His two eyes trembled violently.

[What the hell is this?]

The information felt through observation. A large army was pushing forward from the plains near Am-san.

Its scale was incomparable to what had been seen before. From the sheer number of students, including commanders, spirits, and monsters trained and brought along from elsewhere, there were countless forces.

And that’s not all. The major forces of each group had also joined in.

Not only high-ranking students who had received the blessings of growth, honing their skills and experience over a long time, but also many first- and second-year students who displayed talents beyond their level.@@novelbin@@

In other words, a significant portion of the forces meant to protect the main base had joined that army.

‘What is going on?’

Why are the forces meant to defend the main base attacking here?

I had thought they might target this place.

But I never expected them to bring this much power.

There was no trust among the factions. While they could mark this place as a common enemy, there was no obligation from the alliances.

If they over-invested their forces and lost their main base from behind, their momentum would falter.

So, I thought they would attack casually... leaving some of their strength behind at the main base.

‘Why have they all come…?’

But they’ve come in large numbers.

At the front of the army was Hong Yeon-hwa. With a cold expression, she pointed towards Am-san and spoke cruelly, saying the hostages could be killed.

Nearby, Baek Ah-rin and Lee Ji-yeon were also present. Both of them, being special students with enhanced abilities, were in charge of the defenses.

However, they were at the front of the army.

Both of them had uneasy and sour expressions as they glared at Am-san.

Unexpected. The current defense lines wouldn’t be able to withstand this army. I could slow them down a bit, but I wouldn’t be able to stop them.

“What’s going on?”

Elia, who didn’t know what was happening outside, tilted her head and asked. Her warm hand had been gently patting my chest, but now it rested on my hand as it stopped.
