"I suggest that we go ahead and attack the Army in front of us. It is clear where they are going! There is no other Kingdom in sight for exactly 100 Kilometers." Eric was already able to figure out that particular fact, this Army's target to be more exact. And he doesn't just want to sit by complaining about their weak Arsenal when Pameres Kingdom is a few days away from being invaded.
King Xakro illustratio lll was actually dumb enough to send hundreds of Soldiers to conquer Pameres Kingdom even after considering the large millitary shortage the entire Continent faced because of the Snow Ignites, this is a terrible move and would greatly weaken bis own Alliance primarily if he lost. For what? Ego games!
