Chapter 250: Life On Line (4)
The Empire forces were now also getting ready for an official offensive. This time, they were determined to reclaim this land that was occupied by the rebels.
Unlike in previous times, the majority of the citizens now support the war against the Ford Domain. As to not seem abrupt for the civilians inside the domain, they also gave out some flyers and announcements that were sneaked out inside to evacuate to much safer places once the offensive and siege began.
This was truly the complicated side of the war; no matter what side, the civilians were still the ones that would be affected the most.
However, Spade couldn’t wait anymore for a better opportunity. The organization, or, as it could be said, the Marquis, was becoming too provocative and unruly.
If the Emperor didn’t respond immediately, how could he face his citizens? The civilians were being used as cannon fodder this time, and it was only a small portion of them as of now. But if this took too long, how many lives would be lost? And perhaps not only abled men and alphas but everyone across genders and generations.
Spade didn’t doubt this conjecture; with how the Marquis moved, there was a high chance this would happen.
So for these few days, Arren and Spade have barely seen each other. The alpha was always in the conference room, coordinating and supervising what was happening on the frontlines as a monarch.
Arren knew that Spade was extremely serious this time. The Empire was not called the Empire for nothing. Their military strength was the best for centuries.
This was still their home ground, and the moment they decided on a full offensive, they were really remaining true to their words.
"Spade," Arren called the alpha’s name. They were having lunch; actually, in the last couple of days, they never had a chance to eat together. But the plan and their forces were more or less gathered, and Spade stole a few minutes of time on his schedule to eat with Arren.
"Mm?" The alpha stared at him and waited.
