Chapter 213

Renu looked down at the lake again after hearing what the robed figure said. The ship carrying Romanne was departing the lake and heading towards Mentis now, and that meant the Lakes Tear was approaching the city.

If everything goes according to what you told us, there would be nothing better than that. But what are you going to do?

When the shaman enters Mentis, I will attack their base camp with my subordinates. Of course, I will do that after bringing the shaman closer to Mentis. If the allied forces are trying to spread the influence of the Lakes Tear throughout the entire island, then the shaman will have to come all the way to the center of Mentis. When my subordinates attack their camp, the allied forces will fall into disarray, and we can use that chaos to attack the shaman.

Renu searched the allied forces who were inside of Mentis right now. After his forces stopped their resistance, the allied forces came down effortlessly. The number of troops on land was already on a similar level to Renus own tribe.

It seemed that the robed figure had seen the same thing as Renu, so he said, The number of their troops and yours is about the same now. Given a bit more time, their numbers will grow. Even if you succeed, your tribe will receive a considerable amount of casualties; if you manage to retrieve the Lakes Tear, itll be a success.

However, the possibility of failing isnt low either.

That cant be helped because of the difference in power, the robed figure coldly said. Then, after a momentary silence, he asked, Do you perhaps have a hidden troop anywhere?

What?

Its fine even if its not a fighting forcelike, did you call them flame troopers? Its fine even if its a special power like that. Do you have any other power that you can mobilize right now?

Renu didnt answer for a moment.

You must have something.

But thats for a really important time

Are you saying that its not an important time right now?

Renu closed his mouth.

You are misunderstanding something, King of the Iron Tribe, the robed figures voice dropped even lower. It almost seemed like he was enraged. The fact that he called him by Renus title instead of his full name like the figure usually did made it even more so.

In the first place, you guys had enough power to resist the allied forces even without our help. The reason why that changed was that the allied forces brought in the Lakes Tear. And this is a golden opportunity for your tribe to take the Lakes Tear the sole reason why your tribe is losing. So, let me ask you again, King of the Iron Tribe.

Do you really think its not the time to use that power?

I understand, Renu commanded one of the soldiers by his side, and the soldier hurriedly ran down.

The robed figure heard the command and asked.Can the tree go berserk?

Yeah, we overloaded the tree of fire with our strength during the ritual and can control the trees power however we want. Currently, even the Lakes Tear cant block the flame troopers.

So, strengthening the flame troopershow much stronger would they become?

They would probably be as strong as the time before the Lakes Tear impacted them. If it wasnt for the Lakes Tear, they would have probably become much stronger than that, Renu said bitterly.

I suppose there are definitely side effects to this?

The completion of the ritual would be pushed back. This was the reason why Renu didnt want to use this method if he could help it. Currently, it was right to act according to what the robed figure said. If he the Lakes Tear into his hands, their victory would be solidified.

I see. The robed figure took out something from his belongings. It was a flute. He took the flute to his mouth and blew on it hard.

Beep! Bip! Bip! Beeep!

The flute let out short and long sounds that connected and repeated; it was clearly a signal. The sound of the flute was incredibly loudit passed over the lake and even reached the forest.

Renu stared at the robed figure. What are you doing? he asked. His voice sounded agitated at the robed figures suspicious behavior.

Cant you tell? Im sending a signal.

What signal?

I am telling my forces to move to their specific coordinates because the battle will begin soon. The robed figure calmly responded and placed the flute back into his belongings. Then, he told Renu who was glaring at him, Even if we are going to be enemies who will fight to the death in the near future, whats the point of joining hands with us if you are going to be sensitive and respond to every little thing? I am repeating myself again, but the reason my subordinates couldnt land on Mentis is because of your commands. If my subordinates were with me right now, I wouldnt have had to use this bothersome signal to communicate with them. Despite that, are you going to suspect me for just signaling to my subordinates? Then how should I move my forces? By shouting at them?

Renu couldnt say anything for a while. Then, he managed to come up with a poor excuse. The allied forces might have heard that signal. What are you going to do if they hear it too?

Of course, the robed figure was unmoved and answered, Even if they heard the signal just now, they will think its a command that you made to your subordinates. Now, stop talking nonsense.

Fine. In the end, Renu couldnt do anything but admit his mistake.
