April 4, 2121.
Time passed like a white horse fleeting by, and suddenly, the weather became scorching hot again.
The world of mankind seemed to be thrown into a crucible, being burnt and boiled relentlessly day and night. Despite the seasonal cycle dictating a cool spring, the temperature during the day in Heisai State had risen to 52°C.
Many governments of small countries in Hei Province had to issue decrees to stop all outdoor work during the day, and some schools without air-conditioning in the classrooms were also suspended.
In reality, these measures were of little substantial significance. Aside from some wealthy cities in Etolia, citizens of other Sheikhdoms were impoverished. Many families were still using candles; during the sweltering heat, the most readily available and cost-free method of cooling down was to jump into rivers and lakes.
