Chapter 923
While Siegfried was fighting with the demon army, Irene led the 8th Corps of the Marchioni Empire’s Imperial Army and had already annihilated the border fortress of the Sacon Kingdom.
Needless to say, she didn't honor the five minutes she promised to Ganeva the Third earlier in their call. For her, patience was a virtue she utterly lacked, so despite her words, she couldn’t even wait five minutes to pass.
In the end, she ordered her men to bombard the Sacon Kingdom’s border fortress just thirty seconds after she ended the call.
The result of the bombardment?
The once-imposing fortress that protected the Sacon Kingdom’s border was now nothing more than dust. Not a single building remained standing, and there were no survivors.
All twenty-five thousand soldiers of the Sacon Kingdom stationed at the fortress were annihilated in less than five minutes.
But Irene did not stop there...
Right after crossing the border, she immediately advanced toward the Eternal Forest.
Ironically, she kept her word this time, as the 8th Corps did not simply march.
“Remove that from my sight.”
Upon encountering the first city beyond the border, the city of Horus, Irene commanded its erasure from the map.
