It's ALL LOSE!!!

The night had passed thoroughly, and Yuuka had slept with one of his eyes open, at the early, it was cold but the sun was out early.

Yuuka was ready with his horse, Rargo came to see him off and Yuuka still had essential points to discuss with him, he thought about them before sleeping.

"Do you have any idea about how you will be coordinating with Levi and Vincent on the other side? Communication can be a major weakness in such a situation."

This was one problem Yuuka couldn't leave without getting a good answer about it. It takes a small communication gap to lose a whole war.

"It would be better if I could get us all in one location, maybe at the front because the position is stronger here than at the back of the castle."

"You'll need a message for that. Anyone, you know could cross in broad daylight without getting caught?"

"I hope you'll be able to do so as quickly as possible because they will strike back very soon, you need to be faster."

"I will try my best, Sir."

Nodding in response, Yuuka sat on his horse and was now ready for his journey to the port. He will receive the incoming reinforcements.

--------_-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Asphodel and go on a final hunt for the queen.

After that, they'd conquer the capital and establish their success; it was a matter of time.

Yuuka moved on this horse and set to bring his army while being looked upon by two assassins.

"So, he leaves."

Arthur and Jinx looked upon the whole battlefield from the top of the tower, discussing the situation.

"He stayed longer than, we expected. It isn't playing in our favour overall. There are a lot of problems."

Things weren't going as anticipated.Yuuka's leave was expected quite early then he did. The assassins were locked at the castle until each side did something.

"Your usage of that gun is what is hurting us. You did not need to use the cattle guards are too active for us, to be actively moving."

Jinx criticised Arthur for their current situation, which in many ways was right; his action was the most influential in this situation. He destroyed any chance of Alliance with both Asphodel and Lynx.

Just everything, helping Asphodel, getting them to help, them betraying them, trying to build trust again, he did everything on his own accord and played both sides. Still, in the end, he could go to none of the sides.

"I am just tired of doing nothing, we were stuck here anyway and the gun was just a thing that was lying around not serving any purpose, remember how much trouble was it to bring the gun into this castle."

"And you used it in a way that our position fell apart even more."

"We need to show our strength, with that shot last night, no Asphodel soldier can dream of us playing against us."

"But they aren't on our sides too."

"..."

"What happened? Don't have an answer?"

Arthur didn't reply; he had an answer ready, but he knew it would be useless to talk about stuff like this, and they needed to work on the present to get anything done.

"Anyways, I think the soldiers around us aren't brave enough to do anything by themselves, we need to do it ourselves."

"ourselves?"

"Yes, Lazyass. We will burn the capital from the inside, tomorrow. The soldiers outside will not let that slide and try to invade the castle, that's when we escape. The queen is not our business, she will be losing and Yuuka is out of our hands for now."

Listening to this, Arthur immediately shared his response.

"About the Note, I need to research about it more."

He did not care about burning the capital or letting Yuuka and the queen go, all he wanted was to research that note.

"Our sole priority is getting out of here, We will retreat for now and tell master about the note. If he permits us, we can come back again for now, No."

"...."

Arthur was exploding inside his mind, not only did the secret get to everyone, but he couldn't even research it any more.

"The clouds are coming, even though it feels sunny. It will rain very soon, so we need to burn everything before that."

"Sure...."

After a long while, Yuuka was still riding on his horse, trying to get on the port; he saw an unfamiliar scene.

"A supply carriage?"

A supply carriage moving towards the port was getting highly suspicious. Yuuka moved his horse away from the carriage, still moving towards the port, which was not very far now.

A dark cloud could be seen in the sky afar, it looked like a Nimbus, but Yuuka was extremely wary after seeing that cart.

"I need to get a good view of the port."

He moved a distance ahead, setting his horse on the many tall landslides which appeared. He got off his horse and used his binoculars to look at the port.

"What the hell?!!!!"

His worst fears had become true. The port was covered with cannons firing at the Asphodel ships. Many of Asphodel's ships were broken apart at the scene.

The dark cloud which rose in the sky was no nimbus. It was smoke. Dark smoke clouds rose in the sky as the Queen stood at the port herself

"The final destination of this war is this spot. I'll win this or lose this. It all will be decided here."

The final stage was the battle between Asphodel and Lynx was set where it began.
