In Zovince, Emmanuel had been holding off Salem’s tens of thousands of troops with just two thousand Wolf Warriors. Despite being fully equipped, Summerton’s forces couldn’t advance even half a step into Zovince’s city center.

In the age of the internet, news like this spread quickly.

The longer the battle dragged on, the worse it became for the Summertons‘ Army.

“Commander, Congress has authorized the Tocvale and Northern Region armies to march on Zovince to eliminate the rebels! If we can hold out until tomorrow morning, our reinforcements will arrive!”

Late on the second night of the New Year, Eve finally brought good news to Emmanuel.

In truth, the authorization had been granted on the first day of the New Year, but they had been too busy fending off the Summertons‘ Army. Only now, after another successful defense, did they have a moment to breathe and relay the news.

“Alright, got it.”

Emmanuel was utterly exhausted.

From the first day of the New Year, he had been in continuous battle. First, he had faced Yorick, Aora, and Gwain alone. Then, after taking down Aora, he fought a mysterious black–clad warrior before rushing straight to the city gates for two more large–scale battles.

“Boss, the Tocvale Commander is Atticus Sheffield–Grey’s son. If he brings his troops into Zovince, won’t that be a huge risk?” Sage voiced his concern quietly.

“You mean Dragonicus?” Emmanuel frowned.

To be honest, he had met Dragonicus years ago, but their relationship was purely one of mutual respect- they had never fought side by side.
