How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 189 : The [Beast Tide] Disappears Again

"This is quite orderly..."

When the escort was about to depart, Elashia, who had disguised herself at Aelia's request, finally flew to the desert region.

The army was positioned to the north, while the refugees were positioned about one kiloter south of the army, orderly preparing to depart.

Originally in her imagination, these refugees who had received no training should have been in chaos due to fear of the unimaginable dangers in the northern frontier.

Finding Aelia's position in mid-air, Elashia landed beside her.

Aelia, who had noticed Elashia's arrival earlier, nodded and took out the magical amplifier, shouting loudly:

"Preparations complete, entire army begin return journey!"

Elashia, who had just landed, asked sowhat strangely:

"Why did you order departure as soon as I arrived?"

Didn't she give people any ti to rest? She had just flown for over an hour!

Seeing Elashia's sowhat dissatisfied expression, Aelia said seriously:

"Your Majesty, if you're tired, there are carriages in the army, but we must depart now no matter what."

Elashia was sowhat puzzled.

"Why must we depart now?"

Although the current ti was indeed sowhat urgent, it wasn't urgent to this degree, right?

Seeing Elashia's puzzled expression, Aelia explained:

"Your Majesty, the reason I asked you to co in disguise and conceal your identity is actually for this reason."

"For our operation this ti, the most important thing is order."

"And the greatest threat to order..."

Aelia looked at Elashia,

"Actually isn't the magical beasts, but you."

"If these desert refugees knew you had also co, they would definitely be excited!"

"That would directly disrupt order."

"When the leader arrives, we couldn't possibly depart imdiately without any wait."

"So this way no one will suspect that you, who just descended from the sky, are Her Majesty Elashia."

After hearing Aelia's words, Elashia nodded approvingly.

"Good, good, you as military advisor are indeed reliable."

Although the goblins had finally been exterminated, the calm and flexible mind Aelia had developed during her ti independently exterminating goblins could handle military affairs very well.

...

"This is good... we've been walking in the forest for five days and haven't encountered any magical beasts."

Elashia's mood was extrely pleasant at this mont.

The magical beasts that had attacked Elasia at least every two or three days had suddenly stopped coming at this critical ti.

Thinking that this could avoid a large portion of casualties made Elashia extrely happy.

It seed the situation was still good...

...

"This... is problematic... this shouldn't be right..."

Now Elashia couldn't be happy.

Because—she saw Elasia's city walls.

Ten days had passed, and they hadn't encountered even a single magical beast!

Below the city walls was an empty wilderness...

No magical beast corpses, no soldiers cleaning up magical beast corpses...

The desert refugees had reached Elasia.

However, the magical beasts still hadn't appeared...

She understood all too well what this ant...

The magical beasts had suddenly disappeared for a full ten days...

This ant—the climax of the beast tide was coming!

This fast?

Logically... the beast tide attacks should go through early, middle, and late stages!

But now... they had directly skipped the middle stage! Directly arriving at the climax!

Elashia was greatly alard!

Of course, it was also possible that under Cecilia's command, the soldiers had quickly cleaned up the magical beast corpses, and she had just coincidentally not encountered any magical beasts along the way...

With such wishful thinking, Elashia quickened her pace...

She hoped to hear from Cecilia that the magical beasts had attacked during these ten days...

...

"Your Majesty, I must tell you—during these ten days, the magical beasts have disappeared again as if they vanished into thin air."

Cecilia's serious words imdiately shattered Elashia's unrealistic fantasies.

"This... shouldn't be right..."

Although in the storyline, the beast tide event was indeed a highly random major event, it couldn't be this random, right?

If the current magical beast attacks had disappeared, then there was only one possibility next.

The climax of the beast tide attacks was about to co!

[Calamity]-level magical beasts would appear soon!

And in less than a month, those two waves of the most destructive giant beast tides with [Natural Disaster]-level magical beasts would co!

Standing on the city wall, looking down at those refugees entering Elasia one after another with expectations for the future, Elashia's heart imdiately felt a sharp pain.

By bringing them to Elasia, had she brought these people from a hopeless hell to another seemingly hopeful but actually equally despairing hell...

"Your Majesty... please don't be too nervous..."

Learning from Elashia that the magical beast attacks would escalate again soon, Cecilia was equally nervous.

But she knew she had to comfort Elashia first.

After all, Elashia was the greatest hope for breaking the deadlock afterward.

Actually, Cecilia was wrong.

Elashia was naturally nervous, but she wasn't that nervous.

After all, she had heard enough bad news.

She was also prepared to die in battle in Elasia like this.

"It's fine, I'm not nervous."

Elashia looked at Cecilia.

"Relax, after all, what we need to face next isn't just the terror of magical beasts."

"But also the fear in our hearts."

She knew that from now on, Elasia would truly be unable to escape this calamity.

The beast tide event happening so quickly and progressing so rapidly was indeed unexpected by everyone.

Within a month, [Natural Disaster]-level magical beasts would appear...

And there would be at least two of them.

Elashia's [Doomsday Judgnt] could only be used once...

Elasia's fall... seed to have beco a predetermined thing...

"Lord Cecilia... you must prepare for defeat..."

Elashia had already prepared to die in battle in Elasia like this.

Elasia definitely couldn't survive this.

But the Iron Empire couldn't possibly repel the demons within these short two months either...

Elasia's fall seed to have beco a foregone conclusion.

"Lord Cecilia... please rember, if our defense line finally collapses, then please take the other surviving combat units and cross the western mountains to leave Elasia as much as possible."

"Don't worry about then... do you understand?"

Hearing Elashia's words, Cecilia shook her head vigorously.

"No! Your Majesty, please don't say such pessimistic things now!"

"And even if we really are defeated, I won't abandon you and flee alone!"

This was her most basic duty as a knight!

Heaven and earth are vast, but the lord is greatest!

But Elashia shook her head.

Her tender young face showed determination that didn't match her age.

"No... Cecilia, you don't understand."

For her, there was no losing or fleeing here.

Only death or life.

"Knight Cecilia, I command you as Empress of Elasia—when the battle line collapses... imdiately abandon and flee!"

"Preserve hope! Don't make aningless sacrifices!"

"Your Majesty..."

Cecilia only murmured, no longer voicing opposition.

For a knight, the Lord's commands were absolute and could not be violated.[ TN: Sovereign → Lord. ]

Seeing Cecilia's eyes that already had so tears, Elashia painfully turned her gaze away.

She knew that as long as she used this serious thod to issue orders, Cecilia couldn't possibly refuse her commands.

Looking at the sun about to set in the west, Elashia's heart was filled with confusion about the future.

She wondered how the war situation on the Iron Empire's side was...

Could Mother gain the upper hand in this confrontation between the two most powerful forces on the Abyss Marsh continent...

She really hoped a miracle would happen...
