Chapter 266: Arc 4, Act II, - 111: Perseverance of Lightning
"-We’ve lost communication and the last message reported in by the outermost companies were the same. Some sort of poisonous plague, flying creatures hard to identify and various plant-life sprouting out from the ground.
The enemy is quickly advancing towards Division One. All remaining Division One companies have been ordered to recuperate at main base and hold our position.
The reconnaissance parties Division One sent in emergency have confirmed the devastation of each company’s encampments and approaching enemy troop, but only in small amounts. It seems the enemy has also flanked us covertly from the north side.
One of our first priorities was to contact Division Six and relay the matter of magic. Should we request troops to be sent from Division Three to assist?" the radio crackled.
The Division General alongside everyone else had listened in on it all. He took the microphone and pressed the button, "Negative. Relay the information to the Army Chief Egebe in Division Three, but do not request troops immediately.
It’ll just be sending bodies into the fray. Notify Division Three to have troops at the standby to rendezvous with Division One. We’ll send the princess and her squad to Division One to handle the matter.
After which, reassess the situation and plan from there. If Division One is unable to hold ground, retreat to Division Two with all possible supplies and troops—over."
"Copy. Division One has already radioed the chief and will radio him again now. If there’s any deviation from your plan general, will notify Division Six. Out."
"Out," the general set the microphone aside. "Well your highness, you could’ve not arrived at a better moment. Princess, we will be sending you in immediately."
"I’ll go tell Feyan and Arabella," Fumeko turned to blink out.
"What about Rain? The lock isn’t here yet," Asobi halted the brunette’s steps.
"Yeah, I was thinking that. We can’t leave Rain to just be sedated. I don’t wanna risk it," Daiyu replied.
