He said, "You might wanna pass down orders to lock the borders and engage with the disciples of the hidden sects at first sight. Doesn't matter how you keep them behind, overwhelm them with numbers if you have to— just do it. As for the right-wing advisor, he probably won't be able to make it back here anytime soon." 

"What happened??" Emily furrowed her brows, and even so, she mentally used her spiritual sense to send down the orders to act as advised. This surprised Leonardo a little as he hadn't expected she would act first and ask later.
