After the whole operation was over, all the demigods from the Inazuyan Archipelago who had participated in this held a meeting together to discuss their next steps. The two demigod prisoners, Tylor and Zarco were also present in this meeting.
They started the meeting by thanking Elena first. Without her assistance, it would have been impossible for them to be so successful in this operation. So they were truly grateful toward Elena. After Elena accepted their gratitude, they started to discuss the main topics.
First Tylor and Zarco were asked about what their Thunder Destroyer Guild would do after getting the bad news of losing three of their top demigod rank members. After thinking about this question for some time, Tylor said that the other demigods members would most probably go into hiding or would try to stay away from the Inazuyan Archipelago for some time.
But there was one person who was very peculiar and both of the powerhouses had no idea what this colleague of theirs would do. It was a lady named Vitaly and she had some kind of grudge against the whole Inazuyan Archipelago.
This lady was quite a ferocious person. So there was a high possibility that even with all the danger, she would not leave the Inazuyan Archipelago. She was also quite powerful, so there was a high possibility that in the near future, she would become a dangerous opponent for the administrators.
That was why, the demigods from the Inazuyan side wanted to take care of her as soon as possible. So they asked the two captives about her location. But they smiled with distress and shook their heads. There were still four demigods remaining in the Thunder Destroyer Guild but none of them could be contacted for the time being.
Only the true leader and the deputy leader were able to sent an emergency message to all the demigods and even that could be completely ignored by them. After killing Dongding, Zarco had tried to contact all of them through that method but none of them had responded. So currently there was no way for Zarco or Tylor to find the others.
This was a worrisome problem but the Thunder Destroyer Guild would not be able to do much with almost half of their demigods taken out. So even if they want to start the war, it would not happen for at least a few more centuries.
This was exactly what Elena wanted. So with the capture and death of the demigods from the Thunder Destroyer Guild, she had already completed her objective to stop the war for the time being. As for what would happen in the future, Elena was sure excellent people like Kizuna and the shrine maidens would be able to take care of it.
According to Elena's calculations, even without her meddling, the Inazuyan Archipelago would have been able to again be victorious in the upcoming war. The leader of the Thunder Destroyer Guild and the lady that Tylor and Zarco had mentioned were both strong and had special cards that even a level 600 being would find troublesome. But the waters of the Inazuyan Archipelago was deeper than what they had speculated and they would have ultimately failed.
But in that process, hundreds of thousands of Lightning Phantom Demons would have died. Several islands of the Archipelago would also have disappeared. That was something Elena did not want and so she accelerated the inevitable defeat of the Thunder Destroyer Guild while keeping the damage to minimum.
...
After the meeting was over, Elena, Kizuna, Zarco and Hiraki held a smaller private meeting. Hiraki was a level 580 powerhouse and was the strongest person who took part in this operation. Without his presence, even with their superior numbers, the other demigods would have not been able to defeat someone as strong as Tylor.
As for the subject of this meeting, it was to decide what would happen to Zarco next. Tylor was not insanely hated by the people of the Inazuyan Archipelago, so he could work here and could use his strength for the benefit of the islands.
But that was not the case for Zarco. When he was almost getting mad while enduring the pain from the death energy, he had committed quite a lot of horrific crimes. So the people of the Inazuyan Archipelago would never be able to look at him without hatred even after knowing about his circumstances.
So the best possible solution regarding Zarco was to execute him. Zarco himself had suddenly became very apathetic to life and would most probably not put much resistance against his execution.
But Hiraki felt that killing someone as talented as Zarco was a waste of valuable material. So he was suggesting that Zarco should be put to use as a researcher for the Inazuyan Archipelago while hiding his identity. Hiraki was sure that the alchemists of the Archipelago would learn a lot from someone as experience as him.
But Elena was the biggest contributer to the capture of Zarco and how he easily co-operated with them. That was why, they left the final decision about his future to her. If Elena wanted to kill him off, they would not complain about it.
What Zarco had done was really terrible and killing him would not make Elena to feel bad. But Zarco had shown that he was now capable of changing himself for the better and Elena was also sure that with the disappearance of his pain, he would not continue doing terrible things in the future.
That was why, she decided to spare his life. But to make up for all his sins, Zarco was told to regularly help the people of the Inazuyan Archipelago as much as he could. Elena also advised him to take care of the families who had suffered from his activities. Other than that, Elena told him to live as he wanted.
Zarco bowed his head to Elena in gratitude. No one wanted to die for nothing. Currently Zarco was not scared of death but if he could, he would want to enjoy his pain free life for a bit longer. As for helping others out, before his misfortune, Zarco was even known a saint by a lot of people. So he was already planning to do just that.
...
After Elena was done with everything, she decided to return to the first island to meet with the S rankers and the merchants. They were planning to meet after three days and with Elena going back at a slow pace, she would reach the destination at the perfect time.
So while enjoying the scenes of the Inazuyan Archipelago, she started going back to the first island but this time she was using a different route. As for her future plans, she was planning to visit some of the Thunder Shrines and to meet with at least one Shrine maiden. If she could also meet with the shrine maiden mentioned in the dream realm, that would be a very happy thing.
Just like that, Elena managed to stop a terrible war in her leisure time and even got acquainted with some of the top individuals of the Inazuyan Archipelago. With this, her future journey here would be much for convenient and restriction free.
