Chapter 26: Declaration of War (Part 1)

Summary
Kelvin is baffled that both Melfina and Efil are sleeping in his bed with him. He gets up and meets the others minus Gerard on the balcony where they notice 14 intruders with the far seeing skill that Kelvin borrowed from Melfina. Gerard is protecting Ruka and Ellie so Kelvin tasks Rion with taking out the enemy. Rion is nervous but eventually accepts. Kelvin gives Rion a smaller divide of Clotho to act as a pseudo connection to the servant network. The thieves prepare to attack as they heard that Christoph was captured. Rion however is determined thanks to Alex's encouragement.

Meanwhile in Trycen, the emperor Zel talks with his children and generals about Christoph's capture. He makes it clear that he's going to declare war on the other nations.
