Chapter 331

It can be said that, along with the spread of this image, those who had previously still harbored doubts about the 'Omniscient and Omnipotent Great Will' had completely dispelled the misgivings in their hearts!

The entire Ishugar, and the entire world, began to go mad, searching for fragments related to the 'Great Will'!

……

However, sometimes people's happiness is not shared in common.

Just as the whole world was getting excited because of the 'Great Will', in some far corner of Ishugar, quite a few people were already so busy they were at their wits' end.

The Magic Pingyi Society, the Council Hall.

Since the third reconstruction, considering the turmoil that had already swept through the entire Magic World, the newly built Magic Pingyi Society had begun to resume its original operations.

The location of the Council Hall was still in its original spot, but the people sitting inside the Council Hall at this time were no longer the same group as before.

The elderly Ouge sat upright at his desk wearing a councilor's robe, and before him were two tall mountains of stacked documents.

Looking at that piled-up paperwork, Ouge could not help but let out a sigh.

As the newly appointed Council President, there were many things he needed to take over. Added to that, the war had only just ended not long ago, and matters of reconstruction and recovery came one after another. On top of that, councilors were lacking, so now he was almost too busy to cope.

He had now gone a full three days and three nights without rest. If he were not himself still a Mage, sustained by magical power, given his advanced age he would have already collapsed by now.

At a time that was already this busy, yet another such matter had suddenly cropped up, immediately adding to the burden of his work.

However, he was also clear that, after experiencing the war of the otherworld, the entire Magic World, and even the world, was now at a critical turning point in history.

Therefore, he was not overly surprised by the appearance of the Monu Sect; in fact, in his view, the appearance of the Monu Sect was perfectly normal.

But precisely because of this, as the current President of the Magic Pingyi Society, he could not afford to let his guard down in the slightest.

Just as Ouge was thinking about how to deal with the Monu Sect, a loud knock at the door interrupted his train of thought.

"…'Go out and wait for a moment first, I have important matters to handle.'"

Without a moment's hesitation, Ouge waved his hand and continued thinking about the matter at hand, but before he could think for long, that knock at the door sounded again.

His thoughts interrupted once more, Ouge's brow could not help but furrow slightly. Just as he was about to say something, he discovered that the President of the Jingweiba Society, Makarov, was already standing at the doorway looking at him.

"Makarov, what brings you here? Please, come in quickly."

As the elder who had stepped forward at a critical moment and stopped the war, although Ouge was the Council President, he did not dare to show Makarov the slightest disrespect.

It could be said that after the war ended, Ouge and Makarov became the most dazzling figures in all of Ishugar.

But if the two were compared, Makarov was the undisputed savior.

After all, if he had not, at the critical moment, stepped forward disregarding his own life and exposed Blackbeard's plot, to say nothing of himself, the Magic Pingyi Society and the Magic World would probably have already been completely done for.

If Makarov had any interest in the position of councilor, given his current prestige alone, even if Makarov wanted to serve as Council President, there probably would not have been any problem.

"I have an urgent piece of news I need to tell you."

Stepping into the Council Hall, Makarov went straight to the point and stated the purpose of his visit.

"Do you still remember the Shinigami from the incident when we went to subdue the Akatsuki organization?"

"Shinigami?"

"You mean that Aizen Sosuke from the Soul Society, right?"

As Council President, Ouge could be said to be very clear about the information on the otherworlders known to have appeared now. Of course, the moment Makarov uttered the word Shinigami, that name immediately surfaced in Ouge's mind.

"What's wrong? Could it be that what you're talking about has something to do with him?"

"Mm."

Makarov nodded and said.

"It really does have something to do with him."
