"It all boils down to one thing—the absence of the figure who was pivotal in humanity's previous victories against the Demon Race: the sword hero, Leon Kruger."
Upon hearing this, Arhsley was stunned for a moment. Her eyes slowly narrowed as she looked at Edward and asked, "Are you saying that the current suppression of humanity's forces is because my brother, Leon Kruger, is absent? Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"
"I mean, humanity's forces have two other heroes who are just as strong as my brother: Valen and Luna. In addition, they have Natasya, the undefeated female general, and Rain Violet, the Great Mage, whose abilities and talents surpass those of our Great Mage, Victor. This should allow them to easily hold their ground or at least draw against the Demon race's forces, right?"
"Furthermore, the war planning is under the command of Jim Terra, renowned for his cunning and unexpected tactics."
