Meeting in the Midnight Empire

"Got it. What do you want me to do?" Kexell asked.

"Protect our base here. There are no powerhouses here except for the native allies that we've made of this battlefield. Ultimately, they are not as strong, and their powers are limited, so if your spying result is right, they might do two things."

"First, they would start a hunt to kill you, or second, they would attack Earth's base. Maybe they'd do both, one by one."

"If they destroy the base here, the Phase 1 event will rule us out as the losers and wipe out half of the population of my world."

Almond narrowed his eyes. "That shouldn't happen. I'm also going to give you a spirit device that will connect you to me while I am in the Labyrinth, so if there's any attack, inform me."

"Our priority is keeping ourselves safe. Only then will we be able to get your revenge."
