The next letter that arrived detailed everything that had happened today, giving further information about what everyone had seen in the golden crystals.
And just like yesterday, the losses of Duke Whirlwind's forces were still at zero.
Even though everyone had expected it, seeing that Duke Whirlwind had taken over two Zones without fighting personally and without losing a single person was shocking.
On top of that, Duke Whirlwind also publicized the names of the High Mages that joined him.
Not counting Duke Whirlwind himself, Duke Whirlwind now had six High Mages.
That wasn't a powerful army, but it was still more than he had started with.
Two days of war had passed, Duke Whirlwind had conquered two Zones, and instead of his army becoming weaker, it was becoming stronger!
Usually, during a war, both sides would lose soldiers and would become weaker, but Duke Whirlwind was becoming stronger instead of weaker during the war!
And the Skythunder Kingdom?
They had lost around 30 High Mages already.
That was nearly 10% of all the High Mages in the entire Kingdom, and there had even been five Mid High Mages amongst them!
One of the Mid High Mages had even been a Duke!
Not only that, but they had also killed a Late High Mage, Duke Torrent.
A Late High Mage was someone that could be in the Council if they so chose to!
The entire Skythunder Kingdom only had a bit over ten Late High Mages, and that included both Councils!
By now, the True Mages and High Mages started to believe that Duke Whirlwind actually had a shot at winning.
They hadn't believed it up to now. After all, the Council had been their rulers for an eternity, and they had always been the symbols of power.
How could anyone fight against that?
