The faces of the various leaders turned grim. They didn't expect that the Underworlders would actually launch a full-scale offensive and from the looks of it, their army had already marched beyond the Northern Region.
"I will take my leave as well. Our empire is still facing the Underworlders. You guys should hurry up!" Another leader disconnected the call.
"May we meet again, everyone."
Not long later, a few more Level 5 Espers disconnected the call. They were the ones nearer to the Jasper Empire so they would be the first ones to clash with the Underworlders.
The remaining leaders also disconnected the call and encouraged their armies to march faster.
Aethelwolf stared at the darkening sky and made a decision. He summoned all the Level 5 Espers in the army.
