Chapter 14
“Silence” Alron’s furious shout reverberated through the chaoticmand room
In the chaoticmand room resembling a marketce, calm was restored with Alron’s furious shout.
Alron’s piercing gaze swept across the room, his eyes shing like lightning as he locked eyes with
each Warrior. The weight of his authority and determination was palpable,pelling them to submit to
hismand. The room was filled with an air of anticipation as they waited for Alron’s next words,
“Gentlemen,” Alron’s voice resonated with a calm yet resolute tone, cutting through the silence. The
great battle is imminent. Save your energy and prepare for war against Avaloria.”
Alron spoke calmly, then continued, The War of the Hundred Kingdoms will begin in seven days. For
this campaign, Ive decided tounch an attack three days in advance.”
A murmur of surprise rippled through the room. A Warrior couldn’t contain his curiosity and asked,
“Alron, whyunch an attack on Avaloria three days early?”
The inquisitive Warrior was Pierre Young from Crestonia.
Pierre’s question mirrored the thoughts swirling in the minds of the other Warriors. Dozens of pairs of
puzzled eyes turned toward Alron, secking an exnation for his strategic decision.
Alron, tapping his fingers on the table, said solemnly. The nations you represent were defeated by
Avaloria in thest century, even two centuries ago in the War of the Hundred Kingdoms. Have you
ever thought about why?”
Alron’s eyes carefully scanned the room, observing the reactions of each Warrior.
He saw the realization dawning on their faces, the introspection taking hold. The room filled with a
contemtive silence.
Soon, a realization permeated the minds of the Warriors. In all the wars waged against Avaloria in the
past, their nations had never seemed to emerge victorious.
It was a bitter pill to swallow, a recurring humiliation that they had pushed to the back of their minds.
They refused to confront it head-on.
In that moment, Simon, a seasoned Warrior, couldn’t help but smile. His voice cut through the silence,
carrying a glimmer of hope. “You mean to take them by surprise and catch them off guard?”
Alron’s eyes gleamed with a hint of cunning as he nodded in response to Simon’s astute observation
“Exactly. Avaloria has a
ying. Take them by surprise and catch them off guard.”
A renewed sense of determination swept through the room as Alron continued, his voice filled with
conviction. “ording to reliable intelligence, Avaloria currently has only the Frostfire Legion guarding
the Northern Territory. If weunch an attack in advance, with our superior forces, we can break
through their defenses and seize control of the Northern Territory,
On the contrary, if another legion from Avaloria arrives, the pressure on us attacking the Northern
Territory will significantly increase
After Alron finished speaking a Warrior from Zexonia, Matthew Martin, spoke up, “Alron, you’re
overthinking it. A. to ourtest intelligence from Zexonia, there is internal discord in Avaloria. Apart from
the Frostire Legion, no seconsi legion is willing to guard the Northern Territory.
“So, your concern is unnecessary. The om iell into a hushed silence as Matthew’s words hung in the
air.

The weight of Matthew’s warning settled upon the room, causing the Warriors to once again delve into
deep thought. They

realized the potential risks of provoking Avaloría prematurely and the dire consequences it could entail.
“In that case,” Alron spoke, his voice firm and decisive, “let’s secretly send a Warrior to infiltrate the
Northern Territory and gather intelligence,
“If Avaloria has only the Frostfire Legion guarding the Northern Territory, then three dayster, we’ll
launch the attack ahead of schedule.
“Otherwise, we’ll stick to the original n and abide by the agreed-upon start of the war.”
Alron’s statement carried the weight of authority, and the Warriors nodded in agreement.
As for sending a Warrior to infte the Northern Territory and gather intelligence, he already had a
candidate in n
Yvette, a renowned Warrior from Eldoria’s Enduring, was the perfect choice.
After all, Eldoria’s Enduring had a reputation worldwide.
And when Yvette heard the order, she readily epted it.
Spending every day among a group of men had be tiresome for her, and the prospect of venturing
into Avaloria intrigued her.
Besides, she had heard that Avaloria’s men were handsome and formidable Warriors.
Most importantly, they were kind-hearted and knew how to be considerate.
Therefore, Yvette, who had long yearned for Avaloria, willingly took on the mission. She changed into a
set of stealthy clothing and quietly left the territory of the Punishers without anyone noticing
Meanwhile, about a hundred miles northwest of the defensive line constructed by the Frostfire Legion,
in a barren valley.
Tens of thousands of soldiers from the Heavenrage Legion appeared.
Then, under the leadership of ric, Cornelius, Duncan, and the other six generals, they split into three
teams and quickly left the valley.
Most of the Heavenrage Legion’s soldiers had been sent by Xavier, and at the moment, only Barnaby
and five thousand soldiers remmed by his side.
“Mr. Cavanaugh, someone ising
Since they arrived in the Northern Territory, Barnaby’s address for Xavier had changed.

As he spoke, several soldiers in the battle attire of the Frostfire Legion apanied a middle-aged in
to Xavier’s side.
He was Jacob, the Warrior in charge of the Frostfire Legion.
“KL, it has been a long time since we met.
“Mr. Wright, it’s been a while.
Xavier looked at Jacob, nodding and smiling.
Jacob, looking at Xavier, who had reached the same height as himself, seemed a bit dazed.
After all, in the entire Avaloria, individuals with Warrior-level strength before the age of thirty were
extremely rare.
Xavier was one of them. He was just a twenty-seven-year-old Warrior
But he was extraordinarily glied, a trur monster
The Cavanaugh family’s descendants are getting stronger one generation after another.”
Muttering to himself, Jacob shook off his thoughts and tentatively asked, “Kid, how many people did
you bring?”
When he heard this, Xavier’s eyes showed a hint of ambiguity. Pointing to the five thousand soldiers
behind him, he said, “Not many, just five thousand.”
Jacob’s face turned pale, and he sighed, “Five thousand. It is better than none.”
Whileforting himself, he couldn’t help but recall the phone call from Ronald two hours ago,
Reinforcements had arrived.
At that moment, Jacob was overjoyed
And when he learned that the reinforcements were from Xavier’s Heavenrage Legion, his joy
multiplied.
However, now that he heard Anvier say he brought only five thousand soldiers, Jacob’s mood
plummeted.
Xavier observed Jacob’s reaction but pretended not to notice.
He had decided to take the invaders by surprise and strike against the unprepared Thirteen Nations
Alliance.
“Mr. Wright, don’t worry. Avaloria has faced numerous invasions over the past three thousand years.
“Yet. Avaloria still stands!
“Why?
“Because behind us, there is the support of fifteen billion Avalorian citizens and the protection of our
ancestors who fought for Avaloria from ancient times to the present.
“So, Avaloria never fears any challenge
“Even if we fall in battle, countless other citizens will step on our bodies to guard Avaloria.
“Even in death, we will use our blood and flesh to forge a new great wall.”
“Well said.”
At that moment, the shadow lingering in Jacob’s heart dispersed with Xavier’s inspiring words.
Until his mind became a nk te, Jacob felt a rising and fervent war spirit within him
Afterward, Jacob pulled Xavier into a hastily constructedmand room to discuss the defense
against the Thirteen Nations Alliance.
At the same time,
Six miles from the valley, Yvette raised her eyebrows, looking at the device on her wrist resembling a
watch.
It was an advanced search device, Eldoria’stest technological invention called the Universal Key
On the screen, of the five bars representing the signal strength, there was only onest signal bar.
“Ding”
With the clear sound, the final signal bar vandied.
“Damn it. No signal
