The Kael Elf Army began retreating slowly amidst a somewhat disheartened atmosphere.
A thousand pack the city, ten thousand fill the fields.
Hundreds of thousands of troops, a vast sea of might occupying an uncountable stretch of land.
Even after the order to retreat had been given, it was quite a task to implement it fully at once.
Not to mention, amid the recent chaos and the crashing meteor, the unsettled Kael Elf Army was thoroughly disorganized.
Thankfully, their routine training and rich battle experience saved them from complete disarray.
Still, when the first group to clear the path for retreat began to move,
thirty minutes had already elapsed since the retreat order was issued.
Seeing this, the Bay Domain Soldiers immediately understood the importance of their regular formation training and assault drills.
With that extra half an hour,
they had made their preparations for battle.
They arranged the supplies needed for field operations.
