Chapter 726
Archduke Olaf felt the resolve he had barely steadied begin to waver at the sight of that faint smile. His teeth ground together before he realized it.
“I will make my report, Your Grace,” Harald’s voice rang out.
Meeting Olaf’s gaze without a flicker of emotion, he pressed his right fist to his breastplate.
“The Calbrook Defense Force has returned after repelling the Archdemon of the Snowfields, Akihatara, along with countless minions, the avatar of an ancient god that descended upon their sacrifice, and the servants of the void.”
Only now learning the true identity of the monsters that had invaded the North, Olaf’s nostrils flared.
More than shock, what he felt was irritation. He had also realized that Ian Hope and the barbarian legion had once again achieved a feat worthy of legend.
Damn it….
His gaze drifted past Harald to the ranks behind him.
On either side of the brazier wagons, sacred flames flickered against the dim air. A handful of supply carts stood nearby.
