New Life, New Task: I'll Be A Mom Then!!!

While Eli and Kayden were doing their best to set up everything in the holy island, the war was nor mobilizing in full swing.

Many nearby territories around the Seirende Kingdom immediately mobilized their troops to head over the palace marked for the battle with the hidden camps of the Vanderford Empire and the Spectre.

The first three days obtained quite a good result, especially when it was General Farauld, Randel, Nathaniel and the two Grandmasters leading the major armies.

The Unified Forces of Green Wave, Seirende and their Allied Kingdoms had a very simple plan.

That is to drive away the forces completely in the Seirende Continent and push them back to the Vanderford continent where they belong too.

This was because they knew that it would take time for the Vanderford Forces to back away and also ask for reinforcement.

Hopefully, this will be achieved without a hitch so that they will now have the chance to retaliate and completely subdue the Holy Island and the Vanderford after rallying the troops and cleansing the entire mainland for a while.

The only thing that worries them is the depth of the planning done by the Vanderfords and the Spectre.

Emperor Valentin does not believe that they will be that easy to defeat when the two evil forces have stayed silent for years to plan. He may see that there was good progress to the beginning of the war, but he still repeatedly warned everyone that the Spectre may have hidden more cards on their sleeves.

Especially, when that one called Lord Raven has not yet moved, nor the Pope and the fake Paladin.

"Remember the time when our empire almost fell when I was but a crown prince? I believe that they have the means to turn things around… I dare not to let myself caught off guard with their tricks.``

"I agree as well…" The King of Rubino Kingdom, who was also Emperor Valentin's Cousin-in-Law supported his worries. For he has witnessed the dark times as well for his cousin in law and fiance at that time.

Hearing the two leaders expressing their concern of the matter, the other leaders did not refute. As much as they wanted to become aggressive, what Emperor Valentin made them realize is that it was not easy to guard the entire land against the force who had already terrorized them for years.

Apart from Seirende Empire who was known to have turned their entire land upside down to take down the remnant specter forces, their land did not undergo that drastic change.

Who knows if there were still members of the specters or their allies lurking around the kingdoms? If they dispersed their troops too fast, they might become vulnerable from the inside.

"I agree as well. After all, I could only send a few of my troops to your mainland while I left a lot to guard my territory." The Leader of the Lion beastmen also chimed in.

"So what's the next step?" The others asked.

"We can have the troops continue to surround the desolate wastelands and rescue the trapped forces on the ambush point. The reports says that the ambushers' target was the prisoners, and they have sent another 4 battalions of armies on top of the initial five positioned troops."

Emperor Valentin suggested but he did not dare to impose. The way he communicated this was like a proposal, after all the forces who could respond nearby were not his, but the allied kingdoms.

On the other hand the people the troops were about to rescue were his. As such this is more like a request and not an order.

The Unified forces went silent for a while, but it was not that long. That was because they were more taken aback than baffled to see Emperor Valentin request the rescue rather than impose.

"Dear Friend, Valentin, aren't we supposed to be the Unified forces? Why are you excluding your men who were in the ambush point by making such a request? Of course whether you request or not, it is imperative that we send men to where they were.

After all their sacrifices and battles paved the way for us to righteously start the war. For they have uncovered the evil that we have been trying to defeat for decades now!" The Elf King told with conviction.

All the leaders in the room, men and women smiled and nodded, expressing their thoughts were aligned to the Elf King's words.

"This… even so, I am grateful! You know how much the troops stranded at the gorge meant to me…" Emperor Valentin's eyes teared up.

The words they said weighed heavier in his heart, that is because the people involved were his family, his beloved sons.

With that, the Unified Forces organized the troops to rally around the desolate gorge, and through Leon's preinstalled teleportation arrays, the troops were immediately sent to the nearest regions where the ambush was located.

Some of them were teleported to respond to Kazimir's party directly, while the others where assigned to meet the stranded evil troops to the landmine area that was also set up by Leon's team before joining the fight.

When the troops arrived near the landmine area, they saw from the top of a cliff the rear army troops still struggling to get out of the landmine area created by the Crimson blades.

A day has barely passed and so they still were ont able to progress significantly.

Coincidentally, Nathan was part of the reinforcement troops assigned to this area. He represented the Seirende Empire as an envoy to liaise with the troops from an army kingdom.

"Before we entered the landmine area,  my father told me that we have to stick this little piece of paper to the side of our eyes.

In this way, we will be able to see through the arrays and avoid them. We can also use that to our advantage by luring the enemies to the arrays."

He explained as he signaled his assigned aides to distribute the paper spells made by Leon in advance to give to the troops going through the landmine area.

The Lieutenant echoed the instructions and ensured that all of the soldiers had one stuck to their eyes. When they injected a sliver of mana in it, it acted like a fine talisman and was immediately absorbed into their skin.

Instantly their view of the plains became colorful and they could not help but gasp in awe. What they saw was no landmine at all!

It was a sea of arrays intricately placed across the vast desert!

"T-this… Sir Nathan… are you sure that only a group of fewer than thirty people set this up in just a few days?" They all muttered in disbelief.

"Of course… That's the Crimson Blades we are talking about, they were as tenacious and reliable as their Leader. That's why they were able to achieve this feat no matter how hard it may seem to them!"Nathan proudly commented.

Having a brother-in-law as capable as Leon was not bad at all! Even he could not help but still be shocked by how he thought things through… It must have been hard for Leon to plan all of this and for his men to execute it in just a few days with few people.

"Now… now… Let's not let the Third Prince's efforts go in vain. We have to cherish this opportunity and punish the wrongdoers." The Lieutenant felt Nathan's queue and led the team to surround the stranded troops.

Simultaneously, the Pope and Rachana continued to head back to the Vanderford Empire ignoring the cries of the princes to stop for rest.

"Whine, whine! That's all you can do! If you only knew that your neck might be sliced by our loudness and not the enemy, would you still be that energetic enough to complain about everything?!"

Rachana wanted to curse and blurt out these sentences to the princes but held back in the end.

That is because she could not cause any trouble to delay the party any longer. Under the stern gaze of the Pope, she also could not utter any words.

"Your Highnesses, we have to urgently return to the Vanderford Palace and fall back for the meantime until further instructions from the sovereign have come down.

Now that the Crown Prince might be in danger, it is important that we keep you safe. After all, if all you have died, then what about the Vanderford Empire?" The Pope coaxed the whinny princes.

Upon hearing about the possibility of their main rival being dead, the princes' moods changed and they stopped whining.

"Then we shall head over fast as well! Oh right, I have a flying beast… we can all fit in it and fly for a few hours! We might be able to reach the coast in just three days!" One of the princes replied.

Hearing the suggestion, the Pope and Rachana became excited. If they are to arrive at the coast in three days, then their total travel time will be reduced to just one and a half weeks!

They will arrive much earlier than they have planned!
