"That's the overall situation," said Anna while crossing her legs.
Oscar's expression was much darker than before. He had thought he had known everything, but this was a bit surprising.
Oscar turned to Milfa. "How is Septa?"
"He has been reporting us all the information. Don't tell …" Milfa sucked a cold breath. The fact that they didn't get much information ant soone from the Demon Banner Army had been controlled.
"There is no proof yet. However, we will probably need to keep an eye on him. Our information regarding the Supre Devil Organization is currently being sent by him. He has been sneaking around, so there's a chance that he has been captured and turned into a demonic human. However, don't make it too obvious. We'll play it accordingly."
"In that case, shouldn't we need an independent third party to gather information?" Milfa asked.
"I have a thod." Oscar nodded. "For now, do it that way. After that, you are to go to the Ardagan family. I'm curious what Noel Ardagan has in mind. To think that the youth who was exiled to my army a few years ago has grown so much that he can beco my ally."

"I understand." Milfa nodded.
"On another note, the situation of the Tower Association is currently grim. If we move carelessly, they will use it against us and strip us of our power. We should safely assu that the enemy has taken over fifty percent of the kingdom."
Anna raised one finger. "For the ti being, I'm planning to visit the three elders to warn them while checking whether they have been controlled."
"I know." Oscar clicked his tongue. "I don't have a map right now, so I'll rearrange each squad's position. If we end up isolating ourselves, the enemies will realize that we've been aware of their movent. Hence, we'll only position several squads while the rest continue with their aggression."
"That sounds about right." Anna nodded. "Unfortunately, I can't think of a complex plan, as it's not my job right now. I believe that Commander Oscar will understand and make the best decision for the Demon Banner Army and the kingdom you swear to protect."
Oscar squinted his eyes. "Are you going?"
"Yes. The task is important, and I don't have a lot of ti to do it. Before they realize the Dark Lord and the Gem Lord have died, we have to finish all the preparation." Anna stood up.
Because Oscar didn't say anything, she left through the balcony as if she had never visited this place.
anwhile, Milfa couldn't help but ask, "Commander. What am I supposed to convey if I et Noel Ardagan?"
"First of all, it's probably because of your connection with Dimitri that Noel Ardagan trusts you more than . Then again, I once followed the Third Prince until he chose to point that blade to this kingdom.
"Secondly, Noel Ardagan must have reached the spirit transcendence rank as well. Those two have been growing at the sa pace, so if Anna has beco one, it won't be weird for him to be one as well. Having two Spirit Transcendences will be reassuring, but the problem is that the enemies are stronger than spirit grandmasters.
"While we are able to kill them, if they attack from multiple directions, we won't be able to protect everything. In addition, a single trap might kill us, which will be a devastating blow.
"Last but not least, I don't want to admit it, but in terms of warfare, there are only less than ten people who are on par with . Noel Ardagan is one of them, but our specialty is different. I am leaning toward a defensive battle while Noel Ardagan is a swift and decisive strike."
Milfa's expression turned serious. "Since you claim to be a master of defensive battle, you must have a plan, right?"
"Indeed." Oscar smiled. "We just need to make people admit they are demonic humans."
"Huh? But they're hiding from the people around us."
"Yeah. That's why my ability is useful." Oscar turned to Milfa and asked about his ability. "Answer truthfully. Do you have a demon crystal in your body?"
Milfa's body shuddered for a mont, but she couldn't resist the power. She opened her mouth. "NO!"
She snapped angrily, "Oscar, you bastard!"
Oscar shrugged. "That's my ability. Anyway, we'll be removing all the pests within the army first. Before telling you about my plan, I need to hear what Noel Ardagan is planning to do since his plan might affect mine."
"I understand. I'll go there. If you do that to once again, I might quit the army. I don't like serving soone who can't even trust and my ability."
"I know, I know." Oscar chuckled. "Also, tell Clara to be extra careful. Right now, Clara is the most suitable target. If she dies, while it does impact us, it'll hurt Noel more. Sotis, physical injury is much better than a broken heart. They will probably try to crush Noel's heart because he can't kill him right now."
Milfa nodded. "Anything else before I depart?"
"All the captains who have retired… I need all of them back. Even though I know that they have served the army and the country so much, I have to be shaless and ask for their help."
"Alright." Milfa exited the room after listening to his order.
Oscar brought up the map while muttering, "It seems that I have to redo all my plans."
…
After leaving the Demon Banner Army, Anna headed straight to et the three elders. He just hoped that none of them had been controlled by the demons since they were the last line of defense for the Tower Association.
The first destination was none other than Silica Valley. The Water Lord was closer to Noel compared to the other two, so it would be better to check on him first.
Little did she know, she would be finding a huge surprise in his castle.
