Untitled Part 106

Naturally, it felt frustrating because it was impossible to know what had happened in the current period of the first round. We didn't even know if the current war would work in our favor.

I had no choice but to guess.

The face Kim Hyunsung was showing was far from the one that welcomed the war.

Even though this was an opportunity to end Jin Qing, the masked trash of the first round, seeing the expression on Hyunsung's face told me that he did not welcome this change in events.

What I could guess right now was that Kim Hyunsung's return was not at least because of the Republic, or the first round's masked trash.

What he was worried about right now was power loss—loss of troops capable of responding to the unknown threat that he had faced against during the first round.

If I assumed that a really big event would break out in the not too distant future, it would be natural not to welcome a fight between humans.

Not only Kim Hyunsung, but also Benignore and Elune trash were not opening their mouths.

'Is there a security level? Or can't you tell me, too?'

If I were to think that there was also the possibility that the masked trash might be on the side of the unknown, then it was worth considering. However, I still did not know what I should do about this now.

I couldn't set the right route to take. I hadn't heard of the start of the war yet, but these things had already happened.

The question now was how to solve this war.

'Should I even try to stop?'

If we were to fight with the spirit of death, the power would be reduced regardless of this war's victory or defeat.

Even if the State won, it would suffer great damage. Even if we solved the immediate problem, we would not be able to prepare for the future properly.

When a heavy silence descended, I spoke up.

"Hyunsung. This..."

"Yes."

"No, it's nothing. I have no idea what to do."

"For... now, we should hurry back to the kingdom to see the situation. We should also be briefed on how things are going. Is the kingdom of Eberia also under the influence?"

The elven messenger answered the question. I could see him speaking with an anxious voice, as if he didn't know much.

"No, but I have heard the news that the current troops are heading to the kingdom. Perhaps rather than a direct attack, the better idea would be to isolate the support forces heading to the State and Laios."

'That's right.'

As long as the World Tree's magic power was maintained, the troops would not be able to enter.

What they wanted was the isolation of the Eberian kingdom. They did not only want to decimate the troops; they also wanted to block their supply.

"What about the State?"

"Yes, Honorary Cardinal. The State is..."

"Yes."

"At the moment, the front line on the Dawan side has already collapsed, and I have heard that Castle Rock is being surrounded by enemy forces."

'Fuck. It's more serious than I thought...'

It was shocking news that the Dawan Front had already collapsed. It was clear that if Castle Rock were to be captured, we would be pushed back to Lindel.
