Fang was smart to get that something was off. I had to sigh. It seemed I had bad luck this time. If not for the additional Hector continents, things would just happen the way recorded in the old records of my time.
But as the Hectors came, things changed. And that created such weird gulfs that never appeared here before.
And I had to deal with all of this.
This northern battle… It couldn’t be entrusted to anyone but me!
I wanted to play as a joker, moving from one battlefield to another using my teleport staff. I also wanted to join the fight at the Hector continent.
Fang and Sara alone wouldn’t be enough! Without the help of someone like me it would be a hard battle.
I had to take over this northern battle. So Angelica would leave without any assignment.
Also I could move the jumper directly towards there. This dude would be much better than any of my other generals if he took things seriously.
Thinking about this sudden shuffle in order made me sigh. I felt this battle would keep shifting like this..
[Where are you now?] I sent this to all of my generals. They responded with their current locations.
They needed at least ten hours to arrive at their designated posts. As for the watchful teams, they kept their duty.
Alex and Leo were supposed to lead them before the start of our big march. And once the battle started, I decided to scatter these teams around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey knew where the tunnels were, the big ones at least. So they would go there and watch over these tunnels.
If anything wrong happened there, they would notify me directly. I had a hunch that something big would come out from these tunnels.
The first to be discovered were Niagara falls. They were located near the new big gulf up north. It seemed out of pure coincidence for such big tunnels to be situated this near to this gulf.
My best guess? That bastard would lead out his forces coming out from that tunnel to hit my capital. And I’d just have to wait for him to make such a move before starting to attack.
Of course my army would be the personal army of warriors. I got lots of good warriors, numbering over one hundred thousands.
ɴ[0)ᴠᴇʟ I kept just five thousand of each warrior group, besides the souler army.
And I was waiting for another soldier from Silverlining. Hopefully he will be able to bring lots of them in time.
If I needed to, then I could simply open many portals and lead my big human army from the second Earth world to here.
One way or another, I had to land over that bastard and stop him from deploying his forces properly.
Such a move wouldn’t be expected by him, ending up in messing up all of his plans. It was just a simple move, but it held lots of importance and value without doubt.
It was like a single chess move where a check mate would be expected next.
Time passed fast and during which, all I did was to keep roaming around the areas close to that northern gulf.
I knew that my chariot was too eye catchy to not be spotted. So the enemy already was aware of my presence here.
[We arrived]
[We are in place]
[Waiting for the attack order]
[Boss, we are waiting for more instructions]
Messages like these started to come from all my eight generals during the past hour. The last two to send their messages were the two who were leading the front; Hilary and Isabella.
[We are there]
[My army is ready]
The two finally sent their words to me, letting me clench tightly over my glaive.
It was time!
[Get ready, we are going to attack now] I sent this message to the other six before taking a deep breath and sent to the last two, [Start!]
[Forces are on the way]
[We are attacking now!]
The two sent these brief answers and I knew the battle would burn wildly from the beginning.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFighting just the small forces stationed there? Humph! I wasn’t an idiot to believe that!
The moving tactics were left for these two to arrange between each other and their elite forces.
They told me while they were marching to their posts about their final plan. It was a simple plan actually, just dividing the army into two halves, one would stay behind and wait, and the other would scatter into smaller groups and attack the targets.
According to the layout they told me about, they would intersect the two armies attacking the frontline in the midzone. Doing this aimed towards having more options at this region, allowing the two to move more forces from the frontline to support any hot zone.
[You were right! There are lots of gates popping up everywhere my boys went!]
[Lord, we got lots of incoming monsters and weird looking races who are coming out from large number of portals]
The two sent these expected messages, letting me faintly smile.
I knew none of them took my words seriously before this moment. I relayed the news to the rest of the generals before giving two orders to two of them.
[Move closer to Hilary’s army] I sent this to the spearhead, letting him move closer to the second half of Hilary’s army.
As for Lily, I sent her the order to move closer to Isabella’s army.
I arranged this on purpose. When I decided to stay up north, I shuffled the order of the two armies, letting Hilary take the northern half while Isabella would take the southern one.
Like this, I could use the help of Hilary if things went hectic up north and around the capital.
The early moment of this big war seemed to be much more brutal than what the generals thought.
Messages of the update of the frontline fight kept pouring non-stop from the two generals out there. The size of monsters and mercenary races was just out of their control, forcing them to push more reinforcements to many spots during the first six hours.
But on the bright side, many towns and cities fell under my forces’ control.
