Chapter 258: Destroy All The Fortress (part 3)

The words of wisdom resonated with the other leaders, slowly quelling their initial unrest. Everyone become quite, each grappling with their own reservations, yet acknowledging the need to put the safety of their people first.

"As much as I hate to admit it," a seasoned leader spoke, his tone begrudgingly accepting, "we don't have the luxury of time to debate. If Kaelar believes that this is the best way to ensure our survival, then we have no choice but to follow his orders."

As the leaders contemplated the situation, the magnitude of the threat became increasingly clear. The news of the destroyed fortress and the mention of a Soul Strengthening demon's involvement weighed heavily on their minds. The dread of an adversary with such unparalleled power overshadowed their initial grievances.

"We'll have to put our trust in Kaelar's leadership," another leader concluded, his voice resolute. "Our people's lives are at stake."
