Yuna managed to organize everything in less than an hour. The wounded began receiving treatnt, recovering through priest abilities.
Slowly, their injuries closed and their stamina returned. They were ready to fight again.
Ethan returned to the tent, resting while sipping his wine. Yuna was there as well, accompanying him and drinking wine at his side.
"When the war is over and you secure the Core Crystals, you’ll divide them evenly."
"Yes. That’s my decision, and I won’t go back on it," Ethan replied, taking another sip.
"You can take the Core Crystals from my team. We have more. Twenty-five Core Crystals."
Ethan fell silent, looking forward before turning his gaze carefully toward Yuna.
He had never planned for that. In fact, he intended to let Yuna and the Sacred Hall team keep their Core Crystals.
"No. Keep them. I’m confident LionArk’s total will be high enough after the distribution."
"I want to help you however I can, Ethan. Maybe LionArk in the Eastern Plains has already helped Sacred Hall relocate our city."
"This is the only help I can offer you," Yuna explained.
Ethan let out a breath and drained the wine in his glass in one gulp. If Yuna truly insisted on giving him their Core Crystals, he would only ask for them when the event was close to ending.
"Alright. I’ll ask for them later."
"Good. That makes feel better."
They talked about many things, not just the war but also the Eastern Plains.
Ethan explained that the Eastern Plains were the most fertile lands on the entire continent of the ga, far more prosperous than the Central Plains, which were mostly desert.
He was certain that if LionArk and the Eastern Alliance won this event, more cities would co seeking to join them.
The more that joined, the stronger the Eastern Alliance would beco, unmatched by any other. LionArk would rise as well, gaining fa, authority, and power.
This was his grand plan to restore LionArk’s forr glory, and now that glory stood right in front of him.
Sera flew back from the archipelago region toward the harbor. She had important information for Ethan.
She entered the tent from above, startling him. Ethan and Yuna instinctively turned toward her.
"What is it, Sera?" Ethan asked.
"I ca to report the concentration of enemy forces."
"How are they positioned?"
Sera explained that Redemption Sword’s alliance forces were divided across three locations, three separate islands.
The first island was being attacked by three A-rank guild forces. The second island was under assault by two forces, one of them Scavenger. The third island was attacked by two forces, one of them Redemption Sword.
That was unexpected. They were not concentrating their forces on one island but instead splitting their strength across three, dividing the Eastern Alliance’s attention.
Sera’s information was reliable. There was a possibility they were sacrificing troops on the first island so that Redemption Sword and Scavenger could focus elsewhere.
"What are we going to do?" Sera asked.
Ethan paused briefly, then looked straight at her.
"I already know what I need to do."
Together with Yuna and Sera, Ethan decided to divide their forces into three fronts. The largest allocation would be sent to the first island to block the three Redemption Sword alliance forces.
Five units would accompany Ethan to attack Scavenger, since they were easier to defeat than Redemption Sword.
As for the third island, Sera would be assigned to defend the city from Redemption Sword’s assault. Her task was simple: prevent Redemption Sword from breaching the archipelago alliance city.
Yuna listened and understood. She quickly left the tent and inford all units. Five ships would head toward the first island, while three ships would sail to the second.
As for the third island, Ethan planned to confront the Redemption Sword with full strength in a final battle that would decide everything.
All units acknowledged the orders. They declared their readiness to execute Ethan’s commands.
Two hours passed. A LionArk team mber rushed to the tent to inform Ethan that ships were approaching from the north.
Ethan hurried outside, his gaze fixed ahead as he watched them arrive.
But sothing surprised him. Out of eight, only six ships had co. That left him confused.
"Where are the other two ships?" Ethan asked.
"There’s bad news, Ethan. The city of Blazing Arrow... is under attack by Redemption Sword forces."
"Blazing Arrow? Jack?!" Ethan exclaid.
"How many of them?"
"According to the report, only three forces."
Ethan nodded. The plan imdiately shifted to maximize efficiency. By saving Blazing Arrow’s city, Ethan and the majority of his troops would sail there first.
"Luna!"
[Mode: Aggressive Soul Servant]
[1. Lunathera | Lv. 500 | SSS-Rank | Passive → Aggressive | 10000 MP]
Blue light radiated from chibi Luna’s body. She transford into an adult woman wearing a beautiful blue dress. A trident staff appeared in her hand.
Everyone was stunned at the sight of Ethan’s third servant. Even Yuna looked shocked, sensing that Luna was just as powerful as Sera.
"You called for , Brother Ethan?" Luna asked.
"Yes."
"Sera, go protect the city attacked by Redemption Sword. Luna, go defend the city from Scavenger’s assault."
"I understand," Sera said.
"Leave it to , Brother Ethan," Luna replied.
The two servants soared into the sky, crossing the strait in different directions.
Ethan turned and ordered sixty thousand alliance soldiers to prepare for departure.
"You will co with . After the battle on Blazing Arrow’s island is finished, we will strike the other two islands."
"Yuna, Nathan. You and your units remain here. Stay alert and inform if anything happens."
Yuna and Nathan nodded, ready to carry out his orders.
Once everything was arranged, Ethan commanded the sixty thousand troops to board the six ships. Commanders and team mbers from each unit joined the voyage.
Ethan was the last to step aboard.
Yuna and Nathan stood on the dock, waving as Ethan and sixty thousand alliance soldiers departed for Blazing Arrow’s island.
"Raise all sails. We move at full speed!" the ship captain commanded firmly.
Redemption Sword... Arthur... I will not let you go.
Never.
