Verge of Fate III: Volume 2

Half a year has passed, and the journey is over. The empire has gotten its way. What Eiken and the others thought would end in their swift death only turned out to be the exact opposite. They were completely exonerated of their crimes. Eiken was set free, and the 174th emperor seems to have gotten exactly what he wanted. After discovering the truth behind the names on Nogafi's mysterious note, Eiken could not help but grow discouraged. He did not know the truth behind his father's deeds. But something isn't quite right here. Why is the emperor continuously calling Eiken in hopes of talking to him? What could he want from a 'lowly Yulafrean' like him, as the humans would say? And who the heck is this Emily, a name that seems to keep popping up out of nowhere? Eiken never did find out what that enigmatic phrase was on his father's note: the one about Mother Ore. And what's with Officer Gavin knowing everything about him? There's more to things than meets the eye. This, Eiken already knew. The feeling only intensified when Emperor 174 forcibly showed up in his small town, demanding an audience with him. The initial journey was only the tip of the iceberg. The real truth would be much more sinister.
