The following morning.
The war ended so quickly that the citizens of Olin City were still struggling to come to terms with it.
Only after the newspapers started featuring extensive coverage of the wreckage at the southern Crusader camp and the massive corpse of the Leviathan to the north did the citizens snap out of their daze. A joyous atmosphere soon flooded the entire city, spurring a noticeable uptick in business for the bars.
For now, Olin City still prohibited the general public from venturing outside, citing concerns about radiation from a neutron bomb explosion. Consequently, citizens could only gather in places of entertainment, engaging in conversations and boasting about the war intelligence they had heard from various sources.
Meanwhile, the members of The Azure Longsword Mercenary Corps, having exchanged their military merits for rewards, planned to leave with the Spartans at the earliest opportunity.
