Chapter 320. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [91]

The president nodded and proceeded with the story.
「First, let’s start with the heads of the four great powers. …To be honest, I don’t think their side leaked the information.」
「You mean, in terms of selling themselves out, huh.」
