Chapter 560 - Individual Aesthetics (1/2)
This period of time was totally disastrous for the Reformist Party.
Firstly, the Undead Army in the Grosso region. Although they were eventually exterminated, thousands of refugees were still homeless in the city. They used to have a home to return to, but their homes had been devoured entirely by the flames. Their only choice left was to wait for their fate in the city miserably. The conflagration in the Grosso Plain had burned up all the foodstuff reserves in the Southern region and the foodstuff crisis had given the Reformist Party a huge headache. Although the danger period had ended, they knew that this was only temporary. If they failed to search for a substitute foodstuff transportation channel, they would be in big trouble.
Due to this reason, the Southern Parliament had agreed to Baker’s risky plan. They had intended to attack Paphield in the shortest period of time. However, they were unsure if their side was too weak or the opposing side was too powerful because their attacks on Paphield’s defensive line had failed again and again and Baker’s battle plan had become the only lifeline for them.
Then, what happened next left the Reformist Party over the moon. Not only did Baker’s army break through Paphield’s defensive line, but they also conquered Callenbach City! When the Southern Parliament received this news, the room was filled with applause and the huge conference room became a sea of joy where everyone was grinning from ear to ear as though the darkness had passed and the bright future appeared before them. On that night, the entire Southern Port became a city that did not sleep. The civilians sang, danced, and celebrated their ‘difficult’ and ‘well-earned’ victory.
However, this dream lasted for merely a night. On the second day, they received a piece of shocking news.
The Northern 5th Legion [Sword Lion] has gathered in Feralas with 25,000 soldiers!
The Northern 3rd Legion [White Eagle] and the Eastern Plain 5th Cavalry Team [Wing of Glory] has gathered in Dagger Valley River with 20,000 soldiers!
And the Senia Family [Ring of Magic] Magician Knights has led the Noble Allied Armies into the Red Leaf Forest with 17,000 soldiers!
A total of 62000 King’s Party soldiers had surrounded Callenbach entirely from all directions and will attack anytime!
Was it because the group of rebels that Lydia had hung to their death was treated as betrayers of the pact and that was why they chose to remain silent? And Lydia dared to do that because she knew that her actions were supported by the pact?
But what exactly was the pact that they betrayed?
What’s the content in the Creation Pact?
Rhode disliked archeology, but he felt that he needed to understand the content of the Creation Pact. He didn’t wish to end up like the Reformist Party who foolishly thought that the world supported them and was eventually helpless and alone without any help.
At this moment, a female servant approached Rhode and gestured. “Mr. Rhode, please follow me. Royal Highness is expecting you.”
