To say that the leaders of human civilization were overjoyed at the conclusion of the Beast Incursion was an understatement. For the past seventeen years, each of them had to face the Beast Incursion as an existential threat to their border and their people. The number of close calls, the death and destruction, and the misery that it had inflicted upon the people of human civilization made it so that just a world without the Beast Incursion was nothing short of a paradise that they could only dream of.
The confirmation of the conclusion of the Beast Incursion represented the end of an era.
For the first time in a long time, the leaders of human civilization found themselves harboring just the glimmer of hope for human civilization despite having knowledge of the True World. The hopes of a return to globalization, to free trade and the restoration of the web of human civilization made them hopeful for a future where everything returned to how they were.
