[Then hurry up! The war is almost over! I want to know what I'll get so I can plan things for the future]
[You are so impatient! But you are the legend! You have all the right to ask for whatever you want and need. Just give me a couple of hours, at most five, and I'll give you the good news]
[Ok, I can wait for five hours. Don't forget to send me the recordings of this war and the devices to operate these. Also I want more tickets, I spent two and going to spend more to prepare more for the upcoming wars]
[Don't worry, I already have five of such tickets, and will try to secure more for you]
[Great! Will wait for your message in five hours then]
I closed the chat and returned to watch the dull end of this war. It might have started with a big bang, but right now it was void of any suspense.
I took a glance around, in my chariot where many promising figures of my kingdom were. I got enough generals to give at least one hundred army generals with ease. At the same time, my biggest gain was in these faking weakness paragons.
Matte gave me a wake up call and made me realise how capable each and every single one of them was. But to make the best use of them wouldn't be easy.
Aside from them, the biggest gain ever was Stephen. He looked like a statue, standing there without any reaction on his face.
I thought such a fierce person would be unsettled and uncomfortable when seeing his people get slaughtered and enslaved like this.
But he didn't show any speck of emotion on his face, just looking around in a calm and collected way as if nothing happening around was related to him.
I admired such a mindset. And that meant he was ready to make up his mind and join me.
I feared once I took him to my second Earth world, he'd still feel conflicted and guilty about joining me, and might end up taking up his life.
If he decided such a thing, even someone like me couldn't do anything to stop him.
I returned to focus on ending this battle here for good. Even with the absence of any ability to harm me, the Hescos were acting crazy like moths attracted to fire.
They tried to hit my chariot but got stopped by my shield. No matter how hard they tried, they failed.
Seeing this made me realise my earlier rejection of Matte's proposal was right. Such ferocious fighters weren't that easy to convince using words. Only by forcing their backs against walls would they'd submit to me.
This battle lasted for ten straight hours. I was surprised by the great numbers of Hescos hiding in the tunnels. I thought the Hescos were only inside the hole, but the more I took under my control, the more who came out from the tunnels.
By the end of this battle, I ended up having at least ten million Hescos elites. The last stretch of forces gained here were all good fighters. I couldn't wait to bring them back to my second Earth and turn them into warriors and tokens.
But first I had to see how the situation was up there.
[Did you make contact with the enemy?] Since I sent Sara and others out, I didn't get a single message back from her.
She kept her silence, while this was indeed something strange.
[Hey! Are you busy fighting or what?] yet I didn't receive any response from her. That made me a little worried.
I fought here for ten hours, and just right now I cleared a path for my entrapped forces at the bottom to go up.
As she didn't respond to my messages, I took out my staff and opened a portal towards the surface.
"Oh! There is someone blocking the space out there then... Interesting!" I thought I got every paragon here. But it seemed that wasn't the case.
Only paragons would have artefacts. And from her weird silence all this time, I got the feeling that there wasn't just a space locking artefact in the play, another artefact was used to cut any connection between me and my forces.
But even if that was the case, then Sara wouldn't be in any danger. The surface was already filled with tons of my warriors and forces, with many places covered with my eternal shields.
Not to mention the central place around the hole opening was covered up with many shields.
If she faced a threatening situation, she could have easily retreated all the way to these shields. And if things were quite bad, she'd have sent me messengers to warn me about what was going on outside.
There were only two explanations for this; first the enemy only tried to stop my forces advance by cutting any means of communication between my generals and leaders, including myself.
If that was the case, then that meant the battle high up there was already in my favour. But the second option wasn't something nice for me.
It might be the total opposite to the first scenario. Sara and others might have gone forward too deep into the enemy lines, and got trapped again.
If I thought about Sara's nature, then such a scenario was the most possible one to happen. If she got entrapped again, then by cutting communication and sealing space she and her forces would be isolated.
And if they were surrounded like this, then they wouldn't be able to send any messenger for help. I clenched my glaive tighter while leading my chariot to the top.
"Something is wrong, lord?" From the side, Matte seemed very attentive to my facial expression and mood.
He noticed that I became a little nervous and quite angry. I wasn't enraged about missing a few fishes from such a hunt. After all that would make quite sense.
