seeing the end of what can be say as one of the biggest tragedy that happens in a century (with the previous and upcoming fallen god awakening will be far worst), I breath a collective sigh of relief with Naoto, seeing that Kana, Birdie, Seo Ah and Kanji come out alive at the end of the battle. The total predicted number of casualties are lower than what any of us could expected, standing at low 2500 casualties mainly from the Knight, priest and adventures, who were considered martyr. The main factors would definitely be the early evacuation of the citizen, their cooperativeness, and the presence of high ranking adventures, those ten kids as well as the Holy Beast of Wind. The total count could be lower or higher, but that's up for them to count and tell us later
What strange is that, the watcher that display the entirety of event. Mr Filvisar mentioned it before, that those watcher from all over Achalasia were manipulated a hundred years back, and this time, it's no different. It's a shame that those devils cut it out right when Saintess Rumia tried to heal the gargantuan Zin, but a call that we make to Kanji confirm it all, Saintess Rumia save the day at the end of the day, even went as far as saving the experimented vampires and giants, through the Goddess Grace. Incidentally, Seo Ah also awaken a similar power like her teacher, albeit one of the less powerful one (and by less, she herself couldn't express how inferior her blessing as compared to Saintess Rumia), and this brought me to all the letters that I received by numerous party regarding her
"First, they try to get your hand on marriage, even went as far as sending their most "dashing" men to woo you, and now, they're trying to get Seo Ah hands..." [Princess Nurhaliza]

"Well, Seo Ah is already an adult. She stay in the orphanage just to help us out. If anything, I would like her to decide it for herself, but given how these letters are nothing but garbage attempts to seize her, or more specifically her blessing, I would start preparing rejection letters on her behalf" [Mira]
"Please write several for me as well. Somehow, they remember Seo Ah used to be here with Rumia and I, so they're trying to get their hand on her as well. Undoubtedly, the first prince will also try the same" [Diana]
Princess Diana from Estel voice and face full of worries can be seen from the phone, together with his father at the side. She looks extremely fatigue as well, almost having a heavy panda eyes like mine, and I can guess that she also have trouble sleeping at night before our conference this early in the morning, even before the chicken can wake us all up. It's a sudden conference, one that crossed everyone mind suddenly and synchronizingly, which is logical given how we all saw what happen. Speaking of panda eyes, not only Princess Diana, even Mrs Saga, The Paladin Aries, King Leogris and King Druser share the same eyes. Each one of us here has someone that are involved in yesterday incident, so getting a good sleep in nothing but impossible. Even after getting the confirmation that everything is fine, I bet none of us can stop worrying about them.
(Even when they told us there is none of the other powerful devil nearby, or worse, the ten commanders of the devil army, there is still issue of canine devils roaming around the New Headquarters) [Mira]
One of them is a major headache, and three of them decided to appear and attack the headquarters, and Naoto mentioned that there could actually be more in hiding, someone that controls the watcher from a far at a safe distance. He or she could take the advantage of attacking them when they're at their weakest. That's a possibility that one couldn't ignore

"They're still waiting to confirm whether the Hunter Devil is a genuine one or a clone aren't they" [King Druser]
We were previously told by The Demon kingdom, more specifically by King Druser and her two paladin (one is the current Paladin and another one is Mrs Aries), that the doppelganger Htilorez mentioned that the devil commander that they fought inside the challenge dungeon was in fact, a mere clone of the ten commanders. Meaning, the real ten commanders of the devil they fought the other day (one that takes the form similar to that of Mrs Aries), can still be roaming around, and who said that the devil hunter that they just fought couldn't be any different. That's why, the autopsy meeting is at utmost important now. Sadly, with both Saint Louis and Saintess Rumia on recovering, and the other official are having a hard time right now, the results might get delayed a bit
"While we are waiting, how about we discuss something that's important as well" [Princess Nurhaliza]
"And that is?" [King Leogris]
"Regarding the proposal made by Raging Water Magician, Charlotte and her Sea Serpent Project. Don't you think that we should consider giving it a go?" [Princess Nurhaliza]
The Sea Serpent Project, proposed by Charlotte to make a major upgrade on the communication stones that are connecting various countries and made communication using phones possible. It's an extremely valuable assets, more so now than ever, and when Charlotte proposed to upgrade it as to convert it into a channel that she can utilize at any given point of time, to summon her marine golems army and aid the process of defeating devil whenever they appear. It's a great idea and proposal, one that we can all jump into and agree at moment notice, should the risk of not breaking down the communication stones throughout the dungeons aren't they. That's why
"Can you update us about it? Mrs Lisa and Mr Qudus?" [King Malsia]
"Please, take the stage" [King Malsia]
"If we must" [Lisa]

The Drifting World
In the year 2104, a brand new VRMMO called The Drifting World is released promising realism, adventure, and freedom like no other. Follow Noah as he builds his character Chemistree, a Treant rogue, and uncovers the mysteries of a destroyed virtual world. Expect guilds, dungeons, skills, stats, and, levels as he progresses through the main story of the game and tries to uncover what secrets the game has to hide. Okay, stereotypical introduction over. This is my first time trying to release a story I've written, so feedback is welcome. The premise is nothing special, I just want to do it well. A lot of similar stories I've read make me ask "what kind of game would work like that?" Sometimes believable gameplay elements give way for a more immersive story, but I hope to make that as balanced as possible rather than going for cheap thrills. Well, I guess we will just see how this goes.
