Chapter 290: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The? Bridge' Part 93
"We aren't really a fan of disrespecting the corpses of our enemy, so," Kayn waves his hand, storing all the corpses of the Freedom Fighters inside his Storage Ring, before handing it over to Wesley. "I will allow Wesley to personally bury them,"
All of a sudden.
"If it's okay with you, I'd like to bury my n myself instead of allowing a traitor to do that," Garvin objected. "I don't want their loyalty to just be tarnished by a traitor,"
Kayn looks at Wesley, waiting for the latter's response.
"I don't mind," Wesley agreed. This was a lot better than his idea.
"Alright!"
Kayn signalled to one of his n to bring the Storage Ring to the center of what's left of the north bridge after it was destroyed by the surging wave earlier.
The soldier ca and left as quickly as the wind out of fear that the Freedom Fang Brigade would kill him. Fortunately, they didn't do anything until he went back inside the walls.
Garvin sent a few of his n to retrieve the Storage Ring and bring it to him.
Similarly, Kayn ordered everyone to let them do it.
"In gratitude, let's co to a truce until tomorrow morning," Garvin proposed, showing his appreciation.
As expected, respect begets respect.
Although this was only possible because Garvin's character is honorable and dignified.
"Since you need ti to take care of the matters involving the deaths of the mbers of the Freedom Fighters, we'll give you that," Kayn made it sound like he was doing them a favor. In this way, he wouldn't sound desperate for a truce.
Garvin completely disregarded the arrogant tone of Kayn's voice and left the wall along with his two deputies.
"Looks like we've successfully bought ourselves enough ti for Lilith to return," Wesley was finally able to breath a sigh of relief knowing that they won't be pressured by Garvin's presence for so ti.
"Still, don't let down your guard since there's no telling whether they'll go back with their side of the deal or not," Kayn reminded. After all, these are mbers of the Assembly of Freedom they are talking about.
Moreover, in a war, there are hardly any concrete rules. Most agreents are rely unspoken understandings between the parties involved in the war. And in each war such unspoken agreent differs.
"We will be separating the soldiers into two shifts until next day, respectively the afternoon shift and evening shift," Kayn announced. "Half of the soldiers can go to rest now in their respective bankers, while the other half remains on guard around the walls and continue watching over the Freedom Fang Brigade,"
"Report every hour to any commanding officers in order to keep us updated of any changes in the Freedom Fang Brigade,"
Every soldiers acknowledges.
Since there was nothing left to do, Kayn led Jericho and the others to the barracks.
Upon arriving outside, he instantly noticed the fortified defenses around the barracks. It was as if they're making the fort their last line of defense in case the Freedom Fang Brigade breaks the walls and starts invading the Dream Village.
This was great, as they don't have to worry anymore where to retreat.
In addition to that, the tunnel that they'll be using to retreat outside the Dream Village was also transferred underneath the barracks, making it easier now to defend and at the sa ti slowly leave the village without anyone realizing.
"It has been a long day for us, so we'll take so rest. Wake us up if sothing bad happens," Kayn said before going to his bedroom.
Gilbert and Wesley followed behind.
"Alright, have a good rest," Jericho bid farewell and left along with the others to take care of other important matters. There was still a lot of things to prepare that they had to set aside when the Freedom Fang Brigade arrived.
Ti pass quickly, and soon evening ca.
Although an intense battle had just recently taken place around the Dream Village, the sky above the place still didn't change a single bit. It remained beautiful throughout the entire ti as if nothing exist that can destroy it.
Except, there is, now…
Kayn.
Under the cover of the darkness of the night, Kayn, Gilbert, and Wesley left the Dream Village. Needless to say, Jericho and the others are aware of it.
The reason why only the three of them left is because they are only going to check sothing out real quick and possibly confirm their assumption.
"Are you sure about this?" Gilbert expressed his concern.
"You are seriously telling that until now you don't think this is a good idea?" Wesley looks at Gilbert, feeling strange at the latter's reaction. When they ca to Kayn's room earlier, he was finally inford about the underwater cave system and the existence of a powerful monster called Kraken hiding underneath the Slumbering Forest. "If you ask , even without Kayn, as soon as I found out that you have this prepared, I will leave the Slumbering Forest wihtout a second thought,"
"That's exactly why I am worried!" Gilbert blurted in irritation. "The entire force of the Green Horn City is present in the Slumbering Forest. Though Old Mayor George is inford of our plan, he doesn't plan on telling anybody else until it's the perfect ti to do it, otherwise the Assembly of Freedom might co to know of it,"
"Do you think that by then we'll have sufficient ti to reatreat from the Slumbering Forest?"
"You are at the southeast, while the finale of the war is going to take place in between the northwest and southwest. What are you even worried about, your side is practically far away!"
"It's because we are close to the sea," Gilbert rolled his eyes. "Where do you think the Kraken would be going once it chooses to retreat? To the river up north?"
"Silence, we don't want any hiding scouts of the Freedom Fang Brigade finding out that we are outside the Dream Village," Kayn interrupted.
