Summary
Souma thinks about how Georg Carmine gathered all the corrupt nobles in one place for Souma to take them all down. Glaive Magna told the court of this act and how the noble's smuggled money would come out as a result. Souma was confused on why Georg had faith in him and during his last warning Georg mentioned leaving something behind for the next generation. Because Georg's secret was kept even from Castor and his daughter, they rebelled too.

Gaius and Julius bring back their siege despite Altomura's gates being shut tight. One of the Amidonia's soldiers comes back saying that Excel Walter was spotted on the castle wall. Julius realizes the aim that Altomura was bait. Excel Walter summons a large broadcast of Souma that also appears in the major cities of the Elfrieden Kingdom. Souma announced what happened with the civil war and that the rebellion is over. He also announces that Amidonia is invading Elfrieden but declares war on Amidonia. He mentions that they'll be taking Van, the royal capital of Amidonia.

When the broadcast is over, Souma shivers from the chills of the high altitude. He notes of Carla's chills, and she mentions she brings heavy clothes whenever she needs to fly on the wyvern. Souma mentions to Liscia how Georg baited Amidonia out and how Castor Vargas was right about Georg thinking hard about the rebellion. They have no choice but to move forward now.
