If this dire situation continued without replenishing their dwindling food

supply, the entire army faced certain doom.

“Land in sight!” The cry echoed across the deck.

“Land in sight!” The joyful announcement rippled through the ranks like a

beacon of hope.

Amid this surge of optimism, a subordinate burst forth with a crucial update,

“Excellent!” Emmanuel’s face lit up with relief and determination.

He immediately commanded the crew to anchor, their hearts swelling with

renewed hope. As they docked, a tense realization dawned upon them: the

expulsion.

order. Three thousand elite warriors from Dark Night Island swiftly descended

strength. Three thousand warriors were more than sufficient; even three

hundred would have been more than enough to overpower the island’s

entire armed contingent.
