Chapter 327 War Preparations



The other people in the office however all stared at Raigon with a shocked gaze. They were surprised that they were unaware of something like that, but that was nothing, the greatest shock was the fact that they had a way of defending themselves against a first evolution combatant!

"Originally it was created so that we could surprise our enemies and kill one of their first evolution combatants, unfortunately with the lack of a first evolution combatant in our midst we will be forced to use this merely in order to defend ourselves." Raigon shook his head while speaking.

"Even though it pains me to do so, there's no other choice right now."

"How powerful is it?" Reign suddenly asked Raigon.

"Enough to ensure our safety, perhaps not enough to kill a first evolution combatant, but fighting off one shouldn't be a huge issue, that coupled with you and another top tier combatant we have should be enough to give us a victory."

"Another?"

"That person is currently traveling here, he should arrive before the enemy." Raigon's words made everybody at the table stare at him in response. The reason for that was simple, the person Raigon was referring to was none other than the last top-tier combatant whose power was equal to Reign and Lico.

'Old man, can you somehow allow me to talk with him telepathically?' Reign quickly asked Aethion.

"Telepathically?" Aethion repeated before thinking about it. "Yes, I can."

'Do it now.'

As soon as Reign finished his words he was able to feel a weird sensation, after a mere moment he felt a kind of connection with Raigon who seemed to be oblivious to it.

'Can you wound the enemy?'

The voice in Raigon's head suddenly jolted him, luckily nobody seemed to notice it, but Raigon quickly stared at Reign who looked at him with a serious expression.

'Just think of me and say something, that's how you can talk to me as well.'

'I see, well, if we use everything we have then yes, yes I can.'

'And how powerful is that person, amongst the first evolution combatants?'

'In terms of strength, he's probably amongst, if not the weakest in the area.'

'Good, now just play along.'

"Raigon, how many times can you use that countermeasure anyway?" Reign's question was like a bomb to the ears of everyone present, it was obvious to them that something like that is definitely something that Raigon wouldn't answer, to even just ask it was borderline insane.

"Once, we can only use it once," Raigon answered Reign. His answer left everyone in shock, they couldn't understand why Raigon would divulge such important information to Reign, but before they could even continue thinking, Dain's angry voice jolted them awake.

"Everybody out!"

As soon as people heard Dain's shout they all stood up, simply glancing at Dain was enough to tell them just how angry the man was. Without any words of complaint, all of them started walking toward the door and in a minute only Dain, Ilas, Lieara, Raigon and Reign were left in the office.

"Really now." Ilas sighed as he looked at Dain while Lieara simply glanced at Reign and Raigon without commenting.

"Are you out of your freaking mind boy?!" Dain shouted at Reign before turning toward Raigon, "And you, what in the world were you thinking, telling everyone such classified information, there's a big chance that one of those guys is a spy, you know?!"

Raigon simply stared at the angry Dain, the bearded man stared back until his expression suddenly changed.

'Wait, that is a good question, why would Raigon of all people actually do something like this?' Dain's anger was soon replaced by confusion as he looked at Raigon and Reign.

"Wait, don't tell me-"

"Yup." Reign simply said as he looked at Dain with a calm face.

"So, what plan do you have?" Raigon suddenly asked Reign as the other three all glanced at him. For Raigon to actually ask Reign about a plan was something none of them expected, not only was Raigon the de-facto leader of the fortification but his strategic mind and planning were widely considered to be the best in the whole area.

"It's simple, hit the first evolution combatant with everything you have, and I mean everything." Reign said before taking a small pause in order to look at everybody before continuing further, "If you can injure the enemy and make it use up a large part of mana and stamina they will probably retreat in order to recuperate before attacking us again since they know we can only do it once."

"After you manage to injure the enemy, just leave the rest to me, I'll make sure they won't be able to leave the battlefield alive."

"You?!" Dain erupted once again, he didn't know why exactly Raigon seemed to trust Reign so much, even to the point of making a secret plan with him and spilling one of the closest guarded secrets of the fortification, but to put all of their hopes on not defeating, but killing a first evolution combatant on someone who had just arrived here was ridiculous.

"Do you know what kind of power first evolution combatants even have?!" Dain once again asked Reign.

"Not really, but if the commander can do what I asked, I am quite confident of being able to defeat one."

"How much did you use back then?" Raigon suddenly asked Reign.

"Hmmm?"

"Your full power, I know you were holding back, so how much of it did you use during the battle back then?"

"About 50%, give or take." Reign's words came as a shock to everyone, they all knew that he hadn't gone truly all out during the previous battle, but to hear that he was only using half of his strength was truly shocking.

One should know that Reign hadn't used any of his weapon skills during the fight. His lightning and the mark left by Zeus were the only two things he had activated during the battle. Even though his broken sword was a rank B weapon, after activating its power it would become rank S for some time and the bonus it gave was a powerful one. The katana, on the other hand, would allow Reign to gain the power of the stars which would increase his power tremendously, even though it wasn't as potent as before it was still quite incredible.

It seemed that even rank A weapons had a limit to them. The more powerful Reign became, the less of a boost the katana would offer after using the skill, at first the smaller boost was almost negligible, but right now, instead of his stats being triple like they were the first time he had used it, they were doubled. It was still a powerful boost however as having double the stats was nothing to scoff at, but Reign was a bit concerned over how much weaker the boost would become in the future.

"Then, it may very well be possible," Raigon said as he looked at Reign. If they could manage to kill the first evolution combatant today then that would not only balance out the power between the coalition and the kingdom once again, but it would also bring chaos to the coalition as one kingdom would be left much weaker compared to the others.

With the chaos that would ensue in the coalition, the kingdom would finally have some breathing room left and would be able to look into Lios's disappearance. Of course what nobody knew was that if this worked then not only would they be able to bring chaos to the coalition, but Reign would be able to go through the first evolution. The power he would then possess would be enough to bring destruction to the coalition as they would be stronger than them when it came to top-tier combatants.

As for the disappearance of Lios, even though the info they had was small, Reign already had an idea of what had happened. He would be able to help the kingdom out after going through the first evolution and perhaps even finish his hidden quest.

The five people had a more detailed discussion and after some 30 minutes, all of them except for Raigon left the office. Raigon stared out of the window as he clenched his fists.

'Be safe father, we will find you soon, I promise that." Both of his eyes were covered by the golden pentagram as a holy aura shrouded him, if someone was to see him right now they would be shocked as the power he was showing was way above normal and could even be compared to Reign when he was fighting against the two army leaders.
