Chapter 3-14

== Minori ==
The crew arrives in Chikyu in a swift journey thanks to the royal airship. Immediately they are graced with Emperor Yu's presence. He controls the tide of the conversation by revealing that he has sided with the Kikono and is blind to their wrongdoings, choosing to believe they are righteous and under attack by conspiracies forged by Minori Hasuke.
Minori is shocked and believes the council - something he has always hated - persuaded Guan Yu. It is another surprise to hear Guan calling them traitors and they sided with Minori. Perhaps Minori's preconceived notions about the council were wrong. Guan Yu ends their interaction by banishing all those present from his nation and shaming Rin Mayus for engaging in conspiracies.

The airship docks back in The Red City and they share the grave news with Empress Mayus. Strong in her conviction, Empress Mayus states they will go to war with Chikyu as their only option to stop the Kikono from freely operating. Preparations and planning begin immediately, ending with her calling upon Mizu and Minori to join her in planning.
