It was the first working day since the Exordium. As expected, expert exologists were able to deduce what caused the planetary outbreak of auroras three days prior. While there was no direct confirmation from the Executive Secretary yet, the citizens of the planet rejoiced at the highly possible fact that the twelve legends were finally back in power. In fact, there were various celebrations prepared by the citizens for the return to power of the planet's guardians.
Museums opted for free entrance. Transport groups were offering free rides. Architectural and construction companies were offering services at half price. The Judicature courts were on recess. Companies were selling their products at discounted prices. The media were showing documentaries regarding the legends. Vacation packages were being offered at extremely low prices. Doctors were doing free consultations. Bank loans were temporarily being offered at lower interest rates. Members of the Arcanus Alliance, especially the Ten Premiers, got hold of the news and sent gifts for the legends. Schools held festivals. The army, navy, air force, emergency response units, and firefighters planned to conduct parades to celebrate the occasion. Overall, the whole planet was in celebration of the wonderful news.
The receptionists and the kitchen staff arrived together at the Eri Central Office early morning. After greeting the guard at the entrance, the ten shifted their topic to what happened last Friday.
"Goodness, can you even believe it? Their Excellences are back to full power," Sheryl opened the topic.
"I knew something good was happening when curtains of iridescent light were dancing in the sky," Belle was showing a smug look.
"But was it confirmed already? Did Jaeseok-nim release an official statement?" Ruth asked.
"Who needs an official statement when it was implicitly confirmed," Jasmin was certain.
"I trust the exologists on this one. Why else would last Friday be a sudden holiday?" Clouie pointed out.
"As much as I am convinced by the exologists' theories, a confirmation wouldn't hurt," Lucy stated.
"I guess it's time for the Ada to work incognito," Hana challenged as they entered the elevator.
"I'll look into it. I'll get back to you on that. I'll give you an update," Ada assured.
"Well, you better have something by lunch. I'm starting to lose confidence in your skills," Aiben dramatically sighed. She knew a riled-up Ada was an efficient Ada.
"Why don't you ask the legends themselves? Like you literally meet them every working day," Jay did a bombastic side eye.
"Why not ask Jaeseok-nim yourself?" Ada spat back.
"Because unlike you people, I know something you don't," Jay revealed.
But before they could pester Jay about spilling the beans, the elevator dinged open and Jay exited on the second floor. The rest gave up on extracting the information on Jay as Belle, Jasmin, and Sheryl also left the elevator.

"Yixing-nim, Yifan-nim is requesting your presence in the Horizon Conference Room," Aiben told Lay.
"Jongdae-nim, you are being called to the Horizon Conference Room by Yifan-nim," Hana mentioned to the legend of lightning.
"Chanyeol-nim, please proceed to the Horizon Conference Room. Yifan-nim is waiting for you," Lucy informed the chief executive.
