Half-step Purgatory

Durin stroked the black cat on the armrest of his chair, sitting on the black leather sofa. Through the glasses perched on his nose, his gaze passed over the long table in front of him and settled on the man kneeling on the carpet:
"I understand, you've made money in Naples, your business has been very successful, and you've led a happy life. You've had those secret police, friends in both the law and the underground, and even the Royal Family speaking on your behalf."
"You don't need a friend like me, I know that. You're afraid of owing me a favor, and you don't want to get involved in troubles."
"But now you come to me and say, 'I beg you, Mr. Durin of the Corleon family, please help me seek justice, so that my life and my family will not suffer and sink into despair.'
Yet, in your eyes, I was nothing more than a second-rate artist involved in movies and music. Even at the brink of death, you still show me such disrespect, not even willing to call me by my title... Keeper of Secrets."

Durin's Diary

Now, Durin has twelve 240mm cannons, four hundred high-order mages, thirteen legendary mages, and more than two hundred sorcerers of the ninth circle.


Two hundred Griffin Knights came as volunteers from Sidney, who originally thought they would be able to provide cover for the mages, but upon arrival, they discovered that Durin's girl Lina was leading over sixty young dragons working for Durin.


Such a blood-stirring opportunity was rare, and youngsters from all Dragonkind had come.


Over thirty thousand Eastern Territory firearm troops, all semi-automatic, with half of them having fought tough battles on the front lines. To use Eleven's words, these guys were born to kill.


Five thousand Great Wilderness Lance soldiers, heavy armor paired with six-meter long pikes, led by a God-chosen Champion. He said, welcome the Knights of the Zhongnan Allied Forces to the challenge, and if any knight could break their defensive line, then they would admit defeat.
