Over a month later, on September 1st.
The beginning of autumn, the first day of the Cool Month, and also the third day since Richard moved to Grey Stone City along with the army's command room.
In these three days, Richard had already set up his temporary research lab in his new residence and continued his research.

In the morning.
Grey Stone City, a former city of the Sika Kingdom, lay on the earth like a wounded, conquered beast.
You could see that all four city walls of Grey Stone City were damaged to varying degrees, with the eastern wall being the worst—blasted open with a large hole several meters in diameter, surrounded by cracked walls stretching to the city gate. The city gate on this wall was also missing, leaving a large burnt patch on the ground, where it was evaporated by a powerful wizard with high-level Fire Magic during the battle for the city.
