三个女人的秘密工作生活

Not long after Randy left, a loud announcement echoed throughout the entire Freedom City informing everyone that the Green Horn City has now officially declared war against the Assembly of Freedom.

The speaker continued. "As we speak, the Green Horn Village is attacking both Slumber Village and Dormant Village to the east,"

"As expected," Kayn already knew that Old Mayor George will immediately attack the Slumber Village and Dormant Village the instant they declare war against the Assembly of Freedom. This was because they have to be quick so that they can immediately send reinforcement to the Dream Village.

"Right this moment, our soldiers in the Hush Village are preparing for a counterattack. In thirty minutes, they will launch an attack on the Dream Village. At the same time, our forces stationed in the Daze Village will split into two forces, the main force will attack the Drowsy Village, while the second force will act as the reinforcement for the Hush Village,"

"Everyone, please go to your respective station,"

The announcement ended.

"This is bad!" Gilbert became alarmed. "Both Jericho and Master Khalid are in Dream Village, there's no one left to command the Herald Guild in the Drowsy Village,"

"Jericho should have prepared already for this kind of scenario," Kayn was confident that Jericho already expected the Assembly of Freedom will attack the Drowsy Village, considering the fact that it is located to the north of the Daze Village. In that case, the latter should have made preparation already.

All of a sudden.

"We have unfortunate news to announce. One of our scouts returned and informed us that the Drowsy Village no longer exists, I repeat, the Drowsy Village no longer exists,"

"Until further instruction, the main force will remain on standby at the north gate of the Daze Village,"

The announcement ended once more.

"That must be Jericho's doing," Kayn was certain about it. Though he is very curious about how exactly was Jericho able to make a single Village disappear in just a matter of a few hours.

"Underground," Gilbert realized. "In my recent visit to the Drowsy Village, Jericho informed me that they are currently doing improvements to the underground passageway in order to fix the flaw he noticed in the Daze Village. Perhaps this is the solution he found,"

"An underground village?" Kayn remembered the Evergreen Village. A surface village and an underground village. By combining the two, they can pull the trick of making an entire village disappear within a few hours.

"The only question is, until how long the Assembly of Freedom would fall for it," Kayn is very interested in knowing the result of such a strategy. If it is proven effective, he would take note of it for his territory once he enters the 'Tower'.

"It would probably not be long," Gilbert believed.

It was quite clear from the announcement just now that the scout from the Assembly of Freedom is still gathering more information about the unexpected disappearance of the Drowsy Village.

Gilbert added. "My guess is, it wouldn't take more than a day," He would be shocked if the Assembly of Freedom still doesn't find out about the underground passageway since it exist in almost every territory around the Slumbering Forest due to the influence of the Herald Guild.

"We'll find out in the future,"

They can't guarantee anything until the next day.

In the meantime, both Kayn and Gilbert decided to lay low for a while as they wait for the update of Randy's report. Anyways, they've already achieved more than what they expected.

As he waited in his room, Kayn would occasionally activate his charm to Randy in order to get an update on the latter's whereabouts.

Gladly enough, Randy is on his way to the Hush Village. Albeit he still didn't let down his guard.

When the thirty minutes time was up, a loud horn rang all over Freedom City, marking the beginning of the march of the reinforcement force to the Hush Village.

Although Kayn was far away, he could still hear the loud marching of their metal boots and the clanking noise of the siege machines as they moved forward to the south.

The long-awaited war between Green Horn City and the Assembly of Freedom has finally begun.

Contrary to everyone, Kayn and Gilbert took some rest. There is practically nothing more for them to do right this moment aside from waiting.

As if exhaustion got the better of Kayn, his consciousness slowly fade away to sleep. He lay comfortably on his bed, getting a good rest.

A knocking sound instantly woke Kayn and Gilbert from their sleep.

Kayn looks around his surrounding and instantly noticed that it was already evening.

Despite that though, the entire Freedom City was in clamor.

"Who's there?"

"It's Maria,"

Instantly, Kayn and Gilbert remembered that they were supposed to cook for Maria this evening.

Kayn nodded at Gilbert as the latter quickly to the kitchen and started preparing.

Afterward, Kayn fixed himself before coming to the door.

The instant the door opened, Maria bolted right inside the room and found herself a comfortable spot on one of the chairs for the dining table.

"Is it done yet?" Maria asked with an adorable tone in her voice.

Maria was like a kid that returned home after a long day at school.

"Coming right up!" Gilbert's voice echoed in the kitchen.

Good thing that all they have to do was heat up the fried chicken they brought from the cooking contest.

Out of respect, Gilbert also heats up the sweet and sour fish.

Not long after, Gilbert exited the kitchen with a tray of rice, fried chicken, and fish and sour fish.

"Here's your dinner, Madam Maria," Gilbert served.

"Stop with the honorifics. Just call me, Maria," Maria muttered as she grabbed the spoon and the fork.

"Alright, Maria," Kayn smiled.

In the next moment, Maria started devouring the food on the table, implying her impatience and hunger all this time.

It didn't take long for Maria to finish everything on the table, including the sauce. She quickly wiped her mouth with a tissue that Gilbert kindly provided her.

Once she was done with that, Maria walked to the sofa in the living room and made herself at home.

"Come, sit," Maria motioned her hand for both Nyak and Gilbert to sit down.

Kayn instantly felt that something was wrong. Still, he went to one of the chairs and sat on it along with Gilbert.

The duo shared an unspoken understanding, readying themselves for whatever surprise awaits them.

"So, Kayn and Gilbert, how's your stay in the Freedom City?" Maria blurted out.
